Quality Assurance (QA) Program Annual Review QA Program Changes The licensee's QA Program for operations is currently described in Amendment 9 of their Topical Report SCE-1-A "Quality Assurance Program."
Two changes to SCE-1-A, Change Notice (CN) Nos. 16 and 18, were recently submitted to and approved by NRC:Region V in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(a).
CN No. 16 'added requirements for control of "conditional use" of certain items prior to completion of the nonconformance dispositio CN No. 18 was added for clarification of the two calibration and control programs established for permanent plant equipment and measuring and test equipmen The inspector discussed these changes with licensee personnel and is satisfied that the significance of these changes and the manner in which they are to be implemented are understoo The inspector reviewed changes to the following implementing procedures and found the changes to be in conformance with the approved QA Program described in Topical Report SCE-1-A:

6/5/87 Organization Audits Scheduling, Planning, Performance, Documentation and Follow-up Engineering and Construction Department Procedure E&C 40-9-17, Revision 6 of May 23, 1986, was also reviewed by the inspecto This procedure contains provisions for informing key licensee personnel of new and existing regulatory requirements. Procedural actions include processing of generic letters, IE Bulletins, regulatory guides, IE Information Notices and proposed NRC regulation In reviewing the management organization charts, the inspector noted that the organization was as specified in the Topical Report but was not consistent with the Technical Specifications. However, the licensee has made a Technical Specification submittal for NRC review and approval that describes the current organizatio QA Program Implementation (1) Receipt, Storage and Handling of Equipment and Materials Program The following implementing procedures were reviewed:
XI-Control and Use of Material Handling Equipment XI-Storage of Quality-Affecting Items XI-Packaging and Preservation Requirements for Storage and Shipment of Quality-Affecting Items XI-Material Maintenance Program
XI-Handling and Storage of Hazardous Materials at the SONGS Mesa Storage Facilities XI-Receiving of Material and Equipment by SONGS Warehouse XI-Control of Items Sent Off Site XV-Nonconforming Material, Parts and Component MSSONGS-W/I-561 Issue and Return of Material Stocked by the SONGS Material Management Organizatio QAP N10.02 Receiving Inspection QAP N10.23 Inspection of Items in Storage These procedures provide the licensee with the necessary administrative controls to assure that items received, stored and subsequently issued are in conformance with FSAR commitment For receipt of safety-related items, this includes requirements for the following activities:
conducting receipt inspections, identification of vendors allowed to supply material supported by a "quality certification,"
conformance with original procurement documents, inspection of damaged materials, and retention of receipt inspection activities. Controls also addressed disposition of items received such as tagging or marking for storage. Items may be conditionally released provided the required justification and authorization is obtained. Administrative controls covered both onsite and offsite storage to assure proper levels of storage, identification of items, access control, maintenance and care of items in storage including shelf life, periodic inspections, and assigned responsibilities for implementation of these storage control Procedures for routine and special handling of materials were included in this program reviewed by the inspecto The inspector selected three items stored in the warehouse that were identified by receiving to be in nonconformance. The three items, identified as DDN No. 295A, 1556-86 and 1244-86, were properly marked and segregated in accordance with QA Program procedures. While in the receiving area, the inspector
.
selected from the receiving record files four items that were recently received, and was.ableto verify that receipt inspections were conducted, items were properly dispositioned, and storage of the items were all in accordance with the procedural requirements. The items selected were identified as follows: P.O. Number Item Description 6C106007 Bronze Adjusting Packing Ring 6AO27006 Johnston Stainless Steel Welding Rod 8AO35901 Westinghouse Lubricant 8B094094 GE-Circuit Board In order to determine if items stored in the warehouse are properly identified, the inspector singled out 5,000 pounds of weld rod, a 1/3 HP motor, and one valve bonnet assembly. In each instance, the item was tagged and marked to allow traceability to the purchase order, receipt records.and quality certification document (2) Audit Program The inspector reviewed changes to the licensee's QA Program relating to the audits of Units 1, 2 and 3 activities to assure that the audit program.was in conformance with the regulatory requirements, licensee's commitments and industry standard The audit program was looked at previously in Inspection Report Nos. 50-206/86-05, 50-361/86-06 and 50-362/86-06; there have been no major program changes since this inspection repor The Topical Quality Assurance Manual (TQAM) sets forth the policies and general requirements for establishing and implementing the licensee's QA Program. The scope of the audit program is defined in TQAM Chapter 1E, "Audits"; the audit program defined in this document is consistent with Section 6 of the Technical Specifications and Section 17 of the FSA Other QA procedures applicable to the audit program are contained in the Quality Assurance Organization Reference Procedure Manual (QAP). The following QAP procedures changes were reviewed by the inspector:
Procedure Revision Effective Number Title Number Date N18.04 Quality Assurance Organization
6/5/87 Audits -
Scheduling,.Planning, Performance, Documentation and Follow-up N2.19 Qualification of Quality Assurance
6/19/87 Organization Auditors The changes to the procedures were discussed with the license The procedure changes to N18.04 were determined to be a reduction in the amount of words in the procedure that would be applicable to a plant during construction or startup., The
intent of the procedure was not changed. Procedure N2.19 superseded procedure N18.05. This new procedure was substantially the same, but with more specific criteria for determining the qualifications of auditor The following procedures mentioned in the previous inspection report were not changed:
Procedure Revision Effective Number Title Number Date N18.07 Participation of Technical
5/6/85 Personnel from Other Departments on Audit Teams N18.11 Independent Audits
6/19/85 N18.13 Technical Specification Audits
2/3/86 by the Quality Assurance Organization By reviewing the above QA Program Procedures N18.04 and N2.19, the inspector verified that the responsibilities were assigned in writing for overall management of the audit program including:
(a) Determining the adequacy of the qualifications of audit personne (b) Ensuring corrective actions taken for deficiencies identified during audit (c) Determining the independence of audit personne (d) Determining when reaudits are require (e) Issuance of audit reports to managemen (f) Periodic reviews of the audit program to determine its status and adequac (g) Preparation of long-range audit plan The audit program also requires a response from the audited organization within 30 days. Preliminary findings are discussed with the audited organization during an exit interview. The audited organization has several days to provide additional information to any findings, before the findings are tracked by the license The following procedures used by the licensee to monitor conditions adverse to quality (in accordance with Criterion XVI of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B) were reviewed by the inspector:

N16.06 Corrective Action Monitoring
1/2/87 No problems with the corrective action monitoring were identifie Distribution requirements for audit reports and corrective actions responses have been defined in the QAP. Checklists are used in the performance of all audit The licensee did an administrative change to the audit progra Previously, the QA/QC organizations were in charge of reviewing Section XI and in charge of tracking Nonconformance Reports (NCRs). The station technical is now in charge of tracking NCRs, and operation maintenance is in charge of reviewing Section X The QA organization is now doing more field investigation No violations or deviations were identifie (3) Audit Program Implementation The inspector examined the licensee's activities in the implementation of the audit program. The inspector examined completed site, technical specification, and vendor audits performed by the license The purpose of this review was to determine if the licensee is using qualified personnel to conduct these audits and whether these audits are in conformance with regulatory requirements, licensee commitments, and industry guides and standard When the licensee identifies problems in the area audited, they will issue a Corrective Action Request (CAR) for procedural or programmatic problems, and a Problem Review Report (PRR) for other noted deficiencies. The amount of CARs outstanding has, been approximately 30 for the past 2 quarter The implementation of the audit program was also looked at previously in Inspection Report Nos. 50-206/86-41, 50-361/86-30 and 50-361/86-1 (a) 'Site Audits The following site audits were reviewed by the inspector for completeness, and types of problems identified (PRRs or CARs):
Problems Audit Number Title Identified SCES-024-86
"Environmental Qualification 1 CAR, 1 PRR of Equip."
SCES-069-86

"Vendor/Supplier Data/
None Control and Implementation of Monitoring Program" The qualifications of the auditors were reviewed on a selected basis and found to be acceptable. The audits were performed in accordance with the controlling procedure and any problems identified were being tracked to completio (b) Technical Specification Audits The Technical Specification audits are performed to determine the implementation of the plants Technical Specification These audits were looked at in the inspection report listed above. The inspector evaluated the pre-audit work in progress'for several different Technical Specification audit The pre-audit planning for these audits was found to be acceptabl The inspector also reviewed several completed Technical Specification audits of safety system The following Technical Specification audits were reviewed by the inspector:

4.1.9, 4.1.10, 4.11, 4.13 None The qualifications of the auditors were reviewed. The audit was performed in accordance with the controlling procedure, and the audits received appropriate review The audit SCES-040-86, which was a review of plant systems for Units 2 and 3, identified a programmatic deficiency on a surveillance of a safety system. The deficiency was that no formal program exists to review operational data or visually inspect safety piping systems to determine the snubbers needing testing. The station is now doing a more formalized review of their snubber.testing. The actions taken seem appropriate. The inspector inquired as to whether the acceptance criteria for hydraulic snubber lock-up velocity compensates for the affect of temperature at which the functional test is performed. By reviewing in-place test procedure PD 18393 and test results, the inspector was able to verify that the acceptance criteria satisfactory addressed temperature affects to assure desired maximum lock-up values at operating temperatur (c) Vendor Audits The licensee performs audits of vendors to assure that the vendor has an effective QA Program. If the licensee approves the vendors QA Program, the vendor is put on the approved supplier lis The following vendor audits were reviewed by the inspector:
TDI-1-86
"Transamerica Delaval, Inc."
o LMTA-1-86
"Limitorque Corporation" The audits of these vendors were chosen by the inspector due to problems identified in the industry with respect to these vendors. The audits were done with qualified personnel in accordance with a preplanned audit of the vendors. No corrective action requests were identified in the audit of Limitorque, but five CARs were identified in the Transamerica Delaval audi The inspector was informed that the QA organization was not doing backshift work on a general basis. Backshift observations are being left to the QC organization. Since the majority of work is occurring on the day shift, and there is QC onsite during the backshift, this seems acceptabl No violations or deviations were identifie. Exit Meeting The inspectors met with licensee management representatives denoted in Paragraph 1 on June 19, 198 The scope of the inspection and the inspectors' findings, as noted in this report, were discussed. At this meeting, the inspectors also requested additional information concerning snubber testing, and informed the licensee that this material would be reviewed in the region and the findings documented in this report.
