Subject:
Report No. 50-280/85-35
50-281/e
On September 30-0ctober 2 and October 21-25, 1985, the NRC inspected activities
authorized by the NRC operating licenses No. DPR-32/37 for the Surry Nuclear
Power Station.
At the conclusion of the inspection, the findings were discussed
with those members of your staff identified in the enclosed inspection report .
.
The purpose of this inspection was to review receipt, evaluation, and
implementation of actions determine~d_,.b*y Virginia Power to be appropriate for
vendor technical information recefved from Westinghouse and other selected
equipment vendors.
Areas examined during the inspection and our findings are
discussed in the enclosed report. Within these areas, the inspection
consisted of procedures and representative records, interviews with personnel,
and observations by the inspector.
With regard to the vendor-provided information and recommendations pertaining
to safety-related systems and components, a number of weaknesses were
identified.
Your system for managing vendor technical information fails to
ensure that appropriate individuals receive the information and that an
adequate evaluation is performed to determine what equipment may be affected.
Rather, the program focuses upon potential technical manual or procedure
revision. This programmatic weakness was also found in the area of evaluating
10 CFR Part 21 reports.
Several instances were found where 10 CFR Part 21
reports had not been adequately evaluated.
This potential enforcement finding
is discussed in Section 7 of the inspection report and will be referred to the
NRC Region II office for appropriate followup action and resolution .
