4 ATTACHMENTS Re:
Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 Docket Nos. 50-250, 50-251 IE Inspection Report 81-16 FINDING A:
Technical Specification 6.8.1.
requires that written procedures be impl emented.
Administrative procedure 11550.1, " Health Physics Procedure HP-1" requires that a Radiation Work Permit or direct Health Physics coveragg be provided for work on equipment contaminated in excess of 10,000 dpm/100 cm.
Contrary to the above, r.either direct coverage nor a Radiation Work Pennit was provided for removal of the Unig 3 liquid release line which was internally contaminated to 20,000 dpm/100 cm for about 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> on June 3, 1981.
RESPONSE A:
(A-1)
FPL concurs with the finding.
(A-2)
This incident happened due to construction shift relief and Health l
Physics relief occurring when a portion of Unit 3 liquid release line was being moved.
The HP technician left the arer, before being relieved.
(A-3)
As corrective action, a Radiation Work Permit was issued to cover the work required.
l (A-4)
As corrective action to avoid further problems, the Health Physics l
Shift Supervisor reinstructed the HP Technician involved concerning l
our requirements whenever direct coverage is provided and also the importance of maintaining proper surveillance of the assigned work i
area.
(A-5)
Full compliance was achieved July 31, 1981.
FINDING B:
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V and the accepted QA Program Technical Quality Requirement 5.0 requires that activities affecting quality be l
prescribed by documented procedures and shall be accomplished in accordance l
with these procedures.
Administrative Procedure 0190.72, Receipt Inspection, Identification and Control of Nuclear Sa fety-Rel a ted and Fire Protection Parts, Materials and Components, requires issuance and attachment of Quality Control (QC) tags to acceptable controlled material until installation in the plant system.
Contrary to the above, A.P. 0190.72 was not followed in that during the inspection period the information on QC tags attached to
.. al items including 3/4 inch T-78 globe valves and Pacific Scientific Company mechanical snubbers was incomplete and erroreus.
This lack of information disabled the traceability system of the items to purchase order, receipt and procurement documents.

RESPONSE 8:
l (B-1)
FPL' concurs with the finding.
(B-2)
We have not been able to determine the reason for the discrepancies on the tags.
The material had almost certainly been properly tagged at time of receipt as evidenced by receipt inspection reports with all required information noted.
-Tags may have been lost or j.
prematurely removed, but this was impossible to verify.
(B-3)
As corrective action all material with defective QC tags was removed from the QC Storage Area.
I (B-4)
As corrective action in order to avoid further problems, the Plant i
Manager - Nuclear issued a letter directing plant personnel to properly handle QC tags.
(B-5)
Full compliance was achieved by August 4 1981.
