SUBJECT:
CALVERT CLIFFS CONFIGURATION CONTROL
j
The report of the Special Team Inspection (STI) at Calvert Cliffs (50-317/89-200
and50-318/89-200) included 14 unresolved items designated by the inspection
team. This memorandum applies specifically to Unresolved Item No. 14, which
involves potential facility configuration control problems caused by poorly
controlled maintenance activities.
A
Based on discussions I and my staff have had with you and your staff and with
i
Region I, I want to reiterate that the STI team still has some concerns
'
regarding the issue of configuration control at Calvert Cliffs. We do not
feel that this issue is of immediate concern (i.e., it does not need to be
a restart issue); but we do consider that further inspection effort is required
.
in this area to verify that the actual plant configuration is functionally
!.
the same as the documented configuration. That verification could be done by
an NRC team, or the licensee could perform the verifications as part of their
overall self-improvement plan initiatives.
In either case, walkdowns of selec-
.
ted systems should be done to compare the as-built systems to the design and
installation drawings, and selected drawings should, in turn, be checked against
,
the design basis.

If Region I decides to perform the primary verifications, Special Inspection
Branch RSIB (SIB) will provide assistance, either with branch personnel or with con-
tract personnel.
If the licensee performs the primary verifications, the
NRC should be informed of the systems selected and the schedule for the veri-
fications, and should assess the adequacy of the licensee's verifications.
.
If you have any questions regarding the above, please call.
