Inspector's Comment

[

Section 2.3 presents a list of items that will becoma a part cf the test record.

Not listed in this list is the chronologica] log.

Will a log be maintained during the conduct of a test and where will this record be filed?-

Licensee's Response Considerations will be given to maintaining a log while a O

test is conducted.

If a log is kept, it will become a part of the test record.

(2)

Inspector's Comment The list of items in Section 2.3 does not include calibra-tion records of test equipment such as p,ressure gages and

-

relief valves. Where will these records be maintained?

Licensee's Response The serial number of all test equipment used in performing a test will be recorded in Section 6 of the test procedure.

All test equipment is calibrated on a specified frequency and the records of calibration are maintained in a central file j

(3)

Inspector's Comment In two of the test procedures listed, it is stated that a preliminary flush will precede the hydro test, in another

,

test, a final flush is a prerequisite and the fourth test does not require any flushing before the hydro test.

A precautionary statement is included in all of the test procedures concerning cleanliness of the piping system m

when making or breaking connections.

Also in piping

.

systems, other than those using seawater, water chemistry limits are presented.

.

It would appear that if the piping system final flush has not been completed prior to the hydro, the precaution

'

concerning cleanliness and the water chemistry limits woul'd not apply.

But if the final flush is a prerequisite test then these two items are meaningful.

I2 it the intention of FPC to conduct hydro tests before

or after the final system flush?

i

_

Licensee's Response This item will be reviewed and test procedures will be, revised to reflect the chosen plan.

(4)

Inspector's Comment A statement is given in Section 7 admonishing the test

)

operator against over torquing valves and mechanical s_-

fasteners. What are the allowable torque limits?

Licensee's Response This statement will be reviewed and if limits are required

.

they will be added to the procedure.

(5)

Inspector's Comment A statement in Section 7 requires adjacent, connected, untested piping to be vented, but no list of vent valves is given.

,

Licensee's Response Appropriate vent valves will be specified in the procedure.

(6)

Inspector's Comment In Section 7 the Test Supervisor is requested to ensure

,

l that the hydro pump relief valve will lift at 106% of the i

l test pressure and that the capacity of the relief valve

'

exceeds or equals the hydro to done. Will a test be run

' 'g for each hydro or will the equipment be bench-tested?

The original intention was to conduct a test on this equipment for each hydro test, but consideration is being

-

given to bench-testing the relief valve on a periodic schedule like other special test equipment is handled.

,

This item will be cleared-up in the approved test procedures.

,

'

l (7)

Inspector's Comment

-

Several action items appear in Section 7, " Limitations

.

"

and Precautions," that do not have a space for initialing and dating.

Examples are as follows:

(a) Close instrumentation valves before filling the system.

(b)

ensure system is vented during fill.

(c)

open differential transmitter equalizing valves.

(

Shouldn't these item be covered in Section 9.0, " Test Method and Procedure?"

Licensee's Response

.

All action items will be signed-off and dated.

Some

-

items will be found in Sections 7 and 8 as well as 9.

b.

The following comments apply to TP 367 2:

j (1)

Inspector's Comment j

Step 8.2.9 requires bolting of expansion joints as a preparatory step for the hydro test.

There is no step in the proceduro that requires these bolts to be removed and to return the system to normal.

Licensee's Response A step will be added to part 9.4, " Cleanup and Restoration,"

'

to remove the bolts.

(2)

Inspector's Comment Step 9.2.1.12 states that there be zero leakage at the i

test pressure.

Shouldn't this state that there be no leakage through piping or weldments?

Scope of Inspection j

The inspection was limited to a detailed review of the following

,

j items, viz.; (1) current and projected plant construction and its impact on the terrestrial and aquatic environment of the site and its environs; (2) current status of required baseline preoperational nonrad environmental surveillance programs and studies; (3) the

, status of draft environmental technical specifications and the development of detailed written procedures required to assure their implementation.

3.

Construc' tion Phase Environmental Program At time of inspection, construction of the facility was considered to be 86% complete. Inspection revealed that all major construction activity which could generate an adverse impact on either the terrestrial or aquatic environments of the site and its environs was completed. A licensee representative stated that excavation and removal of the earth plugs from the plant cooling water intake and discharge canals was initiated on February 2, 1974, and completed on April 9, 1974. During this operation, a protective apron was used to confine excessive turbidity and siltation to the construction area. A water quality monitoring program was also conducted to assess the impact on the canals beyond the limited construction areas involved.

Inspection of resultant analytical data and records confirmed that the above construction activity generated no apparent adverse effects on the canals. The only major construction activity v
