were performed and one on which ultrasonic testing (UT)

was performe For each witnessed examination, the inspector verified that the following requirements were met:

(1) Approved procedures were available, were being followed, and specified NDE equipment was being use (2) Examination personnel were knowledgeable of examination method and operation of test equipmen (3)

-

The ISI program, including examinations and tests, is in conformance with relevant ASME Code Section XI editions and addenda, and Code cases proposed for use as part of the pla.The services of an Authorized Nuclear Inservice Inspector (ANII)

have been procured and the ISI plan has been reviewed by the ANII in accordance with Article IWA-2120 of the ASME Cod. Site administrative procedures are in place to define the authority and responsibilities of the persons or organizations involved with the final evaluation and acceptance of ISI results for the license Procedures are established for the corrective action of conditions adverse to quality as detected during examination, including provisions to preclude repetition of such adverse condition Audits or surveillances of ISI activities are conducted by qualified QA personnel to verify compliance with the ISI progra Procedures are established to effectively oversee contractor activities concerned with IS c. Review and Evaluation of Inservice Inspection Data The inspector reviewed site NDE inspection records for the current outage to:

(1) Ascertain whether the reported data covers the scope of examination required during the current inspection period of the inspection interva (2) Ascertain whether the ISI data files are complete and the data are within the previously established acceptance criteri (3) Ascertain whether the licensee's disposition of adverse findings and subsequent re-examiantion is consistent with regulatory requirement (4)

Ascertain whether the licensee is utilizing the services of a third party inspection agency, as require (5) Ascertain whether the selected records contain or provide reference to the following documents:

(a) Examination results and data sheets (b) Examination equipment dat (c) Calibration data sheets (d) Examination evaluation data (e) Records on extent of examination (f) Records on deviation from program and procedures including justification for deviation, if applicable (g) Records on disposition of findings (h) Identification of NDE material such as penetrant, penetrant cleaner, couplant, et (6) Ascertain whether the method, extent, and technique of examination comply with the licensee's ISI program and applicable NDE procedur (7) Ascertain whether the examination data are within the acceptance criteria as outlined in the applicable NDE procedur (8) Ascertain whether the recording, evaluating, and dispositioning of findings are in compliance with the applicable NDE procedur (9) Ascertain whether inservice NDE results are compared with the recorded results of prior Section XI examination (10)

Ascertain whether the method used for NDE was sufficient to determine the full extent of indication or acceptanc In addition, the inspector ensured that the following requirements for the test records reviewed were met:

-

The examination unit calibration data sheets show no major deviations between initial and final calibration Collected examination data and any recordable indications are properly recorded to permit accurate evaluation and documentatio Evaluation of examination data is performed by a Level II or Level III examine Evaluation of examination complies with the procedur Evaluation of indicators complies with the criteria of the NDE procedur d. Review of Inservice Inspection Procedures (73052)
