1-2 The board considered the number of ite=s of nonce =pliance in the construction areas to be less than average. However, the number of items (7 Infractions,1 Deficiency) identified in the preoperational area appear to be excessively high for a plant in this sta;;e.

D.
Management Conferences Held During Past Twelve Months On Nove=ber 19, 1979, undersized socket weld proble=s were discussed along with corrective actions to assure that similar problems are identified and corrected. A followup meeting was held January 16, 1980 to assure correc-tive action was underway.
.
On March 26, 1980, a meeting was held to clarify IE positions regarding Part 21 i=ple=eatation and notification require =ents.
E.
Justification of Evaluations of Functional Areas Categorized as Recuiring an Increase in Inspection Frecuencv/ Scope (See evaluation sheet)
A review of the types of nonconfor=ances indicates that QA/QC Progrannatic procedure preparation needs closer surveillance. The licensee's construction and inspection progra=s have been =aintained on schedule. No action other than continuation of the routine program with e=phasis on the QA aspects is considered necessary.
F.
Overall Evaluation The licensee's performance of licensed activities in the construction areas
-
,
i; above average.
Their perfor=ance in the areas of preoperational' test program, procedural adherence, equipment control, is well below average.
Areas identified as requiring corrective actions are the discipline of operations, procedural adherence and procedural adequacy.
Preoperational~
inspection results also indicate the perspective for safety of operations is lacking.
