Description

On October 3, 2012, the NRC issued a Notice of Violation associated with a White Significance Determination Process (SDP) finding and a Severity Level III violation to Carolina Power and Light Company (CP&L). The White Finding was issued for the failure of Shearon Harris personnel to maintain adequate emergency facilities and equipment to support emergency response, as required by 10 CFR 50.54(q) and 10 CFR 50.47(b)(8), and the Severity Level III violation was issued for CP&L's failure to make an eight hour report of the occurrence of a major loss of emergency assessment capability, as required by 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(xiii). Specifically, between August 4, 2009, and November 9, 2011, CP&L failed to maintain adequate emergency facilities and equipment to support emergency response when the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) normal and emergency ventilation system was in a degraded state and/or removed from service, for extended periods of time. CP&L failed to report this condition as required between August 4, 2009, and November 9, 2011.
