Licensee Identified Items 50.55(e)

I a.

(0 pen) Item 370/81-17-01: Rejectable Surface Indications on Personnel Airlocks On September 11, 1981 the licensee informed RII that certain unaccept-

,

!

ablo linear indications (3/4" long) had been identified in vendor welds of the upper personnel airlocks.

The airlocks were manufactured by l

W. J. Wooley Company. The inspector observed subject airlocks and the

!

indications in question.

Nonconformance reports (NCIR(s)) 13075 and 13084 have been issued and repair work was expected to begin shortly.

.

In discussing this matter with the licensee's QA representatives the inspector noted that while both NCIR's were issued early in April of this year, the engineering evaluation and subsequent' notification as a possible 50.55(e) item did not materialize until early September or five months _ later.

In response.to this observation, the licensee stated that a recent revision in the procedure for handling such items had created a backlog of unprocessed NCIR's and it was believed these may have been a part of that backlog. Moreover the licensee stated this backlog has'now been cleared and assured the inspector that their investigation showed this matter was an isolated case.

The inspector stated that RII supervision would be briefed on the delay and failure to report within the specified time limit. Accordingly, this matter was identified as an unresolved item pending review of the licensee's evaluation report and review of field repair records. Unresolved item 370/81-17-01, "PT Indications on Personnel Airlock Welds."

6.

Plant Tour The-inspector conducted a general inspection of the auxiliary and reactor building to interview craft and QC personnel and observe pipe handling, storage, installation and weld consumable control. General housekeeping and cleanliness in and around work / storage areas were observed.

7.

Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary Piping II - Observation of Work an'd Work Activities Piping activities are controlled by ASME Section III 1971 including Summer and Winter 1971 addenda together with applicable standards and QA approved procedures.

Several piping activities were selected, in order to test by direct observa-tion, evaluation of work performance, and record auditing whether work accomplishment was in accordance with Code requirements and SAR commitments.

Activities selected inci 'ded receipt inspection, storage, installation, identification and gene ; tion of pertinent quality records.,The systems /

components selected for this work effort were as follows:

Decay Heat (ND), (ISO-2ND-24)

For the above items, within these systems and the indicated activities, the inspector verified that the followinhg requirements, as applicable had been met:

QC inspections, record keeping, construction / installation testing, material issuance, utilization of qualified personnel.

In addition the inspector selected at random four pipe runs between major components /loca-tions within the reactor coolant pressure boundary, and by observation and drawing review ascertained whether field installation was consistent with applicable drawing / specification requirements.

The selected runs were as follows:

a.

performance of prescribed NDE b.

calibration and use of proper measuring and test equipment c.

qualification of NDE personnel Selected components were identified earlier in this paragraph. Radiographs selected for review were as follows:

Safety Related Piping - Review of Quality Records Records of QA/QC activities are controlled by requirements / codes identified in paragraph 7 above.

Hydrostatic testing of the safety injection system was performed under requirements of the applicable code and procedures H-1 Revision 12 " Pressure Testing" and CP-715 " Hydrostatic Test Procedure for Unit-2 Safety Injection System," Section 6.16 Elevation 732'.

The boundary of the tested pipe system appeared on flow diagram #2562-2.0, Rev. 5.

The inspector reviewed related records to ascertain whether pressures, temperature and time were consistant with code / specifications requirements. The test was conducted on March 6,1981 and the results accepted by the cognizant engineer on April 7, 1981.

Within the areas inspected no violations or deviations were identified.

9.

Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary Piping (Welding) - Work Observation At the time of this inspection, welding activity involvinc pressure boundary piping included weld repair (s) and modifications. The latter involved 14" isolation valve No. 2ND1 which was being cut out and respositioned (turned 90 ).

In addition certain pipe T(s) in the safety injection system were being cut out and repositicned. Welds invovled in this me>dification were as follows:

WELD #

150 SIZE ND2F-1 2ND1 14" schedule 140 NC2FW22-17 2NC22 14" schedule 140

,

For these cuts, the inspector observed the cutting operation and reviewed related QC records / forms used to document the cutting, weld preparation, cleanliness and fabrication. The repair activity involved the BIT nozzle on the cold leg of the reactor coolant (NC) loop C(3-5). At the time of this inspection the joint had been cut, weld built-up and was undergoing grinding to remove a surface defect from the build-up weld metal prior to weld prepping.

The inspector reviewed nonconformance item report (NCI) 13646 Westinghouse (W) repair procedure FDR-DBPM which had been approved by DPC on September 8,1981, liquid penetrant inspection reports, welder qualification records and the applicable field weld data sh:et (L-231 Rev. 7).

Filier metal quality records, as well as weld cards (M-4A) and detail procedure control sheet (F-9B) were reviewed for completeness and accuracy.

Within the areas inspected no violations or deviations were identified.

Reactor Vessel Internals - Observation of Work Activities At the time of this inspection the reactor vessel internals were assembled and stored inside the refueling canal area elevation 736', which has been designated storage level zone IV.

Zone IV prohibits food, drink, etc.

Inspection and storage requirements are etablished by DPC's-Storage Inspection Procedure P-3 Rev. 12. The inspector observed stcrage condition and reviewed storage inspection records.

Within the areas inspected no violation or deviations were identified.

11.

Reactor Vessel Internals - Review of Quality Records Reactor vessel internals quality records selected at random and other-

'

records including receipt inspection and storage records were reviewed to ascertain conformance with established procedures and to determine whether work accomplishment was consistent with applicable procedural requirements.

Applicable procedures irmlude P-1, " Receipt Inspection" and P-3, " Storage".

Receipt inspection was documented on form P-1A.

Quality records revicwed included (W) quv11ty releases SQR-21631, 21033 and 21621.

Within the areas inspected no violation or deviations were identified.

12.

Safety Related Components I-Review of Quality Records Quality related work and inspection (QC) records of selected components within and outside the pressure boundary were reviewed to ascertain whether these records were in conformance with established procedures and reflected work accomplishment consistent with applicable NRC and code requirements.
