Independent Inspection Effort a.

Remote Visual Inspection of RPV Thermal Shield Bolts.

At the time of this inspection B&W was conducting a remote visual inspection of the RPV thermal shield bolts in order to determine existing conditions prior to removing and replacing them as was done in Unit 1 earlier. The inspector observed the video tape recording and confirmed an earlier report by the licensee which indicated that two

appeared to' be only partially fastened.

Af ter completion of the inspection effort the inspector learned through a telephone conversa-

cracked and_three(3) broken. More ~ details on the cause of failure will be reported in subsequent inspection. reports as this information becomes available.

t

Within the areas inspected, no violations or deviations were identi-fled.

b.

Seal Replacement 2A1 RC Pump.

Quality records an'd maintenance procedures used to document removal and installation of 2A1 RC pump seal were reviewed. The replacement was performed on work request No. 952568 under NSM #0N1542 Revision 2.

Procedures specific to this task also used as operational checkoff i

lists and QA hold points included the following:

Replacement Quality records for the replacement seal QA tag #31859 and 0-ring QA tab #18662 were reviewed for compliance with applicable B&W specifi-cation CS-3-36-1 requirements, completeness and accuracy.

The licensee's nuclear safety evaluation checklists disclosed no new unreviewed safety questions as covered by the Stations FSAR or the Technical Specification.

Within the areas inspected no violations or deviations were identified.

6.

Inservice Inspection - Program Review (Unit 2)

The inspector reviewed the licensee's Inservice Inspection (ISI) program (Plan) for the current outage in the areas of: program approval; QA program requirements including organizational structure; audit requirements; general QA requirements (examination reports, control of_ deviations from established program; quality documentation and identification of components); work and

_

quality inspection procedures; control of processes; corrective action; document control; control of examinations and examination equipment; quality records; inspection scope; inspection intervals; personnel qualifications;-

and, NDE records including provisions for storage. The applicable code for

,

the ISI is the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,Section XI,1974 Edition, with Addenda through the Summer of 1975.

The Plan, which is applicable to the three Oconee units, had been approved by the QA Manager of Operations on November 10, 1981.

In addition to the aforementioned Code, Regulatory Guides 1.14, 1.83, and 1.150 have been invoked with certain provisions delineated in the applicable procedures and

Inservice Inspection, Procedure Review (Unit 2)

B&W's procedure governing the ISI of components listed in ASME Code Section XI, under IWE-2000 IWC-2000 were approved by B&W's Level III, NDE examiner and the licensee's QA representative for use during this interval and the current ten (10) year, fifth (5th) unit outage.

Areas subject to examination during this outage, as specified in Tables IWB-2500 /S!C 2500, were 21ected for review to ascertain whether the speci-fied category, method of examination and coverage were delineated and consistent with applicable code requirements. These areas were as follows:

-

Eddy Current (EC) Examination of Once Through Steam Generator (OTSG) Tubes (Unit 1)

ISI activities during this refueling outage (5th) included the eddy current (EC) examination of tubes in both "A" and "B" OTSGs. Data acquisition and analysis was being performed by B&W personnel.

B&W approved procedure, ISI-416, devision 3 which referenced R.G. 1.83 R/1 was the governing docu-ment.

The inspector observed the examination of tubes 117 - 108, 103 -98, 109 - 103, 81 - 72,110 - 103,114 - 107,106 - 97,109 - 101, and 113 - 105 and the 4-hour calibration check performed at 9: 45 a.m. on January 21, 1982 on OTSG "A" Subsequent discussions with the licensee disclosed that two l

.

.

tubes in OTSG "A" and 7 in OTSG "B" required plugging - these are listed below:

After completion of this inspection effort the inspector learned through a telephone discussion with the licensee's representative that the inspection involved 2926 tubes in OTSG "A" and 3600 in OTSG "B".

l In addition to the aforementioned work observation, the inspector reviewed quality records of EC calibration standards on site, equipment certifica-tions and personnel qualifications. Technicians performing the examination appeared to be thoroughly familiar with procedural requirements and ade-quately qualified to perform their assigned tasks.

Within the areas inspected, no violations or deviations were identified.
