DCP-60, Item No. 6 above, was cancelled because the work had already been completed. Item No. 7 was voided because the deficiency was identified in SDR No. HB-0100, and consequently, no DCP identifica-tion number was assigned. The inspector determined that the design change packages examined were complete, and reflected the implemen- l tation of procedural controls for review, processing, and final dis-position and approval to close out of the startup deficiency report for design changes and modifications. The information provided in the packages was adequate to verify the program implementation. The Startup QA Engineer and his staff have reviewed, concurred and approved design changes, and performed surveillance and monitoring as well as witness the mandatory witness points of work completio No violations were identifie l 3.0 QA/QC Overview The inspector reviewed the Startup QA Program and associated activities /

4.0 Preoperational Test Procedure Review and Verification 4.1 PTP Review and Verification The PTPs listed below were reviewed in preparation for test witness-ing, for technical and administrative adequacy and for verification that testing is planned to adequately satisfy regulatory guidance and licensee commitments. They were also reviewed to verify licensee review and approval, proper format, test objectives, pre-requisites, initial conditions, test data recording requirements and system return to norma PTP-BE-1, Reactor Core Spray, Revision 0, June 25, 1985; and,

--

PTP-SF-1C, Rod Worth Minimizer System, Revision 0, June 14, 1985 4.2 Findings During review of PTP-BE-1 the inspector had several questions concern-ing core spray injection valve stroking with maximum differential pressure. GE Preoperational Test Specification, GE 22A2271 AZ, GE 12, Low Pressure Core Spray, Revision 2, states that the injection valves should start to open with 730 psid or the maximum psid practicabl The licensee intends to stroke the injection valves with full core spray pump shutoff head on one side of the valve and atmospheric pressure on the opposite side. This was discussed with the senior site GE representative and determined to be acceptable.

The inspector had no further questions.

Review of PTP-SF-IC (a non-Q procedure) indicated that one prerequi-site was overlooked. The Rod Sequence Control System (RSCS) was not I bypassed. Failure to bypass the RSCS as stated in the GE preopera-tional test specification could cause erroneous test results due to RSCS interaction with the Rod Worth Minimizer system. The licensee reviewed PTP-SF-1C and subsequently agreed that RSCS should be by-passed. PTP-SF-1C will be revised to ensure bypassing of the RSCS is incorporated into the test prerequisites. This item will be re-viewed during a subsequent routine inspection. This item was also discussed at length with the startup manager subsequent to the exit meeting on June 28, 198 No violations were identifie .

One additional item identified in Inspection Report 50-354/85-13, Paragraph 2.3, concerning attachment of GTP-25, Final Air Balance and GTP-24, Filter Testing to PTP-GT-1, Drywell Ve :tilation, was reviewe PTP-GT-1 has been revised by on-the-spot (OTS) change No.-5 to re-quire GTP-24 and 25 to be attached to PTP-GT-1 to ensure they are PORC reviewed for test results as part of the PTP-GT-1 test packag The inspector had no further question .0 Plant Tours The inspector made several tours of the various areas of the facility to obPrve work in progress, housekeeping, cleanliness controls and status of construction and preoperational test activitie .1 Findings During one of the plant tours the inspector noted water coming out of a floor drain in the 'A' RHR pump room. Approximately one to two inches of water had accumulated on the floor. A portable welder was sitting near the floor drain in the vater. This was reported to site safety department by the inspector and subsequently remove t Floor drains and equipment drains in Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS)

vaults are required to be connected in a manner that will not allow back flow into an ECCS vault. The inspector questioned the possibility of com-mon mode flooding between ECCS Vaults since many of the drains were ex-posed to vault atmosphere. A review of P&ID M-97-1 Sheet 2 of 3, Revision 4 indicated that the system was divided into a dirty radwaste (DRW) and a clean radwaste (CRW) system. The DRW system was separate and independent

for each ECCS vault with check valves at the DRW sump to prevent backflood-

'

ing. The CRW however, indicated several connections between the ECCS vault The CRW system consists of numerous four inch equipment drains in each ECCS

,

Vault. A review of FSAR Section 9.3.3, Equipment and Floor Drainage Systems, indicated that system design was such that backflooding could not occur.

'

'

The inspector questioned the licensee concerning the above. The licensee produced several plumbing and draining drawings that identified each drain in each ECCS vault. The licensee and the inspector using the appropriate drawing located each drain in three ECCS Vaults. The drains that were open to atmosphere were all part of the DRW system. With the exception of several drains that had temporary fittings to allow drain system testing, all CRW drains were covered with a plate welded to the equipment drain pipe and the drain funnel or with a blank welded plate if they were c.-

signated as not to be used, in accordance with Bechtel drawing P-8000-0 Revision 10. Closure of CRW drains in accordance with design drawings will eliminate the possibility of backflooding through the CRW n stem. The inspector also noted that drain clean-out connection cover plates were to l

be screw in plugs which could casily be removed and present a possible common mode flooding pat The inspector stated that this item is un-

, resolved pending removal of temporary fittings and final drain closure t

and development of approved administrative controls to prevent unauthor-ized removal of clean out connection plugs (354/85-30-01).

6.0 Unresolved Items Unresolved items are matters about which more information is required in l order ~to ascertain whether they are acceptable, an item of noncompliance 1 or a deviation. An unresolved item is identified in paragraph .0 Exit Interview i

A management meeting was held at the conclusion of the inspection on June 28, 1985, to discuss the scope and findings as detailed in this report (see Paragraph I for attendees). No written information was provided to the licensee at any time during the inspection.
