Preo erational Testin
Portions of the following tests
were witnessed
by the inspector:
5.4 - Flf Heater Drips and Level Control
23.3 - Preoperational
Testing of Auxiliary and
Fuel Handling

25.6 - Containment
Class

1<hile witnessing
the above testing (in some tests
only parts of the
tests
were being performed or redone),
the inspector verified that
the procedures
were technically adequate;
the latest revisions
were
available
and approved;
the overall crew performance
was adequate
and, in the case of completed tests,
the acceptance criteria were
met.
Administrative controls for design
change
and documentation
were followed.
Ho items of noncompliance
or deviations
were identified.
Test Instrument Calibration
The test instrument calibration program
was
examined
by the in-
spector.
The inspector
found that the master calibration schedule
was being maintained
and that an instrument
usage
log was being
maintained.
A computerized
instrument calibration program has
been
developed
and implemented for planning
and scheduling
these activi-
ties.
Each month the
I8C department
receives
a computer listing of
all instruments
which come due during the month.
The listing also
identifies instruments
which are past due.
In addition, the supervisor receives
an
IBM card for each task on
the list.
This card is prepunched
to identify the'articular task
to which it applies.
llhen the task is actually performed,
the com-
pletion date is written on the card,
and the card is then fed back
into the computer
so that the machine
can update its lists.
No items of noncompliance
or deviations
were identified.
Prep erational
Test Pro
ram Controls
The inspector verified by record review and/or observation that (a)
~ jurisdictional controls were being observed for system turnover,
(b) tagging
was being accomplished
consistent with jurisdictional
controls of the administrative
procedures
and (c) controls were
being observed prior to and subsequent
to testing.
A schedule for
preoperational
testing is being maintained
and is as current
as
possible with the seismic
and security modification work in progress.
Ho items of noncompliance
or deviations
were identified.
Prep erational
Testin
A
The inspector
examined
one
QA and
one
QC audit report of an audit
conducted within the last three months.
The audits were conducted
in accordance
with approved
procedures
and corrective actions for
all discrepancies
had
been taken.
System turnover
from construc-
tion to the startup test group and to operations division was being
conducted
in accordance
with established
procedures
and administrative
controls.
Ho items of'oncompliance
or deviations
were identified.
Plant Staff Review Committee
PSRC
Records of the
PSRC were examined
and discussions
were held with
committee
members.
The
PSRC was found to be functional
and carrying
out its assigned responsibilities
per its charter.
The inspector
noted
some minor discrepancies
in functions
and
activities of the committee
as set forth in the charter
and the
proposed
technical specifications
(TS), e.g.,
the charter calls for
a quorum of the chairman
or his alternate
and'two
members
as stated
in the
FSAR.
The proposed
TS calls for a quorum of the chairman
or
his alternate
and four members.
These differences
were discussed
at the exit interview and
a licensee representative
stated that
these differences
were
known to the committee
and they were hopeful
that the proposed
TS would be changed
before licensing of the
plant.
iso items of noncompliance
or deviations
were identified.

Plant. Tour
The inspector walked through various areas
of the plant on a weekly
basis to observe activities in progress;
to inspect the general
state of cleanliness,
housekeeping
and adherence
to fire protection
rules; to check the proper approval of "Man on the Line, Caution,
Information and Clearance"
tags
on equipment
and to review with
operators
the status of various
systems
in the plant.
The seismic modifications are approximately 75/ complete
and work
continues
in all areas.
The new security building is almost
com-
plete
and the security force is expected
to move in within the next
two weeks.
Housekeeping
in all areas is commensurate
with modifi-
cation work being done in that area.
No items of noncompliance
or deviations
were identified.
