Subject: NPPD Response to IE Inspection Report No. 50-298/87-06

Gentlemen -

This letter is written in response to your letter dated March 16, 1987, .-

transmitting Inspection Report No. 50-298/87-06. Therein you indicated that

one of our activities was in violation of NRC requirements.

The following is the statement of the violation and our response in accordance

with 10 CFR 2.201:

Statement of Violation

Failure to Follow a Maintenance and Test Equipment Procedure

Appendix B Criterion V of 10 CFR Part 50 and the licensee's approved

Quelity Assurance Program require that activitics cffecting quality be

accomplished in accordance with the drawings and procedural instructions.

CNS Procedure 0.4, " Preparation, Review, and Approval of Procedures," -

Revision 7, dated July 2, 1986, states that approved written station

procedures shall be adhered to by all station personnel. Instrument

and Control Procedure 7.5.4.2, " Pressure Test Gauge Calibration," Revision

19, dated May 1, 1986, requires that calibration data be recorded in

the appropriate as-found and as-left data blank.

Contrary to the above, page 11 of Attachment "B" to Instrument and Control

Procedure 7.5.4.2 performed on December 16, 1986, failed to have data

for the zero calibration point recorded in the as-found and as-left data

blank, and page 31 of the above named procedure for the same date also

failed to have data for the zero calibration point recorded in the as-left

data blank.

This is a Severity Level IV violation. (Supplement I) (298/8706-04)

Reason For The Violation

Attachment "B" of Instrument and Control (I&C) Procedure 7.5.4.2, " Pressure

j Test cauge Calibration," performed on December 16, 1986, failed . to have

'

the as-found and as-left data recorded on page 11 for the zero calibration

point. In addition, page 31 of the above named procedure and performance

data failed to have the as-left data recorded for the zero calibration

point. The reason for this violation is personnel error in completing

and reviewing the data sheet in accordance with procedures.

,I

Corrective Steps Which Have Been Taken And The Results Achieved

The two instruments which were calibrated per page 11 and 31 of Attachment

'

i

"B" of I&C Procedure 7.5.4.2 on December 16, 1986, have been re-calibrated

and this calibration properly documented.

Additional corrective steps taken have been the discussion of the event -

by the Operations Department Manager and I&C Supervisor with the I&C

Foremen. The foremen were counseled on the importance of completing .

a thorough review and evaluation of those I&C procedures requiring a

,

review subsequent to the completion of the testing accomplished in the -

l procedure. Further discussion of the event took place between I&C Foremen

1 and I&C Technicians. During these discussions, the technicians were ..

counseled on the importance of recording data per station procedural

requirements. Both of these actions should ensure data is recorded

properly by I&C Technicians per station procedural requirements and that

the required procedural review and evaluation takes place to verify

necessary data has been recorded.

Corrective Steps Which Will Be Taken To Avoid Further Violations

J

!

'

All I&C procedures requiring review subsequent to completion of the testing ,

accomplished in the procedure will have the signoff space stating " Reviewed '

By", changed to " Test Complete and Reviewed". This corrective step will

_ require a review to be performed and documented before the procedure

is to be considered fully completed.

.

Date When Full Compliance Will Be Achieved

Full compliance will be achieved by August 1, 1987.
