ATTN: Mr. T. Fisher President and General Manager 1441 West Alameda Tempe, Arizona 85282 Gentlemen:

This refers to the inspection conducted by K. R. Naidu of this office on November 3-5, 1986, of your facility at Tempe, Arizona and to the discussions of our findings with you and members of your staff at the conclusion of the inspection.

The purpose of this inspection was to verify that the corrective action outlined in your letters dated May 24 and June 7,1984 to noncompliances identified during an inspection conducted on April 9-13, 1984 have been implemented, to obtain additional information on the Veritrak transmitters which have exhibited setpoint drift problems, and to verify the implementation of your quality assurance program in selected areas. Areas examined during the inspection and our findings are discussed in the enclosed report. Within these areas, the inspection con-sisted of an examiration of procedures and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observations by the inspector.

The inspection determined that the Veritrak transmitters supplied to Seabrook were manufactured by Westinghouse and that subsequent tests by Tobar at stabi-lized ambient temperatures indicated that the deviation from the reference accuracy exceeded the acceptance requirements at certain temperatures. These deviations necessitated the replacement of Veritrak transmitters. .

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the Commission's regulations, a copy of this letter and the enclosed inspection report will be placed in the NRC's Public Document Room.

Should you have any questions concerning this inspection, we will be pleased to discuss then with you.

Sincerely, O

f obert F. Heishman, Chief 8612290283 861223 Vendor Program Branch 00g TOBAR DR Division of Quality Assurance, Vendor and Technical Training Center Programs Office of Inspection and Enforcement
