Program Review

,

The documents referenced above were reviewed to determine whether administrative controls for design changes / modifications have incorporated the requirements as described in the Calvert Cliffs QA Manual, Revision 55.

The review determined that administrative controls have been established which verify the following:

--

procedures for control of design changes / modifications have been developed design droment control has been established

--

--

channels of communications between the design organization and the individual responsible for implementation exist

--

d,ign change / modification packages are being converted into plant records.

methods exist for identifying and reporting those desiga

--

changes / modifications which are within the scope of 10 CFR 50.59

--

procedural controls exist for temporary modifications, lifted leads and jumpers responsibilities have been delineated in writing to assure

--

the implementation of the above.

One item of noncompliance and one unresolved item are discussed below.

(1) During the inspector's review of FCR 78-26, Fabrication and Installation of Sleeving Platform, it was noted that the platform was fabricated and installed as non-safety related even though the 10 CFR 50.59 safety evaluation required the platform to be fabricated and installed to Seismic I safety related requirements.

After further review, the inspector established that the follow-ing sequence of events had occurred.

During a refueling outage, the licensee determined that sleeving of the guide tubes due to guide tube wear was required.

The licensee also determined that in order to accomplish this, a sleeving platform would have to be fabricated and installed.

The licensee's Engineering Department performed a 10 CFR 50.59 safety evaluation and determined that there was no unreviewed safety question involved and further determined that the platform was not required to be safety relate.

The sleeving platform was tiien fabricated and installed outside the purvue of the QA Program (e.g., no QC inspections, no safety-related materials and non safety related maintenance requests) with the exception of the bolt holes.

Subsequent to the installation of the, platform, the licensee determined that the sleeving ple.tform did indeed constitute a facility modification.within the context of the QA Program.

A Facility Change Request (FCR} was then initiated and processed through the station and corporate engineering in one day.

At this time the corporate engineering department made the determination that the original safety evaluation and determination that the platform need not be safety related were incorrect.

A new safety evaluation was issued which stated that the platfom did not involve an unreviewed safety question as it was fabricated and installed to Seismic I/ safety-related criteria.

Subsequent to the determination that the platform was required to be safety related, it remained in use thru the completion of Unit #1 sleeving (approximately 5 days)

without any additional evaluation to determine its adequacy as a safety related structure.

The inspector also noted that physical modifications were required to the Sleeving Platfom to upgrade it to a seismic structure subsequent to its use on the other unit.

The inspector ider.tified the following concerns to the licensee:

What programatic weakness lead to the initial determination

--

that the platform was not safety related?

What programatic weakness permitted the platfom to be

--

used subsequent to the determination that it was required to be safety related.

The failure to use a safety related platform as required by the safety evaluation performed pursuant to 10 CFR 50.59 is a deficiency level item of noncompliance (317/79-16-01; 318/79-13-01).

(2) The mechanism by which acceptance testing reautred as a result of a modification is specified, the work package cover sheet, has been deleted from OAP-15.

The inspector questioned the licensee as to how this requirement of ANSI N45.2.ll was being implemented.

The licensee stated that the work package cover sheet was still being used, and is to be incorporated into CCI-126 no later than December 1,1979.

This item is unresolved pending review by NRC:RI of the above procedure change.

(317/79-16-02; 318/79-13-02).

FCR 75-244, Installati.on of Charging Pump Veat Valves

--

FCR 75-1071, Installation of Pressurizer eressure Instrumentation

--

FCE 77-152, Changing Safety Injection Tank Relief Valve

--

Bottom Blowdown Line

--

FCR 78-26, Fabrication and Installation of Sheeving Platform in Spent Fuel Pool

--

FCR 78-143, Repair of Anchor Bolt on Charging Pump Suction Header Hanger The modifications listed above were reviewed to verify that the following requirements have been implemented.

10 CFR 50.59 reviews were performed and documented

--

design changes modifications were reviewed in accordance

--

with the requirements of the Technical Specifications and the QA Program.

--

design changes modifications were accomplished in accordance with written procedures acceptance testing was accomplished and deemed satisfactory

--

procedures and drawings required to be changed or generated

--

as a result of the design change / mech faction were updated or generated the design change / modification package has been transmitted

--

to the record retrieval department for incorporation as a plant record.

No items of noncompliance were identified, however, cas mresolved item is discussed belo (1) The inspector requested to see the design input documentation for the following FCR packages:

FCR-75-244;-75-101 ;-77-152; -77-1001 ; -78-4; and, -78-26.

The licensee stated that the design work for these modifications were performed by contracted engineering finns and that these firms maintain the design input documentation.

The licensee further stated that this information would be retrieved for the NRC's review on a future inspection.

This item is unresolved pending review of the design input documentation by NRC:RI during a subsequent inspection.

(317/79-16-03; 318/79-13-03)

6.

Station Organization The inspector noted that Memc J. B. Bullock to All Electric Production Department Employees propagated an organizational change at the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Station which was implemented on July 1,1979.

Further investigation identified that the organizational change constituted a change to the Unit 1 and 2 Technical Specifications, Section 6.2.2.

It was also identified that on July 24, 1979, the station had submitted an application for amendment to their licensee to change the Technical Specifications to reflect the organizational change.

10 CFR 50.59 states that a licensee can not make changes to the facility as described in the FSAR without prior Commission approval if that change involves a change to the Technical Specifications.

This item is being forwarded to NRC management for determination as to its acceptability.

This item is unresolved pending the above determination (317/ 79-16-4; 318/79-13-04).

7.

Unresolved Items Unresolved items are matters about which more infonnation is required in order to ascertain whether they are acceptable items, items of non-compliance or deviations.

Unresolved items disclosed during this inspection are discussed in paragraph 5.

8.

Exit Interview The inspectors met with the licensee representatives (denoted in paragraph 1) at the conclusion of the inspection on October 5,1979.

The inspectors summarized the purpose, scope, and findings of the inspection.

During this meeting, the unresolved items and items of noncompliance were identified.
