Re orted Violation:

10 CFR 50.55(f)(1) requires CPRL to implement the quality assurance program described or referenced in the Preliminary Safety Analysis Report.

Section 1.8.5.5 of the CPRL Quality Assurance Program requires that measures be established to insure that inspections are conducted in accordance with documented instructions, procedures, and approved drawings.

Contrary to the above, on May 10, 1985, the inspector identified at least two instances where electrical field modifications were being performed that did not meet the procedural requirements of construction work procedure "Installation of Seismically Supported Electrical Cable

Trays, Conduit,
Boxes, and Bus Ducts" (WP-203).

In addition, the Electrical Field Modifications were not documented as a Field Change Request/Permanent Waiver (FCR/PW) within 5 days, as required by this procedure.

This is a Severity Level V Violation (Supplement II).

Denial or Admission and Reason for the Violation:

The violation is admitted with the following clarifications:

l.

Electrical Discipline Engineers (Harris Plant Construction Section) through oversight failed to originate required documentation for design change approvals within the specified time span (5 working days).

2.

WP-203 was interpreted by the implementing personnel to allow the processing of field modifications up to, but not including, final inspection and acceptance.

The "authorization to proceed" was considered to be applicable to the inspection effort, as well as the work.

Inspection control was still in effect since the procedure prohibited final inspection acceptance prior to approval of the FCR/PW associated with the modification.

Corrective Ste s Taken and Results Achieved:

The Electrical Field Modification Log has been reviewed for additional discrepancies associated with the requirement to initiate an FCR/PW within five days of the issuance of a modification.

Approximately forty-five '(05) cases were identified where the five-day requirement was not met, though about forty (00) of these had been followed by the issuance of FCR/PW's, prior to the review.

The'emaining ones were resolved with the initiation of FCR/PW's following the review effort. NCR's 85-1293, 85-1530, and 85-1618, and QA Surveillance Report QASC-85-1223 identify the discrepancies found during the review.

Corrective Ste s Taken to Avoid Further Noncom liance:

Electrical Discipline Engineers and Technicians responsible for electrical component installations covered by WP-203 have been reinstructed in the applicable procedural requirements.

Also, WP-203 has been revised to place the initiation and the approval of electrical field modifications under control of the Harris Plant Engineering section.

The revision also requires that Construction Inspection be provided a copy of the modifications, and invokes the approved FCR/PW as a prerequisite to final inspection acceptance.

Date When Full Com liance Was Achieved:

Full compliance was achieved on 3une 28, 1985.
