Dear Mr. Tritch:
SUBJECT:
NOTICE OF NONCONFORMANCE (NRC INSPECTION REPORT 99900404/92-02)
This letter addresses the inspection of the Westinghouse Process Centrol Division (W-PCD) at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, conducted by Messrs. R. C. Wilson, R. N. Moist, R. K. Frahm, Jr., and R. E. DePriest of this office on November 16-19, 1992, and the discussion of their findings with the general manager of W-PCD and members of your staffs on November 19, 1992. The purpose of the inspection was to review previous inspection concerns regard-ing the dedication of commercial grade components for nuclear safety-related applications and actions taken by W-PCD relating to 10 CFR Part 21 reports.
Areas examined during the NRC inspection and our findings are discussed in the enclosed report. This inspection consisted of an examination of procedures and records, interviews with per-sonnel, and observations by the inspectors.
The inspectors found that the implementation of W-PCD's quality assurance program failed to meet certain NRC requirements.
Specifically, in six instances W-PCD failed to document that possible changes to purchased commercial grade replacement parts being dedicated for safety-related use were controlled, identi-fled, or evaluated for safety implications. In four instances W-PCD. failed to maintain records of dedication test results, and in two instances W-PCD did not perform dedication activities in accordance with approved procedures. Although these are noncon-formances in your program which should be corrected affecting a total of 96 safety-related replacement parts, we-note that they are limited to documentation problems, and that W-PCD's dedica-tion program is now almost fully implemented.
The specific findings and references to the pertinent require- }
ments are identified in the enclosed Notice of Nonconformance (Notice).
