5. Succort Svstams includine HVAC. Radwasta and Fire Protection The licensee's accifcation of support systams, other than those involving concrete or piping systams (areas 2 and 3 above), are essentially limitad to HVAC, racwasta, and the fire protection systa During the appraisal period, NRC inspections were directed toward review of the licensee's audit program for monitoring the subcontrac:ces installing HVAC and fire protaction systems. The succontrac:ce pr: grams had been evaluated in an early appraisal period and found adequata for the work involved. The licansaa's audit program was also found to be effective in monitoring tassa'

Conclusion

I The SAL.D Soard c:ncluded' that the licansae has demonstratad an overall c:mcination of attributas exhibiting Catagory 1 performance curing the acoraisal perio This evaluation was basac upon tne three primary areas where tne c:nstruction efforts, and, therefore, the NRC inscoction effort, were directad; i.e. , piping, electrical, and ing:rumentation installations. The Scard notad that 1063 of tne 1699 inssectien-hours wers cavetad to these three basic area In regarc Oc the licansee's engoing intaractions wi-a NRR -tne c:nsansus ~
