and all of its requirements; (3) specific procedures for control of construction activities, e.g. solid, chemical and sanitary waste disposal, dredging, site dewatering, and area surface drainage;(4)
surveillance and reporting concerning active areas of construction; (5) maintenance of daily surveillance logs and submission of monthly reports generated therefrom to the site manager; (6) corrective actions with regard to environmental impact problems; (7) orientation and t'raining.
b.
ASP-9 Procedure No. 8.4.3 requires that concrete truck wash-out be conducted in an area of the site designated for future filland that additional batch plant liquid waste be disposed of via percolation/evaporation.
Noncompliance with the above procedure was the subject of the enforcement item referenced in paragraph 2.
Inspection of the concrete batch plant and surrounding area disclosed the following: (1) batch plant area was regraded to control and divert drainage into the designated mangrove area reserved for future fill; (2) concrete truck wash area was relocated to divert drainage to the designated zone;',(3)
batch plant liquid waste was diverted to the above cited zone for disposal via percolation and evaporation.
The inspector informed licensee representatives that the corrective actions observed appeared adequate.

Licensee Actions on Previous Ins ection Findin s en) Unresolved Item 77-07-03 Surface Rust on Stainless Steel Pi e In Stora e
The inspector examined the storage condition of the type 304 stainless steel containment spray piping previously discussed in RII Rpt. No. 50-389/77-7 and the licensee's actions to close the item to date.
This deficiency (No.
1048R)
was upgraded to a Non-conformance Report No.
431R whose disposition approved by site, design and power plant engineering recommends that'the subject spools be handled in accordance with the memo Petrick to Borchardt April ll, 1974.
The above memo recommends that the subject piping be stored as i.s, the piping capped at the ends.
Prior to spool installation, each piece is to be cleaned internally using a high pressure potable water jet flush.
The exterior is to be scrubbed with a stainless steel wool, washed with a tri-sodium phosphate solution, rinsed with potable water and dried.
No grinding of the
. exterior should be attempted.
This item will remain open pending RII's further examination of the matter.
3.
Unresolved Items No new unresolved items were identified during this inspection.
4.
Inde endent Ins ection Effort ualification of Ins ection Examination and Testi Personnel Section 10.2.3, "Inspection Personnel" of the FPL Topical Quality Assurance Report (TQAR) requires inspection personnel to be qualified, certified and be kept current in accordance with appropriate codes, standards and/or company training programs.
a.
FPL Personnel The licensee's QA Manual (QAH) Procedure No.
QP 2.9 describes the education, experience and requirements" for the qualifica-tion and certification of individuals who perform Quality Control inspection activities other than NDE.
This procedure follows the guidance provided in ANSI Standard N45.2.6-1973.
Appendix C to the TQAR specifies that where special training is not required to perform a function certain personnel may be trained only to the extent necessary to perform the assigned function.
Personnel who perform NDE functions are required to be certified in accordance with SNT-TC-lA and supplements.
Construction Quality Control Procedures Nos. QI 2.1, "Certifi-cation of Plant Construction QC Inspection Personnel, Rev. 3"
RII Rpt. No. 50-389/78-4 I-3 and QI 2.7,
"NDE Personnel Qualification and Certification Rev. 2" implement the above QAM requirements.
The RII inspector examined the licensee's commitments in the TQAR and QAM versus the implementing QIs and actual qualifications and certification records for 13 various disciplined inspector and NDE qualified personnel.
One Level II, Civil-Concrete Inspector was found lacking approximately 13 months QA experience as recommended.
Since education and experience requirements specified in ANSI N45.2.6 are not to be treated as absolute and the subject individual deficient in job experience had a
BS degree in Civil Engineering this position could be justified.
Except for the above mentioned example FPL inspector qualifications and certifications examined were found to meet or exceed ANSI N45.2.6 requirements.
While cross referencing the FPL commitments made in the QAM, QP 2.9, Rev.
0, with those in the implementing Construction QC Procedure QI No. 2.1, Rev.
3, the RII inspector found that Section 4.3 of the above QI authorized Level I inspectors to, perform reporting of inspection and test results; work functions not permitted by QP 2.9 nor ANSI N45.2.6.
The Superintendent of Construction QC discussed apparent reasons to support the FPL work function levels as permitted by the subject QI when one takes into consideration the overall FPL QA Program.
RII inspector observations of previous work and discussions with responsible QA/QC engineers revealed that on most occasions a
Level II or Level III inspector has either executed, supervised, or performed surveillance over Level I activities to date; therefore, this noncompliance can be considered a procedural disagreement of minor consequence.
For these reasons this finding is categorized at the severity level of deficiency in lieu of an infraction.
The licensee was informed that this matter would be identified as Deficiency Item No. 78-04-01,
"Level I, Procedural Discrepancy."
b.
CBI Personnel Section 2.2.4 of the TQAR permits FPL to delegate to other organizations, such as CBI, the work of establishing and executing any portion of the QA Program although FPL retains overall responsibility for the program.
CBI is errecting, welding and performing required NDE for Unit 2's steel con-tainment vessel.
CBI's NDE personnel are trained, qualified and certifie'd in accordance with CBI's QAM Division 4, Section 9.3 and their manual entitled "Nondestructive Examination
RII Rpt. No. 50-389/78<<4 I-4 Personnel Training, Qualification, and Certification" which conforms to the requirements of SNT-TC-1A and its supplements.
The certifications of two CBI NDE inspectors were examined and found satisfactory.
Within the above areas of CBI inspection no items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
5.
Review of Contractor A Pro ram a.
A Manual Review Bigge Power Constructors (BPC), is providing the services for the transporting, rigging, hoisting and setting of power plant structures, equipment, and components.
FPL is providing QA/QC contractor surveillance in accordance with approved contractor operating procedures.
The RII inspector reviewed the "Bigge Power Constructor QA Manual, Revision 6, dated April 1977 and
"Contractor Operating Procedures',"
COP-5-1, thru 5-6 to assure adequate plans and procedures had been established for the scope of work.
This review included site organization, provisions for, control of material and processes, control of conditions adverse to quality, document control, test control and control of test equipment, control of quality records and audits.
b.
Contractor Audits FPL's TQAR Section 2.2.4 xequires the QA Department to review and approve contractor QA Programs and to audit the implementa-tion of the contractor's program.
The RII inspector reviewed FPL audit No. QAC-17-18(A), "Bigge Power Services QA Manual,"
and reaudit No. QAC-17-18(B) which eventually resulted in no unsatisfactory findings and a
QA manual responsive to FPL's quality program.
The RII inspector also examined audit No.
QAC-77-74, "Quality Assurance Construction Audit of Load Testing of the Bigge Barge Facility" conducted January 5,
1978, resulting in a clear audit.
C ~
Contractor Facilities The RII inspector conducted discussions with Bigge site personnel and visually examined Bigge's lifting and trans-porting facilities. The recently delivered reactor vessel and reactor vessel head storage conditions were inspected.
Within the above areas of the contractors QA program no items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
RII Rpt. No. 50-389/78-4 I-5 6.
Containment (Steel Structures and Su orts The below listed drawings and records for the partial and completed work observed for containment plate sections designated by serial numbers 22 and 38 connected by vertical weld joint I in ring C; plate serial numbers 26 and 21 connected by vertical weld joint J in ring C; and penetration assembly 18-A which was in the fit-up phase to be welded to plate serial number 9 were examined by the RII inspector.
These records were examined to ascertain that applicable CBI QA manual requirements were followed in the areas of receipt inspection and storage, installation/errection, testing and NDE, inspection, qualifications of NDE and inspection personnel, and calibrations of test equipment.
Records Examined Form GO 681,
"Shop Release for Shipment Check List" Form GO 830, "Material Heat Number Sheet" Purchase Contract No. NY422501, "Steel Containment Vessel Supplement No. 6" (All ANSI N45. 2. 9 records shall be turned over to FP&L upon completion of the work)
CBI Drawing R5, Revision 3, "Final Vessel Bottom Head Plates" Form No. 73-7302,

Within the above a'reas of inspection no items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
7.
Construction Status St. Lucie Plant Unit 2 is estimated to be approximately 15X complete based on procurement expenditures and construction efforts expended.
CBI is currently hanging the fourth ring of a total of twelve to be fitted-up and welded prior to post heat treating tentatively scheduled to begin around September-October 1978.

RWN 50-389/77-6 ATTACHMENT Infraction:
"Unauthorized Concrete Repairs" Unauthorized concrete repairs were made to defective areas in the RCB shield wall (NCR No. 328C) without using the proper attached repair pro-cedures or materials prescribed.
~Res ense:
Administrative Site Procedure (ASP-16) delineates the method by which corrective actions are to be implemented, and specifically states that notification to FP&L:
QC shall be made prior to implementation of any recommended action by the responsible supervisor or the individual responsible for performing the corrective action.
Investigation revealed that finishers had made an unauthorized repair, did not contact QC for inspection of their rework and used repair procedures and materials other than those prescribed by NCR No.
328C.
Site Management, upon notification that unauthorized concrete repairs were made, committed to remove unauthorized concrete, chipping it to sound original concrete and repairing the affected areas in accordance with the approved procedure.
The contractor was instructed to inform FPL:
QC prior to any future corrective actions and also instructed not to make any additional repairs without using approved procedures.
All subsequent concrete repairs were made in accordance with approved procedures.
This occurrence was considered to be an isolated event and recurrence control is not warranted as the slipform operation is now complete.
Any new contractors will be clearly instructed in the requirements for authorization of repairs.
The areas noted in NCR 328 (Concrete Voids) were caused by the adherence of concrete to sides of the slipform.
In order to minimize the recurrence of these voids, the contractor instituted a program to clean the exposed portion of the forms for the remaining duration of the slipform operation.
