Refueling Procedures The following plant procedures were reviewed by the inspector:
FNP-1-STP-41.1 Source Range Functional Check Channel N-31 (32).
(Including a review by the inspector of the data sheets associated with the execution of this procedure on 3/26-27/79).
FNP-1-STP-18.1 Containment Purge and Exhaust Isolation Test (Including a review of the data sheets associated with execution of this test on 3/25/79).
FNP-0-MP-11.1 Reactor Polar Crane Monthly Check (Including a review of the data sheets associated with the execution of this procedure on 3/10/79).
FNP-0-MP-11.2 Reactor Polar Crane Six Month Check (Including a review of the data sheet associated with the execution of this procedure on 3/10/79).
FNP-0-MP-11.3 Reactor Polar Crane Annual Check (For additional information see paragraph 6 of this report).
FNP-1-STP-36.0 Manipulator Crane Cutoff and Load Test (Including a review of the data sheets associated with the execution of this procedure on 3/25/79).
FP-ALA-R1 Refueling Procedure-The inspector reviewed the Official Test Copy of the Refueling Procedure which was kept in the Shift Supervisor's office in the main control room.
In particular, sections 9.2.12 and 9.2.13 relating to the refueling equipment checkout and operational demonstration were examined to ascertain signoff of the various procedural steps, as appropriate.
At the request of the inspector, the licensee initiated procedure change TCN-1G on 3/29/79 to include the contents of Technical Specifications paragraph 6.2.2.e under the specific responsi-bilities of the Alabama Power Ccmpany senior reactor operator (SRO) licensed Refueling Shift Supervisor.

Crack Detection Inspection of the Containment Polar Crane Hook During the review of FNP-0-MP-11.3, the inspector noted the requirement in paragraph 5.27 of the procedure for annual " magnetic particle or other suitable crack detecting inspection on the main hoist sister hook, and auxiliary hook".
The inspector requested documentary evidence of the hook inspection since at that time the crane had already been used for refueling activities which bv the requirements of paragraph 3.1 of FNP-0-MP-11.3 entailed prior performance of said hook inspection.
At the conclusion of the exit interview, the licensee indicated that they believed the hook inspection had indeed been performed but that they had so far been unsuccessful in contacting the individual from the
" Crane Inspection and Certification Bureau" whose responsibility, they felt, included a crack detection inspection of the book during his September 1978 crane inspection. The licensee agreed to notify the inspector once definitive information became available.
This matter remains unresolved (50-348/79-13-01).
