II UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY
COMMISSION
OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION
WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555 September
1, 1992 NRC INFORMATION
NOTICE 92-66: ACCESS-DENIED
TO NRC INSPECTORS
AT FIVE STAR PRODUCTS, INC. AND CONSTRUCTION
PRODUCTS RESEARCH, FAIRFIELD, CONNECTICUT
Addressees
All holders of operating
licenses or construction
permits for nuclear power reactors and all recipients
of NUREG-0040, "Licensee, Contractor
and Vendor Inspection
Status Report" (White Book).
Purpose
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is issuing this information
notice to alert addressees
to the NRC's concern that Five Star Products, Incorporated (Five Star), and its laboratory
contractor, Construction
Products Research (CPR), denied NRC inspectors
necessary
access to the contracted
test laboratory
and test data for grout and concrete mix products.
It is expected that recipients
will review this information
and consider actions, as-appropriate.
However, suggestions
contained
in this information
notice are not NRC requirements;
therefore, no specific action or written response is required.Description
of Circumstances
On Tuesday, August 18, 1992, NRC inspectors
arrived at the Five Star facility, located at Fairfield, Connecticut, to conduct an inspection
pursuant to the provisions
of Section 21.41, "Inspection," of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 21 (10 CFR Part 21). The NRC promulgated
10 CFR Part 21 under the authority
of Section 206 of the Energy Reorganization
Act of 1974, 42 U.S.C. 5846, and Sections 161b and 161o of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, (42 U.S.C. 2201(b) and 2201(o)).
Section 21.41 authorizes
NRC inspections
of facilities
supplying "basic components," or parts thereof, for commercial
nuclear power plants as that term is defined in 10 CFR Part 21.Five Star supplies grout and concrete mix materials, tested at its facility by CPR, to the commercial
nuclear industry.
Five Star certifies
these materials as being manufactured
and controlled
in accordance
with the requirements
of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50.2Ar 9209010039
_7DA\A)
ill IN 92-66 September
1, 1992 On Tuesday, August 18, 1992, and Wednesday, August 19, 1992, the NRC inspectors
were denied access necessary
for an inspection
of the CPR test laboratory
and test records on the Five Star premises.
On Wednesday, August 19, 1992, Five Star managers told the NRC inspectors
that they would not be allowed to continue the inspection
as of the end of the day even though the NRC inspectors
indicated
that they had not completed
the inspection.
Discussion
The NRC conducted
this inspection
to determine
the extent to which Five Star has supplied material or services to licensed nuclear plants, the adequacy of its quality assurance
and testing programs, and the adequacy of its products.Purchase orders reviewed during the limited inspection
indicated
that licensees
have purchased
concrete products from Five Star and are invoking the requirements
of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 and 10 CFR Part 21 on the orders to Five Star. The NRC learned that licensees
and licensee contractors
auditing Five Star who requested
access to CPR's test laboratory
and test records were denied necessary
access to the test laboratory
and records.During the limited inspection
at Five Star, the NRC inspectors
found that not all licensees
purchasing
from Five Star had performed
implementation
audits of Five Star. In October, 1991, a member of the Nuclear Utility Procurement
Issues Council (NUPIC) performed
a NUPIC audit and concluded
that the Five Star quality assurance
program and its implementation
were unacceptable
and did not meet certain requirements
of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50. However,~thL-NRC-insp-ectors--determi-ned--that-some-l-fcensees-have-accepted
the-Five-Star~-
-quality assurance
program as meeting all applicable
Appendix B requirements.
The NRC inspectors
reviewed Five Star customer purchase orders for the period from 1988 to 1992 and determined
that at least seven licensees
and one licensee contractor
issued purchase orders to Five Star for grout and concrete mix products and specified
compliance
to Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 and 10 CFR Part 21. Purchasers
may have accepted the use of Five Star products upon performing
audits that did not include reviewing
the test laboratory
and test records. Therefore, the affected audits were not adequate to determine
the quality of the Five Star products.The denial of access to NRC inspectors
appears to be a willful violation
of Section 21.41, which permits the NRC access to Five Star's records, premises, activities, and basic components
as necessary
to effect the purposes of this part. Upon being denied access, the NRC could not examine the extent and adequacy of the products produced by Five Star and therefore
does not have reasonable
assurance
that the products produced are adequate for use in safety-related
applications
in nuclear power plants. Consequently, the NRC is interested
in receiving
any information
on tests or instances
of failure of Five Star products.

implementation
audits of Five Star. A Nuclear Utility Procurement
Issues Council (NUPIC) member audit performed
in October, 1991, concluded
that the Five Star quality assurance
program and its implementation
was unacceptable
and did not meet certain requirements
of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50. However, the NRC inspectors
determined
that some licensees
have accepted the Five Star quality assurance
program as meeting all applicable
Appendix B requirements.
Five Star customer purchase orders for the period between 1988 and the present were reviewed by the NRC inspectors.
From this review, it was determined
that at least 7 licensees
and one licensee contractor
issued purchase orders to Five Star for grout and concrete mix products and specified
compliance
to Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 and 10 CFR Part 21. Purchasers
may have accepted the use of Five Star products without review of the test laboratory
and test records. Therefore
the affected audits may be inadequate, and the acceptability
of Five Star products indeterminate.
The denial of access to NRC inspectors
appears to be a willful violation
of Section 21.41, which permits NRC access to Five Star's records, premises, activities, and basic components
as necessary
to effectuate
the purposes of this part. Because of the denied access, the NRC was unable to examine the extent and adequacy of the products produced by Five Star and therefore
does not have reasonable
assurance
that the products produced are adequate for use in safety-related
applications
in nuclear power plants.The NRC is interested
in receiving
any information
with respect to tests or instances
of failure of Five Star products.
However, suggestions
contained
in this information
notice are not NRC requirements;
therefore, no specific action or written response is required.If you have any questions
