Dennis M. Crutchfield, Director Division of Reactor Projects - III, IV, Y and Special Projects
SUBJECT:
NRC BULLETIN N0. 87-02, SUPPLEMENT 1:
FASTENER TESTING TO DETERMINE CONFORMANCE WITH APPLICABLE MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONS (MPANo.B.102)
The NRC issued Bulletin 87 02, Supplement 1 on April 22, 1988 to all holders of operating licenses or construction permits. This supplemental bulletin requires holders to provide the NRC with additional information regarding the identity of all vendors from which safety-related and non-safety.related fasteners have been procured in the post 10 years.

One goal of these efforts is to generate a cross-reference list of end-users with suspected suppliers of non-conforming fasteners.
William Hutchinson (x20371) is the principal 01 contact.
A copy of Bulletin 87 02, Supplement 1 is attached. The lead project manager is Thierry Ross (x23016). Technical review contacts are Jim Conway (x20978) and Ed Baker (x23221).
Plant specific TAC numbers were not taken out for this supplemental bulletin.
Project Manager (PM) involvement will be minimal; primarily limited to checking that their licensee responds appropriately. O! and applicable NRR staff should be on automatic distribution for all licensee responses.
Imposition completion dates for SIMS reports will be provided to all PMs at some later date by the lead PM.

I Descriotion of Circumstances:
j Item 5 of MRC Compliance Bulletin 87-02 requested that all holders of operating licenses or construction permits for nuclear power reactors submit information.
regarding the identity of the suppliers and manufacturers of the safety-related and non-safety-related fasteners selected for testing. After further consider-l ation, the NRC has determined that it needs informat' on renarding the identity of all vendors from which safety-related and non-safety-re' ated fasteners have been obtained within the past 10 years, a reasonable period which will not put undue burden on addressees. This information will assist the NRC in detersin-ing whether nuclear facility fasteners in use have been supplied in accordance j
with their intended use. In addition. this information is needed so that the
=
NRC can properly coordinate infonnation with other government agencies con-l l
corned with problems identified in the quality of fasteners.
Action Required:
Within 90 days from the receipt of this supplemental bulletin, addressees shall provide the following information concerning the procurement of fasteners within the past 10 years:
1.
A list of the suppliers and manufacturers from which safety-related fasteners have been p(urchased, including addresses, and the type of fasteners purchased i.e., the material specifications). For those fastener purchases made from fastener suppliers and/or original equipment manufacturers, any available information concerning the manufacturer or i
sub-tier supplier of the fastener also should be provided.
