f DETAILS 1.0 Plant Inspection Tours The inspector observed work activities in progress, completed work and plant status in several areas during inspection tours. Work was examined for defects, compliance with regulatory requirements, and license conditions. Particular note was taken of the presence of quality control inspectors and quality control evidence such as inspection records, material identification, nonconforming material identification, housekeeping and equipment preservatio The inspector interviewed craft supervision, craft and quality control personnel in the work area Observations are noted below:

--

The inspector was informed of a problem with Agastat FGP relay seating at another nuclear facility. The inspector reviewed documentation associated with PECO Significant Deficiency Report 129 that described a generic rework program on the Limerick Agastat relay bases. The relay sockets will be tested for proper connection between the relay and the socket in accordance with procedure FE-11. The site program should ensure proper installations of the !

relay The inspector was informed that Bechtel audits for another facility had identified improper procurement practices at the General Electric (GE) Philadelphia switchgear division plant. The inspector asked the licensee if spare or replacement parts have been procured through the Philadelphia plant. (87-02-01)

--

The inspector was provided GE Service Advice Letter 188.1 regarding operability of HFA auxiliary relays. Mechanical binding has prevented proper operation of the relays at other facilities. The l inspector asked the licensee whether an investigation had been

!

performed of the Limerick relays to identify whether they are susceptible to a similar problem and to review licensee handling of l Service Advice Letters. (87-02-02)

All observed activities were in accordance with applicable procedure and associated documentation. No concerns were identifie The inspector observed the performance of a QC final inspection on l pipe support GBB-212-H8. The QC inspector documented discrepancies between the as-built hanger and the as-built drawings regarding a gap between the support and adjacent pipe lug The inspector witnessed a hydrostatic test on portions of the .

Residual Heat Removal system piping as shown on isometrics HBB-l 240-1 and GBB-202-1. The Pressure Test Record, inspection lists, QC l Inspection Report 2M-49A-21-62-1 and water quality test records were l reviewed. The test was witnessed by Bechtel QC, the Authorized Nuclear Inspector (ANI), and PEC0 QA. The pressure test hold durations and walkdown examinations were properly performed. The inspector had no concern l

". 13 The inspector reviewed the precautions for welding to valve Vendor precautions for valve position during welding were examined and found consistent with site procedures. Site engineering personnel were knowledgeable of the requirements and field control through work packages. The inspector had no concern Field issued coated electrodes are disbursed per WFMC-1 in portable

-

rod ovens to minimize moisture absorption that can lead to potential weld discontinuities. The inspector toured the Reactor Building and primary containment to monitor inprocess control of the low hydrogen electrodes. On February 20 portable ovens W-91 and W-774 were discovered de-energized in the field. The electrodes had been issued by the rod room as requiring the use of the ovens. On February 23, oven 246 was found in a cold condition. The Bechtel ASME QA manual Welding Standard WFMC-1 requires that portable rod ovens shall be continuously heated except during transit tim Failure to adhere to the quality requirements constitutes a violation of 10 CFR 50 Appendix B Criterion (87-02-06)

The licensee subsequently issued Finding Report 2N-552 and Nonconformance Report 11738 to document the noted concerns. Bechtel reviewed the items that were being welded and concluded that the filler material could actually be issued in non-heated container The involved welders and their supervisors were reinstructed on the requirements for filler metal handling and controls. A site wide training bulletin was issued to reinstruct welding personnel that rod ovens must be energized and checkr.d at frequent intervals, The inspector reviewed the following documents that pertain to the drywell spray system piping:

Southwest Fabrication, Welding and Radiographic records The inspector verified that the shop welds had been radiographically examined in accordance with the FSAR commitments. The installation of the spray rings and associated piping to the containment penetration was vibJally examined. The piping was found installed in the engineering specified configuration. Most of the supports were only temporarily installed at this time. The inspector had no conc,rn .0 Reactor Pressure Vessel and Internals The inspector reviewed General Electric (GE) specification 22A4111,

spring pack assembly was verified. An inspection of the RPV interior identified that the tops of the Control Rod Drive (CRD) housings were protected with plastic cap The specification recommended that the tops of the CRD housings should be 0.060 inches high prior to welding to accomodate expected shrinkage. Discussions with GE personnel identified that engineering has approved setting the tops of the

'

housings higher to accomodate actual shrinkage of up to 0.140 inches. The inspector had no concern The inspector reviewed GE traveler packages 2-282T, "Feedwater Sparger Fitup" and 2-220T, "SBLC and Differential Pressure Line Installation". The packages had not received a final QC revie The data sheets were found properly completed. The inspector had no concerns, The inspector observed automatic machine welding operations in CRD stub tube housing 6041. Traveler package w-200T and Special process control sheet Z-200S-1 were reviewed for the weld. The root had been penetrant tested and appropriate alignment checks had been per-formed. The inspector had no concerns on the groove wel No violations were identifie .0 Electrical Components The inspector conducted an inspection of motor operated valves which have been installed in the plan The following documents were reviewed by the inspector:

-

Procedure FM-4, "Limitorque Rework Program" The inspector observed rework activity and associated QC inspection activity for several "Q" operators in the rework sho Personnel training records were examined that documented the crafts had received special training regarding the operator rework activities. The use of Mobil 28 and Exxon EP-0 grease was noted, vendor supplied non-qualified parts were removed from the operator, vendor supplied wires and lugs were removed and replaced with Rockbestos wire, the proper gasket material for the operator reassembly was used, heat shrink tubing was provided for motor leads entering the switch compartment, and locknuts or staking were provided where necessary. The inspector additionally observed the adjustment of a torque switch by PEC0 field j engineerin The inspector reviewed IE Information Notice 87-08 " Degraded Motor Leads in Limitorque DC Operators", Bechtel Quality Action Request 1 F-555 and PECO Surveillance Check Report ILC-053. The licensee investigated twenty-two potentially affected limitorque operators and I found one installed at Unit 1 that utilizied the nomex-kapton l insulated leads. The limitorque operator was subsequently removed I from service.

below:

(RI-87A-0012) The NRC received an anonymous allegation of improper fitup activities in the drywel Investigation of the welding activities found a come-along attached to an ASME Class 1 Reactor Pressure Vessel drain line. The root pass had been made at Field Weld 201 which had been designated as a closure weld. Review of the weld documentation identified that the cold pull deflections had not been verified by field engineering

,

in accordance with specification P301-2 prior to welding the root pass.

l Failure to properly control the closure weld is a violation of 10 CFR 50 Appendix B Criterion (87-02-08)
