Program Areas Inspected This inspection concentrated on selected significant aspects of regulatory requirements and operational QA program conunitments. The inspection was performed by reviewing applicable procedures and records, conducting personnel interviews, and observing work activities, Quality Assuranc_e Progam Annual Review (_35_7_01)

a.

_

The inspector verified that changes to implementing procedures that were made since the previous NRC inspection were in conformance with the Commonwealth Edison Quality Assurance Manual (QAM), the FSAR, and the Technical Specifications.

Reviews were conducted to verify that the changes were promptly identified and properly implemented.

The inspector found that Quad Cities did not have a well documented process to ensure that program level changes are incorporated into implementing procedures. There were several managen~ent personnel involved in the process; however, none were aware of specific policies or proceduras that addressed this activity.

Pending further review, this matter is considered unresolved (254/86010-01; 265/86009-01).

b.

QA/QCAdministration(35_75_11 The inspector reviewed the licensee's quality assurance / quality control (QA/QC) administration program to verify that (1) the QA program documents clearly identify and define those structures, systems, components, parts, materials, items, documents, and

V

.

V activities to which the QA program applies and (2) the licensee periodically reviews the overall effectiveness of the QA program.

The inspector verified that the licensee had recently released the master equipn.ent list (MEL).

It is a compilation of components and structures classified into one or more of the following categories:

(1) safety-related, (2) environmental qualification, (3) ASME Section III, and (4) seismic. The MEL was divided into four sections: (a)

mechanical and electrical equipment, (b) structural items, (c) snubbers, and (d) failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA).

Audits had been performed in this area and the findings u re being appropriately addressed. The inspector also reviewed the applicable policy, procedure, and instruction documents; however, he was unable to identify a specific document that established the program for the periodic review, update, naintenance, control, and distribution of the MEL.

Pending an opportunity to review the policy and program documents that apply to the periodic update and control of the MEL, this matter is considered open (254/86010-02; 265/86009-02).

c.

T_es_ts and_ Experiments (37703)

The inspector reviewed the licensee's tests and experiments program to verify that it conformed with regulatory requirements, commit-ments, ar.d the applicable industry guides and standards.

The inspecto.' verified that a formal method had been established and implemented to handle special plant tests and experiments involving safety-related cosponents, systems, structures, or modes of operation different from those described in the FSAR.

The inspector reviewed the following recent tests and experiments to verify that they were in accordance with the program requirements:

(1)

1-86, Traversing Incore Probe (TIP) Tube connection nuclear check, Unit No. 1 (2)

1-85, Standby Liquid Control System (SBLC) Discharge Piping Two Pump Flow Test, Unit No. 1 (3)

2-86, LPCI Flow Rate Test with Minimum Flow Valves (M0-1001-18 A and B) Failed Open, Unit No. 2.

No violations or deviations were identified.

d.

R_ece_ip_tx_St_o_ rage and Handlini,(38702)

The inspector reviewed the licensee's receipt, storage, and handling of equipment and materials program to verify that it was in conformance with regulatory requirements, licensee conmitments, and industry guides and standards. The inspector concentrated on those aspects of the program that related to controls for acceptable items, non-

.

.

conforming items, and conditional release of items. The inspector verified that the licensee had appropriate controls for each of these areas.

No violations or deviations were identified.

e.

Calibration (56700)

The inspector reviewed the licensee's calibration program to verify that the licensee had developed and implemented a program for the calibration of plant instrumentation.

This inspection emphasized calibration frequencies and completed test documentation.

The inspector verified that (1) the instrunent calibrations and tests were performed within the frequencies specified in tables 4.1-2 and 4.2-1 of the Technical Specification and (2) the calibration records were complete and in accordance with the documentation requirements.

No violations or deviations were identified.

3.

Unresolved Items Unresolved items are matters about which more information is required in order to ascertain whether they are acceptable items, violations, or deviations. An unresolved item disclosed during this inspection is discussed in Section 2.a.

4.

Open Items Open items are matters which have been discussed with the licensee, which will be reviewed further by the inspector, and which involve some action on the part of the NRC or licensee or both. An open item disclosed during the inspection is discussed in Section 2.b.

5.
