60137 Perry Nuclear Power Plant Docket No. 50-440; 50-441 1.E.Bulletin 83-07; 83-07 Supplements 1 and 2
Dear Mr. Keppler:
The following information is provided as our final response to I.E.Bulletin 83-07 and Supplements 1 and 2 dealing with apparently fraudulent products sold by Ray Miller, Inc.
As reported previously in our letter dated June 7,1985 (PY-CEI/01E-0061L) on this subject, we were investigating one potential use of f raudulent material supplied to the Perry Nuclear Power Plant (PNPP). ~This application involved the possible use of material from Ray Miller Inc. in the strainer backwash assemblies for the Emergency Service Water (ESW) and ESW Screen Wash Systems.
Previous investigation has determined that Ray Miller, Inc. material is not ased in any other systems at PNPP nor is any in stock.
Our Architect /Er.gineer, Gilbert / Commonwealth, Inc., has clarified the classification on the strainers to be non-active safety-related, requiring qualification for seismic stress of internal backwash components. As discussed in our letter dated September 19, 1985 (PY-CEI/0IE-0108L) concerning Deviation Analysis Report 240, the seismic stress qualification for these strainers has been completed.
This bulletin requested an evaluation of the safety significance of the presence of Ray Miller Inc. materials installed in safety-related systems, assuming fraud or assuming material failure, as well as a determination of the disposition of said material. Results of our investigation conclude that the strainers do not contain any " identified" fraudulent material. Furthermore, the presence of any " unidentified" fraudulent material within the strainer assemblies is very unlikely. However, if material within the strainers which could potentially have been supplied by Ray Miller Inc. should fail, these parts should be trapped within the strainer assemblies. Any material which 8510220141 851014j gI171985 40 PDR ADOCK O G

significance on plant. safety since the operability of components downstreum would not be adversely affected. Also, since the backwash assembly within the strainer-is not designed to be a pressure retaining component, loss of a system
. pressure boundary is not a concern. Therefore, a use-as-is disposition has been justified assuming " unidentified" fraudulent material was supplied by Ray
' Miller, Inc. for the strainer assemblies.
If you have any questions, please feel free to call.
