Gentlemen:

This refers to the inspection conducted by Mr. S. D. Alexander of this office

on July 29-August 1,1985, of your facilities at Cincinnati, Ohio and to the

discussions of our findings with Ms. Linda Rieser and other members of

your staff a't the conclusion of the inspection.

The purpose of this inspection was to review the qualification program on an

NDT International acoustic flow sensor for the safety relief valve status

indication system (SRVSIS) at South Texas Project Units 1 and 2 and to

review your corrective actions in response to the violations and nonconformances

identified in the previous inspection. Areas examined during the inspection and

our findings are discussed in the enclosed report. Within these areas, the

inspection consisted of an examina. tion of procedures and representative records,

interviews with personnel, and observations by the inspector.

During the inspection, it was found that the implementation of your QA program

failed to meet certain NRC requirements. Specifically, there was one instance

in which your instrument calibration procedures did not contain acceptance

criteria. The inspection findings and references to the pertinent requirements

are identified in the enclosures to this letter.

Please provide us within 30 days from the date of this letter a written

statement containing:

(1) a description of steps that have been or will be

taken to correct these items; (2) a description of steps that have been or

will be taken to prevent recurrence; and (3) the dates your corrective actions

and preventive measures were or will be completed.

Consideration may be given

to extending your response time for good cause shown.

The responses requested by this letter are not subject to the clearance

procedures of the Office of Management and Budget as required by the Paperwork

Reduction Act of 1980, PL 96-511.
