Followup on Previous 1v Ident*fied Inspector Findings (Closed) Unresolved Item (78-26-04):

Resolve conflict between EMP 5.4 and 0AP 018-1.8 and establish uniform method of drawing status identification including drawings affected but not yet revised by DPCs.

Inspector verified that there is now a unifonn method of drawing status identification.

This item is resolved.

(Closed)UnresolvedItem-(78-26-06):

Licensee to assign QA categories and QC levels to procured services for calibration services.

The inspector

,

reviewed Procedures NSOC 4.1, Revision 5 and 4.2, Revision 5 (in final review) and verified that vendors utilized for calibration services must now be on the approved vendors listing.

This item is resolved.

(Closed)UnresolvedItem(79-18-01):

Licensee to develop procedure to define the mechanism for reviewing DPCs.

The inspector verified that Procedure NSOC 3.1, Revision 0. addresses the subject.

This item is resolved.

(Closed) Unresolved Item (79-18-02):

Licensee to develop procedure defining how to do surveillance of contractor's QC. The inspector verified that Procedure NSQC 10.4, Revision 0, now addresses the subject.

This item is resolved.

(Closed) Unresolved Item (79-18-03):

EMPs to be revised to require periodic review of these procedures. The inspector verified that EMP 4.1, Revision 3 now requires biennial review of these procedures.

This item is resolved.

(Closed) Infraction (79-18-04):

The basis for 10 CFR 50.59 reviews to be documented in the OSC meeting minutes.

During this inspection, the design change / modification area was examined and the inspector verified that the basis of the safety evaluations are now included in OSC meeting minutes.

This item is closed.

(0 pen) Infraction (79-18-05):

Station not maintaining as-built drawings showing most recent modifications. The inspector examined C,cawings RM-29A and 35A, RE-9AY, RP-19J and 3BG and verified that they were up-to-date.

Further, the licensee representative stated that all completed Category I DPCs were reviewed to determine what drawings needed updating and that 31 hand revised drawings were provided to the station with an additional 8 to be completed prior to startup. Pending further review of this activity area, this item remains ope *

.

~

.

.

(Closed) Infraction (79-18-06):

T.S. and station procedure ISI 5.0 not updated to reflect SI-HSS-337 (original report had typographically mis-identified this snubber). The inspector verified that ISI 5.0, Revision 3 includes the subject snubber in the surveillance schedule.

Further, the licensee representative stated that a T.S. change is in the process of being submitted to the NRC. Therefore this item is closed.

(Closed) Infraction (79-18-07):

Station engineering performed Category I engineering activities contrary to licensee policy.

During this inspection the inspector verified (on a sample of modification) that the recently established onsite corporate engineering group, corporate based engineers and A/E personnel (when contracted) perform Category I related engineering wo.rk.

Further, a number of revised procedures specifically describe the conduct of this activity. Therefore this item is clased.

(0 pen) Deviation (79-18-08):

Failure of licensee to implement commitments contained in letter C. N. Dunn to B. H. Grier dated November 29, 1978. The inspector verified that station engineering is no longer performing Category I design work (see preceding item) but did not review the status of design change package transmittals.

Pending this review, this item remains open.

(Closed) Unresolved Item (79-18-09):

Documentation of annual review of station office procedures.

The cognizant individual provided the inspector with documentation that indicated the reviews had been accomplished.

This item is resolved.

(0 pen) Deficiency (79-18-10):

Records storage not in accordance with ANSI N45.2.9.

During this inspection the inspector noted that the single copy records that had been stored in the ordinary office environment have been removed to a more suitable area. The target date-for completion of corrective action is not yet due. Therefore, this item remains open.

'

(Closed) Unresolved Item (79-18-11):

DLC engineers not fully aware of their responsibilities as delineated in the EMPs.

During this inspection the inspector interviewed a number of engineers and reviewed their training records (reference Paragraph 6). The inspector had no further questions.

'

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.

The procedures reviewed were:

Calibration Control

.

The inspector examined the control and storage conditions of measuring and test equipment in the. Calibration Lab and selected several instruments to-verify that they were within the calibration cycle.

The -inspector noted and discussed the following discrepancies with licensee representatives:

certain instances where the office history card calibration dates did

--

not agree with the computer print.out dates

.

certain instances where the lab file calibration due dates did not

--

agree with the computer print out dates

!

inability to locate certain instruments at the location designated by

--

the lab file were' a number of poorly stored pressure gauges used for safety related

--

activities

'

~

were all' measuring and test equipment included on the computer print

'

--

out Subsequent to this inspection, the licensee advised the senior resident inspector that a portion of the instrument shop files were erroneously presented as current documents / records during this inspection when in reality they were noncurrent historical data.- The licensee attributed this

'

!

error to the unfamiliarity of the involved employee (escort assigned to the inspector) with this portion of the calibration system.

'

,

~

The resident inspector advised the licensee that this area would be reexamined during a subsequent inspection and the apparent discrepancies would be

given specific attention. The licensee acknowledged the inspector's statement.

,

This item is unresolved pending further review of the calibration and control of measuring and test equipment (50-334/30-08-01).

.

The inspectors toured the Calibration Office and Calibration Lab at the station and ~the engineering offices at both the station and corporate headquarters.

The inspectors observed general conditions and work in-progress.
