l The following information should be provided to the Nuclear Licensing Administrator when a deficiency is considered to be reportable under Part 21:
- 1) Name and Address of . It dividual informing the Commission (to be filled in by the Nuclear Licensing Administrator),
- a. Telecon: DJMalone
- Palisades Plant Consumers Power Company 1
- b. Written: BDJohnson, P24-606 l
Consumers Power Company 1945 W Parnall Road 4 Jackson, MI 49201
- 2) Facility Identification, activity or basic component which fails to comply or contains defects is:
Masoneflan valve internals (parts) procured from Sample - Webtrol Inc for use on the Palisades Nuclear Plant, i
- 3) The fire constructing facility or supplying the basic component which failed to comply or contained defect is:
! Sample - Vebtrol Inc
- 4) a. Nature of defect or failure to comply is:
, Manoneflan valve internals (parts) procured from Sample - Webtrol as CQ (commercial grade) or non - Q were not genuine Mar.onellan parts.
Parts were manufactured by CVS Inc and Cor-Val.
I
- b. The safety hazard which was or could be created is:
i
. Parts dedicated for use in' basic components may not meet Masoneflan specifications.
- 5) The date when information of defect or, f ailure to comply was obtained is:
Responsible CPCo personnel informed at 0830 on October 17, 1988.

- subject to Part 21.
j To date 12 purchase orders for 63 pieces have been identified which l vere procured zrom 1983 to 1988 as Masoneflan parts, however, parts were not genuine. 24 of the 63 pieces were purchased CO and dedicated. 20
- pieces (CQ and non-Q) of the original 63 had been issued to work orders. The 6 CQ parts of these 20 cay be installed in basic 4
components.-
- 7) a. The corrective action planned or taken is:
a All suspect materini remaining in the varehousa has been pulled and j
is being controlled. Location of issued material is being identified for disposition or replacement if parts have not yet been replaced.

2 t he part s distributor, Sample-Webtrol Controls, Inc (S-W) regarding the s u s te c t parts. On Oc t o be r 17, 1988, S-W had confirmed that several CPCo purchase orders f or Masoneilan replacement part s had been filled with parts manuf actured by corporations other than Masoneilan. This issue was presented to Plant Hanagement at the Plant Corrective Action Review Board (CARB) meeting a t 0830 on Oc t obe r 17, 1988.
At 0930 on Oc tober 18, 1988, in a conference call between S-W and CPCo, S-W inf ormed CPCo t hat they had identified ten purchase orders between 1983 and 1988 where part s other than genuine Masoneilan part s had been supplied to the Palisades Plant when Masoneilan parts numbers had originally been specified.
Of these ten purchase + orders, two were identified as QC with the remaining eight NQ. S-W further identified that the part s were manuf actured by either CVC, Inc , or COR-Val, both of Houma , LA.
The f ollowing represents information, statement s, and questions provided by the representatives present.
CPCo
- 1. Since the Oct ober 18, 1988, conference call, two additional purchase orders were identified for a total of 12 (two CQ, ten NQ).

A total of 142 purchase orders for Kasoneilan parts have been placed through S-W since 1977 (24 Q, 40 OQ, and 78 NQ).
- 2. Through the 12 purchase orders, a total of 63 parts were not manufactured by Ma soneil an. Of the 63 parts,12 have been issued to Work Orders (six CQ parts).
- 3. Approximately 45 percent of all Masoneilan part s procured for use at Palisades.were through S-W. All orders through S-W were procured for stock with a delivery time of approximately seven weeks.
Hasoneilan
