INTERIM REPORT - DER 83-88 POTENTIAL REFORTABLE DEFICIENCY ARIZONA PUBLIC SERVICE COMPANY (APS)

PVNGS UNIT 1 & 2 I. Potential Problem During a Startup QA Audit (S-83-036), several Quality Assurance deficiencies were discovered. These deficiencies are a result of the inconsistent application of the APS Quality Assurance Program during implementation of Startup Activities. Although these deficiencies would not be considered significant when evaluated on a case by case basis, when. viewed collectively, represent a potential breakdown of the APS QA program.

Some of these deficiencies included:

a. Failure of the Startup Procurement Program to purchase spare / replacement parts per original specification / purchase order.
b. Failure to implement an effective identification and control program for nonconformances.
c. Failure to adequately define testing requirements on a Design Change Package (DCP).
d. Failure to establish and control organizational responsibilities, interfaces and related quality ' activities.

II. Approach To and Status of Proposed Resolution APS management is working to correct the identified deficiencies and is also assessing the impact of the QA program on startup activities. Any necessary changes will be implemented in the QA program.

III Projected Completion of Corrective Action and Submittal of the Final Report Evaluation of this condition and submittal of the Final Report is forecast to be completed by April 15, 1984.
