Dear Mr. Paperiello:
i DOCKET NOS. 50-266 AND 50-301 INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-266/84-14 AND 50-301/84-12 POINT BEACH NUCLEAR PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2 In the subject inspection reports, forwarded by your letter dated August 30, 1984, you requested that we provide a copy of our quality assurance audit of Teledyne Isotopes, Inc.,
our radiological environmental monitoring program contractor.
Please find enclosed a copy of that report and, for your information, a copy of Teledyne's response to our audit findings.
Your inspection reports also identified an unresolved item concerning the auditing of the on-site chemistry and radio-chemistry groups.
After several telephone conversations on this topic with members of your staff, it is our understanding that the audits you desire to review are those in satisfaction of Technical Specification 15.6.4.3.1, "Off-Site Review Committee (OSRC)".
Please note that the auditing functions of the OSRC have only recently been redefined to be consistent with the strictest reading of the requirements for auditing as documented in the recent NRC quality assurance audit.
Consequently, the documenta-tion provided at the time of this latest inspection was not that expected for a formal QA audit.
It is further our understanding that your inspector did review the available OSRC records.
Our OSRC audit policy has been recently revised as a result of the NRC QA audit.
The audit function assigned to the OSRC will now be executed by qualified lead auditors under the direction of the OSRC.
This action will provide the necessary documentation of audits of the on-site chemistry and radiochemistry groups.

Dear Mr. Huebner:
QA SURVEY JULY 19, 1983 The subject quality assurance survey was cond eted at your facility to verify implementation of your QA progran in accordance with the requirements of 10CFR50-B.
Mr. Rich Callahan accompanied me and the following Midwest Laboratories i
personnel were contacted:
Mr. Leonid G. Huebner - General Manager Miss Ching Marucut
- Lab Supervisor Mrs. Laurie Nicia
- Group Leader.
During the course of the survey one observation was noted.
Contrary to criteria I of 10CFR50-B, the Quality Assurance Adninistrator is not independent of the responsibilities of production, since 'tiss Ching Marucut is the OA Administrator and the Lab Supervisor.
Considering that GA monitoring is conducted at the cornorate level of Teledyne Isotopes, a response from then describing hot: OA authority, including stop work,is implemented at the local labs would be appreciated.
This observation is described in the attached Audit Deficiency Report Form A-lll-83.
Please complete the " Corrective Action" portion of the form and return the original copy to me by the scheduled response date.

Mr. Leonid G. Huebner, M.S. July 21, 1983 In reviewing your QA manual for this survey, I noted that section 14 does not address the actual measures taken to indicate the current status of inspections and tents by use of Fom No. 16.
Since the OA manual is presently l'oing revised, I suggest you review this section to assure it satisfies the requirement of 10CFR50-3,Section XIV.
Thank you for your courtesy during my visit.
Upon receipt of your corrective action I shall suhnit this survey data to the CASE Nuclear Section.
Very truly yours, f f/j:,z 1

Quality Assurance Survey -- Teledyne Isotopes Midwest Laboratory, July 19, 1983
Dear Mr. Robinson:
Attached is our reply to audit deficiency report A-111-83.
It is the plan of Teledyne Isotopes to coordinate the quality assurance function of the Midwest Laboratories and Teledyne Isotopes at Westwood.
This' will require a revision of the quality assurance manual and the quality control manual. The best features of the program at each labor-atory will be combined into one set of manuals.
This will require a study of each program and issuance of a joint set of manuals.
It is hoped that this will be accomplished as expeditiously as possible. A copy of the revised manuals will be sent to your company as soon as they are completed. Until this is accomplished, the program that exists at each laboratory will be enforced to assure accurate and reliable results are supplied to our customers.
The audit check list (Fonn HES-QA-16) will be cocpletely revised in the new quality control manual.
If we can be of further service, please let us know.
Sincerely, Helen G.
