ZIMMER NUCLEAR POWER STATION - UNIT 1 10CFR50.55(e), ITEM M-87, DESIGN CONTROL PROCESS INADEQUATE TO ASSURE DESIGN OUTPUT DOCUMENTS CONTAIN ADEQUATE ERECTION AND INSPECTION CRITERIA W.O.
57300,' JOB E-5590, FILE NO. 956C, M-87 This letter supercedes our last response, LOZ-83-0045, dated June 15, 1983 and constitutes an interim report concerning the subject condition initially reported to the Commission on May 13, 1983 as a potentially reportable deficiency under the requirements of 10CFR50.55 (e).
The subject condition was identified in NUREG-0969, " Report of the NRC Evaluation Team on the Quality of Construction at the 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.
NUREG-0969 Section 2.5, did not identify any deficiency in design or construction which, were it to have remained uncorrected, could have affected adversely the safety of operations of the plant.
CG&E is conducting a more detailed investigation into the specific items mentioned in NUREG-0969, Section 2.5.
CG&E has not yet determined that any of the subject conditions when taken individually are reportable under the requirements of 10CFR50.55(e).
If this investigation should identify items which meet the 10CFR50.55 (e) reporting criteria, they will be reported.

e Mr. J.G. Keppler Regional Administrator June 30, 1983 LOZ-83-0074 Page 2 NUREG-0969, Section 2.5 states in part "...given the widespread nature of these concerns when taken in aggregate, there appears to be a clear need to verify the overall quality of the S&L design process."
CG&E is presently conducting an audit af the S&L design process to ensure its overall quality.
CG&E has not yet determined that it represents a condition reportable under the requirements of 10CFR50.55(e).
A follow-up report will be submitted af ter the completion of the S&L audit.
We trust the above will be found acceptable as an interim report under 10CFR50.55 (e).
Very truly yours, THE CINCINNATI GAS & ELECTRIC COMPANY M
