Testing of Radioactive Waste Sample Lines (75-19/4)

This item was originally disc'ssed in IE Report No. 50-302/75-19, u

'

Details III, paragraph 2 and dealt with the need to test waste sample lines to verify representative sampling and assess the amount of plate out in sample piping, as required by Regulatory Guide 1.68.

The inspector discussed this item with licensee representatives regarding status, schedule and test methods. A

-

,

licensee management representative informed the inspector that a test procedure had been drafted but was not yet approved. A licensee representative' stated that the actual testing would be performed by a contractor in accordance with the test procedure but had not yet been accomplished. This item remains open.

3.

Evaluation of Sampling Media Collection Efficiencies (75-19/6)

This item was originally discussed in IE Report 50-302/75-19, Details III, paragraph 4 and dealt with the need to establish the collection efficiencies for sample collection media, especially charcoal cartridges. In IE Report No. 50-302/76-20, Details II, 4.b it was noted that an engineering change notice had been issued to modify the air samplers to increase the residence time to an acceptable value. A licensee representative informed the inspector that the modification would be accomplished on the four samplers at environmental release points but the process monitors will not be modified at this time. Once the monicors are modified, the adsorber efficiency will be selected based on the flow rate and media; the efficiency will then be factored into the appropriate chemistry procedures. This item remains open pending the final selection of the adsorber efficiency.

4.

Conduct of Preoperational Radiochemistry Testing (76-20/1)

a.

This item was originally discussed in IE Report 50-302/76-20, Details II, paragraph 2 and dealt with incomplete records for test procedure 7 2 500 3, Initial Radiochemistry Test, relating to the sign-offs for prerequisites and sample collectisn for test phases which have been completed.

In some cases, samples had been collected but the procedure was not signed, but in others, the samples were not collected and no deviations were recorded in the procedure.

b.

The inspector reviewed the official record copy of the procedure and verified that procedure had been signed off for samples previously collected and deviations noted for samples which had not be collected. A licensee representative advised the inspector that a review had been made of the sampling and counting records for the,r<ent fuel pool and it was determined that the samples had been collected and some analyses performed, as required. These were signed off in the procedure. When samples were not collected due to equipment or system problems, a deviation was entered and signed.

i c.

A licensee management representative informed the inspector

'

'

that the test procedure will be periodically reviewed by a Chem Rad supervisor during the power ascension test program to verify that the required samples are being collected and the test procedure is being completed as required. The inspector

,

informed licensee mangement that he had no further questions and that this item was closed.

5.

Control of High Radiation-Areas a.

10 CFR 20, Section 20.203.(c)(2) specifies the requirements for-the control of the entrance or access points to a high radiation area. Section 20.203. Cc)(3) requires that such

controls "shall be established in such a way that no indivi-

dual will be prevented from leaving a high radiation area."

l b.

The inspector observed the barriers being installed at the

!

entrances to potential high radiation areas and noted that some areas (such as the hold-up tank room) were provided with gates secured with padlocks on the outside.

Such locks, if in place, would prevent on individual in the area from leaving

.

the area. This situation was discussed with licensee manage-

'

ment, who stated that this condition would be reviewed and action taken to comply with 10 CFR 20.

  • 6.

Radiation and Respiratory Protection Training a.

FSAR Section 12.2.2.4 states, in part, "All personnel assigned to the nuclear plant will receive specialized training in radiation saferf..." As discussed in IE Report No. 50-302/76-17, Deca 11s I, paragraph 6, during the inspector's review of training records, the test indicating satisfactory completion for one individual could not be located. A licensee

representative informed the inspector that during a review of

'

the training records, several instances were found where the test could not be located although other records indicated satisfactory completion of the training; in these cases the j

individuals attended the training again and took the test.

The licensee representative also discussed changes which were being made in the storage of training records. The inspector had no further questions.

i b.

Plant Radiological Control Procedure RP-102, Respiratory Equipment Manual, Section 4.0 specifies the training require-ments for plant personnel who are assigned to the respiratory protection program. The inspector reviewed the training and equipment fitting records for the training done so far and discussed the training program with licensee representatives.

,

The inspector provided comments relative to the records to licensee management who acknowledged them. The inspector had

no further questions.

Charcoal Cannister Test Results a.

This item was originally discussed in IE Report No. 50-302/76-

'

17, Details I, paragraph 3.c and dealt with possible degradation in the efficiency of charcoal in the ventilation systems adsorbers. During performance testing of the adsorbers, the testing was delayed due to high background readings which may have been the result of organic cleaning compounds.

Charcoal test cannisters were removed from the filter housing in three systems and sent off-site for laboratory analysis to determine any degradation in the charcoal efficiency.

b.

A licensee representative showed the inspector copies of the laboratory results performed on the test cannister charcoal specimens. The laboratory test results showed each cannister had a removal efficiency for methyl iodide greater than 99.7%

under the test conditions of Regulatory Guide 1.52, Rev. 1.

The licensee ecpresentative also informed the inspector that the in-place testing of the adsorbers had been satisfactorily completed af ter purging to lower the background. After review-(g ing the laboratory test reports the inspector had no further questions on this matter.

8.

Confirmatory Measurements a.

Scope The licensee is required to measure the quantities. and concen-trations of radioactive material in effluents from his facility to assure that they are within the limits specified in his license and the NRC Regulations. The inspection consisted of testing the licensee's measurements of radioactivity in prepared test standards by comparing his measurements with those of the NRC's reference laboratory. The result from the licensee is compared to its corresponding NRC value to determine if the result fell within established ranges for agreement or possible agreement. These ranges vary with resolution, which is defined i

as the ratio of the NRC result to the NRC statistical uncer-

'

tainty. As resolution increases, the ratio of the licensee result to the NRC result must more closely approach unity.

,

The measurements made by the NRC's laboratory are referenced to the National Bureau of Standard-radioactivity measurements system by' laboratory intercomparisuus.

Cross checking of times and dates of data and calibration sheets did not reveal any areas of concern. Personnel certifications were contained in Volume 9, Section 2 and all appeared to be in conform-ance with SNT-TC-1A and B&W procedures. B&W conducted a reexamina-tion of indications that exceeded 100 percent DAC.

The examination data for the pipe-to-elbow safe end NK49 to MK53 shown on drawing 141586E-5 was audited. The PT data is recorded en Figure 4.1.77 which cross referenced materials and personnel.

Certifications attesting to halogens and sulfur content less than 1% for developer 4LO21, Penetrant 4K029 and cleaner SD091 were in Volume 9 Section 3 of the report. Personnel performing the test vers certified to level II per SNT-TC-1A as evidenced by records in Volume 9 Section 2.

Ultrasonicexaminationdatawasrecorgedon Figure 4.1.j8andreferencedgalibrationsheets 1200131 (0 ),

1800124 (45 ) and 1800130 (60 ) which were in Volume 10.

Calibra-tion dates, dates of examination, recalibration times, personnel certifications, couplant certifications, and equipment calibration records were available in Volume 9.

A typographical error in-

!

volving an apparent transposition of digits occurred in Volume 9, (

Section 3 where the batch number for Item 3.2 in the index was

,

specified as 835 and the actual certification shows it to be 853.

This did not affect the ability to trace the certifiestion and/or verify materials on the data sheets.

The disposition of Code rejectable indications was discussed in Volume 1 and Volume 9 of the report. These were reviewed to assure compliance with code and to verify disposition of indications referenced in previous IE reports. The disposition of these appear-ed to be in conformance with code requirements.

One reportable indication discussed in Volume 9 was investigated further to determine if the recommended disposition had been accomplished. Figure 4.9.14 contained data which exceeded code acceptance criteria. The recommended disposition of this was detailed in a letter dated August 17, 1976, and signed by the B&W Level III examiner. The Level III evaluation was that the indica-tions represented an area of probable lack of penetration of a lug-to-pipe weld. It was recommended that the design be checked to

'

determine if a repair was necessary. FPC took action on this as documented on work request 7-01002 dated August 24, 1976, repaired it per W-97-1627, 1626 and 1680, and reinspected it on September 16, 1976.

'

Seven additional' indications were evaluated by the Level III examiner utilizing examination data, reexamination data and data from complementary NDE examinations. However, the inspector in i

reviewing data discovered some indications which apparently exceed code acceptance criteria which had not been adequately evaluated as listed below:

o a.

Figure 4.4.995.2 for a 0.61" thick material records a 360 re-

'

flector at 125% DAC and an indication 0.5 inches long from 100% to 100% DAC. There is a graphical sketch attached which was signed by a Level II examiner. The sketch indicates the

'

reflection is from the root area. There are no notes with regard to damping, no counter bore is shown and an evaluation

!

by a Level III examiner apparently was not performed.

b.

Figure 4.4.790 data lists two arc strikes and references only the diameter. There is no other assessment of these or

'

definition of depth of metal removal.

c.

Figure 4.4.951 references an indication of 100% DAC for 360 with no further evaluation.

d.

Figure 4.4.997 lists an indication in 0.52 inch thick material i

with a maximum amplitude of 125% DAC with 100% to 100% of one

'

inch.

e.

The data recorded on Figure 4.4.775 contains several reflectors which exceed 100% DAC. The material is 0.28 inches thick and a reflector is listed as being 0.45 inches from 100% to 100%

DAC. There is a graphical sketch attached and a note on the i

data sheet indicates one is dampable. An evaluation by a Level II examiner is shown on the sketch but no evaluation by a Level III examiner.

The licensee is committed to 'he ASME Section XI, 1971 issue t

through Winter of 1972 addenda.

ASME Code Section II,1971 issue, Article 221 states in part that i

all nondestructive examination results shall be evaluated by

'

qualified NDE personnel. Article IS-311 states that evaluation

'

shall be made of any indications which exceed acceptance standards

! -

specified in ASME Section III. For the welds in questions, ASME Section III, Article IX-3470 requires that all indications that

'

produce a response greater than 20% of the reference level shall be investigated to the extent that the operator can determine the shape, identity and location of all.such reflectors and evaluate-them in terms of the acceptance standards of NB-5330.

The Summer 1971 Addenda to Section XI modifies Article IS-311 to-read that evaluation shall be made of any indications detected i

during any of the examinations including the preoperational ex-aminations which exceed acceptance standards specified in Sec-

,

!

tion III, 1971 Edition. This is further modified by Errata to j-Summer 1971 Addenda, issued in Winter 1971 Addenda to Section XI,

to clarify that evaluation shall be to the Section III edition applicable to ths crastruction of the component.

Article IS-312.2 is modified by Summer 1971 Addenda to Section II

}-

to state that all indications which produce a response greater than l

100% of the reference level shall be investigated and evaluated in l

accordance with IS-311. Article NB-5330 of Section III states that j-discontinuities are unacceptable if the amplitude exceeds the i

reference level and have lengths which exceed:

1/4 inch for e up to 3/4 inch j

1/3 t for t from 3/4 inch to 2 1/4 inches 3/4 inch for t over 2 1/4 inch

!

("t" is the thicknesc of the weld being examined)

The indications of Figures 4.4.775, 4.4.995.2, and 4.4.997 exceed the above acceptance criteria. The report does not reference any l

evaluation of the reflectors in some cases, and in others only contains a geometric sketch with no text explaining the final-

'

determination and disposition. This is an apparent noncompliance

to 10 CFR 50.55a, item g, and represents inadequate evaluation of

'

data per ASME Sections XI and III, as referenced therein. This is

,,

identified as noncompliance 76-22-Al(II).

l The licensee contacted B&W personnel by telephone and discussed j

some of the data. No reason for the apparent lack of evaluation could be given.

i

!

.

The evaluation of Class 2 systems indications was performed by FPC

,

personnel. The results have been transmitted to B&W for inclusion

in the Revision 1 to the final PSI report. As a result of the

,

evaluations, FPC has committed to perform a limited number of ultrasonic reexaminations on a periodic basis to attempt to ascer-tain if changes in the system's integrity can be distinguished.

The inspector requested that the licensee specifically identify which welds would be reexamined by UT and for how many outages.

z

'

The licensee agreed to incorporate specifics in the final PSI report. With regard to the remainder of the Class 2 components, RT

,

!

will be utilized as the volumetric technique.

Reactor Internals Inspections

The licensee performed visual inspections of the reactor internals before and af ter hot functionals to determine effects of flows and other stresses.on the components.

Surveillance Procedure SP-298 was used to conduct the inspection after the hot functional and Procedure SP-306 was used prior to hot functionals. The procedures provided guida.nce and check.*ists for visual inspections of the core support assembly, plenum as: embly, vessel, closure head and nozzle sealt. The initial inspectfan was conducted in September 1975 and the post-hot functional inspection in September / October 1976. The latter inspection revealed:

a.

no flow induced flaws; b.

some fabrication flaws; and c.

some slight damage due to handling.

Section XI of the ASME Code, Item 1.15 of Table IS-261 requires a visual inspection of interior surfaces and internals and integrally welded internal supports. These inspections were conducted in September 1975 per B&W procedure ISI-350 and the results recorded as " clear" on Figures 1.15.1 and 1.15.2 of the preoperational inspection report. The licensee will cross reference the pre-operational inspection final report to reflect those indications that are not presently recorded in the PSI report.

The inspector observed valve-to-pipe welding and actuator installa-tion on the two decay heat lines. The valve locations and nomen-

'

clatures were verified per FD-302-641. The inspector noted that the welds are subject to in-service inspection and the replacement invalidates the preservice inspection data. The licensee stated they would examine the replacement welds and incorporate the data in the baseline. On November 29, 1976, the 'icensee informed the inspector that B&W personnel had visited the site and ultrasonically examined the applicable welds.

Plant Operational Status Followup on the operational status of the plant was continued during this inspection.

The master punch list, maintained by the licensee, was examined to determine the status.of preoperational testing and construction activity.

In summary, a list of eight items was compiled and identified as restraints on initial criti-cality.

There were no items identified as a restraint on initial fuel loading.

Followup on the initial criticality restraints will be conducted on

subsequent inspections.

3.

Hydraulic Snubbcr Sight Class Leakage Followup on the replacement program of leaky sight glasses on hydraulic snubbers revealed that approximately 45% of the snubbers in the reactor building have been repaired, tested and re-installed.

All snubbers have been removed from the reactor building for repair of the sight glass and testing prior to reinstallation. The licensee estimates this program will be completed by December 15, 1976.

V The repair and test work are being conducted as prescribed in HP-116, "PPC Hydraulic Snubber Installation Inspection," and SP-201,

"In-Service Inspection of Hydraulic Snubber.

These procedures were reviewed and the work-in-progress was witnessed by the inspector.

There were no questions or comments concerning this activity. The inspector examined a random sample of the repaired and re-installed snubbers. None of the snubbers had evidence of oil leakage. A spot check of tcat data revealed that the tested snubbers are within the established test criteria. Followup on this item will be conducted during future inspections.

Annunciator Alarm Procedures

.

.

.

During inspection 50-302/76-16, unresolved item 76-16/1 was identi-fied due to differences in setpoints, probable causes, symptoms, automatic actions and operator action between the same annunciator alarm on A and B panels. In a response on this item,' dated October 18, 1976, licensee management described the problem and corrective

,

actions. Followup, by the inspector, revealed that the alarm

-

procedures have been completely rewritten and the problem has been corrected.

"N Preoperational test TP 452-2, " Communications System Functional,"

has been completed and the results accepted. The Power Radio Service Base has been installed and is functioning in the control room.

'

d.

Fire Training for Plant Personnel Resolution of this item was accomplished by ammendment 48 of the FSAR. Section 7.2.2, Appendix 12B of the FSAR now states that key fire brigade personnel will be trained in the use of fire equipment, rather than all plant personnel. Previous inspections verified that key fire brigade personnel were trained.

.

11.

Zero Power Physics Testing Comments were noted in inspection report 50-302/76-7 concerning the zero power physics testing program.

Followup revealed that the issues have been res61ved.

  • Previously the inspector noted that the limiting values for measured moderator temperature coefficient and control rod group withdrawal-rate appeared to be less conservative than the values in Table 14-3 of the FSAR.

The inspector verified that the procedure has been revised and is now consistent with the FSAR.
