DiffJculty in ach.ieving acceptable ISI test data during performance of tests' ST 6.8., "RHR "A" Pump, Valve, Flow and Unit Cooler Functional", and n , ~ ST _6110, "HPSW Pump and Valve Operability and Flow Rate Test"; and needed - licensee implementation of an acceptable ISI program.

The licensee ISI orogram was evaluated.and determined to be acceptable during combined ~ - ' jnspection 277/80-21 and 278/80-15. -During this inspection (277/81-29, 278/81-33), the inspector reviewed recent test data for ST 6.8 and 6.10 for - both Units 2 and 3 and observed that the data was within acceptable ranges as specified'in the procedures.

Based on the above, this item is closed.

Adtr.inistr'ative Controls for Safety Related Calibrations and Surve111ances

Administrative controls governing performance of safety related calibrations ' and surveillances were inspected to determine conformance with requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, " Quality Assurance Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants..."; Technical Specification Section 6, " Administrative Controls"; Regulatory Guide 1.33-1972, " Quality Assurance Program Requirements (Operation)" and ANSI N18.7, " Administrative Controls for the Operational Phase of Nuclear Power Plants". The following procedures were reviewed: Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Quality Assurance Plan, Volume III, -- Operations Phase, Revision 4, January, 1980; Plant Procedure A-43, Surveillance Testing System, Revision 14, April -- 28, 1980; Plant Procedure A-47, Procedure for Generation of Surveillance Tests, -- Revision 2, April 28, 1980; and, ' _ - f" -- - _ _ _ - _ _ _... _ _ _ _ - _ _ - -. _. -. - - _ - -. - - - - -. - - -.. -

Inspection of Program and Imp _lementation for Surveillance Tests, Calibrations, Calibration Checks, and Instrument Functional Tests: A sampling inspection was' conducted of the program and its imple-a.

mentation for surveillance tests, calibrations, calibration checks, and instrument functional tests required by the Technical Specifications and calibration of plant installed instrumentation which are used to verify satisfactory performance of Technical Specification Surveillance Tests or Inservice Tests. -The program and implementation was inspected for confor. nance to the requirements of the Technical Specifications, Regulatory Guide 1.33-1972, ANSI N18.7-1972, and the appropriate procedures detailed in paragraph 3.

The following areas were verified: -- A master schedule has been established for surveillance and calibration testing; Responsibilities have been assigned for performance of tests and -- to assure that test schedules are satisfied; Methods and responsibilities have been established for review and -- evaluation of data, for reporting deficiencies and failures, and for verification that LCO requirements have been satisfied; -- Applicable system status during component testing was in conformance with Technical Specification limiting condition for operations, ~ where applicable; -- Procedure format provided detailed stepwise instructions in the degree of detail necessary for performing the tests; -- Procedure review and approval were as required by Technical Specifications; -- The technical content of procedures was sufficient to result in satisfactory component tests and Technical Specification li_mits and setpoints were complied with; and -- Test data was adequately and accurately recorded and was within established tolerances.

Data reviewed for tests performed November 20, 1981 and December 18, 1981.

c.

Findings No violations were identified, however, the following unresolved item was identified: The plant installed instruments used to determine adequacy of sur/eil-lance and in-service testing are identified by the licensee as "NRC Commitment Instruments".

These instruments included all instruments for which a commitment to the NRC had been made to perform calibrations.

An individual calibration procedure had been established for each instrumen. ,

The ifcensee st'ated that procedure A-43, " Surveillance Testing System", provided overall administrative controls for these instruments.

The inspector observed the following concerning "NRC Commitment Instru-ments": Procedure A-43 did not refer to them; -- Susquehanna Test Group (STG) data sheets used in calibrations, -- were attached to the calibration procedures but were not considered part of the approved procedure. These data sheets were reviewed by the STG General Foreman but were removed prior to the I&C Engineer review; and, Test data was not always recorded in station surveillance tests.

' -- Based on the above observations and discussions with the licensee, the inspector determined that procedure A-43 needed revision in order to more adequately address "NRC Commitment Instruments". The licensee concurred with the inspector and stated that procedure A-43 would be revised or a new administrative procedure written which would define and/or address the following: (1) "NRC Commitment Instruments"; (2) Use of Susquehanna Test Group (STG) data sheets and their relation-ship to the surveillance test procedure; (3) STG General Foreman review of data and its method of documen-tation; (4) Assurance that essential data is recorded in the test procedure or provision is made for a mechanism by which STG data sheets or copies remain with the procedure; (5) Cognizant engineer review; and, (6) Assurance that new procedures conform to the administrative controls and that existing procedures be revised to conform during periodic reviews or subsequent revisions.

The licensee stated that' A-43 would be revised or a new procedure established by June 30, 1982.

This item is unresolved pending licensee action and subsequent NRC:RI review (277/81-29-01, 227/81-33-01).
