Independent Inspection Effort Housekeeping (54834B),
Material Identification and Control (42902B)
and Material Control (42940B)
The inspector conducted a general inspection of auxiliary building turbine decks and the protected area to observe activities such as housekeeping, material identification and control, material control, and storage.
Within the areas examined, no violations or deviations were identified.
The inspectors reviewed procedures, observed work activities, conducted interviews with licensee/contractor personnel, and reviewed selected records to determine:
whether the licensee's welding specification and procedures meet applicable ASME Code, regulatory, and contract requirements; whether welding activities are performed in accordance with the ASME Code and SA commitments; whether records are prepared, evaluated and maintained in accordance with the ASME Code, applicable commitments and/or requirements; and that welding specifications, procedures, production equipment and established licensee quality control systems are adequate for the production of sound welds.
Specific areas examined are discussed below.
The welding program for backfit/construction, is implemented by the Florida Power and Light (FP&L) Welding Control Manual, by Bechtel Power Company (BPC)
welding personnel, and Stone and Webster (S&W) Quality Control (QC) personnel working under the umbrella of the FP&L QA program.
The applicable codes are indicated below:
American Society of Mechanical Engineers Boiler and Pressure Vessel (ASME B&PV) Code,Section III.
Division 1, Subsection NB, NC, and ND 1980 Edition with Addenda through Winter 1980 (80W80).
Division 1, Subsection NE 80W8 ASME BKPV Code,Section IX Edition and Addenda in effect at the time of qualification.
ASME BEPV Code Section XI 80W81 American Welding Society (AWS) Dl. 1 - 1983 except Section 9, Design of New Bridges, does not apply a.
Base Material and Filler Metal Compatibility for Welding ( 1)
The inspectors reviewed the Welding Procedure Specifications (WPSs) indicated below to verify that the base metal and welding filler material combinations are compatible and suitable for their intended application.
(2)
The inspectors reviewed procedures, conducted interviews with licensee/contractor personnel, made physical examinations of weld material issue stations and storage facilities, and examined representative records to verify that ASME Code required tests are performed on each lot of covered, flux cored or bare electrodes, rod or wire for each heat of consumable inserts and for each combination or bare electrodes and dry blend of flux mix to be used for welding.
Filler metal records reviewed are listed in Table III.
b.
Welding Procedures The inspectors reviewed the WPSs listed in Tables I and IV and their associated Procedure Qualification Records (PQRs) to verify that the contractor/licensee has established adequate procedures or instructions for preparation, qualification approval/certification, distribution and revision of WPS and that the WPSs were in conformance with those procedures.
c
~
Welding Material Control The inspectors reviewed procedures to verify that the contractor/licensee has established procedures and instructions for purchasing, recei'ving, storing, disbursing, and handling of welding materials; including welding electrodes, filler material, consumable inserts, fluxes, and gases.
Selected records were reviewed to verify that welding material purchasing and receiving records are in accordance with approved procedures or instructions; welding material storage procedures, contain requirement for environmental (moisture)
control, specify appropriate holding and baking temperatures and out-of-oven exposure time for each class of materials, and that actual pra'ctice follows these requirements; there are effective procedures for limiting electrode moisture pickup and maintaining identification after the welding materials are issued to the welder and that these procedures are strictly enforced.
Filler metal records reviewed are listed in Table II Welder Performance Qualification The inspectors reviewed the licensees procedures for qualification of welders and welding operators.
The procedures were reviewed to see that they include adequate provisions to preclude falsification of welders and welding operators qualifications; the contractor/licensee has a
workable system for maintaining a continuous record of the qualification status of all welders and welding operators and that this system is effectively utilized and accurate; and that welders and welding operators performing production welding have been and are currently qualified to weld under the respective procedures.
Welder performance records examined are listed in Table V.
Production Welding The inspectors examined inprocess welding activities associated with support 4-FRH-2 and FSK-M-273C RO CWO-450 to verify:
that work was conducted in accordance with appropriate welding procedures, detailed drawings and instructions.
Preheat and Post Weld Heat Treatment The inspectors reviewed procedures, interviewed personnel, observed inprocess welding activities, and reviewed selected records to verify the following:
approved procedures are available for weld joint preheating when required by a
WPS; preheat control procedures are being followed in production welding; the preheat used in production welding is within the limits specified by the WPS; approved procedures are available for the conduct of postweld treatment and that the fabricator has a system capable of meeting the heating and cooling rates, metal temperature, temperature uniformity and control limits specified in Section III of the ASME Code.
Examination of Welds The inspectors examined completed welds associated with support 4-FRH-2 and FSK-M-2736 RO CWO-450 to verify that the following characteristics conform to the applicable ASME Code and welding procedure requirements:
weld surface finish and appearance; transitions between components of different thickness; weld reinforcement; shape and size of fillet welds; arc strikes and weld spatter; and absence of surface defects including cracks, laps lack of penetration, lack of penetration, lack of fusion, porosity, slag, oxide film and undercut exceeding prescribed limit h.
Observations The inspectors made the following observations relative to the examinations above:
(2)
The Welding Control Manual has examples where the user is referenced to "the Applicable Code" for specific -requirements.
This practice causes the user to research and interpret "the Applicable Code."
This is an area of potential error.
The Welding Control Manual specifies requirements for welding activities applicable to both the ASME B&PV Code and the AWS Code.
There is an example where the less restrictive of the two codes requirements was chosen for inclusion in the Welding Control Manual.
This area is the evaluation of bend test assemblies.
The ASME bend test acceptance criteria specified in the manual, is less restrictive than the AWS bend test acceptance criteria.
The inspector has determined that no AWS bend tests were evaluated to the ASME criteria.
The licensee indicated that they would make the necessary corrections to the welding control manual to assure that this area is conservatively addressed.
(3)
(4)
M-3.50, Revision B,
contains a
matrix of inspection/
nondestructive examination requirements versus piping category/weld joint configuration.
The matrix specifies that the weld edge preparations be liquid penetrant or magnetic particle examined for ASME Class 1 systems, only if the joint to be welded is a full penetration butt weld, 2-inch and over wall thickness.
This is not consistent with ASME BKPV Code,Section II, Subsection NB, paragraph NB-5130, which requires weld edge preparation be liquid penetrant or magnetic particle examined for all Class 1 weld joints, 2-inch wall thickness and over.
The inspector determined to date, that the licensee had not violated the code requirements in this area.
The licensee indicated that they would review the M 3.50 matrix and make the necessary corrections to bring the matrix into compliance with the code.
This matter will be identified as unresolved pending NRC review of the licensee's corrections and will be identified as Unresolved Item 50-250, 251/88-04-01:
"Specification of Inspection Requirements."
Filler material type ER-70S2, 3/32"x 36",
heat number 412E2751 was procured under purchase order (PO No.) OA-35451-43921-27936.
That PO implements specification MN-2.16, Rev.
0, which requires, among other requirements, an analysis for copper in accordance with ASME B8PV Code,Section III, paragraph NB-4623.
The licensee was unable to provide.objective quality evidence (OgE) that the copper analysis was performed and acceptable to
the requirements of NB-4623.
The licensee indicated that they would investigate this matter pending NRC review of the licensee completed investigating will,be identified as Unresolved Item 50-250, 251/88-04-02:
