This refers *to the routine safety inspection conducted by Messrs. K. R. Baker,
R. D. Schulz, M. L. Gildner, M. M. Holzmer, J. M. Peschel, and J. A. Grobe of this
office on February*23-27 and March 9-13, 1981, of activities at Quad-Cities Nuclear
Power Station, Units 1 and 2, authorized by NRC Operating Licenses No. DPR-29 and
No. DPR-30 and to the discussion of our findings with Mr. N. J. Kalivianakis and
his staff at the conclusion of the inspection.
This also refers to subsequent
discussions with Mr. K. L. Graesser on March 17, 1981, concerning the implementa-
tion of ANSI N18.7-1976 at the Zion Station authorized by NRC Operating Licenses
No. DPR-39 and No. DPR-48 and with Mr. R. M. Ragan on March 18, 1981, concerning
the implementation of ANSI N18.7-1976 at the Dresden Station authorized by NRC
'
Operating Licenses No. DRP-19 and DPR-25:
This inspection was an indepth inspection to review the effectiveness and imple-
mentation of your QA program in selected areas for both past and ongoing activities
as discussed in the enclosed copy of our inspection report which identifies areas
examined during the inspection.
Within these areas, the inspection consisted of
a selective examination of procedures and representative-records, observations,
and interviews with personnel.
During this inspection, certain of your activities appeared to be in noncompliance
with NRC requirements, as specified in enclosed Appendix A.
A written response,
submitted under oath or affirmation, is required.
During the inspection at the Quad-Cities Station, we noted that an Inservice
Testing Program for pumps and valves had not been impl~mented in compliance with
Subsequent discussions with your staff and NRR revealed that
there had been a breakdown in communication between NRR and Commonwealth Edison
Company regarding the requirements to implement a program even though it had not
received final NRC approval.
Subsequently, in a lfitter to Mr. R. Ippolito,
Chief Operating Reactors Branch 2, Division of Operating Reactors from
Mr. R. Janecek of your staff, dated March 31, 1981, you committed to implement
an Inservice Testing Program for pumps and valves consisting of the existing
technical specification requirement or the proposed program, whichever is more
restrictive.
We will inspect the implementation of this program, as described
in the March 31, 1981 letter, during subsequent inspections.
