Mr. A. L. DuBrow President and General Manager 7500 Tyrone Avenue Van Nuys, CA 91409 Gentlemen:
This refers to the inspection conducted by Mr. J. W. Sutton of this office on March 22-25, 1982, of your facility at Van Nuys, California, associated with the manufacture of nuclear valves and to the discussion of our findings with Mr. C. P. Spiegel and members of your staff at the conclusion of the inspection.
This inspection was made as a result of the identification by:
(1) Duke Power Company of internal binding in 8-inch gate valves furnished to Catawba 1 and 2; and by (2) Tennessee Valley Authority concerning the specification on a Borg Warner drawing of excessive bolt torque for a flow control valve furnished to Bellefonte 1 and 2.
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 to the pertinent requirements are identified in the enclosures to this 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 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 actions and preventive measures were or will be completed.
Consideration may be given to extending your response time for good cause shown.
