Dear Mr. O'Reilly:
PHIPPS BEND NUCLEAR PLANT UNIT 1 - REPORTABLE DEFICIENCY - EMBEDDED PLATES WITHOUT HEAT TRACEABILITY (NCR PBNP-156)

As requested by Region II Inspector B. R. Crowley in Inspection Report Nos. 50-553/81-01 and 50-554/81-01 transmitted to TVA in C. E.
Murphy's February 11, 1981, letter, we are enclosing the supplemental to the final report.

SUPPLEMENTAL TO FINAL REPORT' 1
i Cause The nature of the deficiency is such that an exact determination of
{
its cause is not possible. The deficiency was probably due to human error in the recording of heat numbers as the materials were logged
[
}
in.
?
l Action to Prevent Recurrence
}
I t
The appropriate personnel have been reinstructed in the need for j
proper and accurate documentation of material heat numbers as i
specified in Receiving Inspection Storage and Preventative I
Maintenance Procedure C-501 and in addition, Quality Control i
Information Prc:edure, QCI-C-301.Il has been revised (as underlined) j i
to read:
Prior to unloading the material, verify that the heat number on t.he (**VA Requisition Form) 575 is acceptable for use per the latest list of acceotable heat numbers.
f I
This revision should prevent any material from entering the j
warehouse which is not on Phipps Bend's lists of acceptable material j
heat numbers (heat number log). Therefore, regardless of the cause
[
of an improper log entry (be it human error or otherwise), the error
}
would be detected by implementation of this procedure.
