Response to NRC Report # 50-341/79-18 Statement of Infraction 79-18, Appendix A
Reference:
Details; Section 4, Pages 4-6 Infraction:
Contrary to 10CFR50, Appendix B, Criterion VII, QC Receiving Inspec-tions were not performed on material received by Hismer and Becker from Capital Pipe and Steel Products Company on June 20 and 27,1978.
Corrective Action Taken and Results Achieved Certification for the identified heat nur.bers have been located, reviewed, found acceptable and placed in the appropriate file.
QC signature on " Field Inventory Requisitions" (FIR's) provides documented evi-dence that pipe issued from the warehouse to the field is properly identified by the heat number noted on the FIR.
In order to assure that the pipe was not issued to the field without this QC verif_ication, all FIR's for pipe sizes affected by the two RIR's will be reviewed for signature.
In addition, warehouse stock of the affected pipe sizes will be inspected to locate material containing heat nurbers associated with the two RIR's.
If any of this material is found in the warehouse, it will be receipt inspected and documented on a receiving inspection report form.
It should be noted that during the process of installation of the pipe several in-spection points are provided.
The first is the heat number verification at tire of issue as previously described. Second, is the heat number tranfer at time of cutting. Third, is fit up inspection for cleanliness, heat number identification, schedule and material type, and verification of various weld procedure parameters.
The fourth inspection is performed at tinal walkdown where the objective is to verify that the entire installation conforms to specified requirements.
Therefore, all attributes of receiving inspection are performed again during the normal in-stallation process with the exception of quantity, packaging and certification review.
Wismer and Becker (W&B) QA Personnel are in the process of performing a review of all receiving inspection reports generated to date for completeness and adequacy.
The RIR log will also be reviewed for completeness.
Any additional discrepancies encountered will be documented on Wismer and Becker surveillance report (s).
Corrective Action to be Taken to Avoid Further Non-Compliance Auditing of the Receiving Inspection Log will be added to H&B's Quality Assurance audit schedule.
This audit will be performed monthly along with the monthly Document Control Audit.
A review was conducted of the QA Program Controls for receiving inspection con-ducted by Wismer and Becker and as a result it was determined that the descrip-tion of receiving activities is sufficient.
It was noted, however, that it is the sole responsibility of the receiving inspector to forward completed receiving 6

Response to NRC Report # 50-341/79-18 Corrective Action to be Taken to Avoid Further Non-Compliance (cont'd) inspection reports to the QC records section. The 1l&B receiving function has been audited in the past, but this particular problem had not been found.
Presently, it appears to be an isolated incident where the two receiving inspection ceports were not on file.
The actual extent of the problem will be determined by the re-sults of the review discussed previously.
Within recent months, greater Management emphasis on Quality has been requested and received from W&B. Monthly meetings have been instituted where quality con-cerns are discussed between Edison, Daniel and W&B Management. One of the objec-tives of the meetings is to obtain greater Management involvement in corrective action. Also, in order to implement the H&B Program more effectively, additional attention has been directed to the training area.
W&B has recently acquired the services of a consultant to assist in administering their training program.
Edison and Daniel Management will continue to monitor implementation of the QA Program to assure the corrective action taken is adequate to preclude re-occurence.
Date When Full Compliance Will be Achieved The corrective action described will be complete by January 31, 1980.
