Mr. W.C. Seidle KMLNRC 83-057 May 20, 1983 Finding (continued) :
Manual, paragraph 17.1.11, requires Daniel International Corporation (DIC) to establish a test program to control its testing cctivities. This program will cover all required tests including, where appropriate, prototype qualification tests, hydrostatic tests of pressure boundaries, in process tests of manufact'ared items, and proof tests prior to installation.
Contrary to the above, DIC does not have a formal program in place to control the performance of testing.
Respanse:
a) Corrutive citeps which have been takan and results achieved:
Specific Daniel procedures / activities identified through KG&E Surveillance and Audit have been or are in the process of being revised to include definitive test control criteria as required by Corrective Action Report (CAR) 1-G-0024.
These procedures are:
QCP-I-01, R/14*
QCP-VII-211, R/3*
QCP-X-304, R/5*
WP-VII-211, R/9*
WP-X-304, R/8*
]
WP-XI-302, R/4*
AP-VI-13, P/3
- Approved and implemented b) Corrective steps which will be taken to avoid further violations:
(1) Daniel Construction Procedure AP-I-02, " Preparation, Review and Approval of Construction Procedures", will be revised to include more specific and defir;itiva dirt etion for preparation and processing construction procedures 'centaining test activities.
(2) Corrective Action Report 1-G-0024 will be revir,ed to require each Daniel Discipline Manager to perform a review of con-struction work procedures within the scope of the given discipline to assure adequacy of the current testing program.

.. e Mr. W.C. Seidle KMLNRC 83-057 May 20, 1983 Response (continued) :
2his review will consist of verification that ap-plicable criteria of the associated ANSI Standard (i.e., ANSI N45.2.4, N45.2.5, N45. 2.0) as well as specification requirements have been included in the applicable work procedures. Daniel Quality Engineering will perform a similar review of quality i
control procedures (QCP's) to verify adequacy of current procedural requirements. This review will be coordinated with the work procedures review.
(3) Should these reviews result in the determination that specific procedures are inadequate, procedural revisions will be initiated and implemented.
(4) A review of procedures previously governing test activities will be conducted to evaluate the adequacy of test control criteria. Procedural inadequacies which render test results indeterminate or unaccept-able will be documente 1 on Nonconformance Reports in ac~ordance with AP-VI-02.
(5) Upon completion of the Constructor's corrective actions, Kansas Gas and Electric Contpany's (KG&E)
Quality Assurance (QA) organization will verify completeness of the corrective actions. KG&E's QA organization will also determine the effective-ness of the corrective actions on subsequent scheduled audits /surveillances.
c) The date when full compliance will be achieved:
Full compliance will be achieved by July 15, 1983.
Supporting documentation for the responses previled above is available for review at the Wolf Creek job site.
