Dear Bir:
While not required to respond to your recent inspection, as no violations or deviations were noted, the following additional information and comments are given:
Item 2.a of Details - Nuclear Criticality Safety Postinas The two NIS authorizaticns for 2 different components (subfillers and fillers) located on the hood of the x-ray in Unit 2 were consolidated into one authorization which was approved and posted on October 30, 1987.
Item 2.b of Details - Storace of Non-Fuel Components Paragraph 6.4.1 of the UNC Operations Department Procedure (ODP) 300.21 states " All non-fuel components which appear similar to fuel components, e.g.
fillers, elements, assemblies, shall be handled and stored as fuel-bearing components unless authorized otherwise by Nuclear and Industrial Safety in written form H.
The component in question had dimensions and appearance dissimilar to any component presently manufactured at UNC and therefore it is easily identified by UNC personnel as non-fuel and does not need to be handled and stored as fuel.

l Item 3.b of Details - Residual Analyses The high number of "residual" rejects (32) identified between Oct. 15, 1986 und Aug. 13, 1987 was due to special l
contract (B19 & B21) requirement to include sweeping of l
particular equipment immediately after several lots.
These particular special sweepings accounted for all of the 32 rejects.
The usual procedure is to sweep this equipment weekly and store it as scrap material in the fuel vault as fuel scrap with a sample being sent to the chem Lab. for analysis.
These sweepings are normally not handled or l
stored as residuals and are not entered into the residual log.
As the B19 and B21 contracts come to a close, the reject level should return to normal (i.e. no rejects).
Very truly
