| SUBJECT: REPORT NOS. 50-327/86-42 AND 50-328/86-42 We have completed our evaluation of your October 24, 1986, response to our Notice of Violation issued on September 26, 1986, concerning activities at your Sequoyah facilit After careful review of the basis for your denial of Violation 50-327,328/
| | |
| 86-42-01 (Example 2), we have concluded, for the reasons presented in the enclosure to this letter, the violation occurred as stated in the Notice of Violatio Therefore, pursuant to 10 CFR 2.201, please submit to this office within 30 days of the date of this letter, a written statement describing the reasons for the violation, the corrective steps which have been taken and the results achieved, corrective steps which will be taken to avoid further violations, and the date when full compliance will be achieve In accordance with Section 2.790 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice," Part 2, Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be placed in the NRC's Public Document Roo The response directed by this letter is not subject to the clearance procedure for the Office of Management and Budget issued under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980, PL 96-51 | | We have completed our evaluation of your April 6, 1987 response tc our February 26, 1987 letter concerning Violation 50-327,328/86-42-01 (Example 2). It has been. concluded that your reason for cenial is valid based on the following additional discussions and information: |
| | 1) The information presented in your April 6, 1987 respons ) Information obtained during the NRC inspection in April 1987 (87-22). |
| | |
| | 3) Discussions with ASCO concerning the subject valv ) Discussions with Franklin Research Center concerning ASCO solenoid valve Accordingly, we are withdrawing Example 2 of the subject violatio We do, however, wish to clarify a statement made on page 2 of the enclosure to your April 6,1987 response. In paragraph 2 of Item 1, TVA makes the statement that the ASCO NP8316 solenoid qualification maintenance data sheets (QMDSs) |
| | and to 'que values for the valve bonnet-body screws were reviewed as part of the NRC EQ maintenance inspection conducted Deceiaber 8-12, 1987. This is incorrect, in that the NRC inspectors did not look at any ASCO qualification binders, QMDds, or valve bonnet-body screw torque values duri.ng the inspectio The only solenoid valve data reviewed during the inspection were for non-ASCO valve While this has no bearing on the above conclusion, it siauld be clarified for the recor We appreciate your cooperation in this matte |

| E5L .Io 357 ENCLOSURE Your denial of Violation 50-327,328/86-42-01 (Example 2), is based on the grounds that the work instructions used for installation of the solenoid valves were adequate; however, this is questionable in light of the fact that the vendor bulletin (not pr.rt of the installation package) for the ASCO model 8316 valves for nuclear power plants, documents that the four valve bonnet (end plate) screws have torque values of 95 plus or minus 10 inch pounds in a crisscross manne Since the vendor was specific with regard to torquing values and the tightening pattern for the bonnet screws, these items are considered significant and should be followed. In addition, it is understood from informal discussions with Sequoyah that they have actually gone back arid tightened the bolts to the vendor value You further state that the environmental qualification of the valve was not affected by the reconfiguration of the mounting support as performed under work package 11806, since the area of the valve that would have been affected by the improper installation of the bolts is internally isolated from the portion of the solenoid valve which contains that electric coil. Since the valve is environmentally qualified as a whole device, this argument is considered not applicable to the situatio In fact, in a letter to Dr. J. Nelson Grace, RII Administrator, from R. L. Gridley, Director, Nuclear safety and Licensing, Subject: Watts Bac Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 - Improperly Installed Solenoid Valves - WBRD-50-390/85-52, WBRD-50-391/85-14 - Final Report, dated May 2, 1986, TVA states that ASCO solenoid valves are supplied to them as a complete qualified package with supplier-imposed instructions which must be followed to ensure that their application in the plant conforms with qualification tests. The position taken in this letter seems to be contrary to the TVA Sequoyah position taken in the denial of the violation. The NRC concurs with the original TVA position dated May 2,1986, and disagrees with the Sequoyah position that the environ-mental qualification of the valves was not degraded. We, therefore, believe the violation occurred as state T !. .;r

V JUL 2 2 U37 Tennessee Valley Authority MTTN: Mr. S. A. White Manager of Nuclear Power 6N 38A Lookout P' ace 1101 Market Street Chattanooga, TN 37402-2801 Gentlemen:
SUBJEC INSPECTION REDORT NOS. 50-327/86-42 AND 50-328/86-42 l
We have completed our evaluation of your April 6, 1987 response tc our February 26, 1987 letter concerning Violation 50-327,328/86-42-01 (Example 2). It has been. concluded that your reason for cenial is valid based on the following additional discussions and information:
1) The information presented in your April 6, 1987 respons ) Information obtained during the NRC inspection in April 1987 (87-22).
3) Discussions with ASCO concerning the subject valv ) Discussions with Franklin Research Center concerning ASCO solenoid valve Accordingly, we are withdrawing Example 2 of the subject violatio We do, however, wish to clarify a statement made on page 2 of the enclosure to your April 6,1987 response. In paragraph 2 of Item 1, TVA makes the statement that the ASCO NP8316 solenoid qualification maintenance data sheets (QMDSs)
and to 'que values for the valve bonnet-body screws were reviewed as part of the NRC EQ maintenance inspection conducted Deceiaber 8-12, 1987. This is incorrect, in that the NRC inspectors did not look at any ASCO qualification binders, QMDds, or valve bonnet-body screw torque values duri.ng the inspectio The only solenoid valve data reviewed during the inspection were for non-ASCO valve While this has no bearing on the above conclusion, it siauld be clarified for the recor We appreciate your cooperation in this matte
Sincerely, OfflGINAL SIGNED By q GARY G. ZECH Gary G. Zech, Assistant Director, Inspection Programs D' vision of TVA Projects Office of Special Projects cc: (See page 2)
