Georgia Power Company submits the following revised response to our submittal of February 23, 1981, regarding the notice of violation for Hatch Unit 1 addressed in FRC Inspection Report 50-321/80-46 and 50-366/80-46, dated January 29, 1981.

The information is being resubmitted in order to properly respond to the notice of violation using the NRC-desired format.

VIOLATION 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criteria V, as implenented by paragraph D.9.5 of the FSAR, requires in part, " Activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instruction, procedures, drawings and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures, and drawings".

Paragraph F of plant procedure HtP-904, the applicable procedure for administration of the inservice inspection program, requires that the written document detailing the proposed work to be done be reviewed and approved prior to the outage.

Contrary N

the

above, activities affecting quality were not accomplished in accordance with occumented procedures in that during the " Spring 79 Maintenance Outage", inspections were performed in accordance with a Project Plan which was not approved by the licensee.

This is a Severity Level VI Violation (Supplement I.F.).

m GeorgiaPower d U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Office of Inspection and Enforcement Rcgion II - Suite 3100 Page Two March 13, 1981 The Reason (s) For The Violation If Admitted:

A procedural deficiency could be attributed as the cause of the violation as procedure HP-904, " Inservice Inspection Program", did not specifically address who was to approve the plan.

In the case of the 1979 ISI, the Project Plan was reviewed by the ISI engineer prior to the outage and performance of inspections and found acceptable for use.

The actual inspections were performed using PRB-approved NDT procedures.

Corrective Steps Which Have Been Taken. And Results Ach'iNed:

The'1975 ~ Unit 1 ISI Project Plan has recently been reviewed and approved by the PRB, and the vendor has been notified of this action.

Corrective Steps which Will Be Taken To Avoid Further Violations:

In the future, ISI Project Plans are to be reviewed and approved by PRB prior to the inspection.

This requirment has been added to procedure HP-904 so that any question on required approvals will be resolved.

The Date When Full Compliance Will Be Achieved:

1 Plant Hatch is presently in full compliance with the requirements of both revised plant procedure HP-904 and 10 CFR 50, Appendix B,

Criteria V for this item.
