- On page 21 the first paragraph. Tolede Edison received a Category 111

rating in the area of procurement,(material control).;,We would like to 3
point out that several changes are la the process of being laplemented and q
t a program to develop a Materials Managesset Organisation is in progress.
QA audit /surve111ance activities will be increased la this area, and the d
i I
Station material control procedure has been modified. The Nuclear Construction Department has lastituted changes la their asnagement

controls and revised their meterial control procedures. The Procurement g
Division will revise procurement procedures and increase the training of personnel responsible for material headling and storage in the Davia-Besse j
Station warehouse.

- On page 22, la the area of tuviromental Controls. Toledo Edison has a
, / p) i significant technical, disagreement with the NRC.
In the last paragraph.
the NRC coactudes that "the lack of quality control over detector r,W l
etficiency calibratiana and s'too istrequent recalibration schedule is
-fp<
cause of ahe recest disagreement". Toledo Edisom has'since'peeformed a y;
recalibration of its lastruments at a coet'of several thousand dollars and
+
hundreds of eenhours.' Every one of the'32 efficiencies was within acceptable limits of agreement with the previous calibration data. Daily
"/
perforesace.checha are,'and have been performed on.the detectors as the means of determining when recalibration would be required. The NRC aust f.,
i recognise that their esbile laboratory utilises a more efficient detector j
(by a factor of 2) them that utilised at Davis-lesse. The MRC also
- [
utilizes a difforent counting geometry. Toledo Edison feels it in thvee 4
variations in analytical technique and equipment which are responsible for 0
l the disagreements and not any incorrect calibration of our equipment.
