Finding

Title

Failure to Perform Penetrant Tests in Accordance with Procedural Requirements

Description

The NRC staff identified an AV that is being processed through the traditional enforcement process because it appears to involve willfulness and is associated with an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI). The AV involves Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 72.158, Control of Special Processes, which required, in part, that the licensee establish measures to ensure that special processes, including nondestructive testing, are controlled and accomplished by qualified personnel using qualified procedures in accordance with applicable codes, standards, specifications, criteria, and other special requirements. The licensee established TriVis Procedure 12751 QP-9.202, Color Contrast Liquid Penetrant Examination Using the Solvent-Removable Method, Revision 1, as the qualified procedure for use in Dry Shielded Canister (DSC) NDE PT. However, from approximately September 5 to October 17, 2013, the NRC determined that licensee contractors apparently willfully failed to follow the TriVis procedure for developer dwell times, while performing PT on 66 of 66 DSC closure welds examined. The NRC also determined that the licensee contractors apparently failed to follow other parts of the TriVis procedure.
