This corrective action was outlined in the licensee's report to RII dated June 27, 1985. This item is closed Unresolved Items Unresolved items were not identified during the inspectio . Employee Concern:

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission had been contacted at various times by individuals who have expressed concerns relating to the construction quality control program at this site. As the result of these concerns, the NRC inspectors interviewed various personnel, examined various QC documents,

_

reviewed engineering specification and design details to determine the seriousness of the concern as it relates to safe plant operation. The following concern was examined during this inspection:

Concern: A Discrepancy Report (DR) describing a non conforming condition in the top horizontal wire way of Motor Control Center (MCC)

I Discussion: During the period of March through May 1985, three inspections were performed (see IE Report Nos. 50-424, 425/85-10; 50-424, 425/85-16 and 50-424, 425/85-20) to examine various employee concerns relating to the electrical QC progra This concern was received in that time frame and is similar to others relating to the disposition of DRs. These DRs were examined during the previous listed inspections and violation 50-424, 425/85-16-03. Failure to Disposition Daviations Reports in Accordance With Procedures, was issue The status of this violation is discussed in paragraph 3 of this repor It should be noted that the reason for the DR being written was the manner in which the electrical cables had been installed in the horizontal wire way above MCC 1 ABC. Similar conditions had been identified on MCCs 1ABD, IABB, IBBD, and .1BBB dur(ng the previous inspection The cables were not installed in a neat workmanship manner that provided easy access for inspection of the cable training placement in these MCC While no violations of procedures were found, it was noted that the lack of proper cable training in the MCC wireways made it difficult for the QC inspectors to examine the various cables after they were terminate During the previously noted inspections, discussions were held with the licensee's managers of engineering, quality assurance and quality control to address the conditions that existed in these MCC wireways. As a result the cables were determinated and pulled out of the MCCs so that additional conduits and cable trays could be added above and to the sides of the MCC horizontal raceways to permit a less congested routing of cables into the MCCs. The cable were then reinstalled and reterminate During this inspection, the MCC raceways were examined by the inspector and found to be accessible for cable inspection and identificatio Findings: This concern is substantiated. The DR which was identified by the employee as one similar to a group that had been identified earlier l which resulted in the violation 50-424, 425/85-16-03 being cite Discussions with the concerned employee during this inspection were held to

'

determine if and what further actions were required to alleviate the concern. The inspector was advised that the licensee had taken corrective actions "over and above" that which the person considered adequate to correct the situatio Within the area examined, no violations or deviations were identifie .
