2. Facility Operations and Internal Controls '

The inspector reviewed the licensee's Fundamental Nuclear Material Control Plan (FNMCP) and procedures applicable to the storage and internal control of special nuclear material (SNM) in seven material balance areas (MBA's) and six item control areas (ICA's).

The licensee maintains a current perpetual inventory for both the facility and'for each MBA and ICA. All stored materials were identified by measured SNM quantities and enrichments.

The inspector determined through a review of records that the licensee had properly preparsd and maintained control of SNM transfer documents. The inspector reviewed all of the MBA and ICA transfer documents for SNM issued in the physical inventory period of November 20, 1987-January 15, 1988 for the following attributes: number of items, quantity of SNM transferred, location, timeliness, and signature of authorized custodians / delegates involved in the transfer. The values were compared to the central control

, record system and also compared to the physical inventory reconciliation for the period ending January 15, 1988. No discrepancies were identified.

3. Physical Inventory The inspector audited the records of the physical inventory taken on January 15, 1988 for accuracy and assurance that all items were accounted for on the inventory.

The licensee's supporting records for the physical inventory consisted of preli:ted sheets completed by the designated inventory teams and the handwritten schedules that compared the book values and inventory values within contracts for SNM quantities. The book values were obtained from ending contract balances in the general ledger and computer listing, and the physical inventory values were obtained frum the summary sheet of the inventory schedule.

3 e

The inspector independently reviewed the prelisted inventory sheet totals for MBA 1 thru 7 and ICA 1, 3 thru 7, and traced these totals to the summary sheet of the inventory schedules. No significant differences were identified.
