Docket No. 50-289 License No. DPR-50 Inspection No. 77-27 RESPONSE TO DESCRIPTION OF /JpARENm VIOLATION Apparent Violation 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion VI, states in part. " Measures shall be i

established to control the issuance of documents, such as... procedures

... including changes thereto, which prescribe all activities affecting quality. Tlese measures shall assure that documents, including changes

...are distributed to and used at the location where the prescribed activity is performed... "

Contrary to the above, measures were not established to control the issuance f

of documents, in that during the period of January 21, 1977 through August 18 l

3 1977, one surveillance activity of the eight surveillance activities inspected and three operations activities of the six operations activities inspected were accomplished using procedures that vere superseded by revisions to these y procedures.

Response

I AP 1001 allows use of xerox copies provided the cupies are xeroxed i==edis.tely prior to use. The procedures OP 110h h, OP 110h-2 e.nd 0F 1103-8 vere xeroxed from controlled copies for use during the refueling outage startup. However, the procedures were not used immediately because of delays in plant startup.

l' The procedures were revised during the delays in plant startup, and the copies

. which had been xe' sxed were not revised. A me=o was distributed on October 11, 1977, requiring t'aat copies of procedures be verified as current immediately before their use.

The use of outdated forms in the perfor=ance of SP 1301-5.8 was due to keeping i

data for=s in a separate file. These forms were not updated when the procedure

{

vas revised. These blank form files have been eliminated, and in the future, data sheets vill be xeroxed directly from the controlled copies of the procedure i

to prevent reoccurrences.

Full compliance vill be achieved by Nover.ber 1, 1977 1447 0W t
