Gentlemen:

This refers to the inspection conducted by Mr. Wm. D. Kelley of this office on October 26-30, 1981, of your facility at Williamsport, Pennsylvania, associated with the manufacture of nuclear valves and to the discussions of our findings with you and members of your staff at the conclusion of the inspection.

This inspection was made as a result of the issuance of licensee event reports by:

(1) Arkansas Power and Light Company concerning both the discovery of missing parts in a four inch swing check valve which had been installed in the Arkansas Nuclear One, Unit 2 facility, and the identification from the retrieved parts of the use of a lock wire in assembly rather than the drawing specified cotter pin; and (2) Southern California Edison Company concerning the failure of San Onofre, Unit 1 double disc parallel seated gate valves to open upon receipt of a valid safety injection signal.

Areas examined and our findings are discussed in the enclosed report. Within these areas, the inspection consisted of an examination of procedures and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observations by the inspector.

During the inspection it was found that the implementation of your QA program failed to meet certain NRC requirements.

The specific findings and references i

to the pertinent requirements are identified in the enclosures to this I

letter.

Please provide us within 30 days from the date of this letter a written statement containing, (1) a description of' steps that have been or will be l

taken to correct these items, (2) a description of steps that have been or will be taken to prevent recurrence, and (3) the date your corrective actiens l
