SUBJECT:

COMANCHE PEAK STEAM ELECTRIC STATION DOCKET NOS. 50-445 AND 50-446 CPRT OVERVIEW QUALITY TEAM (0QT)

Dear Mr. Noonan:

This is in response to your June 9, 1986, letter to me regarding activities of the CPRT Overview Quality Team (0QT). Your letter requested we take action on four items. Those items and our associated actions are as follow:

1. You requested that the CPRT Senior Review Team (SRT) establish and implement a detailed audit program for the Technical Review Team (TRT) issue-specific action plans (ISAPs). On June 18, 1986, the SRT directed that the TERA and ERC CORT audit programs be expanded to encompass the TRT ISAPs. Consequently, the TERA audit program was expanded to cover ongoing TRT ISAP implementation activities in the Civil, Structural, Mechanical, and Miscellaneous areas and the ERC audit program was expanded to cover ongoing TRT ISAP implementation activities in the Electrical and Testing areas. One l

audit has already been conducted in the Testing area and plans for future audits of TRT ISAP implementation are reflected in the i

attached 0QT schedule (Attachment 1). These as well as other CPRT audit activities are designed to be in-process activities; therefore, unless specific audit findings indicate a need to audit completed TRT ISAP activities, audits will not be conducted of the implementation of a TRT ISAP after its Results Report has been submitted to the SRT for review and approval. Our actions taken in response to this matter complement measures previously instituted by the SRT which are described in Appendix G of the CPRT Program Plan to ensure the quality of implementation of TRT ISAPs.

2. You requested a master schedule for 0QT review activities. During the period of time that 0QT is functioning, each type of CPRT activity subject to 0QT review will be reviewed at least once. ,

Additional reviews will be scheduled for those activities that i warrant additional 0QT attention. Attachment 1 is a current three- I month schedule of 0QT review efforts. At this state of CPRT Program Plan implementation it is difficult to accurately project a schedule l beyond a three-month period. You will note that the review areas are commensurate with the 0QT review responsibilities delineated in the program document, " Overview Quality Team Program for Comanche Peak Response Team Activities" (Attachment 2). This schedule will be updated during each formal monthly 0QT meeting.

3. You requested procedural controls be established for timely resolution by SRT of matters identified by the 0QT. Section 3.7 of Attachment 2 describes the normal process utilized by the 0QT to resolve problems identified by the 0QT. That section also describes the 0QT responsibility to refer to the SRT those problems that the 0QT cannot resolve with the Review Team Leaders. Section 3.11 of Attachment 2 describes how 0QT tracks all 0QT open items, which include those items referred to the SRT for resolution, to assure they are resolved. Recommendations by the 0QT to the SRT will likewise be tracked on the 0QT open item list. The SRT has delegated to the 0QT the responsibility to track 0QT open items and to notify the SRT when timely resolution is not forthcoming. We believe these controls assure that 0QT problems are resolved in a timely fashion.

4. You requested a procedure describing the responsibilities and authority of the 00T. Attachment 2 is a recent revision of the 0QT program document. The 0QT is not a line organization and does not have the authority to direct any CPRT activities. It is a review and advisory body. Attachment 2 delineates the review responsibilities of the 0QT and describes its responsibility to resolve 0QT identified problems directly with the Review Team Leaders. We believe Attachment 2 accurately describes the responsibilities and authority of the 0QT.

Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call either me or John Beck.

I Very truly yours U
