During the preparation for this surveillance test, the inspector verified that the I&C technicians and the quality control inspector'

had performed the _ procedures'

prerequisites.

The inspector also verified that the surveillance procedure had acceptance criteria and instructions to ensure'that the components were restored to operational status after the surveillance testing was completed.

This was also verified by the Quality Control (QC) inspector and the shift operator.

The Hope Creek Order Request System (HCORS) provides the surveillance work orders that are scheduled by the 1&C group for work and the-due and overdue dates ~ for each surveillance test.

The inspector verified that the i

Incident Reports The inspector reviewed selected incident reports that were attributed to the I&C group. During this incident report review, the inspector deter-mined that the use of a model Simpson 260 Volt-0hm-Milliamp meter (VOM)

may have unnecessarily challenged the plant equipment and safety systems.

The licensee was already awate of th4 concern.

Their onsite Safety Review Group (OSRG) had iden t' fied it as a result of their review of Incident Reports87-007, 87-016, 1-020,87-032, 87-036 and 87-059.

4.

Maintenance Department Personnel Qualification and Training Program The maintenance organization had approximately 1/3 of its permanent I&C surveillance personnel in training during this inspection period.

The permanent staff was supported with contractor personnel which was adequate to perform the Technical Specifications (TS)

surveilla'nce testing requirements. The large number of I&C personnel in training at the same time was due to the licensee's delay in restarting the plant.

Their normal schedule of training does not have this percent of I&C personnel taking training at the same time.

The I&C personnel performing the surveillance testing, witnessed by the inspector, were knowledgeable of the testing procedures they were using.

A review of their training records indicated that they were certified for this type of work.

No violations or deviations were identified.

5.

Quality Assurance The quality assurance personnel are notified on a daily basis the type of safety related surveillance testing and modification work planned.

Selection and assignment of surveillance testing inspections are determined during the morning that the work is to be performed. The NRC inspector reviewed the quality inspection selection of the surveillance test that QA was to witness on May 5-6, 1987. The inspector observed that the quality control inspector verified with the surveillance I&C personnel the following:

Procedure prerequisites were complied with;

Surveillance testing was within the Technical Specifications time

frame; and, Test equipment used was within the calibration dates on the equipment

sticker.
