Document Control Desk Washington, DC 20555 Gentlemen:
Subject:
HPPD Response to Inspection Report 50-298/88-28 This letter is written in response to your letter dated October 21, 1988, transmitting Inspection Report 50-298/88 28.
Therein you indicated that certain of our activities were in violation of NRC requirements.
Following is a statement of the violation and our response in accordance with 10CFR2.201.
Statement of Violation Failure to Document Actions per Procedure 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, and the licensee's approved Quality Assurance Plan, require that activities shall be accomplished in accor-dance with approved instructioni, procedures, and drawings.
Nuclear Performance Procedure 10.27, "Cask IF-300 Handling and Shipping,"
Revision 11, dated August 11, 1988, requires sign-offs in steps G.6, J.2, and J.5, of the procedure.
Contrary to the acove, on September 20, 1988, steps G.6, J.2, and J.5 of Nuclear Performance Procedure 10.27 were not signed off even though those steps had been completed on September 19, 1988.
This is a Severity level V violation.
(Supplement I) (298/8828-01)
Reason for the Violation This violation occurred as the result of a procedural inadequacy in that Nuclear Performance Procedure 10.27 did not clearly specify that the deficient steps required signatures prior to proceeding with subsequent steps in the procedure.
It should be noted that the actions directed by steps G.6, J.2 and J 5 were actually performed, however, the steps were not signed at the time of performance. A verbal concurrence did exist l
between the responsible individuals prior to proceeding beyond these steps.

i U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission fage 2 November 21, 1988 Corrective Steps Which Have Been Taken and The Results Achieved Signatures were obtained for steps G.2, J.2 and J.5 in the subject Nuclear Performance Procedure 10.27 "Cask IF 3000 Handling and Shipping'.
This occurrence and the required corrective action have been discussed with Maintenance Department personnel who are qualified as floor supervisors for Cooper Nuclear Station spent fuel shipping activities.
Corrective Steps Taken to Avoid Further Violation Nuclear Performance Procedure 10.27 is being revised to clearly delineate that the deficient steps require sign-offs prior to proceeding to the next step. Additionally, the sequence of some steps within the procedure will be changed for clarification and ease of understanding.
Date When Full Compliance Will Be Achieved Cooper Nuclear Station is currently in full compliance. The revision to Nuclear Performance Procedure 10.27 will be achieved by December 15, 1988.
If you have any questions regarding this response, please contact me or G. R. Horn at the site.
