documentation review stated, "A list of personnel who are authorized to sign release forms and test data sheets was not available for review." The follow-up or corrective action re.ponse stated, " Generally, the release forms and test documents already provide signature block descrip-tion / requirements for the var;;us groups or departments involved." This response was inadequate to insure only authorized personnel sign release forms and test data sheets during the release or test and the QA review of documentation.
Nonconformance item #11, findings 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 concerning constructor QA and inspection activities had not been res-
.
ponded to as of June 3, 1980.
The above are samples of inadequate responses and/or corrective action, therefore, they are considered to be in noncompliance with the requirements of 10CFR50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, W. H. Zimmer FSAR and the Wm. H. Zimmer m
QA Manual, Section 16, Paragraph 16.4.2 which states in
,
part that significant conditions adverse to quality are reported to management and correctist action is obtained where required.

This is considered to be in noncompliance with the require-ments of 10rFR50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Wm. H. Zimmer FSAR and the Wm. H.

Plant Tours The following items were observed during the frequent tours conducted by the NRC Senior Resident Inspector. All items were acknowledged by the licensee, a.
Weld Rod Control The inspector observed a portable weld rod warmer (IW-2) in 'use in the drywell on June 9,1980 which was not plugged in and the-5-
_
top was removed exposing weld rod. Weld rod control has been
brought to the attention of the licensee for many years and has been cited as items of noncompliance at least 10 times in the last five years, the most current being noncompliance item 50-356/30-07-01. This item is considered in noncompliance with 10CFRLO, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Wm. H.'Zimmer FSAR and KEI's Special Process Procedure Manual, Section 3.3 which requires that portable rod warmers are to be electrically plugged in at all time except during transport to and from the rod shack. (50-358/80-14-03)
b.
Material in Safety-related. Cable Trays During the tour conducted on June 9, 1980, the following was observed in the cable trays:
1.
Light bulbs 2.
Metal pipe 3.
Welders remote rheostat 4.
Conduit support clamp 5.
Wire brush 6.
Concrete chips 7.
Metal pipe fittings 8.
Expansion anchor bolt 9.
Various pieces of metal 10.
Rags 11.
Pieces of wood 12.
Face shield 13.
Paper towels used for liquid dye penetrant checks 14.
Cardboard box As a result of this finding a cable tray cleaning crew has been assigned to clean all cable trays in the Reactor and Auxiliary buildings on a monthly rotating basis.
ABMCC 1A, compartment 12A, had 2 green tags on it from the same c.
preoperational testing release (PT-RH-01). The tag numbers were 7200 and 7207. Tag number 7207 was removed by licensee.
d.
Partially full tube of AWS E7018 weld rod was found in compound Shelterhouse #2 June 2, 1980. The licensee destroyed the weld rod and conducted lectures for all welders concerning the proper control of weld rod. Subsequent to that, item a. of Plant Tours was observed.
ANSUL fire bottle at NW quadrant, ground floor of turbine e.
building, was found which has no inspection tag attached and was not wired to prevent-inadvertant use.
It was removed and replaced with a CO2 fire extinguisher.

Monthly Exit Meeting The inspector met with licensee representatives (denoted in Para-graph 1) at the conclusion of the inspection on June 26, 1980. The inspector summarized the scope and findings of the inspection. The inspector emphasized the necessity of insuring that welders are fully trained in the procedural requirements established for control of weld rod. In the area of cable tray cleanliness, the inspector noted that in latter part of the month a marked improvement could be observed and that the cable tray cleaning crews appeared to be an effective method to insure their cleanliness.
