SUBJECT:
NRC INSPECTION REPORT 99901305/97-01
Dear Dr. Holden:
OnJanuary9,1997,thpU.S.NuclearRegulatoryCommission(NRC)completedan inspection at the C&De Charter Power Systems, Inc. (C&D) facilities at Leola, Pennsylvania, regarding cylindrical lead-acid battery cells, "round cells," that C&D manufactures and supplies to nuclear power plant facilities l
as a contractual manufacturing representative for Lucent Technologies, Incorporated, (Lucent). The round cells are designed, qualified and contractually controlled by Lucent, and are used in Class 1E electrical l
safety-related applications at five nuclear power plant facilities.
The i
enclosed report presents the results of the inspection.
1 The NRC team determined that C&D has manufactured and controlled the nuclear power plant customer orders under its commercial manufacturing controls, in association with Lucent's specifications.
C&D has established and implemented an International Organization for Standardization (IS0)-9001, " Quality Systems-Model for Quality Assurance in Design / Development, Production, Installation and Servicing" quality assurance program at its Leola facility through its corporate office in Blue Bell, Pennsylvania.
Although the team assessed portions of your quality assurance program implementation, your activities were not assessed to Part 50 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Reaulatior.s (10 CFR Part 50), Appendix B quality assurance requirements; therefore, no response to this letter is required.
However, the team determined that Lucent contractually accepted 10 CFR Part 50, Apsendix B quality requirements from the Duke Power Company but did not pass tiose requirements on to C&D.
Therefore, the team reviewed certain portions of C&D's quality activit'ies to Appendix B quality requirements to assess Lucent's compliance with regulatory requirements.
The results of that review are discussed separately in NRC's inspection report of Lucent
