Control No. 84-09-27-01 Also other deficiencies were noted such as:
1)
Calibration reports missing from the flies in the QC vault.
2)
ICR's are not being written for all calibrated tools that are found out of calibration or over due calibration.
- 3) When ICR's and NCR's are written, evaluations are not always made to determine the validity of previous inspections or test results.
- 4) Missing tool reports are not generally written by the craft foreman and not being followed up with ICR's.
(
5)
IKC procedure 4.9.1 Revision C paragraph 4.1 gives a tolerance of !44 or 1 lb. for calibrated torque wrenches. Torqm wrenches are being accepted up to 110% per S&L BY/BR/3A standard.
Examples were also given in the letter of torque wrenches being issued to the field that have open NCR's and ICR's outstanding, this is totally in violation of procedure 4.9.1 REV C and 10 CFR 50 critaria 12.
This susmation is a partial representation of Mr. Seltmann's letter and is not considered as an isolated case, but a few of many problems caused by Mr. Seeders' unattention and substandard work practices. Through this many costly hours will need be expended resear&ing evaluating and resolving the necessary corrective action. This situation is a potential 50.55E. I am therefore terminating Mr. Seeders' esployment with Comstock Engineering, Inc. at the Braidwood Nuclear power plant.
It is to be understood that this termination is in no way affiliated with the letter Mr. Seeders issued on 8/17/84, and that the termination is solely based on his substandard work of which can be. attested too thru the review of the calibration records and through the aforementioned auditors concerns during the GCO G/O Audit of 9/10 thru 9/14/84 of whid were addressed in the audit exit but findings were not issued.
