NOTICE OF VIOLATION Entergy Operations, Inc. Docket Nos. 50-316; 50-368 Arkansas Nuclear One License Nos. DPR-51; NPF-6 :
Units 1 and 2 EA 93-278 i
During an NRC inspection conducted October 21-25,_1993, violations of NRC requirements were identified. In accordance with the " General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C, I the violations are listed below: l 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, states, in part, that ,
measures shall be established to assure that applicable regulatory l requirements and the design basis are correctly translated into e specifications, drawings, procedures, and instructions. :
Unit 1 Safety Analysis Report Section 9.5.2.2 and the Unit's design -!
basis Upper Level Document ULD-1-SYS-04, which specify the design basis I' for the reactor building sump, state in part that the sump is covered with a screen of 0.132 inch by 0.132 inch mesh. These documents also !
state that all of the components in the decay heat removal system, which l are used when the system is in the recirculation mode, are capable of operating in the presence of any debris which may pass through this !
screen without plugging.
Unit 2 Safety Analysis Report Section 6.2.2.2 and the Unit's design i basis Upper Level Document ULD-2-SYS-04, which specify the design basis i for the reactor building sump, state in part that a series of screens l and supports completely covers the sump to prevent floating debris and -
high density particles from entering, and that the inner screen has a maximum diagonal opening of 0.09 inch. ,
I Contrary to the above, as of October 1,1993, the licensee did not j assure that the design basis was correctly translated into specifications, drawings, procedures and instructions. Specifically:
- 1. On October 1, 1993, 22 openings (6 inches in diameter by 3 inches high) in the curb around the Unit I reactor building sump were identified which were not screened and which would have allowed the passage of debris larger than 0.132 inches by 0.132 inches into the reactor building sump.
- 2. On October 1,1993, several openings around conduit penetrations through the Unit I reactor building sump screens, two tears in the screening material, and floor drains that were not screened were i
identified which would have allowed the passage of debris larger than 0.132 inches by 0.132 inches into the reactor building sump.
- 3. On October 22, 1993, several penetrations were identified along the lower structural support of the Unit 2 reactor building sump which bypassed the screens and provided a pathway for debris 9312200125 931214 I gDR ADOCK 05000313 PDR 4

These violations represent a Severity Level III problem (Supplement I).

l Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Entergy Operations, Inc., is ;
! hereby required to submit a written statement or explanation to the U.S. '
l Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, D.C. ;
l 20555 with a copy to the Regional Administrator, Region IV, 611 Ryan Plaza !
l Drive, Suite 400, Arlington, Texas 76011, and a copy to the NRC Resident . ,
l Inspector at Arkansas Nuclear One, within 30 days of the date of the letter i 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 i results achieved, (3) the corrective steps that will be taken to avoid further violations, and (4) the date when full compliance will be ach:eved.

order or a Demand for Information may be' issued to show cause why the license
! should not be modified, suspended, or revoked, or why such other action as may- ;
be proper should not be taken. Where good cause is shown, consideration will l be given to extending the response time. '
Under the authority of Section 182 of the Act, 42 U.S.C. 2232,. this response i shall be submitted under oath or affirmation.
