Control of Significant Deficiencies

.

a.

. Procedures

The ins'pector reviewed procedures for control of nonconformances

and records pertaining to nonconforming conditiions which were

'

considered to be potentially reportable.

Project Procedure P304, Revision 6, "Nonconformance Control"

establishes the requirements for reporting of nonconforming

-

conditions to "LILCo Project" and for review and reporting of

deficiencies in accordance with 10 CFR 50.55(e) and 10 CFR 21.

Paragraph 3.3.2 states that S&W, GE, and other contractors "..are

4

responsible for promptly advising LILCo of any deficiency within

their . scope of responsibility which is possibly reportable in

accordance with.10 CFR 50.55(e)."; that ". .the Project Engineer

sha'll make a determination of reportability within a twenty-four

hour period.."; and provides instruc.tions concerning reporting

requirements. The inspector noted that the procedure contained

no instructions concerning deficiencies which were potentially

_ reportable but for which a determination dould not be made within

twenty-four hours. Quality Assurance Procedure QAP 15.2, Revision

5, " Reporting Requirements-NRC," requires in Section 3.1.3 that a

Project Manager is responsible for notifying the Office of I$spection

and Enforcement of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission about a

-

possible reportable deficiency within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> after he has been

made aware of it."

t

v

Region I had received telephone notification of one item, distortien

of Rockbestos cable insulation by nylon binding under certain

conditions, on May 14, 1981.

The inspector discussed this item

with representatives of the licensee, and asked why a written

report had not been received. They stated that this notification

,

had been fnr information only and that they did not consider this

itain to be reportable under 10 CFR 50.55(e) inasmuch as initial

a

tests had shown the cable to be acceptable. Additional tests

,

after aging and under LOCA conditions will be performed.

The inspector and licensee representatives reviewed the NRC

position with regard to notificati'on of potentian' reportable

.

deficiencies as provided in " Guidance-10 CFR 50.55(e), Construction

Deficiency Reporting" dated April 1,1980, a copy of which had

'

been furnished to the licensee shortly after its issue.

'

The licensee was informed that lack of instructions concerning

reporting of potentially reportable deficiencies in Project

Procedure P304 is considered to be in violatien of 10 CFR Appendix

B, Criterion V (332/81-16-01).

Records

The inspector examined records of items which had been submitted

to "LILCo Projects" as possibly reportable during 1981. Of-

seventeen such items; one is discussed-in Section a. above, and

six had no information on file to show whether they had been

received. All of these items are considered by the licensee to

be not reportable. However, information was not available during

this inspection to support this judgement.

This item is unresolved pending review by an NRC inspector of

this supporting information.
