RESPONSE TO NRC NOTICE OF VIOLATION e

l INSPECTION REPORT NOS.: 50-445/85-16 AND 50-446/85-13 ,

Dear Mr. Johnson:

We have reviewed your letter of August 12, 1986 and have provided the

additional information you requested regarding Notice of Violation

445/8516-V-03(ItemA)intheattachmenttothisletter. We requested and

received a two week extension in providing this information in a phone

discussion with Mr. I. Barnes on September 2, 1986.

You also requested that we confirm that all references .to training sessions,

meetings, and discussions are appropriately documented and available for

audit. Our responses have indicated when these items are formally documented.

In those cases where we have not indicated formal documentation, such as

l meetings and discussions, key personnel are available to confirm that these

meetings and discussions took place as stated. We consider that training

'

sessions should be documented and the confirming documents are available for

your review.

We believe that our approach is consistent with 20CFR50 Appendix B and meets

l

all applicable regulations.

l Very truly yours, -

.

W. G. Counsil

1. RC Concern -

"

... [Y]our response failed to provide any action taken with respect to

the failure of tie design review process to identify the technical

inadequacy of Design Change Authorization 13,349."

Response

A. corrective Action IAkta add Results Achieved

As stated in our original response, the DCA was re-reviewed and

additional calculations were done to show that the design change was

acceptable. This re-review of the DCA was performed in accordance with

project procedures which insure that the design change receives the

same design control measures as those applicable to the original

design.

B. Action la Prevent Recurrence

As stated in the response to Concern No. 2, we believe the instance

noted in this Violation is an isolated occurance. However, the

engineering personnel involved in the review and processing of DCA

13349 will be counseled regarding the applicable design control

measures.

In the event that the engineering review delineated in Part B of the

response to Concern No. 2 determines this violation is widespread,

additional corrective action will be formulated.
