Attention:
Mr. J.G. Keppler Regional Administrator Gentlemen:
RE:
WM. H. ZIMMER NUCLEAR POWER STATION - UNIT 1 10CFR50. 55 (e), ITEM H-87 DESIGN CONTROL PROCESS INADEQUATE TO ASSURE DESIGN OUTPUT DOCUMENTS CONTAIN ADEQUATE ERECTION AND INSPECTION CPF/ URIA W.O. 57300, JOB E-5590, 72LE NO. 955C, M-87 The subject condition was initially reported to the Conmission as a potentially reportable deficiency on May 13, 1983, pending completion of an engineering evaluation to determine its significance.
Based on our telephone conversation with D. Hunter, we have requested an extension for our response
-until June 16, 1983.
l The subject. condition was identified in NUREG-0969, " Report of the NRC Evaluation Team on the Quality of Construction at the i
j Zimmer Nuclear Power Station" (April 1983).
Section 2.5 of NUREG-0969, entitled Evaluation of Sargent & Lundy Design Practices, identified concerns regarding Sargent & Lundy (S&L) design drawings and specifications.
CG&E has determined that the subject condition is not reportable under the requirements of 10CFR50.55 (e) because the subject regulation reads "If the permit is for construction of a nuclear power plant, the holder of the permit shall notify the l
Commission of each deficiency found in design and construction, j
which, were it to have remained uncorrected, could have affected i
adversely the safety of operations of the nuclear power plant anytime throughout the expected life time of the plant,..."

The subject NRC NUREG-0969 Section 2.5, did not identify any deficiency 'in design or construction which, were it to have
's remained uncor rected, could 'have affected adversely the safety. of operations of the plant.
Furthermore, the NUREG it.? elf states "Taken individually, each concern may appear to be of minor significance."
This supports our determination that none of the identified items meets the requiremonts of 50.55 (e) reportability.
However, CGES is taking steps to verify the overall quality of the SEL design procese.
Our investigation to date. dces not reveal any itens not
.ciready reported.
We are now conducting a acre detailed investigation into the specific itemr mentioned in the NDT Report.
If this investigation should identify items which meet i
. the '10CFR50.55 (e) reporting criteria, they will be reported.
