APPENDIX A NUS Corporation Docket No. 99900516/85-01 NOTICE OF NONCONFORMANCE Based on the results of the NRC inspection conducted on November 18-20, 1985, it appears that certain of your activities are not conducted in accordance with NRC requirements.

A. Criterion III of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 states, in part, " Design changes, including field changes, shall be subject to design control measures commensurate with those applied to the original design and be approved by the organization that performed the original design unless the applicant designates another responsible organization."

Contrary to the above, design control document ASD-5492-3.was changed in the field by Tracer Technology personnel without the benefit of proper NUS review.

B. Criterion V of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 states, " Activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings of a type appropriate to the circumstances and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures, or drawings. Instructions, procedures, or drawings shall include appropriate cuantitative or qualitative acceptance criteria for determining that important activities have been satisfactorily accomplished."

Chapter 5 of the NUS Corporate QA Policy Manual requires a " Semiannual report to the Corporate Executive for Division Operations on the status of Operating Unit programs and procedures and the effectiveness thereof.

These reports will include summaries of audit findings and associated corrective action, an analysis of any significant unsatisfactory trends with recommended resolutions, and a review of the extent and effectiveness of program monitoring by Operating Unit Quality Assurance Program Managers or Representatives.'

Contrary to the above, only a single QA status report for Operating Divisions was prepared in 1982 and 1984, none was prepared in 1983, and the single 1985 report was in the process of being prepared at the time of the inspection.
