The inspector examined procedures and quality records related to the snubber surveillance program. Acceptance criteria ut ezed by the inspector are specified in Technical Specification (TS) 3/4. Review of Snubber Surveillance Procedures The inspector examined the following procedures which control snubber surveillance activities:

(1) Procedure number PT-19.6.0, Visual Inspection of Snubbers on Safety-Related Systems (2) Procedure number PT-19.6.1, Inspection of Snubber Functional Testing (3) Procedure number PT-19.6.3, Inspection of Safety-Related

< Snubbers Which Have Experienced an Unusual Shock (4) Procedure number PT-19.6.4, Safety-Related Snubber Seal Life Monitoring Review of Snubber Surveillance Records The inspector reviewed the results of visual inspections performed on Unit 1 inaccessible snubbers in January 1988 - February 1988. No visually inoperable snubbers were identified during this visual surveillance inspectio The next visual inspection will be scheduled to be performed in 18 months per TS 4.7. The inspector also reviewed the results of functional tests performed on Unit 2 snubbers during January 1988 - February 1988.

Withir the areas inspected, no violations or deviations were ida:,ci fi ed . (Fased) IEB 80-11, Masonry Wall Design (25537)

The licensee responded to IEB 80-11 in letters ',o NRC Region II, dated July 5,1980, November 5,1980, November 25, 1980, and ' December 9, 198 These responses reported that the design re-analyzes required by IEB 80-11 disclosed that approximately 20 walls required modifications to meet seismic design requirement In letters dated July 20, 1983, and April E7,1984, to the NRC Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR), the licensee responded to requests for additional information concerning masonry wall design. These responses provided additional information regarding design criteria used by the licensee in the design re-evaluation of masonry walls and identified the walls that required modification to meet the seismic design requirement The licensee stated in their responses that repairs on the wall requiring upgrading would be scheduled as part of five year modification plant for the Brunswick Plan Final acceptance of the licensee * s design reanalyzes of masonry walls and the schedule for implementation of required repairs is documented in a Safety Evaluation Report (SER), dated January 30, 198 The inspector examined plant modifiestion numbers PM 84-384 and 84-385 which implemented n.odifications to masonry wall numbers 6b, 6 9, 8a, 8c, and 8d, in the control building (PM 84-384) and wall numbers 6a, and 9e, in the diesel generator building (PM 84-385). The inspector examined the complete documenta tion packages for PM 84-384 and 385. These packages included design drawings, design changes, QC inspector records, and the licensee's safety evaluations. The inspector made-~a detailed review of QC inspection records including inspection of welding, structural steel erection, expansion anchor installation, and grouting. The inspector also walked down wall numbers 6a and 9e in the diesel generator building and

,

wal1 numbers 8a and 8d in the control building and examined the completed

modifications. Based on the walkdowns and review of the inspection records, the inspector concluded that the modifications were completed in accordance with the design requirement However, discussion with licensee engineer and review of QC inspection records and various site procedures used to control implementation of plant modifications disclosed the following unresolved ite The records documenting inspection of welds for the wall modifications consist of a stamp on the drawing which is initialed and datec' by the QC inspector. Discussion with QC inspector personnel and licensee engineers disclosed that this stamp is the only record documenting that the all welds on the drawing were completed in accordance with licensee procedures, specifically BSEP specification 005-010, Visual Weld Acceptance Criteria, CP&L procedure number OSPP-WLD 601, General Welding Procedure, and BSEP Specification 248-107, Instal-lation of Seismic Pipe Supports and Miscellaneous Structural Steel. The inspector questioned the licensee inspectors regarding records identifying ~

the welder, and documentation of fitup inspection for welds, when L- _ , _ _ --- --

Based on review of the licensee's actions to complete IE Bulletin 80-11 requirements during inspections which are documented in NRC Inspection Report Numbers 50-325, 324/88-22, 85-27, 85-40, and 87-16, and review of the licensee's design evaluations by the NRC office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, IE Bulletin 80-11 is' close Within the areas insp.ected, no violations or deviation were identifie .

The inspection scope and results were summarized on June 17, 1988, with those persons indicated in paragraph 1. The inspector described the areas inspected and discussed in detail the inspection findings listed belo The licensee did not identify as proprietary any of the material provided to or reviewed by the inspectors during this inspectio Dissenting comments were not received from the license Unresolved Item 325, 324/88-22-01, Determine Adequacy of QC Inspection Procedures for Inspection of Plant Modifications.
