3) Letter, WPEB-83-5048, Mr. R. S. Leddick to Mr.

D. L. Quamme, Responses to NRC Enforcement Items, dated March 8, 1983.

Reference 1) provided your office with a Supply System report of corrective / preventive actions taken and the date of full compliance for the subject noncompliance (absence of preventive maintenance control for Shut Down Cooling Heat Exchangers). Reference 2) sub-sequently notified you that during verification of corrective actions reported in Reference 1) the Supply System discovered that not all actions had been completed as reported. Specifically, the July 30, 1982 date of. full compliance had not been met and intensive training was conducted only for Ebasco personnel involved with Receipt and Control.

The Supply System has completed an evaluation of all corrective / preven-tive actions taken and the reasons the commitments were nat fulfilled.

Results of the evaluation, including a new date of full compliance and any additional actions required to satisfactorily resolve the noncom-pliance, are as follows:

e The July 30, 1982 date of full compliance was based on the projected completion of an Ebasco review of the computerized material control system (Construction Commodity Control System - CCCS) for erroneous information to assure correct. material control status was entered into '

the system. Subsequent Supply System verification of corrective actions 8304280277 830422 PDR ADOCK 05000508 G PDR

." Mr. D. M. Sttrnberg Page 2 found.that the Ebasco review of the CCCS Program had been completed October 27, 1982. The review required more time than anticipated; however, Ebasco inadvertently failed to notify the Supply System that the date had not been met. To preclude. recurrence, the Supply System issued Reference 3) directing Ebasco to implement specified actions to assure accurate information'is provided to the NRC..

e Supply System evaluation of the Ebasco CCCS review determined that this corrective action would not adequately assure that all Class I equipment requiring preventive maintenance (PM) was actually in a PM Program. Therefore, an additional Ebasco review was conducted to provide assurance that both Unit 3 and Unit 5 items are covered by a PM Program. As -a-result of this supplemental effort, the CCCS file is in the process of being coded _to indicate the items in PM Programs and the responsible contractor. It is anticipated that .

this action will be complete by March 31, 1983. Upon completion of this action, the Supply System will consider the problem to be sat-isfactorily resolved and full compliance achieved.

e Reference 1) reported that all Ebasco personnel involved with the following activities were trained:

1) Receipt and control of owner-furnished material

2) Equipment and material transfer (EMTRs) between units

3) Conditional release of material and equipment

4) Preparation of material requisitions on the warehouse (R0Ws)

However, Supply System verification of corrective actions taken found that only personnel involved in the receipt and control of material were trained to the relevant procedures governing the four (4) areas listed above. Those personnel who received the train-ing were Warehouse Checkers, Warehouse Supervisors ~and the Warehouse Manager. It should be noted that the Supply System considers the training of these personnel to be a satisfactory preventive action for the item of noncompliance.

Since second and third parties were necessary to develop the response, the translation of information from party to party became unclear.

It is believed that this was the cause of the incorrect information c concerning the training. It is considered that Ebasco implementation

i. of the actions prescribed in Reference 3) will minimize the possibility I of incorrect information translated from party to party.
