Mr. F. J. Long Gentlemen:
The Georgia Power Company wishes to submit the following information in response to the seven apparent items of noncomplianca identified in the above referenced inspection report.
The A.
This item referred to the lack of control of special processes.
weld on the seismic class 1 hanger was cut out and a new weld made utilizing the proper procedure. The welding materials procedure HNP-6916 has been revised to add more stringent controls of welding rods including location of the actual weld.
This item referred to an insufficient calibration program for limiting B.
conditions of operation (LCO) instruments. The problem had been identified prior to the NRC inspection by plant personnel and correc-tive action was in progress. However, because the corrective action had not been documented in written form, such as maintenance requests and Deviation Reports, it was considered to be an item of noncompliance.
The LCO instrument calibration program has been revised and all instru-mentation calibrations are currently up to date.
Also reported under this same item of noncompliance was the failure of laboratory personnel to document the due date and recalibration frequency of two spectrophotometers. The required due dates and calibration frequencies have been established completing the necessary corrective action.
C.
This item referred to either the lack of procedures or inadequate procedures addressing all of the specific qualitative and quantitative acceptance criteria required by ANS1 Standards N45.2.3 " Housekeeping".
N4 5. 2. ll " Design", N45. 2.12 "Audi ting", and N45. 2.13 " Procurement" as coc=11tted to in the accepted Quality Assurance Program.
N4 5.2.3 " Housekeeping" commitment is addressed on page A.l.39-1 of the Hatch Unit 2 FSAR.
In lieu of designating cleanliness zones as required by N45.2.3, Plant Hatch will implement housekeeping controls commensurate with paragraph 5.2.10 of ANS1 N18.7-1976 through the radiatien protection and security procedures. The FSAR is being revised to reflect this 1 1979.

The schedule for completion'is March 1, 1979.
D.
This item referred to conditions adverse to quality which had not been promptly corrected. Plant management had identified this problem prior the the NRC inspection. The QA site audit procedure is being revised to include specific time limits for response to audit findings and the plant procedure is now being fully implemented. The schedule for imple-mentation is March 1, 1979.
