Gentlemen:

This refers to tb inspection conducted by Messrs. Murphy, Parker, and

Whitt of this office on March 4-8, 1974, of the implementation of the

quality assurance program for operation of the Arkansas Nuclear One,

Unit 1 facilf ty, and to the discussions of our findings held by Mr. Murphy

with Messrs. Anderson and Cavanaugh at the conclusion of the inspection.

The purpose of this inspection was to make a determination through in-depth

. inspections whether your quality assurance program has been satisfactorily

i

~

implemented or would be implemented prior to licensing for those quality

affecting activities associated with the initial fuel load and startup and

operation of the plant. Within these areas, the inspection consisted of.

selective examinations of procedures and representative records, interviews

with personnel, and observations by the inspector.

Within the scope of this inspection, no violations were disclosed.

Significant deficiencies in the implementation of your quality assurance

program for operations were detected in areas related to each of the

eighteen criteria of Appendix B to 10 CFR 50 and are identified in Section

III of the summary of the enclosed report as unresolved items. Weaknesses

identified in the implementation of the ANO-1 organization for quality

assurance during operations (Criterion I) have been forwarded to Regulatory

Operations, Headquarters for evaluation and action. You should expect to

'

i

hear from them in the near future. AP&L will be required to have a

satisfactory QA program for operations implemented prior to licensing.

Guidance with regard to acceptable methods for implementation of your QA

l

program for operations can be found in appropriate Regulatory Guides and

national standards. We understand that AP&L has made a commitment to have

their program for operations implemented by April 15, 1974. These items

will be inspected during subsequent prelicensing inspections.
