Mr. L. Cuttschall, Site Resident Representative Manacenent Interview A management interview war held at the site on August 17, 1972, and on October 5, 1972 a telephone conversation was held between J. G. Miller

-

and J. P. O'Reilly during which the generic issues were discussed. The interview:

f ollowing subj ects were discussed during the site canage=ent A.

The inepector stated that the RT performed on the borated water storage tank was stated by PDM to have been accomplished in accor-

-

dance with RT-1 specification in the QA Manual without a technical procedure sheet cs required by the manual. The licensee stated this item would be reviewed.

(Section II, paragraph 4)

B.

The inspector stated that a material receiving inspection report

. dated May 18, 1972, by ELW indicates that no protection was used between carbon steel hold downs and stainless steel plate during shipment. No corrective action reports were found in PDM, B&W, or UE&C files.

This is contrary to the material specification MS-1.3.

The licensee stated this item would be reviewed.

(Sec-tion II, paragraph 5)

.

C.

Welder qualification records for welder mark "D" (Macmillan) were not available upon request of the inspector, but were later pre-sented before the end of the inspection. The licen'see offered no co= ment.

The barated water storage tank was found to contain weld splatter and slag on the exterior surfaces.

The cleaning procedure does not allow weld splatter or slag to be on any surface of the borated water storage tank, prior to the start of cleaning.

The licensee stated this item would be corrected.

(Section II, paragraph 9)

G.

The FSAR states that the barated water storage tank will be built in accordance with AWWA D-100 Code; however, the procurement spe-cification indicates actual construction to be done in accordance with ASME,Section VIII, partially.

The licensee stated that this had been a chaage in the contract to increase the requirements and that this ite: would be investigated and the FSAR changed as re-quired.

(Section II, paragraph 10)

H.

The inspector stated that corrective action on items identified as deficient during audit of site construction activities had not been corrected as required by the Met Ed QA plan, Appendix B, Revision 3.

The licensee stated that the corrective action report would be

_

reviewed and would be expedited.

(Section II, paragraph 11)

1.

The inspector stated that the Unit 2 Construction Deficiency Re-port No. 088, indicated that the stop work authority of the qual-ity control organization was not effective. The licensee stated that the authority had been given to the quality organization; how-ever, complete i=ple=entation was not always effective, but would be corrected.

The UE&C 'Jeld History Reports are confusing.

They define all NDT require =ent on one line and permit "Conam", acceptance signoff, on the same line. This is not a true acceptance of all NDT, since Cona: is not authorized by the UELC procedure to accept radiography.

The inspector stated that the record, should reflect a true accep-tance and should not depend on supporting documents to determine the cc=ponent quality.

This is not a violation, but the report

fors should be revised to present a cceplete and accurate quality his to ry.

The licensee's response to the above ites, was that they will be re-viewed for appropriate action.

_

Y.

The incpector stated there are no instructions, procedures, or draw-ings delineating the quality aspects of the installation of the in-dividual sensors or instruments used in the detection of system ab-normalities.

(Section III, paragraph 12)

The licensee concurred with this finding.

Z.

The inspector stated that there were no instructions, procedures, or drawings which describe the testing and/or calibration requirements for the sensors or instruments used in the detection of system abnor-malities.

~

cedure ECP-6, which requires that space heaters be energized or sup-plementary heat provided within two working days af ter placement in storage and that docu=entation be provided. The procedure also r2-quires that a red indicating la=p be installed to show the circuit is energized.

The inspector stated that there is no evidence that the field super-visor, quality control, is notified prior to the installation of engineered safe 5uards equipment except for safeguards cable instal-lation, nor was their evidence that QC had witnessed installation of other equip =ent, which is contrary to UE&C Procedures ECP-6 and ECP-10, which both require that the field superviser, quality con-trol, be notified prior to the installation of engineered saf eguards equipment.

(Section III, paragraph 8)

The licensee stated that he felt that this was being done; however, there was no documentation indicating that notification had been ac-co=plished prior to the installation, except for safeguards cable installation and several cases for electrical equipment installation.

-

He further stated that, in many cases, this was handled infor= ally.

II.

The inspector stated that deficiency reports required by QC-17 had not been prepared for each instance of violation of the separations criteria described in UE&C Procedure ECP-8.

(Section III, paragraph 9, and Section V, Paragraph 5)

The licensee concurred with this finding.

JJ.

The inspector stated that the separations criteria described in the FSAR, Paragraph 8.2.2.12(c) had not been met in the engineered safe-guards actuating cabinets located in the control roo=.

The inspec-tor also stated that there was a lack of barriers and that nu=crous rolls of cable, which had been terminated at both ends, was suspen-ded under the cabinets and that there was no docu=entation indicat-

-

ing that this practice was unacceptable.

(Section III, paragraph 10)

The licensee concurred with this finding.

KK.

The inspector stated that the reactor pressure sensing actuators,

C.ble Installation UE&C Procedure ECP-3, Addendu A, states, "The quality control in-spector will co=plete the attached check list as applicable while inspecting the installation of the equip =ent."

A detailed inspec-tion of the dates on the check list against the dates when the cable

,

was actually pulled revealed a several days lapse between the ti=e that the check list was filled out and the date that the cable was actually pulled. Discussions with the QC personnel revealed that the forms were not supplied to the inspector at the time that he was witnessing a pull. The electrical QC supervisor for UESC stated that he expected his inspector to be knowledgable as to what the in-spection~ points were.

It was also stated that there had been a con-siderable number of pulls =ade which were not witnessed at the tbne

'

of the actual pulling of the cable. The UE&C QC supervisor also

_

stated that the individual inspecters recorded the infor=ation in a notebook which they transcribed at some later date.

3.

Measurine and Test Ecuic=ent Calibration

_

UE&C Procedure QC- ', which was changed on July 6,1972, required prior to that date, that a quarterly field audit be perfor=ed to determine that measuring and test equipment throughout the site were properly controlled, calibrated, and adjusted. A review of the records indicated that only three such audits had been made -

the first on August 5,1970 and the last on November 18, 1971.

_

The UE&C site quality assurance supervisor concurred that the audits had not been made.

.

cy reports had not been prepared for each instance where the separa-

_

tions criteria described in UESC Procedure ECP-8, paragraph 4.4.4 had not been net.

In some instances, field prepared sketches were submitted to the A-E, however, this method of identifying a defi-ciency is not procedurally covered nor is there assurance that each instance of a violation is ulti=ately corrected, since there is no procedural review of this type of documentation nor will there be evidence that an evaluation has been made.

10.

Separation of Redundant Circuits The FSAR, paragraph 8.2.2.12C states in part, "In a very few cases, the separation is sount 12 inches and in these cases a barrier is installed between the trays."

The engin2ered safeguards actuating cabinets, located in the control

-

room, do not have the separation specified as the minimum for cable trays, nor barriers separating the channels.

There are numerous rolls of cable suspended under the cabinets,' which were ter=inated at both ends. The work on these cabinets was approaching comple-tion, however, there was no documentation indicating that these

-

practices, both lack of separation and coiled rolls of cable, were found unacceptable. Attachments A, B and C are photographs show-ing the congestion underneath the safeguards actuating cabinets.

with the applicable specification requirements.

The reactor pressure sensing actuators, identified as RK-18, were randemly selected for inspection.

The per=anent file for these devices indicated that they had not been received, although fur-ther investigation revealed that they were in f act received in De-cember 1971. There were no records indicating that these devices had been receipt inspected as required by UELC Procedure QC-2.

12.

Installation of Individual Sensors and/or Instruments Used In The Detection of Syste= Abnor:alities There are no instructions, procedures, or drawings which delineate

-

the quality aspects of the installation of the individual sensors and/or instru=ents used in the detection of system abnormalities.

13.

Instrument Calibration There are no instructions, procedures, or, drawings which describe

_

the testing and/or calibration required for the sensors or instru-

=ents used in the detection of system abnornalities.

14.

Protection of Vertical Trays Paragraph 8.2.2.11D of the FSAR states in part, ".

all vertical

..

trays have solid covers to six f eet above their floor penetrations."

A review of the general notes on the drawings and. of several vertical tray drawings fail to show the application of solid covers on the vertical trays. There are no instruction or procedures which iden-tify this requirenent.

15.

Cable Tray Loadinc

_

UE&C Procedure ECP-3 and Paragraph 8.2.2.1.13.4 of the FSAR specify

_

that cable tray loading, the former in terms of physical fill and the latter in terms of cross sectional area. There are no instruc-tions, procedures or drawings which require that the cable tray load-ing be verified in the field.

General The Three Mile Island 1 Plant is reported to be 85% co=plete.

The repairs to the defective containment ring girder for Unit No. 1 are now esticated for ce=pletion in February 1973.

Details of Subjects Discussed in Section I 2.

Weldine Defects Re=cval Verification During a review of the Gilbert Associates Specification No. 5550, in

~

paragraph 2.7.3, it states that def ect removal should be verified by either a liquid penetrant examination or by a reinspection in accor-dance with the same procedure which identified the defect.

During a comparisen of the requirements of UESC Procedure QC-8 " Pipe Welding Control", it was noted that this procedrue ccatains no requirement for defect re= oval verification. In pursuing this subj ect, the in-spector also found that the " weld history sheet", which is the con-trolling QC document for each weld in the plant piping, also has no provision for verification of removal of defects.

This failure of UE&C to reflect the Gilbert Associates Specification requirements on their veld history sheet and in their procedure for pipe welding control is a violation of Criterion IX, which states in part, " Mea-sures shall be established to assure that special processes, such as welding, are controlled and acco=plished in accordance with the applicable specification."

Inconclete Fabrication Records for B&W Reactor Coolant Pine Snools During a review of the fabrication records for a randomly selected reactor coolant piping pipe spool, No. A-33, it was found that the

_

only record on site was the MP-1 Data Report for Nuclear Piping, signed b'y the code inspector at Babcock and Wilcox.

It was fur-ther noted that when this section of pipe was received on site in January of 1970, the receiving records showed a deficiency "docu-mentation required" and that a deficiency report was written.

4.

Weldine Electrodes Used on the Pressurizer Surge Piqdng Snools at Babcock and Wilcox During a review of the documentation records from Babcock and Wil-cox covering the fabrication, non-destructive testing, etc., of the pressuriaer surge piping spools, it was noted that Hear No. 65063 and 65065 f or 1/8 inch li=e coated electrodes did not =cet the chemical analysis require =ents for either chromium or molybdenum.

It was fur-ther noted that li=e coated electrode Heat No. 50311 did not meet the requirements for either chrome, nickel or molyodenum and the mill

-

certificate had been marked " retest."

There was no retest record nor deficiency report to indicate this item had ever been identified or recognized by either the B&W or the site UE&C quality control

-

group.

Another mill certificate was observed covering Heats No. 7/53809,

-

53812, and 54583, which indicated the ferrite content was 1.5 to 2.5%.

This deficiency also was not identified nor had a deficien-cy report ever been written although B&W Specification No. CS-37-3, in paragraph 5.1.7, requires that stainless steel electrodes contain a 5% minimum of delta ferrite.

5.

Inadeauate Viewing for Radiograohic Film During a review of randomly selected radiographic film, representing welds in the reactor coolant and pressurizer surge line piping, it was found that the Conam inspection agency did not have on site, high-intensity film viewing equipment to meet the requirements of B31.7, paragraph B-1-110.6, which states that: "the equipment used to review films for radiographic interpretation shall provide a high intensity light source."

-

It was obvious that the medical-type viewing equipment available on site was completely incapable of revealing ' rejectable defects, particularly, in composite fil=s (double films).

It was further noted, during the review of the radiographic film representing the

-

pressurizer surge line weld No. RC-55AQ, that the veld area was characterized by alternating bands of light and dark areas, since the radiographer had failed to require the weld surface to be ground smooth prior to conducting his radiographic inspection. This is also a violation of Code B31.7 which in paragraph 1-727.4.2(d) states the finished surf ace of the weld shall be ground to be suitable for the

-

proper interpretation of non-destructive examinations.

It was stated,that this flange is cast on the ends of the valve and machine to a close R&M finish in order to provide a sealing surface during hydrostatic testing of the valves according to Both the GPU and the UE&C representatives agreed Specification B16.5.

the machining had created a "no radius" notch extending for the full circumference around the veld end.

Details of Ite=s Discussed in Section I 4.

The Lack of Installation Procedures or Instructions for Saf ety Related Valves Procedures for the installation of the decay heat removal outlet

-

valves and core flooding check valves were not available to direct the activity relative to the quality for these cc=ponents, this is

~

contrary to the requirements of Appendix B,10 CFR 50, Criterion V, (

" Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings", which states in part,

"Ac-tivities aff ecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instruc-tions, procedures, or drawings, of a type appropriate to the circu=-

stances shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures, or drawings.

Instructions, procedures or drawings shall include appropriate quantitative or qualitative acceptance criteria for deter =ining that i=portant activities have been satisfactorily accceplished."

Deficiency Reoorts Not Being Issued f or Senconf or=inc Conditiens A Cona= inspection report dated May 23, 1972, states in part: --

" Magnetic particle rej ectable indications on the Unit 1 reactor head flange."

A deficiency report (DR) for this condition has not been issued.

This is contrary to the ULLC procedure QC-17, " Control of Nonconform-ing Conditions", Paragraph IV-3, that states, in part, --- "QC shall

-

caintain a = aster log of inspection reports to indicate their status",

and Paragraph C states in part, --- "Ite=s that are re-inspected and are found to be unacceptable, --- shall be tagged with a rej ect tag."

The nonconforcing condition and the ref erenced inspection report nu=-

ber shall be identified on a deficiency report processed as specified in Section IV.A.

The rejected status and a ref erenced DR number shall be docu=ented on the applicable inspection report for cross reference.

6.

Reactor Coolant Pu=o Supports The inspector was infor=ed, that the design does not require the re-actor coolant pumps to be supported by any =eans other than the suction pipe from the steam generator, and discharge pipe to the reactor pres-sure vessel, plus restraint attached to the pu=p e..d =otor.

This ap-pears to be a tremendous load (approxi=ately 210,000 pounds) to be

-

carried by the stea= generator and reactor pressure vessel nozzles and connecting pipes.

This condition has been referred to RO headquarters (Mr. W. Rein =uth)

for a review and disposition.
