During the week of January 28 thru February 1,1985, the NRC staff and its consultants from EG&G Idaho Audited the equipment qualification files of River Bend Station. The staff and its consultants audited a total of 12 files that '

contained qualification information for equipment located in a potentially ,

harsh environment. As a result of the audit, the;.following are observations and connents made by the staff and its consultants at an exit interview held at River Bend Station on January 31,1985 (list of attendees attached).

1. A description of the River Bend Station (RBS) maintenance and surveillance -

program for all equipment within the scope of 10 CFR 50.49 must be included in the equipment qualification (EQ) submitta .

2. Some parameters of concern were reviewed but were not documented by the reviewer (e.g. leakage current on conax penetrations). The applicant must review RBS entire EQ program to assure that all parameters of concern are ,.

<

adequately tested, meets the requirements of RBS, and are properly documented i

in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.4 '3. Qualification by similarity is unacceptable if the similarity analyses does not meet the requirements of paragraph (f) of 10 CFR 50.49. The applicant must review the RBS EQ program to identify all equipment qualified by similart$y, and assure that qualification of the identified equipment is in compliance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.49(f).

-2-4. The test reports did not always identify the tested equipment adequately, so the applicability of the test report to plant equipment could not be established in all files audited. The applicant must review the RBS EQ )

program to assure that an auditable link has been established between plant i equipment and tested equipmen The following comments are specific to individual Summary Reference Numbers (SRN) as indicated. However, the applicants must update all files to incorporate these comments where applicabl (SRff-241211-1) Conax Electrical Penetration There is no evidence in the file to indicate that a review of leakage current has been conducted. The applicant committed to acquire leakage current data, review it for acceptability and include it in EQ file (SRN-228212-1) Limitorque Valve Actuator (inside containment)

, Aging calculations did not include abnormal temperature transients due to a loss of off site power. The applicant committed to establish a generic

-

procedure for qualified life determination in this event. This procedure must be included in the updated Environmental Qualification Document (EDQ)

scheduled for submittal to the NRC in February 1985. Applicant must also notify the staff that the greese relief valves on these valve actuators are installed correctl (SRN-228212-2) Limitorque Valve Actuator (outside containment with paramount motors)

The applicant attempted qualification by two methods. The first method

-

,

attempted to establish similarity between the installed paramount motor and a

'

tested motor by another manufacturer. This approach is inadequate to ,

demonstrate similarity. The second method relied on a test report that had ,

insufficient data to show that a paramount motor was actually tested. This was also considered inadequate. The applicant committed to demonstrate proper qualification or replace the actuator ^

(SRN-228218-3) Asco Solenoid Valve During the plant walkdown it was found that the Asco valve inspected may not be installed in accordance with the manufactureres recommendations. Applicant must obtain installation instructions applicable to explosion proof valves and verify proper installatio l l
