f The licensce's interpretation on reportability of this and refer-
enced* previous occurrences is that a Limiting Condition for opera-tion was not violated, therefore, these occurrences are not con-sidered.as reportable abnormal occurrences.
This item is considered to be unresolved.
(Details, Section III, Paragraph 3)
B.
AO 4-21-74 - Closure of Boric Acid Injection Tank (B1T) Valves ' The abnormal occurrence resulted in an engineered safety systea component failure which could have rendered the system incapable of ! performing its intended safety function.
Valves on the boron . injection tank rgquired to open started to open then went closed.
! The series valves that would remain open until the BIT would empty went closed.
' The valves were recycled open when the stripped light bus was re-instated.
The cause was due to an error in wiring one of the low level bistables to a lighting bus.
Corrective action was taken by the licensee to avert a re-occurrence of this and similar events.

Followun and corrective Actions The licensec's followup and corrective actions were reviewed for one area (Instru=cnt and Control Department) of one audic (last quarter of 1973) with the f ollowing results.
(1) 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVIII requires, in part: "A comprehensive system of planned and periodic audits shall be carried out to verify compliance with all aspects of the quality assurance program and to determine the effectiveness of the program".
QA-7320, CONSOLIDATED EDISON AUDIT PROGRI.M FOR OPERATIONAL NUCLE-\\R FACILITIES, Revision 0 dated October 24. 1973 statec, in Section 5.3.2 h d_f_t Conduct, Item c): "c) Im-plementation of procedures by the station shall be audited in sufficient depth to determine compliance or delineate nonconforr.ance".
. . (a) The Operational Audit of Indian Point Units Non. 1 and 2 for the last quarter of 1973 identified an Item A.c.4 which reads: " Instruments past due on the recall cycle chart ucre found to be in use.
Action responsibility: NPG".
The reaudit of the same item, conducted in September 1974, according to the licensee, states: "Ninctcon instruments past due on recall chart were noc avail-able for examination and not signed out.
Three were identified on the list as 'cannot be located'. It must be assumed that they are in-use out of calibra-tion".
SAO-ll7, CALIBRATION AND CONTROL OF MEASURISG TOOLS, GACES AND Ti'.ST EQUIPMENT FOR USE 0" CLASS "A" NUCLEAR SYSTEM, states on page 2 of 3 that: "Whenever an item is beyond the required calibration duc date, a red tag will be affixed indicatin-g it cannot be used until it has been calibrated".
....
. . . . ,' .i
' . . . . ~33-
. In violation of the quoted sections of both Cri-terion XVIII and QA-7320, the initial audit cad the reaudit failed to verify compliance uith all espects ~ of the quality assurance program and failed to audit in sufficient d:pth to deterninc compliance or delincate nonconforcance in that they both failed to identify the quoted prevision of SAO-ll7 which'was also applier.ble in this area.
As a direct result,of these failures, a violation was writtcn during this inspection as documented in paragraph 6b(2)(a) ef this Details Section.
(b) The Operati'onal Audit of Indian Pofnt Unit Nos. 1 and 2 for the last quarter of 1973, identified another iten, A. c. S which recds : "An instrument history file suitable for trend analysis is not being maintained.
Actica responsibility: NPG".
The reaudit of the same ites, conducted in Septcr.ber 1974, accord *ng to the Id eensec, states: "The status of this item.is unchenged.
This finding is considered open".
PE-AD-8, CALIERATION AND CONTROL OF MEASURING AND - TEST EQUIPMr.NT. Revision 1, with an ef fective date of June 19, 1974 (between tha first audit and the renudit) requires in Sectica 4.3, R _ cords, in part:
".... Each record shall idcutify the iten to "hich it cpplies, the procedure or instruction folleued in performing the calibration if donc in-house, the identity of the one perforning the cal.ibration, and the calibrat ion date (Sce Attachacnt 2 and 2A).
In violation of the quoted (See' (1) above) sections t of both Criterion XVIII and QA-7320, the reaudit failed to verify complianec with an aspect of the quality assurance progrt.m to conf oru with the c:.:acple given in Attachment 2 of the quoted procedure.

. (2) 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVIII requires, in part: ".... Follovup action, including reaudit of deficient areas, shall be taken where indicated".
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI requires, in part: " Measures shall be established to assure that conditions ndverse to quali,, such us failurcs, malfunctions, deficiencien, deviatiens, defective caterini and equip-ment, and nonconformances are promptly identified and corrected".
QA-7320, CO::SOLIDATED EDISON AUDIT FROGRA51 FOR OPERA-TIO"AL NUCLEAR FACILITIES, Revision 0 dated October 24, 1974 states, in Sectica 5.5 Follow-t:p, that: "Reaudits shall be scheduled as necessary to insure that corrective censures have beun effected or rene3ial action initiated".
(a) The nonconfernance item identified as Iten A.c.4 in - the last quarter audit (see 6b(1)(a) above) was also observed by the inspector during this inspection, one year citer the 1:ca was originnily identified.
In addition, the iten was still unresolved and no remedial action had been initiated.
L'hile rec,ognizing the duality of the responsibility to provide follovup and corrective cetions; and while recognizing that two (2) different organizations are involved; the licensee controls both organizations and the failure of either or both organizations to produce the required results is in violation of both the quoted sections of Criteria XVIII and XVI as well as the quoted section of QA-7320.

Desicn Verification 10 CPR 50, Appendix B, criterion III, states in part: "The design control neasures shall provide for verifying or check-ing the adequacy of design, such as by the perf ornance of design reviews, by the use of alternate or simplified calcula-tional rcthods, or by the perfor:suce of a suitable testing.. The verifying or checking process shall be performed program.

"As the Engineerin; Procedure EP-7, Paragraph 3.3.e states: drawings required f or the job are completed, they shall be subjected to a design review and check by an individual of the Design Engineering Section other than the originating designer to chech th:t the design is proper and functional".
This fails to deceribe neasures to implement the requirement.
This is an unresolved item.

The " Periodic Test' Report" which is a scheduling system for planned surveillance tests was also reviewed and compared to Technical Specification rcquirements.
The review resulta indicates that the master schedule (Periodic Test Report) is in accordance with require-ments of the Technical Specification.
The following observations reflect adninistrative control over sur-veillance test procedure approval currently in usa at Indian Point: The cover page contsins the titic, designation of a periedic secuence, frequently for performance and revision notation.
Instructions are included for the subsection to which the procedure is directed.
The procedure contains the designation of the author, space f or revicuer, signature and subsection approval, including date for each.
Designated space is provided f or the on-site review committee SNSC and off-site review committee approval and date.
The procedures contain a control sheet for designating equip-ment needed to run the test with space for equipment serial numbers, title, users initial and date.
A review of th master listing reficces a similar approach is being taken to address Indian Point Unit 3 surveillance test requirements.
It appears that the approach will be in accordance with the same control documentation of Unit 2.

Accumulator Borca Concentration The inspector reviewcd the Watch Foreman Log for Novceber 20, 1974 and the letter dated November 21, 1974 to the Directorate of Regu-intory Operations, Region I froa the licensec.
, . It appears that the licensee is having difficulty in naintaining ! 2000 ppa er g: cater in the accunulators.
The Technical Specification for Unit 2, Reference 3.3, Engineering Safety Features, 3.3. A. l.C, states that four accumulators are to be pressurized to at least 600 peig and each contain a specified ' volume of vnter with a boron concentration of at least 2000 ppm.
I The inspecter's po.Eltica uns that once the boron condition was found to be beloa 2000 ppm the licensee uns outside the Limiting Condition for Operation at that tirao and therefore required to send j EO:I an Abnornal Occurrence report.
The licensce's position was ' ! that cince power reduction was f uitinted af ter the value of less than 2000 : pr. vas ccnfir:ued, no report uss necessary.
This is an unresolved iten.

/.0 4-2-21 Clenure of EIT Valves . , . The abnormal occurrence resulted in an engince rd safety system l componcnt failure which could render the nyctem incapab]e of per- ' forming its it; tended safety function.
Valves on the boren injector tank required to open ctarted te open then uJot closed.
The series i valvcS th.;L would remain open until the DIT was empty vent closed.
The valves operated correctly with respect to the signals received in the lot:ie circuit.
The malfunction was due to a hard wire error tihich apparently had existed sinec initial installation of the EIT level channels.
The as desir,ued systet require:. that these BIT valves open when there is a SI signal and close uhen the BIT is c ptied.
The closure is important to assure protection of the charging pump froa i l becoming air Jocked due to the over presnure en the BIT vhich forces the boric acid into the pump intake line.
The pumps re-inained in creration and had RWST water availabic for insertion at all ti=cs.

v . . -55- . . The wiring was revised to provide power to the valves frcm an in-strument bus and the system was tested to be satisfactory.
The condition that precipitated this occurrence was due to the allowed use of a light bus as back up scurce of electrical power for an inctrument bus.
When an SI signal is received the design of the syrtc= requires that all lighting busses are stripped of power.
When this occurred 2 of the 3 level indicators on the LIT failed' low which required the closure of the BIT Series - parallel valves.
The licensee re-established the lighting bus and the valves cycled open to the correct position.
Re-establishing the lighting bus is normal practice after the strJpping action.
Ref SOR 74-2-77. 6/24/74 The Son indicated. that the reactor was at 100% pouer when a steca line t.P safety injection was received.
The reactor tripped.
The SCR indicates that the BIT valves went cloced for no apparent reason then went c;rn when the 1.ighting Pt.ncis ucre reset.
Upon resetir.n the SI the parallel valves closed as required.
ILC found the BIT tanh icvel transmitter B bistable wired to the lighting bus.
. Ref CM "0:corandom 22 Autust 1974 to Actin: Station Mr. nager fron Task Ypycp _Chntr;55n Subj ect : E port of Task Force Investigation Instrument Power Supplies. This meto indicates that investigations ucro conducted to deterr.ine that all instruments are being fed from their proper source (instrument bus).
The licensee has correctly wired the BIT, refer to 1."..'9.008691, tank level transmitter and has taken corrective action to avert a sinilar occurrence.
This iten is c~onaidered closed.
