ENCLOSURE 1 NOTICE OF VIOLATION North Atlantic Energy Service Corporation Docket No. 50-443 Seabrook Station, Unit 1 License No NPF 86 During an NRC inspection conducted during the period June 16 through August 15,1997, I violations of NRC requirements were identified. in accordance with the " General Statement of Policy and Procedures for NRC Enforcement Actions," NUREG.1600, the violations are listed below.
A. Technical Specification 6.7.1.a states, in part, that written procedures as recommended in Appendix A of Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.33, shall be maintained.
Appendix A of RG 1.33 requires emergency and abnormal procedures.
Contrary to the above, between June 27 and July 8,1997, emergency procedure, ES 0.1, Reactor Trip Response, and off normal procedure OS1202.04, Rapid Boration, were not revised (or maintained) to incorporate the new Cycle 6 boron concentrations required to be injected in the event that more than one control rod failed to fully insert during a reactor trip. As a result, the plant operated for 11 days, since the start of Cycle 6 without updated boron values in these procedures.
This is a Severity Level IV Violation (Supplement I).
B. Technical Specification 6.7.5 states,in part, that changes to procedures may be made prior to a Station Qualified Reviewer (SOH) or Station Operation Review Committee (SORC) review provided, the intent was not changed, and the change was approved by two members of the plant management, at least one of whom holds a Senior Operator license.
Contrary to the above, on August 6,1997, the operators changed the lineup of the safety injection system test header from the primary drain tank to the refueling water storage tank without properly changing procedure OS 1005.05, Safety injection System Operation. The procedure change constituted a change in intent and bypassed the SQR or SORC review process.
This is a Severity Level IV Violation (Supplement 1).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, North Atlantic Energy Service Corporation is hereby required to submit a written statement or explanation to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, D.C. 20555, with a copy to the Regional Administrator, Region I, within 30 days of the date of the letter transmitting this Notice of. Violation (Notice). This reply should be clearly marked as a
" Reply to a Notice of Violation" and should include for each violation: (1) the reason for the violation, or, if contested, the basis for disputing the violation, (2) the corrective steps that have been taken and the results achieved, (3) the corrective steps that will be taken to avoid further violations, and (4) the date when full compliance will be achieved.
