2.
Records and Reports The inspector's review covered the material balance period January 6, 1978 to July 13, 1978 and included an audit of the material control records and reports to determine compliance with 10 CFR Part 70.
Nuclear Material Transfer Reports, Form NRC-741, Mate-rial Status Reports, Form NRC-742, and measured discard and loss reports were reviewed for proper signatures, timeliness, format, accuracy and proper posting into records.
Also, the inspector determined that the licensee reconciled and adjusted the records to the results of the physical inventory within 30 calendar days after the start of the July 13, 1978 physical inventory, as re-quired by 10 CFR 70.51(e)(4)(ii).
No items of noncompliance were identified.
3.
Shipper-Receiver Differences Shipments and receipts of special nuclear material for the period January 6, 1978 through July 13, 1978 were reviewed by the inspectors.
There were no significant shipper-receiver differences which required investigation.
The inspectors also reviewed the licensee's records of accumulative differences of receipts of UO2 powder and shipments of recoverable scrap. The data reviewed did not reflect a trend or bias.
No items of noncompliance were identified.
l 4.
Physical Inventory The licensee's supporting data for the physical inventory taken be-ginning July 13, 1978 were reviewed. The inspectors observed three errors due to faulty keypunching of the hand listed inventory.
The errors were brought to the attention of the licensee. The licensee made adjustments to his records to compensate for the errors.
No items of noncompliance were identified.
3 5.
Storace and Internal Control During the review of the allocation of inventory differences result-ing from the physical inventory taken on July 13, 1978, the inspectors observed a loss and compensating gain within the two item control areas (ICA). The licensee was advised by the inspectors that ICAs should not reflect losses or gains and that should they reflect dif-ferences, differences should be reconciled. The matter of differences within ICAs is considered unresolved (Item No. 78-07-01) and will be reviewed during the next inspection.
No items of noncompliance were identified.
6.
Unresolved Items Unresolved items are matters about which more information is required in order to ascertain wihether they are acceptable items, items of noncompliance, or deviations. An unresolved item disclosed during the inspection is discussed in Paragraph 5.
7.
Exit Interview The inspectors met with licensee representatives (denoted in Paragraph
- 1) at the conclusion of the inspection on September 21, 1978. The inspectors summarized the scope and findings of the inspection.
