Gentlemen:

The purpose of this letter is to provide a common identification of

Construction Appraisal Team (CAT) followup items in order to facilitate an

orderly review by the NRC staff. The attached listing includes items found in

the Construction Appraisal Team inspection (NRC Inspection Report 50-498/85-21;

50-499/85-19), the Region IV initial followup thereto (NRC Inspection

Report 50-498/86-12;50-199/86-12), and the Notice of Violation forwarded to you

on August 20,1986, (Enforcement Action 10) which will require further followup

by the NRC staff in order to ascertain whether appropriate corrective actions

have been taken.

We understand that during the course of the CAT inspection, your personnel

,

I

generated various records of the observations of the CAT personnel for

f

followup. These have been collectively labelled as the CAT Action List (CAL)

I

and amount to in excess of 500 specific observations. To the extent that it

can be done, these items should be grouped to coincide with the items listed in

'

~

the attached document.

It is not necessarily our intent to followup on each of

the 500 or more items but rather to do so selectively and sufficiently to

assure ourselves that your actions are appropriate to the circumstances.

Sincerely,

Original Signed D2

ATTACHMENT

CAT FOLLOWUP ITEMS

The following is an explanation of the various columns used below-

I

• Item Number:

This is an artificial number assigned to each major

observation or finding-that appears in either of the above

inspection reports and will be used in the future

inspection reports to document our review and closure (if

warranted). Note that these numbers have been assigned to

broad observations which may embed several specific

deficiencies leading to the overall observation or finding.

• Type:

Those observations by CAT that did not rer. ult in Potential

Enforcement Action items have been labeled FI-(for follcwup

item) follwed by one or more letters indicating the

discipline involved such.as E for electrical. Findings

which did relate to Potential Enforcement Actions have been

labeled with the appropriate PEA number.

In those

instances where the initial followup (NRC Inspection

Report 50-498/86-12;50-499/86-12) confirmed a CAT; PEA and

it subsequently-appeared in the Notice of Violation issued

on August 20, 1986, a V has been place'd"in the column.

,

indicating that the item resulted in a violation. "

• Closure Report:

This column denotes that the item is fully closed (the C

appearing after 86-12) or that the item was . examined during

i

the course of Inspection 86-12 and.will.be tracked in.the

'

future as an item pertaining to 86-12. Where nothing

appears in the column, the item will be tracked entirely

via the CAT report.

Subject:

A short summary title of the overall observation plus a:

cross reference note to allow easier tracing from the CAT

report to the followup report.

• Report Ident:

The numbers appearing in this column reflects, in the

case of the CAT report, the paragraph number appearing in

the detail sections of the report that appears to most

satisfactorily capture the CAT inspectors observations.

In

those instances where 86-12 is indicated in the first

column, the last column indicates the paragraph number

contained in the Notice of Violation followed by another

numer indicating where the finding was discussed in NRC

Inspection Report 50-498/86-12;50-499/86-12.
