RESPONSES TO INFRACTIONS LISTED IN I.E. INSPECTION REPORT NOS. *so-280/79-08
& 50-281/79-09 A.
NRC COHHENT:
B.
As required by 10 CFR SO, Appendix B, Criterion VIII, "Measures shall be estab-lished for the identification and control of materials, parts, and components,
- .. including partially fabricated assemblies.
These measures shall assure that identification of the item is maintained by heat number, part number, serial number, or other appropriate means, either on the item or on records traceable to the item, as required throughout fabrication, erection, installation, and use of the item.
These identification and control measures shall be designed to prevent the use of incorrect or defective material, parts* and components".
The accepted Quality Assurance Program (FSAR 17.2), Section 17.2.8 states in part,
" *** Replacement materials, parts and components including partially fabricated subassemblies, are adequately and.properly identified to allow control and traceability to pertinent qualify control records **** ".
Contrary to the ~eve, large amounts of uncontrolled and unidentified materials, components, and parts were stored in the level B warehouse where the majority of the power plant's replacement materials, components and parts for safety-related systems are stored.
These.uncontrolled and unidentif_ied materials,. components and parts were not part of the warehouse inventory stock and could allow the inadvertent introduction into safety-related systems without proper identification, qualification and traceability.
RESPONSE
The item as stated is correct.
- 1. Corrective Steps which have been taken and results achieved.
All materials constituting the "uncoutrolled and unidentified" above have been inventoried and placed under warehouse control.
- 2.
- Corrective steps which will be ;:aken to avoid further non-compliance:
Any t:1.aterials which are placed in the warehouse will be properly identified and under warehouse control.
- 3.
The date when full compliance will be achieved:
Full compliance has been achieved.

RESPONSES TO INFRACTIONS (CONTINUED)
A.
NRC COMUENT:
As required by 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVII, " *** records shall be maintained to furnish evidence of activities affecting quality *** ". The accepted Quality Assurance Program (FSAR Chapter 17.2), Section 17.2.17 states in part, "These records include plant history; operating logs; principle maintenance and modification activities *** "
Contrary to the above, records documenting materials, parts and components used on safety-related components could not be located in that three of ten maintenance reports completed during 1978 selected at random of three safety-related system.s did not provide nor lead to the required traceability of materials used.
B.
RESPONSE
A.
The item as stated is correct.
- 1. Corrective steps which have been taken and results achieved:
Instructions have been issued to all maintenance and stores personnel that prior to issuance of material from the station storeroom or warehouse, the Maintenance Request No. must be *recorded against the material identifiaat~on number on stores issue form 097483030.
This will insure proper material history associated with safety related systems and component maintenance.
- 2.
Corrective steps which will be taken to avoid further non-compliance:
The actions taken above will preclude further non-compliance.
- 3. The date when full compliance will be achieved:
Full compliance has been achieved.
NRC COMtIBNT:
As required by 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, Criterion V states in part that activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings, of a type appropriate to the circumstances.
The accepted Quality Assurance Program (FSAR Chapter 17.2), Table 17.2.0, lists ANSI 45.2.2.1972, which states, "VEPCO's program meets this standard, as applicable to the Operational Phase".
Section 6.4.2 of the conunitted standard states in part,.
" ***** Items in storage shall have all covers, caps, plugs or other closures -*
- intact".
"Rotating electrical equipment shall be given insulation resistance tests on a scheduled basis *** "
" *** Shafts of rotating equipment shall be rotated on a periodic basis *** ".
Contrary to t~e above, there existed no Preventative Haintenance Procedures to provide for t.~e care of safety-related items in storage in that pipes were not capped, t:10tors were not being tested for insulation resistance, and equipment shafts were not being rotated.
