Matters discussed and comments, on the part of management personnel, wereJas follows:

C',

1.

The inspector indicated that he had reviewed and was satisfied with.the.Bechtel procedures on design' interface control.

(Report Details, Paragraph 1)

!

2.

The frequency of QA audit on design engineering groups appected to be insufficient. However, the inspector noted that there are significant improvements in recent audit activities.

.

.

.

3.

The inspector stated that it was his understanding that Bechtel

,

is'to supplement their previous report on rebar spacing nonconformance evaluation.

Such analysis is to directly reflect the PSAR commitments in the areas of design load bases and reactor building design criteria. More detailed design verifying documentation is also to be included in the analysis..

The Bechtel Assistant Project

,.

Engineer noted that~ detailed verification will be provided in accordance with the IE:III inspector's concerns but may not follow the format suggested.

Resolts of Inspection 1.

Bechtel Design Interface Control

-

The inspector reviewed design interface requirements in the areas of:

(1) review, (2) approval, (3) release, (4) distribution, and (5)

revisions.

Bechtel procedures and criteria appear to be adequate and effective.

Documents reviewed:

a.

Engineering Department Procedure (EDP)-4.37, " Preparing (~}

Calculation", Revision 0, dated February 20, 1974.

kl b.

Manager of Engineering Directive TMED)-4.25-0, " Design Interfcce

.

Control", Revision 1, dated February 4, 1975.

t c

MED-4.37-), " Design Calculations", Revison 2, dated July 15, 1974, for Midland Project and Greenwood Unit 1 Project.

2.

Bechtel Design Audit Activities

.

The inspector reviewed Bechtel quarterly master auditing plan covering

.

areas of:

(1) design criteria, (2) calculations, (3) specifications, and (4) interfaces, and audited the following reports of quality assurance audits of engineering design groups:

a.

Design Review Audit on Stress Analysis Group, conducted in November 1974, dated December 20, 1974.

Fifteen (15) Quality Assurance Findings (QAF) were issued as a result of the audit, and training sessions were recommended.

'

.

b.

Design Review Audit document on engineering in February 1974.

c.

c.

Revision 2, dated August 2, 1974.

d.

NQAM Section V, No. 6, " Indoctrination and Training", Revision 3, dated August 2, 1974.

The records indicated adequate (1) checklist, (2) review and followup

-

actions, and (3) personnel qualifications.

The frequency of Bechtel Engineering internal audits has been increased considerably since the latter part of 1974.

3.

Unit 2 Containment Rebar Spacing Nonconformance A review was performed of Bechtel report, Investigation of As-built Rcinforcing Steel Spacing for Midland Containment Wall, Revision 0,

.

f/}

dated December 13, 1974.

The results indicated that the report was

~

N_-

not sufficiency complete relative to:

(1) justification of formula use', (2) design bases consideration, (3) adherence to PSAR reactor d

building design criteria, including loading combinations and acceptance criteria, (4) verification documentation, and (5)

'

mathematical accuracy.

CP Quality Assurance and Bechtel Civil / Structural Department were in agreement with the inspector's findings and are to submit a supplementary report on the rebar spacing nonconformance safety evaluation. Target date of submitting a report is March 28, 1975. The outline of Bechtel's preliminary plan to accomplish the reevaluation included:

(1) code evaluation, design conditions, and

. loading conditions, (2) material identification, (3)~ description of analytical methods, (4) stress level and safety factors, (5)

design / verification process documentation, and (6) discussion on justification of the acceptability of the as-built condition.
