NOTICE OF VIOLATION Illinois Power Company License No. NPF-55 4

As a result of the inspection conducted on September 8 through October 6, 1986, and in accordance with the " General Policy and Procedures for NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C (1985), the following violations were identified:

1. 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, as implemented by the Illinois 1

Power (IP) Company Operational Quality Assurance Manual requires

, that each IP organization have a documented corrective action system which assures that conditions adverse to quality or which render quality indeterminate are promptly identified, reported to appropriate levels of management, analyzed for causes, corrected to preclude recurrences, and followed up to verify and closecut corrective actions in a timely manner.

Contrary to the above requirements, corrective actions taken in response to IPQA Audit Finding 038-86-10-ID3 and IPQA Surveillance Finding M-86-005 were not effective in that:

S

a. On September 5,1986, a NRC inspection identified two maintenance work requests (MWRs) (C-24375 and C-25145) that had not received a required post maintenance testing (PMT) evaluation. A subsequent licensee review identified 400 additional MWRs that had not received the required PMT evaluation.

b. On September 18, 1986, a NRC followup inspection identified one MWR (C-06503) that had not received a required PMT evaluation. A subsequent licensee review identified 578 additional MWRs that had not received the required PMT evaluation.

c. On September 26, 1986, a NRC followup inspection identified one i

MWR (C-05302) that had not received the required PMT evaluation.

All of the above inspection findings were identified after closure of IPQA Audit Finding Q-38-86-10-ID3 (closed August 1, 1986) and closure of IPQA Surveillance Finding M-86-005 (closed July 29,1986). Both of the IPQA findings identified deficiencies in the programmatic controls established to evaluate and process maintenance work requests

, (MWRs) for post maintenance testing requirements.

This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement II).

2. 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, as implemented by the IP Company Operational Quality Assurance Manual requires that each IP organization is responsible for using formal instructions, procedures, drawings, and related material for performing activities affecting the quality or functions of applicable systems, structures, or components.

Notice of Violation 2 Procedure CPS No. 8101.01, Instrument Calibration, paragraph 8.1.5, required a pre-calibration inspection of the instrument for loose process fittings, electrical fittings, parts, and mounting hardware.

Procedure CPS No. 1019.01, Housekeeping and Cleanliness Control, establishes requirements for personnel access and material control in plant areas by zone designator.

Contrary to the above requirements, activities affecting quality were not performed in accordance with procedural requirements as follows:

a. On' August 29, 1986, a NRC walkdown of the Shutdown Service Water system identified that a Barton differential pressure gage was installed with the low side process vent plugged (capped). The low side vent was required to be vented to atmosphere by design.

This condition and four other similar installations had not been identified by the licensee during pre-calibration inspections of the instruments,

b. On September 26, 1986, the NRC resident inspector observed numerous violations of the requirements for personnel access and material control in a cleanliness zone II area established on the 828' elevation of the containment building. Examples of the violations include; failure to wear required clothing, failure to tie off small tools and equipment and failure to implement requirements of the tool and material control log.

This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement II).

Consequently, no reply.to the violation is required and we have no further questions regarding this matter. With respect to Item 1, pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, you are required to submit to this office within thirty days of the date of this Notice a written statement or explanation in reply, including for each violation: (1) corrective action taken and the results achieved; (2) corrective action to be taken to avoid further violations; and (3) the date when full compliance will be achieved.
