RESPONSE TO ENFORCEMENT ITEMS Below is our response to Appendix A, Notice of Violation, of United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission I.E. Report 50-440/83-11; 50-441/83-10:

I. Noncompliance 440/83-11-01 A. Severity Level IV Violation 10CFR50, Appendix B, Criterion V, as implemented by CEI Corporate Nuclear Quality Assurance Program Manual, Section 0500, requires that activities af fecting quality be performed in accordance with documented instructions and procedures of a type appropriate to the circumstances.

Contrary to the above, Johnson controls Incorporated (JCI - the instrumentation contractor) was performing turnover reviews of purchase orders and installation / fabrication packages without a documented procedure. As a result, those deficiencies which were identified during the review were not being documented and controlled in accordance with JCI's approved QA program.

B. Response

1. Corrective Action Taken and Results Achieved The immediate corrective action taken by Johnson Controls Inc. was to suspend all document review processes that were being performed.

This was directed by the JCI QA Manager via memo to the Quality Engineer responsible for records turnover. Included in the memo were additional instructions specifying that all " Purchase Order Review Forms" be reviewed for the existence of deficiencies. Upon evaluation, if deficiencies were determined to be nonconforming conditions, they were to be documented in accordance with the existing JCI program.

The five deficiencies that were listed for purchase order number 64491-1 were reviewed and evaluated by JCI danagement. As a result of the review it was determined that no nonconforming l conditions existed. This review was documented on the " Purchase Order Review Form".

2. Corrective Actica Taken To Avoid Further Noncompliances

! Johnson Controls procedure QAS-1802-PNPP, " Review and Turnover of l Records," has been revised to reflect the present method of docu-ment review. Included in the revision is specific reference to the " Transfer Unit Deficiency List". The " Transfer Unit Deficiency List" is a list of all deficiencies identified on purchase orders

(

and installation / fabrication packages. Deficiencies are evaluated l for nonconforming conditions. Additionally, the procedure emphasizes the requirement for identification and documentation of nonconforming

~

l conditions.

NOTE: Transfer Unit Deficiency List and Purchase Order Review Form are synonymous.

3. Date When Full Compliance Will Be Achieved l Full compliance has been achieved.
