Licensee Action on Previous Inspection Findings (Closed) Unresolved Item 417/80-14-01 The inspector reviewed the open item file system established to document identified problems. The file is mcintained and updated at the Mississippi Power and Light Company Corporate office.
(0 pen) Violation 416/81-22-02 The inspector reviewed the corrective actions described in itississippi Power and Light Company letter AEU' 81/280 of August 4,1981.
The inspector had attended une of the intensified QA indoctrination training session that was held after the violation was identified.
This training session was conducted by a member of the plant quality assurance staff. This session lasted for approximately two and one-half hours.
It covered in some detail the basis for quality assurance requirements and the Mississippi Power and
-
Light Company policy and implementing procedures.
On August 4, 1981 a General Enployee Training (G.E.T.) course was reviewed for the. incorporation of the QA indoctrination training. The QA session lasted Approximately thirty-five minutes. A considerable amount of the material presented during the intensified QA indoctrination session had been deleted.
The inspector interviewed two attendees of the August 4,1981 G.E.T. course.
One of the individuals had attended both the QA indoctrination training and the QA course.
The other individual had attended only the G.E.T. course.
The individual attending G.E.T. only, was not aware of the QA procedure for hold points, witness points, material deficiencies or procedural problems.
But the individual stated that he would bring any deficiencies or problems to the attention of his supervisor. The former individual was aware of proper QA procedures to be followed except for escalated safety-related concerns to be handled in accordance with company policy. Based upon the above inspection findings it appears that the corrective actions relating to QA indoctrination training as described in !!ississippi Power and Light Company letter AECM 81/280 have not been adequately implemented.
The memorandum from the Plant ihnager concerning the utilization of personnel trained in QA for safety-related work and maintenance of a list of personnel with their QA indoctrination status was reviewed. An audit of six Grand Gulf fluclear Station section supervisions revealed that two super-visors did not maintain personnel and QA indoctrination lists as described in Mississippi Power and Light Company letter AE0181/280. The two supervisors do maintain a list of qualified personnel in these section but does not cover status of all personnel.
This violation remains open.
