4.
Independent Inspection Effort a.
Walk-through Inspection A general walk-through inspection of tb auxiliary building and reactor building was made.
General housekeeping and overall welding and inspection activities were observed.
b.
Preservice Inspection (PSI) Plans The inspector discussed with licensee personnel the plans for PSI. These discussions revealed the following:
.
.
RII Rpt. No. 50-364/78-17 I-2 (1) The PSI will be conducted in accordance with the Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,Section XI, 197, cdition with addenda through the sumner of 1975.
(2) The first planned inspections are portions of the Main Steam and Feedwater systems. These inspections are planned for the latter part of November after steam hydrostatic testing.
'
generator (3) The remainder of the piping inspections are planned for after cold hydrostatic testing, which is now scheduled for March 10, 1979.
-
,
(4) PSI of the reactor vessel is planned for abou+ October of 1979.
(5) Eddy current testing of steam generator tubing is planned for December of 1978.
In addition to discussion of PSI plans, the inspector observed several large diameter main steam pipe welds in the containment and main steam valve room that had been prepared for UT inspection.
,c.
Safety-Related Pipe Welding The inspector observed the following pipe welds during in process welding:
Line Q-2-E21-CCB-1B-E7843 Welds 43, 45, 46 and 47 Line Q-2 B13-HCB-41-E7670 Weld IF Line Q-2-E21-CCB-1C-E-8927 Weld 24F
.
.
Line Q-2-N21-EBD-4-EG2-7 Welds 14 and 15 Line Q-2-N21-EBD-4-EG2-8 Weld 43
.
.
.
RII Rpt. No. 50-364/78-17 I-3 For these welds the inspector examined the " Weld Control Record" for the socket welds, " Controlled Weld Joint Record" for the butt welds, the weld appearance, use of the correct welding filler material, and use of the correct welding procedure.
'
In the areas inspected, no items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
5.
Exit Interview The inspector had no items of noncompliance or deviations.' These findings and a list of areas inspected were turned over to D. K. '4 alters (RII) for presentation at the exit to be conducted on Octobe. 27, 1978.

Unresolved Items
.
No unresolved items were identified during this inspection.
4.
Independent Inspection The in place storage of twelve electrical penetration assemblies (EPA)
was o.
-ved on the inside of the containment. Covers for the EPA's identitied as B020, B025, B028, B030, B031 and B038 were not installed and no work involving the EPA's was being performed.
In the EPA's identified as having covers removed, a metal can was observed in one, rags were observed in two, and construction debris was observed in all six.
.
.
,e
.
RII Report No. 50-364/78-17 II-2 Field Quality Control Procedure (FQCP) 5.2.4, " Storage and Handling",
paragraph 5.1.4.2, states " Covers removed for internal access at any time for any reason shall be replaced immediately after the activity is complete."
The failure to follow FQCP 5.2.4 appears to be in noncompliance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V and has been identified as an infraction, 364/78-17-02: Failure to follow procedure for EPA storage.
.
Instrumentation (Components and Systems I) Observation of Work 5.
and Work Activities The inspector selected the reactor coolant flow process variable in the reactor protection system for reactor coolant loops 1 and 2.
The inspector observed the instrument component and system installation from the reactor coolant flow transmitters identified as FT414 (loop 1); FT415(loop 1); FT416 (loop 1); FT424 (loop 2); FT425 (loop 2);
and FT426 (loop 2) to the trip logic in process instrument cabinets identified as:
PIC2505A-1, PIC2505A-2 and PIC2505A-3, including sensing lines and other associated devices. The component and system identification and location, support and protection, in-process inspection and physical separation were observed. The inspector noted that the installed sensing lines for the six flow transmitters were not sloped in the area cf the flow transmitters as required by Note 5 of the associated er ection traveler drawings.
A slope of one Inch per foot minimum was specified by the erection traveler drawings. FQCP 5.4 4.2,
" Instrument Installation and Inspection," paragraph 4.1 states part that "... instrument sensing and control lines
.. shall be installed in accordance with approved drawings, specifications and codes." The reactor coolant flow transmitters had been inspected and accepted.
This failure to follow procedure appears to be in noncompliance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V and is identified as an infraction, 364/78-17-01: Failure to Follow Procedure for Instrument Installation.
6.
Instrumentation (Components and S3 stems I) - Review of Quality Records The quality records for receipt inspection, material certification, storage, handling, identification, and installation were reviewed for the instrument components and systems listed in paragraph 5.
Within the areas examined there were no items of noncompliance identi-fie.

The inspector reviewed cable issue control procedures and use of specified material.
The cable location, routing, separation and protection between instrument component and process instrument cabinets was visually inspected. Cable tray identification, grounding, bonding, and loading were inspected. Cable terminations were verified visually using cable termination scheme and cable lead identification tags.
Within the areas examined there were no items of noncompliance identi-fied.
8.
Instrumentation (Cable and Terminations I) - Review of Quality Records The quality records for receipt inspection, materials certification and installation were reviewed for the instrument cables listed in paragraph 7.
The cable pulling and termination records had been completed in accordance with FQCP 5.4.3.1., " Cable Pulling",and FQCP 5.4.3.1. A, " Cable Terminations". Cable traceability was verified.
Within the areas examined there were no items of noncompliance identi-fied.
9.
Exit Inte rview The inspector met with the licensee representatives and others denoted in paragraph 1, at the conclusion of the inspection. The scope and findings of the inspection of electrical penetration assembly in place storage, instrument cable installation and records, and instrument component installation and records were discussed.
Infractions 364/78-17-01 and 364/78-17-02, failure to follow procedures, were discussed in detail.
