Allegation Category:

QA/QC 7, QA Implementation 2.

Allegation Number: AQ-112 3.

Characterization:

It is alleged that plant operations managemert does not accept the deficiency reports written by the construction startup turnover surveillance group on operations activities.

4.

Assessment of Safety Significance:

The NRC Technical Review Team (TRT) reviewed Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) Chapter 17 and Cor.'anche Peak Steam Electric Station (CPSES) quality assurance plans for design and construction, startup, and operations administrative controls (References 1 through 4).

The TRT also reviewed two CPSES startup administrative proce-dures, two station administration procedures, and five related quality assurance procedures (References 5 through 7).

The TRT determined that the quality assurance program responsibilities of the CPSES operations surveillance groups were adequately defined.

The TRT reviewed four construction and startup/ turnover surveillance (CSTS) group reports, eight surveillance deficiency reports (SDRs), and the corrective action /stopwork logs (References 8 and 9).

The TRT found three SDRs written by CSTS that were accepted by nuclear operations.

Based on this review and on personal interviews, the TRT determined that, in general, operations personnel were responsive to C5f5 surveillance reports and SDRs, and respective responsibilit6 were adequately defined.

The TRT also found that SDRs84-010 and 84-012 had been rescinded by office memorandum DQA-84189.

CSTS issued this memorandum on July 12, 1984, fol-lowing a meeting between CSTS and operations management regarding these i

l SDRs. The basis for rescinding SDRs84-010 and 84-012, was documented in

" Deficiency Reports (CSTS-SDR)84-010 and 84-012," attached to office memo-randum OIM-84116, dated October 1, 1984.

The TR1 interviewed those in at-tendance at a July 1984, meeting regarding the decision to rescind SDRs84-010 and 84-012. Based on the interviews and a review of OIM-84116, the

(

TRT determined that the action taken for tha above SDRs was appropriate.

In addition, the other five deficiency reports reviewed appeared to have adequate dispositioning and corrective action to prevent recurrence.

5.

Conclusion and Staff Positions:

The TRT concludes that operations plant management does accept and properly respond to deficiency reports from the CSTS group; thus, the allegation was not substantiated.

Both sur-veillance groups were continuing to interface in accordance with their defined responsibilities related to preoperational testing activities at CPSES.

This allegation was obtained on July 7,1984, by an NRC CPSES Senior Resident Inspector from an individual who wished to remain anonymous.

Therefore, a closeout interview was not conducted.
