Units 1 and 2 of the Reactor Building areas inspected included the top floor, 832', 820', 807', 786' and 761' and 745' elevations.

The inspector observed work activity, const uction progress and general housekeeping.

No items of noncompliance were identified in the above areas.

2.

Observation and Record of Containment Prestressing, Activity, Unit 2 Tendons 70-F and 64-F stored on pallets in Unit 2 at the 786' el were visually inspected and were found to be properly protected with a canvas covering, polyethlene sheet and protective grease.

'

Horizontal tendon 47-E at buttress "F" was being pulled for the button heading. The inspection records reviewed indicated that work had been accomplished per work procedure outlined in Appendix 1 and the procedure was at the work site.

No items of noncompliance were identified.

3.

Reactor Internals

_ Unit 1 a.

The inspector observed work activity inside the reactor pressure vessel.

The core sparger which will require rework was visually observed. The top guide and bottom of the vessel were inspected.

The encore instrumentation guide tube welds had been penetrant tested; however, the-4-

.

penetrant and developer had not been removed. Reactor

-

Control Inc. personnel agreed to discontinue leaving the penetrant and developer on test pieces for extended periods of time although procedure PE-1, Rev. 5 is not explicit.

The procedure does impl-j timely removal af ter examination.

The inspector has no further questions regarding this matter.

b.

Unit 2 The inspector observed work activity inside the vessel.

CRD stub tubes were being aligned and were being welded. The tube was being welded per Procedure WP-5.

Welder No. 25 qualified August 11, 1978 was observed while welding using submerged arc welding, reverse polarity, 5/32 ENCRFE-3 per SFA 5.11, and operating parameters70-170 amp /16-24 volts.

The inspector observed that the method of monitoring welding amperage was to periodically check welding machine outputs.

Further, it was learned that RCI inspection does not record this monitoring of in-process-welding amperage.

RCI committed to record such surveillance in the future.

The inspector had no further questions regarding this matter.

No items of noncompliance were identified.

The RIII inspectors observed several locations in which

-

nonseismic pipes were installed over Class 1E cables and raceway (i.e., pipe #1MC22A-4" over trays 1337A-1YP, 1337B-1YP,1337B-lYP, and 1337D-1YP; an3 drain pipes

  1. AED-11-6/ABD-11-12 over trays 349A-1BP and 399B-lEC).

A letter dated October 12, 1978 from Sargent 6 Lundy's Project Manager for La Salle Units 1 and 2 to CECO indi-cates that a general criteria for review of the adequacy of nonsafety related piping systens located above safety

'related items is being developed.

Once the criteria is cocpleted, the La Salle County Station design will be reviewed for adequacy. This matter is unresolved and will be reviewed during a subsequent inspection.

(373/78-24-01; 374/78-15-01)

The RIII inspector observed the cable and cable tray storage c.

yards. The yards were being maintained in accordance with H. P. Foley Company procedure #QCP-4, Rev. 5.
