ROCHESTER GAS AND ELECTRIC CORPORATION e 89 EAST AVENUE, ROCHESTER, N.Y. 14649-0001 ROGER W. KOBER LEC TRIC 44 PRODUCT m aet a CODE 7a 546-2700 December 13, 1985 Mr. Thomas T. Martin, Director Division of Radiation Safety and Safeguards U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Region I 631 Park Avenue King of Prussia, PA 19406 Subject:

I&E Inspection Report No. 85-18 Supplemental Response R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant Docket No. 50-244

Dear Mr. Martin:

In our November 15,.1985 response to the Notice of Violations associated with I&E Inspection Report No. 85-18, we

-

indicated that within 30 days of the date of that response, a plan and schedule would be submitted to. you addressing your concerns with respect to the " broader problem" regarding the QA/QC program as it applies to the calibration program at Ginna Station.

This letter is to confirm to you that a plan and schedule has been developed and is hereby transmitted to you.

Following our response to the subject Inspection Report 85-18, our corporate Quality Assurance Group conducted a review of recent NRC Inspection Reports that addressed similar problems.

Specifically the following inspection reports were identified:

Inspection Report

IR 85-04

The digital multimeters were not

part of a formal program and the

multiamp test set & crimping

'

tool were overdue for calibra-

tion.

IR 85-05

Spent Fuel Pit Rack modification

was not calibrated when used

Mr. Thomas T. Martin, Director

IR 85-10

The CV Temperature Monitoring

system was not part of a formal

program but was used as a

back-up fire detection system.

IR 85-18

Environmental Monitoring

instruments not part of a formal

program.

Based on this review and subsequent concern analysis, it

became evident that the plant's implementation of the Calibration

Program was not satisfactory and this appears to be a contributing

i

factor to your " broader scope" concerns.

In order to address the results of the broader scope concern

analysis, the following actions have been taken and are planned

to be taken.

First, the specific items identified in Inspection

Report 85-04 that did not comply with the Calibration Program

requirements have been corrected.

Second, a review of all "HP"

series procedures that address instrument calibration against the

requirements of ANSI N-18.7 will be conducted and these same

procedures will be revised as necessary.

In concert with this

review, Administrative procedures will be revised to clarify the

-

use of the "HP" series procedures as a calibration procedure, and

to assure that the requirement of ANSI N-18.7 regarding frequency

of calibration, accuracy of calibration as well as overall

responsibility for scheduling calibration are addressed.

Finally, the planned action to prevent recurrence of this

problem is that during Quality Control group's surveillance of

plant activities, instruments being calibrated as well as the

'

instruments utilized to perform the calibrations and/or tests

i

will be verified to be properly addressed in the calibration

program.

These actions will be implemented and completed by February

2, 1986.
