21 DEC 1979 Docket No. 99900005/79-02 Westinghouse Electric Corporation Nuclear Fuel Division ATTN:
Mr. V. S. Moore General Manager Box 355 Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15230 Gentlemen:
This refers to the QA Program inspection conducted by Mr. W. M. McNeill of this office on Nove=ber 26-30, 1979, of your facility at Columbia, South Carolina, associated with the manufacture and fabrication of nuclear fuel assemblies and to the discussion of our findings with Mr. R. R. Cost and members of your staff at the conclusion of the inspection.
This inspection was made to confirm, that in the areas inspected, your QA Program is being effectively implemented.
The inspection effort is not designed to assure that unique quality requirements imposed by a customer are being implemented; nor to assure that a specific product, component or service provided by you to your customers, is of acceptable quality.
As you know, the NRC requires each of its licensees to assume full responsi-bility for the quality of specific products, components or services procured from others.
You should therefore not conclude that the NRC's inspection exempts you from inspections by an NRC licensee or his agents nor from taking effective corrective action in response to their findings.
Areas examined during the inspection and our findings are discussed in the en-closed report.
Within these areas, the inspection consisted of an examination of procedures and representative records, interviews with personnel, and obser-vations by the inspector.
Within the scope of this inspection, we found no instance where you failed meet NRC requirements.
In accordance with Section 2.790 of the Commission's " Rules of Practice,"
Part 2, Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, a copy of this letter together with the enclosed inspection report will be placed in the Com-missions's Public Document Room.
If this repcrt contains any information that you believe to be proprietary, it is necessary that you make a written application within thirty (30) days to this office to withold such information 8 0 0214 0 25 / 2L_

from public disclosure.
Any such application must include a full statement of the reasons on the basis of which it is claimed that the information is proprie-tary, and should be prepared so that the proprietary information identified in the application is contained in a separate part of the document.
If we do not hear from you in this regard within the specified period, the report will be placed in the Public Document Room.
Should you hav9 any questions concerning this inspection, we will be pleased to discuss them with you.
Sincerely,
