## Description

On May 12, 2010, a Notice of Violation (NOV) was issued to Southern Nuclear Operating Company, Inc. for a violation associated with a White Significance Determination Finding as a result of inspections at the Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant. The White finding involved the licensee's failure to meet Technical Specifications. From 1988 to 2009 the licensee failed to establish and perform preventative maintenance activities on components having a specific lifetime. This resulted in a capacitor failure on a circuit card, during a surveillance test of an emergency diesel generator (EDG) and caused the EDG to be declared inoperable.
