2.0 Maintenance Organization

,

The Maintenance and Construction (M&C) Director is responsible for the overall conduct of maintenance activities at the site. He reports directly to the Vice President and Director, Maintenance and Construction. Four managers and administrative staff report to M and C Director. The mechani-cal, electrical, and instrumentation and control engineering staff, which l

1s part of the plant engineering organization, also support the M and C Directo Several organizational changes have occurred recently that indicate an in-creased awareness and commitment towards assuring quality in the conduct

of maintenance activities. These changes include increased training for

, both plant and contractor personnel, increased direction in the work plan-ning for maintenance, and a new series of data books using historical maintenance information from vendors and the licensee. Also, the Station Information Management System (SIMS) program is planned to be used for

tracking, trending and control of maintenance activities. The SIMS pro-

! gram is in the advanced stages of development, and the first part of the

program is expected to be operational in the last quarter of 1986.

The planning group under the M&C Director provides the necessary focal point from which maintenance activities can be planned and coordinated among the mechanical, electrical, and I&C areas. The Maintenance and Construction Short and Long forms can be processed; and resultant work packages (including work request Nos., personnel requirements, tagging requests, radiation exposure permits, tool requirements and job sequence descriptions, and special instructions) are identified and documented by designated planner The review and approval of the Maintenance and Construction Short and Long forms by Plant Engineering, Quality Assurance, and Plant Materials person-nel is to ensure that the operability and maintainability of a designated system before and after maintenance is not impaire The inspector had no further questions in this are .0 Maintenance Activities 3.1 Administrative Controls The inspector reviewed and evaluated the licensee's program control-ling safety-related maintenance activities to assess if the admini-strative controls established were consistent with the plant Technical Specification (TS), Regulatory Guide 1.33, ANSI N18.7, and Appendix B to 10 CFR 50. Documents reviewed are listed in Appendix 1 to this .

repor .2 Program Implementation The inspectors held discussions with the M&C Director, and managers in his section as well as managers in Technical Functions, Quality assurance, and Materials to evaluate controls in place to identify, schedule, track, and document preventive and corrective maintenanc Both Short Order and Long Order forms are used for tracking mainten-ance activities; however, they will'become part of the Station Infor-mation Management System (SIMS) during the third quarter of 198 The SIMS, an automated maintenance management system, is being deve-loped by the licensee and will provide information in the following areas:

--

A component data base containing equipment nameplate data, design characteristics, and spare parts informatio On-line inquiry of Work Request / Work Order status by component, work center, or syste Storage of maintenance history by task, component, and syste a

--

NPRD (INPO) reporting directly from the Work Order Data Bas Identification of maintenance backlog, priorities and approval delay Scheduling of Preventive Maintenance (P.M.) tasks and Technical

Specification surveillances, and

--

On-line electronics approval and processing of a work document

.through its life cycle.

I The SIMS program and the procedures associated with the program are being prepared by the license, and are planned to be issued by the i

'

third quarter of 1986. However, full implementation of the SIMS pro-gram is not scheduled before the third quarter of 1988. The On-Line Electronic approval portion of the SIMS program has the potential for eliminating documentation that is required by 10'CFR 50, Appendix The licensee has identified a concern in this area and has described their plans in: QAES 6133-86-0066 February 28, 1986; station memoran-dum dated March 14, 1-986; and memorandum 2000-1363J, March 11, 198 The implementation of this program will be evaluated by the NRC

, during a future inspection (86-14-01).

l 3.3 Documentation Review and Equipment Inspected The inspector reviewed the records of selected maintenance activities performed on safety-related equipment to verify that:

--

I --

An approved, up-to-date procedure was use The procedure was adequately detailed to assure satisfactory performance.

,

--

Operational personnel were notified prior to and upon completion of the test.

l --

Properly specified parts and materials were identified for the activit Radiation protection controls were identified, and

--

Calibrated equipment was listed when require The inspectors reviewed the qualification records for the electrical'

and mechanical personnel performing maintenance on the listed com-ponents above. The records indicated that all required training had

been given to licensee personnel for the work area in which they were i

involved.

, No unacceptable conditions were observe .0 Measuring and Test Equipment (M&TE) Program

The Measuring and Test Equipment (M&TE) Program was reviewed to assess licensee compliance with the requirements of the FSAR, and the Quality ,

Assurance program requirement A random examination of the M&TE equipment used by the maintenance per- ,

sonnel disclosed that the equipment sampled was within calibration dates.

i The records indicating the location of calibration equipment were main-tained in an up-to-date status.

.

.

The calibration laboratory was an access-controlled area with controlled temperature and humidity. The inspector reviewed the equipment recall system, and the qualification records of the calibration technicians to determine their compliance to site procedures and FSAR criteria. The equipment history files and the qualification records of the personnel were in up-to-date statu .

No violations were identifie .0 Technical Support Interface i

i Maintenance and Construction (M&C) personnel interface with various func-

tional divisions utilizing the Work Management System, and employ the Plant Engineering Work Request or Technical Functions Work Request through their supervisory planning efforts to identify those actions necessary for M&C to carry out its function The licensee has revised the programs for modification repair, maintenance and surveillance by

Upgrading the licensee M&C training program for both in-house and contractor personne * Assignment of key personnel for direct field observations and verifi-cation of work activities. These people were in addition to the job superviso During the plant tour and discussions with craft personnel it was evident that key personnel were reviewing the craft supervisors work effort, and that new and up-dated training requirements were given to the maintenance personne No violations were identifie .0 Maintenance Testing and Rework Program Plant Engineering is preparing a program to address the subject of Post Maintenance Testing and Rework. The program which provides generic guid-ance to affected divisions for the conduct of Post Maintenance Testing is

'

planned to be releasad in the month of June,1986. The program provides technical support and guidance to the M&C Planners for use in preparing i the Maintenance and Construction Short and Long Form. The Job Supervisors and Area Supervisors involved in the plant maintenance programs would also use the documents for guidance in fulfilling their maintenance task '

)

4 To assure that rework was not due to poor maintenance practices, the Post

! Maintenance program has improved the technical direction for the perfor-

mance of maintenance, and has established a method of accountability for the rework program. The rework accountability system will also be used to

"

measure the effectiveness of the original maintenance direction, i

The inspector reviewed a portion of the Post Maintenance Testing Program documentation and noted that the planners instruction was more specific than what was issued in the past. Also the planning of work for a given item would be consistent from planner to planne The inspectors had no further questions at this tim .0 Quality Assurance and Quality Control Interface (QA/QC)

The Director of Quality Assurance has onsite personnel who independently monitor daily station activitie Discussions were held with the Station QA Audit Manager, Quality Assurance Operation and Engineering Managers, and other Quality Control personnel in order to determine the extent of QA and QC involvement with maintenance activitie An active audit program has been on going at this site in the main tenance area for the last year. The audit reports have been effective in identify-ing many of the problems in the maintenance rework area; one problem has been the timeliness of responses to QA/QC audit findings. This subject has been given management attention and program changes are under way to address this subjec .1 Audit Reports

8.0 Analysis of limitorque Motor Operated Valves (MOV's)

~

i

During November 1984, the licensee identified various MOV problems using the Motor Operated Valve Analysis and Test System (M0 VATS). During this outage the licensee has identified 57 Limitorque MOVs that are to be re-

paired per Work Authori ation (WA) #A15B-51719. The licensee plans to replace all jumper wires with qualified wires per WA #A158-51719.9. The WA has identified the following seven work areas that will be verified by maintenance:

--

Replace torque switches

--

Modify spring switch block plates

--

Overhaul operators

,

--

Install torque switch block plates j

--

Remove, clean and inspect spring pack

--

Perform bent stem inspection, and

--

Test operators using MOVATS procedure 700.2.010.

The inspectors reviewed the MOVATS work summary schedule wh.ich lists the j valve number and corrective measures planned for this cutage. These data are referenced in the repair WA's listed above. The inspector had no fur-j ther questions at this time. No inadequacies were identified.

) 9.0 Seismic Instrumentation i

The inspector reviewed the licensee's seijmic monitoring instrumentation j available as part of a routine review for all facilities.

.

Reference to the installation of triaxial accelerographs in the Reactor Building in the FSAR, Revision 0, December 1984, is an error. The licensee

stated that this site does not have any installed Seismic Instrumentation j as stated. The licensee stated that they planned to make a correction to

'

the FSAR in their next routine up-date. This will then' correct the FSAR to reflect the requirements of SEP amendment #68.

s j No violations were identified.
