Plant Tour A tour of the site was made to observe the status of the work and construction activities in progress.

The inspector noted the presence of and interviewed QC personnel inspecting work in prog-ress and construction personnel.

Areas observed included: in-stallation of containment drywell and suppression chamber; RHR and Core Spray pump wells; RCIC pump, HPCI pump and RHR piping.

No items of noncompliance were identified.

3.

Primary Containment Receipt and Storage The inspector reviewed P-DM's Field Receiving Reports FRR-1 and FRR-6 for receipt of Unit 1 drywell first course plates.

Receiv-ing inspection had been performed and FRR's signed in accordance with P-DM " Quality Assurance Manual for Nuclear Power Plant Com-ponents," Revision 2 and Specification C-152(Q), Revision 9

" Design Specifications for Furnishing, Detailing, Fabrication, Delivery and Erection of Primary Containment."

The inspector also observed storage of materials and subassemblies for Unit 1 and 2.

The inspector noted the presence of water which had collected on certain of the plates which were stored in the horizontal position.

Paragraph 18.2.2 of Specification C-152(Q)

requires that plates stored in this fashion shall be inspected at least every ten days and any collected water removed.

This problem had been identified by Bechtel.

The inspector reviewed the follow-ing documents:

Quality Action Request (QAR) No. F-050 dated September 15, 1978

.

which identified the problem and requested corrective action.

Bechtel Letter BLC-238 to P-DM dated September 26, 1978 re-

.

questing corrective action.

Bechtel 10M dated November 23, 1978 from contracts to QA

.

stating the P-DM had taken exception to this section of the specification and that Bechtel Engineering was investigating the need for this requirement.

This item is unresolved pendin review by an NRC inspector of the resolution of this question.

4.

Pipe Support Installation - Unit 1 The NRC inspector visually examed the inprocess work on two support structures for conformance to weld requirements, general location, material used and pipe support clearances.

Final licensee inspec-tion on these two supports remains to be completed. The following identifies the supports inspected:

Drawing (Revision)

System Hydro-Load-Pounds 1-P-BC-019-H13 RHR 3386 1-P-BC-044-H04 RHR 4798 Support Hl3 was found to lack the 1/16" clearance on the top of the pipe as required by the drawing.

The pipe was in contact at top and bottom.

The final two welds on the box support (9/16 fillet typical) appear to have an unacceptable surface finish. This is an unresolved item pending engineering review of allowable final clearance. (354/79-02-02)

Support H04 was found to have fillet welds on the angular support

.

member that are questionable as to validating fillet weld require-ments. The welds connect members at an angle of approximately 1500 The NRC inspector discussed this concern with the licensee.

This is an unresolved item pending engineering review for accept-ance criteria or corrective action.

(354/79-02-03)

5.

Calibration of M&TE The inspector reviewed P-DM records of calibration of gages, meters, thermometers and MT equipment for conformance to the requirements of the P-DM QA Manual.

The inspector also examined selected items of M&TE including items used as calibration standards to determine whether they were within the established calibration period and that calibration stickers were attached and identified the required calibration due date.

No items of noncompliance were identified.

.

6.

QC Records The inspector examined the QC records of fabrication and tests as shown below for conformance to the requirements of Specification C-152(Q) and the P-DM QA Manual and Test Procedures.

Fabrication Check Lists (FCL) No. 1, 2 and 58.

.

Fabrication Check List Addenda (FCA) identified on the above

.

FCL's.

The FCL's identified applicable drawings, welding and test procedures; inspection points for P-DM QC and " Hold" points for inspection by the Authorized Nuclear Inspector (ANI); Corrective Action Required (CAR) and Engineering CAR's (ECAR), Inspection and " Hold" points had been signed by QC or ANI as appropriate.

NDE had been performed in accordance with the applicable procedures and the test results were included in the. records package. A random selection of test reports was examined by the inspector together with the certifications, eye examination and qualification records of the NDE inspectors.

No items of noncompliance were identified.

7.

Soray Header Supports The inspector observed welding in. progress for attachment.of Spray Header Support Knife Plates No. 2 and No. 20 to the Dry Well as shown on P-DM Drawing E-7.

Welders cerformed the'6ork per Weld Procedure 68-5.. The Walder Qualification List in possession of tite foreman showed the men currently qualified.

No items of noncompliance were identified.

8.

Subcontractor Surveillance A subcontract for fabrication and installation of Safety / Relief Valve Discharge Lines, Nozzle Extensions and Spray Headers had been awarded by P-DM to Schneider, Inc. of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

The Schneider " Nuclear Site Quality Assurance Manual" had been approved by P-DM in accordance with P-DM letter to Schneider dated January 16, 1979.

2266 j42

The inspector reviewed P-DM Procedure SPS-1, Revision 1, " Surveillance Plan for P-DM Subcontractors" and P-DM Surveillance Inspection Reports since January 29, 1979.

No items of noncompliance were identified.
