Inspection of Rebar During a walk-through inspection of the f acility the inspector observed that chipping of the concrete in the north wall of the fuel transfer canal for construction of the shield walls and slabs around the fuel t ransfer tubes had exposed the reinforcing steel and in some inst:nces the surface of the steel had been marked by the chipping *.ols.

The inspector was informed by the licensee's representative ti.st inspection of this work had been performed in accordance with QC procedure QC-1-2 " General Construction and Structural Concrete "Section V " Field Inspection (Preplacement)."

Checklists used fo: this inspection include " Inspector's Concrete Checkout Sheet" and " Concrete Placement Checklist Sheet."

Neither the procedure nor the checklists require that the physical condi-tion of the reinforcing steel be inspected nor establish criteria for permissible defectc. in the sel.

The inspection records do

'

not identify the chipping tool markings.

This ites (70-15-01) is unresolved pending review by the NRC inspector of the licensee's evaluation of damage to the reinforcing steel and requirements for inspection of reinforcing steel for damage following its exposure by chipping.

4.

Deviation Reports a.

Instrumentation The inspector examined DR Nos. 0513, 0549, 0568, 0613, and 0628.

In each case the DR adequately describes the deficiency and its disposition.

Corrective action, to prevent recurrence of similar problems, is evaluated and prescrAbed if considered necessary. The disposition actions were ver$1".ed; reinspections of the items were conducted.

The DR's were complete, legible, reviewed by QC and readily retrier;sle.

b.

Structural Welding The inspector examined DR Nos. 0602 and 0622 together with QC Inspection Report (IR) Nos. 2352 and 2983 which reported nonconforming conditions.

In each case the DR or IR was complete, legible and readily retrievable.

DR No. 0602 and the IR's had been properly closed out.

DR No. 0622 had been dispositioned but the disposition action was incomplete and the DR was not yet closed out.

Calibration and Trip Set Points Installed electrical equipment was being calibrated and trip-set by a subcontractor, Multi-Amp Testing Services Corp. The inspector observed the testing work being performed on an installed electrical panc? EEH-22-DC, in accordance with Multi-Amp Specification MESCO 70-55, Revision 3, September 25, 1975.

A Multi-Amp High Current DC Test Set (0-25,000 amperes range) equipped with a digital read-out timer was used in the testing. The inspector examined personnel records and interviewed Multi-Amp supervisory and testing personnel and determined that they were qualified to perform this work.

Per procedure, dated Multi-A=p stickers were being affixed to equipment on which electrical testing had been completed.

Calibration and trip-setting records were examined on the following safety-related valve motors: 10DR, 11DR, 9BR, and ICR.

The records were found on Multi-Amp Form MAESCO No. 22,

"Lov Voltage Power Circuit Breaker Test Results," and included identification, test data, disposition, and approvals by the Multi-Amp Field Supervisor.

No discrepancies were identified.

7.

Electrical Ouality Records The inspector reviewed the work and inspection records associated with selected safety-relnted electrical equipment and components.

The purpose of this review was to determine whether the records reflected work accomplishment consistent with the requirements.

The records on the following equipment and cceponents were selected for review:

-

125-volt battery and racks, No. EE-H2-1.

125.vcit DC bus and breakers, No. EE-R2-2DC.

b.

Storage, Randling, and Installation Records The inspector examined records for each of the selected electrical items, which confirmed that the required storage, handling, and installation requirements had been met.

Preventive Maintenance Cards had been completed for each equipment item, and included periodic checks for cleanliness, rotation, heaters activated, and desiccant condition. These records were fcund to be complete up to the date that the equipment was turned over to the constructor's test and startup group.

Following turnover, these pericdic checks were fc;nd to have been generally waived, based upon a statement in the constructor's Preventive Maintenance Specification SP-4 that preventive maintenance checks could be waived if the equipment had been operated within the manth preceding the scheduled check.

The inspector questioned this practice inasmuch as no records were maintained to establish dar.es of equipment operation.

The licensee stated that this procedure would be reviewed.

Except for the waiving of preventive maintenance checks follow-ing turnover, no discrepancies were identified in the storage, handling, and installation records.

This item (76-15-02) is unresolved.
