Dear Mr. O'Reilly:

HARTSVILLE A AND YELLOW CREEK NUCLEAR PLANTS - REPORTABLE DEFICIENCY -

FAILURE OF TVA'S DIVISION OF ENGINEERING DESIGN TO PROVIDE BOLT TIGHTENING REQUIREMENTS TO THE DIVISION OF CONSTRUCTION -

HTRD-50-518/83-04, -520/83 YCRD-50-566/83-02, -567/83-02 The subject deficiency was initially reported to NRC-0IE, Region II, Inspector Ross Butcher on February 28, 1983 as NRCs HTADNP8301 and YCNDNP8301. In compliance with paragraph 50.55(e) of 10 CFR Part 50, we are enclosing our first interim report on the subject deficiency. Generic implications of this nonconformance are being resolved by NCR WBNSWP8230, which was reported to NRC Inspector P. Fredrickson on January 20, 1983 TVA has elected to defer construction activities for these projects. Deferral does not mean that these projects will be cancelled but that TVA is minimizing its expenditures and construction efforts until such time that TVA has

' sufficient information to indicate whether these projects should be completed or cancelled. Therefore, we will not be submitting a final report for this nonconformance until a final decision is made regarding these projects.

If you have any questions, please call Jim Domer at FTS 858-2725 for Hartsville and Ralph Shell at FTS 858-2676 for Yellow Creek.

Very truly yours, TENNESSEE VALLEY AUTHORITY s
