The repair work on the crossover leg restraints and hot leg pipe whip restraints is complete for both units. These restraints were procured under purchase order number C-56372 and f abricated under the requirements of Duke's specification number NICS-1117.00-13 According to this specification, velding was controlled by requirements of ASHI Section IX while inspection of fabrication (welding) was controlled by Subsection NF,Section III of the ASME Code. Upon receipt, the licensee inspected and nonconformed these restraints for poor welding.

This condition precipitated the field repair program performed by DPC. Repair welding and extensive inspection requirements were described on process control drawing number MCF0-234 while weld joint details were identified on drawing number MC-1070-16, Revision 6.

Field weld check-off list Form M-21 A was used to document weld repair and subsequent NDE inspections for each weld.

The inspector inspected the following welds.

Unit 1 Loop A, Crossover Leg - Welds ICLR-2T, -21, -25B and -25T Loop B, Hot Leg (H.L.) - Stif feners and Saddle Plate

RII Rpt. Nos. 50-369/78-40, and 50-370/78-17 I-4 Unit 2 Loop A and B H.L.-Stiffeners and Saddle Plates In addition, the inspector reviewed M-21A forms for the aforementioned crossover leg restraint welds and for the following hot leg restraint welds:

6-A-11, 6-B-6, 7-B-16, 8-A-11, 8-A-12, and 8-A-16.

Performance qualification records of welders, involved with the repair work, were reviewed for compliance with ASME Section IX requirements. Those selected were identified by stencil numbers M23, M57, M63, H25 and 296.

Within the areas inspected, no items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.

Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary Piping-Review of Storage Inspection Records and Audits (Unit 2)

Storage inspections are performed in accordance with DPC procedure P-3, Revision 9, which establishes measures to assure storage conditions are consistent with ANSI N45.2.2 requirements.

Inspection results are documented on Form P-3C.

Records of inspections performed between Octobet 23, 1978 and November 15, 1978 were reviewed to ascertain whether (1) storage requirements were being maintained, (2) identified deficiencies were corrected in a timely manner, and (3) inspections were being performed in the required frequency.

Within these areas, the inspector noted that the inspection reports identified several problems, including valve and pipe openings left without caps, piping and valves resting on the ground, valves and fittings stored upright causing water and dirt to accumulate, deteri-oration of wooden cribbing causing stored items to rest on the ground, and poor grounds keeping conditions. Discussions with DPC's QA repre-sentative disclosed that this was a continuing problem which had been brought to management's attention with the request that corrective measures be taken. Management's action on this matter was documented by memorandum f rom site management to file on October 25, 1978. The inspector stated that Region II would look into this area on future inspections to determine what progress had been made. This was identified as inspector follow-up it em Number 370-17-01.

Records of QA audits associated with pressure boundary piping were reviewed to ascertain whether they were consistent with procedure QA-300, Revision 7,

" Construction Surveillance".
