Re: Docket 50-188/89-01
Dear Sirs:
This is in response to the notice of violation described in Appendix A to
your letter of 21 March 1989, namely, that the University Facility Key
Control and Distribution Office had not established control over keys issued
for access to the Nuclear Reactor Facility.
We acknowledge the violeion to the extent that records of keys in issue
were inadequately maintamed. Our long experience of cooperation with the
bonded locksmiths employed by the University leads us to assert that no keys
were issued without proper authority. We in the Nuclear Reactor Facility
are willing to accept that the responsibility for the violation rests on our
failure to institute an audit procedure to assure adequate record keeping.
As of 3:00 p.m. on 9 Feb 89, records of the Nuclear Reactor Facility and the
University Facility Key Control and Distribution Office were in accord and
full license compliance was assured. As of 15 March 89, the Reactor Facility
locks were changed and new keys were issued to authorized personnel.
The Reactor Facility Procedure for " Entrance to the Reactor Bay" is being
revised to include provisions for key control, accountability, and compliance
audit.
The new provisions were implemented on 15 Mar 89.
Revised
procedures have been submitted to the Reactor Saf* guards Committee for
their consideration and approval is expected by 15 Apr 89.
Sincerely,
bN
Richard E. Faw, Director
