b.

S&L Project Instruction, PI-LS-19, " Record Review of Piping and Supports Done by Analysis," Rev. 3, dated January 8, 1981.

Subsequent to the review, the inspector stated that problems stated in RIII Report 50-373/80-12; 50-374/80-08 relative to the subject matter were considered resolved, and that the program to meet the IEB 79-14 requirements was considered adegr, ate.

4.

Control of ECNs The lack of control of ECNs was identified in RIII Report 50-373/80-04; 50-374/80-03.

Specific problems discussed included design specifications and drawings that did not list all the applicable ECNs, and that ECNs had not been incorporated into the design document in a timely manner. The inspector reviewed the follow;ng documents initiated as a result of the corrective actions taken by the licensee and S&L:

a.

S&L Status of Project Specifications, Period Ending March 20, 1981, issued on April 1, 1981.

b.

CECO Site Quality Procedure LSQP No. 6-1, " Instruction for Site Design Document Receipt, Distribution, and Control," Rev. 2, dated November 15, 1980.

c.

CECO QA Surveillance Report No.80-336, performed on June 17, 1980, including findings and followup actions, d.

Subsequent to the review, the inspector stated that the program provision appeared to be sufficient, and that the QA surveillances to ensure program implementation were considered adequate and effective. The inspector stated that he had no further question in this area.

Component Design Consideration The program, established to ensure that no safety related restraints and hangers will be installed until the design of the components and the effects on the attaching structure have been determined, was re-viewed by the inspector. The implementing work instructions and pro-cedures reviewed by the inspector included:

'

a.

S&L Instruction PI-LS-22, "S&L Divisional Interfaces to Complete the Design of 2-Inch and Smaller Seismic Process and Seismic Instrumentation Piping", Rev. 3, dated September 3, 1980.

MCCO Procedure PC-16, " Erection of Support Restraints and Final Installation Verification", Rev. 9, dated March, 1981.

The design / selection of small bore pipe support and restraints was done by MCCO. The procedure requires S&L review and approval prior to the drawing release for fabrication and installation. Measures reviewed by the inspector appeared to be adequate.

6.

WPS for Code Case 1644-9 Material In review of the WPS for CRD restraints made of ASTM A570, Grade C, material at RCI in April, 1980 (RIII Report 50-373/80-20; 50-374/80-13),

it was noted that the A570 material was accepted in ASME Code Case 1644 but was not listed as a P-1 material, and so the applicability of RCI WP-100 was questionable.

In review of the ASME Code Case N-71-9, approved by Council on January 7, 1980, which superseded Code Case 1644, Rev. 9, Table 3 listed A-570-75 Grade C as a S-1 material.

In conjunction with provisions prescribed in Code Case N-71-9 Paragraph 3.0 Classifications, and Paragraph 4.0 Welding Qualifications, it was determined that WPS qualified for the use of P-1 materials can be used for welding of S-1 materials without requalification. This matter is considered resolved.

In addition, the inspector reviewed the following revised RCI WPS for better clarification, and had no adverse comment.

a.

RCI-WP-100, " Mild Steel to Mild Steel for CRDHS Fabrication at Installation," Rev. 3, dated February 18, 1981.

b.

RCI-WP-200, " Stainless Steel to Mild Steel for CRDHS Fabrication and Installation," Rev. 4, dated February 18, 1981.

RCI-WP-300, " Stainless Steel to Stainless Steel for CRDHS Fabrica-c.

tion and Installation," Rev. 3, dated February 18, 1981.

d.

RCI-WP-600, " Weld Repair Procedure for CRDHS Fabrication and Installation," Rev. 2, dated February 18, 1981.

Exit Interview The inspector met with the licensee representatives (deooted under Persons Contacted) at the conclusion of the inspection on April 2, 1981. The in-spector sammarized the purpose and findings of the inspection. The licensee acknowledged the findings reported herein.
