Subject:
Inspection
Report
No. 50-410/86-52
This refers to the special
team inspection of the Nine Mile Point Unit 2 em-
ployee concerns
about quality assurance
(QA) program effectiveness
in the area
of quality control
(QC) inspections
and the Quality First Program
(Q1P) in-
vestigation of these
concerns.
This inspection
was conducted
on September
8-12,
1986,
and
a
summary of our findings was presented
by Mr. J.
C. Linvilie
to Mr.
W. Donlon and members of your staff at the inspection's
conclusion.
The
inspection
on August 6-28,
1986 by Mr.
R.
Gramm which brought these matters
to
our attention,
and
management
meetings
on August 29,
1986 at the site
and
on
September
4,
1986 in Region I to discuss
them are also
summarized.
Overall the inspection validated your position that the programmatic
concerns
identified in the QlP investigation
have not resulted in hardware deficiencies
or impeded
QA department
personnel
from identifying hardware deficiencies.
In
addition, there is evidence that
QA overchecks
of QC inspection activities
have identified and corrected
hardware deficiencies.
While no violations were identified during this inspection,
several
new pro-
grammatic weaknesses
were identified, in addition to those identified by your
QlP investigation,
which require additional action to improve program effec-
tiveness
.
The weaknesses
are
summarized
in sections
1. 1 and 1.2 of the en-
closed inspection report.
You are requested
to respond to this letter provid-
ing
a description of your actions relative to these
weaknesses.
The response
requested
by this letter is not subject to the clearance
procedures
of the Office of Management
and Budget
as required
by the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1980,
PL 96-511.
We appreciate
your cooperation.
Sincerely,
