Measuring and Test Equipment (M&TE) Program (35750)
The inspector reviewed the licensee's M&TE program to ascertain whether the QA program relating to test and measuring equipment had been
.,
established in accordance with the Quality Assurance Program and 10 CFR 50, Appendix B requirements. The following items were considered during this review: equipment inventory lists, calibration frequencies, and calibration procedures had been established; requirements for calibration status marking recall system for calibration and out of calibration controls had been establ.ished; controls for adding new equipment to inventory lists had been established, and requirements that standards used for calibration are traceable to the National Bureau of Standards.
Implementation of the program was also reviewed.

(4) Selected deviations Reports (DR) for "Out of Tolerance" M&TE.
b.
Results of Inspection (1) The licensee's procedures for the control of measuring and test equipment was BwAP 400-4, Revision 3.
Review of this procedure revealed the following:
(a) The procedure did not address actions be taken for lost or stolen instruments.
(b) There were no instructions descricing action taken when an instrument is deleted from use.
(c) The procedure required a Discrepancy Record (DR) to be initiated when equipment was deficient. The procedure did not indicate that a review of prior calibrations be performed and appropriate corrective action be taken; however review of completed DRs indicated that reviews had been performed.
(d)
In Section 3.c.3.d of Procedure BwAP 400-4 the require-ment for hanging a QA hold tag to deficient equipment is described.
There was no specific requirement restricting use of the deficient equipment until it is recalibrated.
The licensee committed to review the inspector's comments and revise BwAP 400-4 as appropriate.
This is considered an open item pending review of the revised procedure (456/86038-01).
(2) The maintenance department consists of three groups; electrical, mechanical, and instrument and control.
(I&C) BwAP 300-004, Revision 1, was the electrical group's procedure for local control of measuring and test equipment (M&TE).
Review of the mechanical, and instrument and control group's control of M&TE revealed the following:
(a) The mechanical group did not have a procedure like BwAP 300-004 for local control of M&TE. Unlike the electrical group, the M&TE checkout log did not require listing the device on which the M&TE was used.
(b) Similarly, the I&C group did not have a local procedure for the control of M&TE like BWAP 300-004. The I&C group schedules and calibrates instruments with calibration frequencies less than six months. All other M&TE are scheduled and calibrated offsite by the company's system Operational Analysis Department. The I&C group did not have instructions for the local control of instruments calibrated at less than six month intervals.
.
.
The licensee consnitted to review the inspectors coninents and either prepare new procedures for the mechanical and I&C groups or write one procedure for all three groups. This is considered an open item pending review of the new procedure or procedures (456/86038-02).
(3) The inspector reviewed implementation of the M&TE program.
Calibration records for selected equipment were reviewed to verify that instruments were being calibrated at the required frequencies, that DRs were being prepared and properly dispositioned for "out of tolerance equipment," and that equipment was being properly tagged to indicate calibration status. No problems were identified.
During the inspector's review of calibration records for weights used to calibrate the licensee's torque wrench tester, the inspector noted that the original calibration of the weights by the vendor in July 1985 had been rejected by the licensee's system Operational Analysis Department (0AD).
The calibration was rejected because the weights were calibrated to National Bureau of Standards (NBS) acceptance Class F instead of Class C which is a tighter tolerance than Class F.
0AD sent the weights to a metrological service for calibration.
The results of this calibration performed in January 1986, indicated that five weights out of twelve did not meet Class C requirements and varied considerably from the vendor calibration.
The vendor performed a recalibration of the five weights and determined that they met Class C requirements. The vendor had the calibration of the weights verified by the State of Illinois Bureau of Laboratories in March 1986. The recalibrations of the two 'ifty pound weights indicated they were overweight but met Class C require-ments. The recalibration by the vendor identified that the other three weights were substantially different from the metrological service calibrations.
After reviewing the calibration data, the inspector questioned how the licensee could accept the calibrations performed on the seven weights performed by the metrological service that were not returned to the vendor when it appeared that the metrological service calibrations were not accurate. The licensee agreed with the inspectors concern and sent all twelve weights to the state of Illinois Bureau of Laboratories for recalibration. This item appeared to be an isolated incident and does not necessarily have impact on the overall M&TE Program. The affect on calibration of torque wrenches will be evaluated by the inspector after the weights have been recalibrated. This item is considered unresolved pending review of the recalibration data (456/86038-03).
No violations or deviations were identified; however, two open items and one unresolved item were identified.

(3) American National Standard ANSI N 18.7-1976 (ANSI-3.2)
Section 5.2.13.4 requires that measures be provided to control handling, storage and shipping, including cleaning, packaging and preservation of material and equipment in accordance with established instructions, procedures or drawings, to prevent damage, deterioration and loss.
In the area of loss control, the licensee has established an inventory of safety-related items on a two year cycle.
This is a rather long period of time between planned reviews of the inventory and determination of loss. This policy will be reviewed by the licensee to determine if it meets their need for a timely response to this requirement.
Pending the results of this review it will be considered an open item (456/86038-04).
(4) On the subject of shelf-life control the licensee has established a policy that provides for a review of status of items under shelf life control every four months. This is not considered a timely response to this requirement. Some saftey-related items have a procurement lead time of several months, which may not be initiated until shelf-life has expired if their review only includes present status every four months. The licensee indicated that they had previously decided to review the area of spare parts control and will consider including this shelf-life aspect in their review. This is considered an open item pending the results of the review (456/86038-05).
(5) The licensee has established a Level "A" storage area in accordance with their program commitments; however, nothing is stored there. A Level "A" area should be used for items that require special controlled conditions of temperature, humidity and cleanliness in accordance with manufacture's
recommendations or industry practices.
Items classified to Level A storage are those that are exceptionally sensitive to environmental conditions and require special measures for protection from one or more of the following effects:
temperatures outside required limits, sudden temperature changes, humidity and vapors, gravitational (g) forces, physical damage, and airborne contamination (e.g. rain, snow, dust, dirt, salt spray, and fumes).
This classification usually includes special electronic equipment and instrumentation
,
or parts such as printed circuit boards. The licensee presently has these items stored in Level "B" storage which has a wider range of temperature controls, humidity control and exposure
-
to more dust, dirt, fumes, etc., than Level "A" storage.
Pending a licensee review of their policies in this area it will be considered an open item (456/86038-06).
(6) The inspector verified that controls had been established for routine and special handling of safefty-related items including rigs, cranes and hoisting equipment.
No violations or deviations were identified; however, three open items were identified.

and methods had been established to assure that written safety evaluations pursuant to 10 CFR 50.59 will be developed for each test or experiment not described in the FSAR to assure it does not involve an unreviewed safety question or a change in the Technical Specifications.
(2)
10 CFR 50.59 specifies that annually, or at such shorter intervals as may be specified in the license, the licensee shall submit to the NRC a report containing a brief description of such changes, tests, and experiments, including a summary of the safety evaluation of each. The licensee's Technical Specification, Section 6.9.1.4, did not include the regulatory requirement nor was it in any of the administrative procedures presented to the inspector for review during the inspection.
Pending a review by the licensee of the way they will identify and communicate this requirement to the operating staff this is an open item (456/86038-07).
5.
Safety Committee Activity (40301)
The licensee's planned safety committee activity was reviewed to verify that the on-site and off-site safety review committees, or
their equivalents, had been established and would be able to functioi in conformance with technical specifications requirements and any other related commitments in the license application. This inspection did not include a review of the independent safety engineering group required by NUREG-0737. The off-site safety review activities were reviewed at corporate headquarters.

b.
Results of Inspection (1) The inspector reviewed the licensee's program for Safety Committee Activity with reference to requirements in Section 6.5.2 of the Technical Specifications (TS)
for the onsite review and investigative functions.
The following observations were made by the inspector regarding the compatibility of the program, organization and commitments for onsite reviews:
(a) The present organization established the position of station manager, however, the TS refers to the position as a station superintendent.
(b) The TS in Section 6.5.2.a(2) states that the station (manager) superintendent shall approve participants for this (onsite review and investigative) function; however, Administrative Procedure BwAP 1205-1, Revision No. 2, does not provide for approval of participants by the station manager, as a position responsibility.
(c) The TS in Section 6.5.2.f(2) states that " Personnel performing the onsite review and investigative furection shall meet minimum accept-ble levels as described in ANSI N18.1-1971, Sections 4.2 and 4.4; however, neither BwAP 1205-2 nor BwAP 1205-4 include this requirement as an objective or responsibility.
(d) The TS in Section 6.5.2.c states that the technical staff supervisor (who has been appointed as the senior participant for the onsite review and investigative function) make recommendations to the station (manager)
superintendent and have the authority to request the action necessary to ensure compliance with rules, regulations, and procedures when in his opinion such
.__ _ _ _. _
_
_
_

_ - -
~ _ -.
',
-
action is necessary. The station (manager) superintendent shall follow such recommendations, or select a course of action that is more conservative, regarding safe operation of the facility. The administrative procedures reviewed by the inspector do not include this responsibility of the station manager to take the action recommended by the technical staff supervisor acting as the senior participant of the~onsite review and investigative function.
(e) Section 6.5.2.c of the TS also states that "All such disagreements shall be reported immediately to the Division Vice President and General Manager - Nuclear Stations and the Supervisor of the Offsite Review and Investigative Function." The inspector was unable to determine who was actually assigned this responsibility
,
by administrative procedure.
It also appears that the title " Division Vice President and General Manager -
Nuclear Station" is an obsolete title and needs to be corrected.
(f) Administrative Procedure BwAP 1205-3, Revision No. 4, in Section c.2.f does not accurately reflect the equivalent statement in the T.S. which is item 6.5.2.b(10); " Review of unit operations to detect potential hazards to nuclear safety."
(g) Administrative Procedure BwAP 1205-3, Revision No. 4, in Section c.2.k does not accurately reflect the equivalent statement in the TS which is item 6.5.2.b(11); " Review of any accidental, unplanned, or uncontrolled radioactive release...". The procedure also does not state who has
,
the responsibility to make necessary reports to the offsite review and investigative function.
(h) Administrative Procedure BwAP 1205-1, Revision No. 2, and attachment BwAP-1T1, Revision No. 2, " Disciplines for On-Site Review," Item "E", uses the term " Radiation Protection" as referenced in ANSI Standard N18.1; however, the TS uses the term " Radiological Controls" for disciplines required for personnel performing onsite review.
This may be an editorial error but it should be reviewed for consistency by the licensee to national standards (ANSI N18.1).
(1) The above items collectively are considered an open item pending review and resolution by the licensee (456/86038-08).
(2) The inspector reviewed the licensee's offsite review program with reference to the requirements in Section 6.5.1 of the TS for offsite review and investigation program. Minor concerns were identified; however, the licensee corrected all but one prior to the exit meeting at the conclusion of the inspection.

(3) The recipient of issued drawings for work requests or modifications is responsible for controlling and discarding the obsolete copies when work is completed.
(4) A computer printout of the master revision listing is readily available to all employees for verification of the latest revision.
(5) The inspector reviewed selected QA audit reports regarding adequacy of program controls. Although obsolete drawing control assessment was not directly audited, no lack of control problems were identified.
,
(6) Document controls met requirements to the extent that drawings, including changes, were distributed to the location where the prescribed activity was to occur.
In discussions with licensee personnel and at the exit meeting, the inspector expressed concern regarding the lack of positive controls for obsolete documents and suggested serious consideration of a more positive disposition system.
