Corrective action that has been taken and results achieved:
After notification of the violation, appropriate NDE personnel were reninded of the importance of proper and emplete data recording.
Corrective steps that will be taken to avoid further violations:
On Deceber 29, 1983, Southern Cm pany Services procedure 17r-H-410 was implenented to cover the same scope of exminations as IMT procedure 17r-2.
'Ihe data sheet for this new procedure has more specific areas for recording the location of the scans.
Date when full empliance will be achieved:
GPC is attenpting to locate correlating information (i.e., insulation renoved in the area in question) that would substantiate performance of the exmination.
If such evidence cannot be found, the examination area will be inspected prior to startup fran the next Hatch Unit 1 refueling outage.
Should you have any questions in this regard, please contact this office.
