APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Public Service Company of New Hampshire Docket Nos. 50-443 50-444 This refers to the inspection conducted by representatives of the Region I (Philadelphia) office at the Seabrook Station, Units 1 and 2, Seabrook, New Hampshire of activities authorized by NRC License Nos. CPPR-135 and CPPR-136.

During this inspection, conducted on September 4-7, 1979, the following items of noncompliance were identified:

A.

10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVIII, states, in part, that,

"... Audits shall be performed in accordance with written procedures...

Followup action, including reaudit of deficient areas, shall be taken where indicated..."

The licensee's PSAR for the Seabrook Station, Units 1 and 2, states, in part, in Paragraph 17.1.18, "...The YAEC audit procedure requires that a written report be prepared denoting the areas covered by the audit, the results of the audit and the area recuiring corrective action and reaudit to ensure deficient items found are corrected..."

Paragraph 3.1.8.8 of the Yankee Atomic Electric (YAEC) QA Procedure 9.1 states that, " Audit reports requiring corrective action shall be followed up as detailed in YAEC QA Procedure 8.1 (Correction Action").

Contrary to the above, as of September 6,1979, the YAEC QA Procedure 8.1 does not address the reauditing to ensure that the deficient items found during an audit have been corrected.

This item is an infraction.

B.

10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, states, in part, that, "... Measures shall be established to assure that conditions adverse to quality, such as... deviations...and nonconformances are promptly... corrected.

In the case of significant conditions adverse to quality, the measures shall assure that the... corrective action (is) taken to preclude repetition."

The licensee's PSAR for the Seabrook Station, Units 1 and 2, states, in part, in Paragraph 17.1.16, "...Each organization performing quality related activities covered by this program shall provide measures to control conditions adverse to quality.

44 4g 80020 p

Appendix A 2

The measure shall include procedures defining methods, prompt identification, correction, deteraining cause and the prevention of repetition of conditions adverse to quality..."

Paragraph E of the United Engineers and Constructors (UE&C) Surveillance Procedure QCP-10-1, states, in part, "...The quality assurance engineer shall verify that effective corrective action has been taken on the unsatisfactory findings of the surveillance...

This shall be accomplished by conducting a followup surveillance of the open items..."

Contrary to the above, as of September 7,1979, the UE&C procedure does not address when the reaudits are to be conducted to verify that prompt corrective action has been taken and nor does it require the auditors to verify the effectiveness of the corrective action to preclude repetition.

This item is an infraction.
