Organization Structure and Quality Assurance (QA) Personnel The inspector conducted an evaluation of the licensee's Quality Assurance program for the extended construction delay currently in progress. The WNP-1 Preliminary Safety Analysis Report (PSAR), Chapter 17 specifies that WNP-1 shall implement an overall Quality Assurance Program (QA Program) for the design, procurement, construction and operation of Supply System's Nuclear Project No. 1 (WNP-1) in accordance with the requirements of Appendix "B" of 10 CFR 5 Chapter 17.1 describes the licensee's organizational relationships within the Supply System and assigns the authorities and responsibilities for the administration and implementation of the Quality Assurance Progra The inspector verified that the QA program's organizational relationships have been defined and that the authorities and responsibilities have been assigned in accordance with their PSAR, Chapter 1 The Project QA Manager's duty station has been at the site.

3. Audits /Surveillances The inspector conducted an evaluation of the licensee's audit /

surveillances program for the extended construction delay program.

! Quality Assurance Program Procedure QAR-18, Rev. 3, dated December 31, 1982 defines the requirements for a comprehensive system of audits. This

procedure applies to both internal and external audits performed by the

Supply Syste The inspector examined the records of three audits performed by the Supply System staff and one performed by Lumbermens Mutual Casualty Company (Kemper Group).

J Audit Report No.84-288, conducted on April 2 through 9, 1984, was a Corporate Supply System audit of the safety-related activities accomplished at WNP-1 during the extended construction delay. This audit was an evaluation of all applicable quality affecting activities

! implemented during the extended construction delay by the Supply Syste The audit identified three Quality Finding Reports (QFRs), which were

'

deficiencies in the indoctrination and training for several personnel; lack of approval of design sub-contractor registered professional -

) engineer qualifications concerning four individuals; and lack of evidence ,

to substantiate the accuracy of pressure gauges utilized on electrical penetration maintenance. These QFRs were closed at the time of this inspection. Review of the corrective actions for the QFRs taken by the licensee appeared to be responsive and adequat Audit Report No.84-296, conducted on April 16 through 30, 1984, was the Corporate Management Audit of the Supply System ASME "N" Program. Seven deficiencies were :dentified during the audit, and only one was serious enough to warrant a Qaality Finding Report (QFR). QFR No. I was labeled

" failure to document the review of the 1982 Winter Addenda to the ASME Code". The remaining deficiencies were deviations from the requirements, however, they were minor and did not adversely effect the implementation of the ASME "N" Program. The deficiencies and the QFRs were closed at i the time of this inspection. Review of the corrective actions for the

QFRs and deficiencies taken by the licensee appeared to be responsive and adequat ,

Audit Report No.85-323, conducted on February 25 through March 1, 1985,

'

was the corporate licensing and assurance audit of the ASME "N" Quality Assurance Program. The audit was conducted using the detailed checklists 3 developed from the ASME "N" Manual. Each ASME "N" Manual section i audited, included an evaluation of each paragraph in that section, which included examinations of procedures, documents, records, hardware, and I interviews with personnel. Twenty deficiencies were identified during

the audit, most of which were minor and have been correcte Four QFRs

Access Control The inspector reviewed the licensee's construction site security procedures to ensure that they were being met and that control of materials and equipment to prevent unauthorized use or alteration has been established. The licensee's security guard force appeared to be adequate and responsiv No violations or deviations were identified in this are . Protection and Preservation

< The inspector toured the containment and auxiliary buildings to observe the preservation of installed equipment and the Supply Syster's warehouses to observe the preservation of stored equipment. The inspector noted that electrical and control panels were protected under

! plastic. Pumps and motors were covered and lamps or equipment heaters utilized to minimize condensatio Incomplete systems had openings

,

sealed with plastic or wood cover Several system had vapor phase inhibitors applied to minimize corrosion. The warehouses were clean, environmentally controlled, and materials were properly segregated and stored off the ground. When desiccators'were used, the containers were sealed and had humidity indicators. A preventive maintenance program was established for safety-related equipment and activities. A record generation program was established for the preventive maintenance records. The inspector examined 40 maintenance records which varied from pump motor meggering tests, inspecting internals, . rotating pump or motor shafts and respiking (refilling) oil. Records examined included the following safety-related systems: makeup system (MUS) pumps and motors, emergency service water (ESW) pumps' and motors, containment spray pumps and motors, and the emergency diesel generator (EDG) engines and i

'

generators. The licensee has been conducting preventive maintenance within the prescribed scheduled interval A rodent protection program was in progress as evidenced by the rat poison boxes located thruout the plant and several buildings. A fire protective program was evident as evidenced by the fire extinguishers and alarm boxes located within the containment and auxiliary building No violations or deviations were identifie . Nonconforming Activities and Conditions The inspector observed that Supply System has Nonconforming Reports (NCR)

for controlling materials, parts or components which do not conform to requirements in order to prevent their inadvertent use or installatio Supply System procedure QAR-15, Rev. 3, dated December 31, 1982, defines the initiation, segregation, disposition, review and controls for Nonconformance Reports of nonconforming material. The inspector verified that the NCR record generation and controls were as specified in the QAR-15.
