\\f..M yC, 2. e3 Thomas E. Murley, Regional Administrator, Region I-MEMORANDUM FOR:
Richard C..DeYoung, Director FROM:
Office of Inspection and Enforcement FALSIFICATION 0F NDE RECORDS AT SEABROOK
SUBJECT:
REFERENCE:
01 Report 1-83-008; ATS DIRI-83-A-0046 IE has reviewed the OI report of investigation of the subject allegation and requests that Region I tak,e the following actions regarding this investigation:,
The investigation identified the possible lack of an audit program for the 1..
Criterion XVIII of Appendix 8 to 10 CFR 50-work of the NDE contractor.
requires that a quality assurance program for safety-related activities be subject to periodic auditing to determine the effectiveness of. the qualfty assurance progras. The auditing may be performed by the contractor itself.
(using qualified personnel who have not perfomed the original work) or by another organization such as the licensee or A/E (UE&C). Region I should
}
determine that an adequate auditing program is being properly implemented.
l 4
Since the investigation revealed that.NDE records were falsified by the 2.
offending technician, Region I should determine that appropriate action has been taken by the-licensee and its contractors to determine that '
welds assigned for inspection by this individual have been or wil1~ be y
properly inspected.
The investigation also identified the lack of effective measures to assure 3.
the use of qualified personnel to perform safety-related activities as required by Criterion II of Appendix 8 to 10 CFR 50.
Region I should determine the existence and implementation of appropriate measures (e,g,,
checking of experience, training, practical testing) to assure that only qualified personnel are assigned to perform safety-related activities.
See Encloure 1 for a listing of prior IE notices on this subject.
I would appreciate being informed of your followup work on this subject.
