Units 1 and 2 Docket Nos. STN 50-498, STN 50-499 Revised ResDonse to Notice of Violation (498/8916-02; 499/8916-02)
Reference:
Correspondence from S. L. Rosen (HL&P) to NRC Document Control Desk, dated February 8, 1Q93 (ST-HL-AE-4307)
[
The referenced letter submitted a revised response to Notice of Violation (NOV) 498/8916-02; 499/8916-02.
The-cover letter of i
the revised NOV response discussed Quality Assurance (QA) review of procurement documents.
This letter is being submitted to advise the NRC that QA review of procurement documents is being eliminated l
by a revision to the QA program.
The QA program change only af fects the discussion of QA review of procurement documents in the cover letter.
The QA program change does not affeet the revised NOV response, as explained below.
The NOV was originally issued because purchasing personnel were not accurately transferring technical and quality requirements i
from the purchase requisition to the purchase order.
Currently, the computer mainframe purchasing system transfers the technical and quality requirements electronically from the purchase f
requisition to the purchase order, hence, recurrence has been precluded by the electronic transfer of information.
The cover letter of HL&P's revised response stated that j
Engineering and QA reviewed and approved procurement documents.
This statement referred to review of the purchase requisition as entered in the computer mainframe purchasing system.
Because this review was a review of the purchase requisition rather than the i
purchase order, the Engineering and QA review would not have found errors in the purchase order.
Hence, eliminating QA review of purchase requisitions will have no ef fect on the corrective actions to preclude recurrence of the original violation.
