Licensse representatives stated that various manuf acturers were soliciteu for recommendations and a general review of industry practices was conducted.

Based on these the Electric Production Department (EPD) has decided to follow the guidelines of publication " Materials with Limited Shelf Life",

by Garlock Corporation.

Implementing procedures for EPD and the Stores Department, applicable to both the Limerick and Peach Bottom Stations, are in preparation.

This item remains open pending further review of licensee actions as to adequacy and timeliness.

(Closed) Unresolved Item (277/80-31-02; 278/80-23-02):

Review The inspector reviewed the changes made to the quality assurance procedures subsequent to the last NRC QA inspection conducted during October, 1980. These procedures are listed above and asterisked in other paragraphs of this report. The revisicr.s were reviewed to determine if they were consistent with the licensee's accepted Quality Assurance Program (FSAR Section '17.2).

Implementation

'

The inspector reviewed modification packages 80-11 (389), Replace-Core Spray Piping with Another Type of Stainless Steel; and, 81-46 (610), Replace Time Delay Relays in Control Circuits of 4 KV Busses, Diesel Generators, and Recirculating MG Sets to verify that:

-- 10 CFR 50.59 reviews were performed and documented;

-- Design changes / modifications were accomplished in accordance with the procedures;

-- the design change /modificaticn package contained the necessary

~ instructions / records with respect to the work;

-- Acceptance te: ting was accomplished and deemed satisfactory; and,

-- Procedures and drawings required to be changed as a result of the design change /medification were updated or generated (a sample).

d.

Findings A number of Maintenance Work Orders (MRFs) under which the work.was done were located by the licensee with some difficulty.

Post modifi-cation testing records for the E4 Diesel Generator and E43 4KV Bus were not located until after the conclusion of the inspection, at which time they were reviewed by the Senior Resident Inspector. The above procedures.and applicable procedures in paragraph 4.a. did not clearly describe what documents / records are to be provided with or remain in a modification package (s).

Further, the flow of documents, their identity and retention location (s) were not addressed.

IE combined Inspection Report 50-277/81-12; 50-278/81-13 identified concerns in the document / records area to which the licensee must respond.

Licensee auditors (see paragraph 5) had previously identified extensive problems corporate wide in the records system and applicable procedures.

Licensee auditors also identified incorrect execution and completion of MRFs, and corrective action is being followed up.

Discussions with licensee representatives indicated that an extensive effort has been mounted to rectify the records problem since it was identified by the QAD audit.

These examples of previously identified unacceptable conditions were discussed with the licensee. The following points were specifically discussed with the licensee.

-- written controls detailing the contant of the modification package at critical stages

-- written controls describing the flow of the modification package after it arrives onsite

-- written controls addressing documents associated with modification work and their flowpath/ retention

A licensee. representative stated that the inspector's comments would be considered during the. revision.of procedure A-14 whict. is in an initial stage of revision.

Pending review of licensee action with respect to clarifying modification document / record control, this item is unresolved (277/81-23-01; 278/81-25-01).

No items of noncompliance were identified.
