Dear Mr. Seidle:

We have reviewed the report dated November 21, 1979 on the inspection conducted by your resident inspector, Mr. R. G. Taylor, of the activities authorized by NRC Construction Permits No. CPPR-126 and 127 for the Comanche Peak facility. We have responded to the findings listed in Appendix A of that report.

To aid in the understanding of our response, we have repeated the require-ment and your findings followed by our corrective action.

We believe the attached information to be responsive to the Inspector's findings. If you have any questions, please advise.

Very truly yours, kl R. . Gary RJG:df Attachment 1808 277 8001250 18l

Inspection Report Nos. 79-27, 79-25 TXX-3081 Page 2 Appendix A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Based on results of the NRC inspection conducted on November 15, 1979, it appears that certain of your activities were not conducted in full compliance with the conditions of your NRC Construction Permits No. CPPR-126 and 127 as indicated below:

Failure to Update Procedures 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V states in part, " Activities affecting quality shall be preso-ibed by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings, of a type appropriate to the circumstances and shall be accom-plished in accordance with these instructions, procedures or drawings."

Contrary to the above:

Review of site Quality Assurance procedures reveals that some are not of a type appropriate to the circumstances and that certain activities affecting quality are not accomplished in accordance with existing procedures in that the following procedures, as a minimum, are obsolete since they no longer represent the organization, functional responsi-bilities and/or method of operation as appropriate:

1. CP-QP-3.0, Revision 0, "CPSES Site Quality Assurance Organization"
2. Q1-CP-11.0-AE, Revision 0, " Deviations to Quality Assurance / Quality Control Activities"
3. CP-QAP-1.1, Revision 0, "B&R Site QA Organization"
4. CP-QAP-2.2, Revision 0, "Stop Work"
5. CP-QAP-6.1, Revision 0, " Distribution and Control of Quality Assurance Procedures, Instructions and Manuals"
6. CP-QAP-10.3, Revision 2. "QC Surveillance of Welding Activities and Materials"
7. CP-QAP-15.2, Revision 0, " Handling of Potential Reportable Deficiencies" k808278 .

Inspection Report Nos. 79-27, 79-26 TXX-3081 Page 3

8. CP-QAP-17.1, Revision 1, " Management of Quality Assurance Records"
9. CP-QAP-18.2, Revision 2, " Site Surveillance" This is an infraction.

Corrective Steps Which Have Been Taken and Results Achieved Corrective actions have included revision or deletion of the listed procedures as well as others which are no longer required or were in need of revision to reflect re-assignment of responsibilities within the site QA/QC organization.

Corrective Steps Which Have Been or Will Be Taken to Avoid Further Noncompliance Assignments for review and necessary revision of the listed procedures and others had been made and documented prior to the NRC Inspection of November 15, 1979, but scheduled completion dates were not achieved. Preventive measures will therefore consist of stronger follow through on staff assignments to assure completion in a timely manner.

Date of Full Compliance Corrective and preventive measures are currently complete.
