Licensee Action on Enforcement Matters (92702)

Items of noncompliance from Inspection Report 50-348/80-14 were reviewed with respect to the licensee's letter dated September 2,1980.

a.

(Closed) Infraction (348/80-14-01): Failure to Provide Definitive or Prompt Corrective Action.

The origin &l problem of improper storage has been corrected. Also, SAER-AP-05, Revision 0, has been written and states that Safety Audit and Engineering Review (SAER) noncompli-ances will be reaudited during each four-month audit.

The inspector reviewed the four-month audit conducted October 5-23, 1981, to verify procedural adherence.

b.

(Closed) Deficiency (348/80-14-02): Failure to Control Consummables.

The maintenance areas for sturage of consummable/expendables not readily controlled has been appropriately identified as "Not for Safety Related Use."

Review Specific ' Action for Closecut of Correction Action Report (CAR) 366.

CAR 366 was closed out to CAR 562 which was closed out by the SAER group. Also, a recent

' SAER design change audit found no deficiencies in the _ areas of Plant Change Notice (PCN) implementation with respect to performance of safety evaluations.

Unresolved Items Unresolved items were not identified during this inspection.

5.

QA Program Annual Review (35701)

References:

(a) Accepted Quality Assurance Program, FSAR Section 17.2, Revision 73 (b) FSAR Section 17.3, Revision 75

.

(c) Operational Quality - Assurance Policy Manual (0QAPM),

Revision 17 The inspector reviewed.these references to verify conformance with the accepted Quality Assurance (QA) Program. Interviews with selected licensee personnel verified that plant personnel understand the significance of plant procedures to the QA Program.

Based on this review, no violations or deviations were identified.

6.

Design, Design Changes, and Modifications (37700)

References:

(a) 00APM, Chapter 3, Design Control, Revision 17 (b)

FNP-0-AP-008, Design Modification Control, Revision 4 (c)

FNP-0-AP-013, Bypass of Safety Functions and Jumper Control, Revision 0 The inspector selected four safety-related PCN's and several of their associated drawings for review as follows:

'

PCN DRAWING-80-733 D-175042, Sh. 2 0-175039, Sh. 4 79-531 D-181774, Sh 2 79-382 D-177355 79-403 D-170119, Sh 1

For the items selected, the inspector verified that documentary evidence was available on site to support the licensee's conformance to design change requirements.

Design inputs encompassing codes, standards, regulatory requirements, and design bases were verified.

Based on thit review, no violations or deviations were identified.

7.

Audits (40704)

References:

(a) 00APM, Chapter 18, Audits, Revision 17 (b) SAER-AP-05, Audit Coverage Planning, Revision 0 (c) SAER-AP-06, Audit Implementation, Revision 3 The inspector reviewed the licensee's audit schedule.

Four recently com-pleted audits were reviewed to verify that they were conducted in accord-ance with written checklists, that the auditors were independent and quali-fled to perform the audit, that identified deficiencies were corrected or are being tracked, that the audited organization responded in writing as required, and that the audit report was distributed as required.

The following are the four audits reviewed:

-

Control of Special Processes, 10/5 - 10/23/81

-

Fire Protection, 7/3 - 8/12/81

-

Maintenance, 6/4 - 7/1/81

-

Material Control Activities, 4/1 - 5/8/81 Based on this review, no violation or deviations were identified.

Non-Licensed Personnel Training (41700)

References:

(a) 00APM, Chapter 19, Training, Revision 17 (b)

FNP-0-AP-45, Training Plan, Revision 2 The inspector determined that this inspection area has been reviewed by the NRC resident inspectors.

No problems have been identified and results of their inspections have been documented in the resident inspector's monthly reports.

9.

Licensed Operator Training (41701)

Reference: FNP-0-AP-45, Training Plan, Revision 2 The inspector determined that this inspection area has been reviewed by the NRC resident inspectors during their routine inspections. No problems have been identified and results of their inspections have been documented in the resident inspector's monthly report.

10.

Surveillance (61700)

References:

(a)

FNP-0-AP-5, Surveillance, Revision 4 (b) FNP-0-AP-11, Control and Calibration of Test. Equipment and Instrumentation The inspector determined that this inspection area has been reviewed by the NRC resident inspectors during their routine inspections. No problems have been identified and results of their inspections are documented in the resident inspector's monthly reports.

11.

Independent Inspection (92706)

a.

Calibration Lab Humidity Control During the closeout review of NRC Inspection Item - 348/80-14-11 and 364/80-16-11, the inspector observed that the 75*4 relative humidity in the calibration lab was higher than the specifications stated in

.

the Fluke Model 343A DC Voltage Calibrator operating instruction manual.

This out-of-specification condition lasted for only two hours and was apparently caused by the maintenance bay doors being open. Although a telephone call to the Fluke Company revealed that the 70".'

limit from the instruction manual was for extended usage of weeks or more, the inspector noted that no control system existed to insure that any mea-suring and test equipment in the lab that was humidity sensitive was always stored and operated under conditions as required by the manu-facturer. The licensee stated that sufficient control would be imple-mented to insure that proper environmental conditions exist for test equipment storage and use.

b.

Material Warehouse Level A Humidity Control Af ter observing the humidity control problem in the calibration lab, the inspector reviewed the s'orage warehouse Level A humidity controls.

FNP-0-AP-23, Storage of Materials, Components and Equipment, Revision 1

.

requires that Level A items shall be stored in an area where the humi-dity is controlled within specified limits. The inspector determined

that a humidity control device was in operation, but no indicator

existed to denote actual humidity in the Level A storage area; thus no assurance of the correct operation of the control device is avail-

able. This lack of humidity assurance is mitigated in that the Level A item storage program at the plant places Level A items in plastic containers with humidity indicators inside the containers.

The licensee stated that a warehouse humidity indicator would be utilized or that site procedures would be modified to reflect the plastic bag-

ging process as the humidity control system.
