On March 9, 2015, the NRC issued a Notice of Violation and Proposed Imposition of Civil Penalty in the amount of $70,000 to Tennessee Valley Authority for a Severity Level III Problem involving two violations. The first violation involved the failure to conduct compensatory fire watches as required by TVA corporate procedures and 10 CFR 50.48. Specifically, on multiple occasions during October and November 2012, hourly fire watches required as compensatory measures for fire protection equipment that was out of service in the Emergency Diesel Generator Building were not performed. In addition, the designated fire watch foremen willfully failed to have proper oversight of fire watch activities. The second violation involved the failure to maintain complete and accurate records as required by 10 CFR 50.9(a). Specifically, on multiple occasions during the same time frame, fire watch patrol records were falsified when individuals initialed that fire watches were completed when in fact, these fire watches had not been performed.
