Exit Interview The inspection scope and findings were summarized on August 30, 1979 with those persons indicated in Paragraph 1 above.
The inspectors summarized the areas of inspection and their findings were clear in all areas.

Licensee Action on Previous Inspection Findings Not inspected.
4.
Unresolved Items Unresolved items were not identified during this inspection.
5.
Review of the Status of the Preoperational Test Program The inspectors discussed with the test engineer and his staff the status of the test program and numerous specific tests. The licensee provided a draft test schedule covering the time period between August 1, 1979 and the projected fuel loading date of May 19, 1980. This schedule identified the following tentative benchmark dates: a.
Complete Reloading Unit 1 Ice Condenser January 1, 1980 b.
Start Integrated ESF Actuation Test December 3, 1979 c.
Start Hot Functional Test Sequence March 12, 1980 d.
Load Fuel May 19, 1980 The inspectors noted that very few procedures had been approved by the plant's Safety Review Committee and that the status of test packages was not known by any of the management staff.
The engineer specifically in charge of a test was the only person who could comment on the test status, outstanding deficiencies, when the test could resume, and where the test documents were located.

' ,. -2-The licensee has developed a computer generated test punch list which itemizes the areas which need to be cleared up prior to the performance of a section of a specific test. Each entry lists the ou'.anding item, who is responsible for correcting the item, the test number and section affected, the scheduled date for resolution, and the anticipated date for resolution.
'lhe punchlist format had not been reviewed and approved by the site's Safety Review Committee for incorporation into Station Directive 3.2.2.
The inspectors noted that the prompt incorporation of this computer aided tracking system should help the licensee in their test planing activities and requested a copy of an approved punchlist for the regional office.
6.
Review of Plant Construction Status The inspectors made extensive tours of the unit I reactor containment, auxiliary building, and control room to observe housekeeping practices. No items of noncompliance were identified.
In general housekeeping appeared to be adequate, however, large amounts of small debris were found in containment cable trays and on seismic and structural supports. The inspectors further noted that numerous gages, and small instrument lines had been damaged in both the reactor containment and in the auxiliary building. Although neither the damaged equipment nor heavy accumulations of debris were significant by themselves, the need for a licensee program to identify and correct such situations as they develop was stressed. The licensee agreed that additional effort was needed in this area and stated that he would consider instituting a surveillance program to correct this situation.
7.
Review on Previous Inspector Followup Items (Closed) Inspector Followup Item 79-19-02 concerned the lack of admini-strative controls to insure that maintenance activities do not invalidate preoperational tests.
In inspection report 50-369/79-27 paragraph I.3 the inspector reported reviewing revision 2 to Station Directive 3.2.1 " Identifying, Scheduling and Performance of Plant Testing" and finding that a section addressing the retest of systems and components following maintenance activities had been added. During this inspection the inspec-tors contacted test personnel in the test and maintenance groups and verified that the station directive actions have been implemented.
The licensee also informed the inspectors that as soon as possible after the start of 1980 the periodic test program for unit I would be started.
The licensee stated that this program would be started such that some technical-specification items would have their periodic tests performed prior to the required time, which was based on the early performance of a preoperational test. Thus all surveillance tests which require the plant to be shutdown will be current prior to fuel loading.
