Unresolved Items.

7.

Unresolved items are matters about which more information is required to determine whether they are acceptable or may involve noncompliance or deviation New unresolved items identified during this inspection are discussed in Paragraph Protection of Components in Containment It was ascertained that this work had not been accomplished ye Discussion with the engineer revealed that he was working closely with construction supervision concerning detailed planning for Engineering Task Evaluation (ETA) 10059, "Protection of Containment Components".

Protection of reactor plant components will be reviewed in detail during a subsequent inspection (281/79-12-02).

No items of noncom- -

pliance or deviations were identifie Tag Out Practices The inspector verified, during interviews with operations group supervisors and the operations group maintenance coordinator that: Coordination exists between construction group engineers and the operators group maintenance coordinator with respect to requests for tag outs and recommended items to be tagge The operations group maintenance coordinators staff has a program to independently review tag out request The shift supervisor was being informed of anticipated interfaces with construction (via the station order book).

No items of noncompliance or deviations were identifie Long-Term Layup The licensee's license amendment submittal, titled Steam Generator Repair Program, Surry Power Station, Unit Nos.! and~, Section says that, as one of the post-shutdown activities, they will place

-3-systems in the appropriate condition for long-term layup (i.e.,

approximately six months).

This commitment is recognized by Section 2.4 of the safety evaluation made by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, dated December 15, 197 Since the present shutdown is of such a duration and encompasses an extent of work not normally encountered by a reactor plant with an operating license, it appears that some special prior programmatic evaluation be given to the conditions to be encountered and a plan for the layup conditions be develope As of the time of the exit interview, the plant management responsible for operating the systems produced no evidence of such an evaluatio The Director-Production Technical Support from corporate headquarters indicated that his engineers had previously performed on evaluatio No results of that evaluation were available to the inspector nor apparently in the hands of plant management during the inspectio Unresolved Item: This matter of placing systems in proper condition for long-term layup is considered an unresolved item pending receipt from the licensee and' evaluation of the material alluded to by the Director-Production Technical Support and pending evaluation of the actual plant conditions in relation to those shown in the above material (281/79-12-01).

Temporary Ventilation

.The inspector reviewed progress toward completion of the temporary containment purge syste This system will be used to maintain the containment at a slight vacuum compared to the outside and to filter contaminents generated during maintenance activities, freeing the permanent system for use in case of shutdown of the operating plan Currently, the permanent system is being used to support Unit 2 maintenanc Construction appeared to be progressing rapidly with completion expected in a matter of day Within this area, no items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
