(Closed) Unresolved Item (293/78-26-03):

Licensee to establish interim and permanent procedural controls for certification, identification and issuring of "Q" items purchased between 1972-5.

The inspector verified that Temporary Procedure 78-63-1, Review of "Q" Material for Conformance, Revision 1, discussed the reclassification of the subject material.

Quality Assurance Program Review The inspectors reviewed on a sampling basis, the changes made to the below listed Quality Assurance Program implementing procedures since the NRC QA inspection in May, 1979.

The revisions were reviewed for consistency with the licensee's accepted Quality Assurance plan.

These procedures also served as the basis for inspection in the areas discussed within this report.

During the conduct of the inspection, discussions were held with licensee personnel which indicated that they were aware of and were implementing the procedural changes.

Implementation Review l

The inspector reviewed the implementation of selected procedures

,

I to determine that established requirements were being accomplished, l

The results are discussed below:

-.

-.

.

.

(1) NOD Procedure 1.53 established a new requirement in Revision 11 (dated October 23, 1979) for the QC representative to sign every Maintenance Request signifying his review.

The inspector noted that a number of MR's (MR) had not been so signed and determined that these MR's belonged to the early time period of this new procedural requirement.

The licensee representative stated that this early ommission was inadvertant but that presently, all MR's are being reviewed and signed.

The inspector verified that current samples of MR's are being signed and determined that this additional control by QC is now being implemented.

The inspector st:ted that he had no further questions.

(2) The inspector identified that the onsite Records Center copy of NODP 1.53 was Revision 11 rather than 12.

Immediate action was initiated to obtain the later revision.

The inspector determined that this was an isolated instance and stated that he had no further questions.

(3) Section 5 of the QA Manual requires tnat an index of QA Program related procedures be established.

The inspector noted that the Testing and Standards Section, and Nuclear Organization procedures had not yet been included in the index.

Pending review during a subsequent inspection that these procedures are included in the index in a timely fashion, this item is unresolved (293/80-11-01).

No items of noncompliance were identified.

Program Review

_

The documents listed above were reviewed to determine whether administrative controls for design changes / modifications have been established which verify the following:

procedures for control of design changes / modifications

--

have been developed design document control has been established

--

channels of communications between the design organization

--

and the individual responsible for implementation exist design change / modification packages are being converted

--

into plant records methods exist for identifying and reporting those design

--

changes / modifications which are within the scope of 10 CFR 50.59 procedural controls exist for temporary modifications,

--

lifted leads and jumpers responsibilities have been delineated in writing to

--

assure the implementation of the above No items of noncompliance were identified.

However an unresolved item is discussed below.

(1) During the review of modification packages discussed in the following paragraph the inspector noted that a time l

interval existed between the completion of a modification l

and the issuance of Drawing Change Notices for the affected drawings.

The inspector further determined that no established procedures described a formal method whereby the plant operations personnel are alerted or notified in this interim that a particular modification has been implemented.

The licensee stated that this area would be reviewed and appropriate action taken.

Pending review of appropriate licensee action, this item is unresolved (293/80-11-02).

The results are disussed below.

(1) The inspector noted that P&I Drawing M-233 (Control Room Yellow Book) did not have annotated on it the applicable PDCR number (78-44).

The licensee representative stated appropriate action would be taken.

Since this was not a Safety Related drawing the inspector stated that he had no further questions.

(2) The inspector identified that the ape-ture card for P&I Drawing M-241 was annotated that DCN 241-xx-01-1 was applicable.

The inspector determined that this Drawing Change Notice had been incorporated into the current drawing revision, applied to Revision El of the drawing, and an apparent clerical error caused it to be annotated on the current drawing.

The licensee representative stated that appropriate action would be taken to correct this error.wherever it appears.

Pending review of the licensee's action this item is unresolved (293/80-11-03).

(3) The inspector identified that P&ID Aperture Cards M204, 213, 214, 218, 231, 237, (Yellow Book also missing applicable PDCR), 252 and 254 located at the corporate Records Center did not reflect the applicable PDCR's.

The licensee stated that appropriate action would be taken to correct these ommissions.

Pending review of the licensee's action, ti.is item is unresolved (293/80-11-04).

No items of noncompliance were identified.

QAD Audits The inspector reviewed a sample of the audits conducted by the Quality Assurance Department to verify that they were conducted as follows:

in accordance with written checklists / procedures; by trained personnel not having direct responsibilities in the area (s) audited; with audit findings documented and reviewed; with followup actions initiated / completed; and, with general audit conduct in accordance with established schedules, procedures and Technical Specification requirements.

The following audits conducted by QA0 (the audit identified by a * was conducted under the cognizance of the Nuclear Safety Review and Audit Committee) were reviewed.

No items of noncompliance were identified, however an unresolved item is discussed below.

j

(1) During a cursory review of correc.tive action requests the j

inspector noted that lengthy time intervals seemed to exist between the identification of a descrepancy and completion of related corrective action.

The inspector

,

also noted that corrective action requests had been

'

referred to higher management in certain instances.

Typical examples are Deficiency Reports 534 and 546 issued in October, 1979, which requested responses by November 12, 1979.

Extensions for response due dates were granted and responses received December 3, 1979.

These were found unacceptable and a January 1, 1980 memorandum requested further responses by February 11, 1980.

Responses had not been received by March 24, 198,

,

The inspector expressed concern that the corrective action system might be deteriorating and may become untimely and inadequate.

The inspector stated that the corrective action system would be reviewed in detail during a subsequent inspection to determine that it was adequate and timely.

Pending this review this item is unresolved (293/80-11-05).

7.

Plant Tour At various times during the inspection, the inspector toured accessible areas of the Turbine Building, Control Room, Warehouse, Records Vault and Document Control Cantar.

The inspectors also toured the corporate engineering offices and various corporate records management areas.

No items of noncompliance were identified.

8.

Unresolved Items Items about which more information is required to determine acceptability are considered unresolved.

Paragraphs 3.b(3), 5.b(1), 5.d(2) and (3) and 6.b. of this report contain unresolved items.

9.

Exit Interview The inspectors met with the licensee representatives (denoted in paragraph 1) at the corporate offices at the conclusion of the inspection on March 14, 1980.

The purpose, scope and findings of this inspection were presented.
