ATTACRMENT A RESPONSE TO ENFORCEMENT ITEM Below is our response to the Notice of Violation appended to United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission I.E. Report 50-440/82-09; 50-441/82-08.

I. Noncompliance 440/82-09-04; 441/82-08-04 A.. Severity Level IV Violation 10CFR50, Appendix B, Criterion V states, " Activities affecting quality shall be prescrioed...and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures or drawings."

The licensee's Corporate Nuclear Quality Assurance Program 0500, Revision 4, Section 1.1 states, "The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company requires that activities affecting quality of safety-class s truc tu res , systems, and components shall be _ prescribed in and accomplished by documented ins tructions, procedures, and drawings."

Contrary to the above:

a. On July 21, 1982, it was identified that Kaiser Engineers, Inc.

did not maintain a " record of lead auditor qualifications." . This is contrary to Revision 3 of their Procedure QAP No. 20.

b. On July 22, 1982, it was identified that Pullman Power Products Corp. had safety-related piping stored without the ends being

! capped, and safety-related hangers were not stored on dunnage.

i This is contrary to their Procedure XIII-5. -

i

c. On July 22, 1982, it was identified that General Electric Company

[

was storing a spool piece without the ends being capped. This is contrary to their Procedure GEP-G-0001.

d. On July 28, 1982, it was identified that The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company was not maintaining field stored equipment in accordance with the Field Storage Maintenance Request. This is contrary to their Procedure 3-1302.
e. On July 20, 1982, it was identified that, Johnson Controls, Inc.,

was not maintaining field stored equipment in accordance with the licensee's Field Storage Maintenance Request. This ' is cont rary to their Procedure QAS-1402-PNPP.

f. On July 27, 1982, it was identified that The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company was not including the persons contacted or l- an evaluation statement regarding the effectiveness of the quality l assurance program elements which were audited in their audit l reports. This is contrary to their Procedure 1-1806.

g. On July 23, 1982, it was identified that The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company was not keeping work areas sufficiently clean and orderly by removing trash in a prompt manner. This is contrary to their Procedure PAP-0206,
h. on July 21, 1982,. it was identified ' that Pullman Power Products Corp was not protecting quality records from fire and humidity.

This is contrary to their Procedure XVII-1,

i. On July 21, 1982, it was identified that General Electric Company was not storing quality records to protect them from damage due to water and humidity. This is contrary to their Procedure GEP-GQI-0001.
j. &a July 27, 1982, it was identified that The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company was not maintaining an up-to-date file of NRC inspection and enforcement document evaluations. This is contrary to their Procedure PAP-1601.

1 B. Response The following information describes the corrective action for each condition identifled above:

a. The Lead Auditor's Qualification record was updated on July 29, 1982, based upon objective evidence that an adequate number of -

l audits had been performed. Kaiser Engineer's Procedure QAP-22 has been revised to require that annual evaluation be performed in January of each year for all certifled Lead Auditors.

, b. As indicated in the details of the inspection report, the condi-tions found were promptly corrected. Ongoing surveillance performed by the Construction Quality Section has indicated that the isolated conditions observed are not generic in nature, j Nonetheless, increased surveillance has been implemented in the Pullman storage areas as a result of this concern, i

! c. As indicated in the details of the inspection report, the condi-i tion identifled above was promptly corrected. Ongoing surveillance

! performed by the Construction Quality Section has indicated that the isolated condition observed is not generic in nature. As a result of this concern, however, increased surveillance has been i implemented in the General Electric storage areas.

i

d. A detalled inspectLon was performed by the licensee on July 28, 1982, to determine whether or not the reported specific instances observed represented a hardware concern or program deficiency.

The inspection was performed on randomly selected pieces of safety-related equipment throughout the plant. The inspection revealed no instances of failure to meet specified Field Storage

Maintenance Requirements.

The specific examples identified in this report were resolved by correcting equipment protection or modifying the FSMRs to previde requirements applicable to the construction conditions.

4 To improve the coordination between FSMRs and current field conditions, the Project Maintenance activity has instituted a written feedback system to Engineering,

e. The condition cited (i.e., holes in the plastic covering for Panel 1H22-P026) was corrected during the course of the inspection by replacing the plastic covering. Ongoing surveillance performed by the Construction Quality Section has indicated that the isolated condition observed is not generic in nature. As a result of this concern, however, increased surveillance has been' implemented on Johnson Controls, Inc., maintenance activity,
f. As described in the details of the inspection report, a recent revision to Procedure 1-1806 resulted in the inadvertent omission of detailed criteria clarifying the implementation of ANSI N45.2-12 for process audits. Procedure 1-1806 is being revised and is scheduled for final approval by October 29, 1982. . Training will be conducted to the revised procedure prior. to implementation, as required,
g. Lumber, rags and other such items observed in the various plant areas by the Inspector have been removed. The Cons truction Quality Section personnel are utilizing an improved. checklist as part of the routine surveillance of housekeeping during construction.

Increased attention has been given to this ' area as a result of-the concerns expressed.

! h. Pullman Power Products Corporation has implemented administrative controls in the records stcrage area and has physically segregated the ' records area from the general work areas. Restriction signs

, for smoking and eating have been posted. In addition, a dehumidifier and temperature monitoring unit were installed during the course of the inspection. Improved administrative controls will preclude concern with records protection,

i. The General Electric Company will be providing cabinets to protect radiographs. The records vault has been re-evaluated

~

! and adequate drainage for water is -available under the entrance doo rway. In addition, a dehumidifier has been installed for humidity protection. The cabinets have been ordered and will be

! in place by October 29, 1982. These measures will exceed the l minimum requirements of General Electric Procedure GEP-CQI-0001.

J. The Licensing Engineering element will insue follow-up is documented on the outstanding IE Information Notices by November 15, 1982.

The licensee's review of the follow-up process for IE Documents indicates that the lack of timeliness relates only to Information l

Notices. IE Bulletins and Circulars are being adequately tracked.

The review of the documents is also per procedure. To improve timeliness and tracking, a computer system is now in place for follow-up on overdue responses, i
