Licensee Action on Previous Inspection Findings (Closed) Unresolved Itee 389/81-07-08, Welder Not Qualified to WPS Specified on Weld Traveler. This item was examined during the RII inspection docu-mented in report 50-389/82-19. During that inspection the inspector noted-that the responsibilities for verification of welder qualification were net clearly defined. The-licensee has issued revision 7 to procedure SQP-8 to clearly specify that the welding supervisor is responsible for verifying
,
welder qualification. This item is considered resolved.
(0 pen) Violation 389/82-13-05, Use of Incorrect Calibration Block For PSI UT of Weld RC-123-2.
Florida Power and Light Company's (FP&L) letter of response (L-82-232) dated May 28, 1982 has been reviewed and determined to i
be acceptable by Region II. However, when attempting to verify corrective
-
action on site, the inspector determined that the commitment to be in full
'
'
compliance by June 15, 1982, was not achieved.
The letter of response stated that weld RC-123-2 would be re-inspected and the records for all
.
primary coolant piping would be re revie.wed for such problems. At the time l
'
of the inspection weld RC-123-2 had not been re-inspectert.
The weld was i
re-inspected during the inspection and no recordable indications were found.
The other primary coolant weld records had been re-reviewed.
Problems
.
I similar to the one identified in the violation had been identified.
How-ever, all of these problems had not been corrected. The licensee agreed
'
to submit another response stating the reasons for not meeting the full compliance date and establishing a new date for full compliance. This item
remains open.

Unresolved Items Unresolved items are matters about which more information is required to
,
determine whether they are acceptable or may involve violations or devia-l tions. New unresolved items identified during this inspection are discussed
in paragraph 7.b.
5.
Independent Inspection Effort
'
The inspector conducted a general inspection of the reactor building to
observe construction activities such as welding, material control, house-
keeping and storage.
Within the areas inspected, no violations or deviations were identified.

Inspector Follow 9n Items a.
(Closed) Ir:spector Followup Item 389/82-19-02, Disposition. of UT i
Indications In Welds RC-112-1, RC-123-1 and RC-121-6. This item was
!
reviewed during the RII inspection covered by report 50-389/82-20. The
only concern af ter that inspection was the need to re-inspect the i
indications in weld RC-112-1 from the inside surface using a 70 angle beam tranducer. The 70 angle beam inspection from the inside surface
and additional 45 angle beam inspections from the outside surface have i

i been performed and documented by the licensee.
These -inspections verify the size and location of the indications to be compatable with that previously indicated using beam plot corrections. Although the inspector has no further questions on the indications covered by this Inspector Followup Item, the methods used to size their indications are
-
not necessarily applicable to future indications. Each case ~must stand
"
on its own merit.

b.
(0 pen) 10spector Followup Item 389/82-19-01, Issue of FP&L PSI Program l
and Plan Descriptions. The inspector evaluated the status of this ~
l item. The program and plan descriptions still have not been issued as
- .
FP&L documents. The licensee is considering the final format for the documents. Since it appears the final issue of these documents may not t
,
be until near the end of the PSI, the licensee agreed to evaluate the
'
need for a " tie together" document to cover the entire PSI program and
,
'
its " workings".

Reactor Vessel Internals (Welding) - Observation of Welding and Associated Activities J
-
r j
At the time of this inspection, all welding associated with reactor vessel
internals had been completed. Therefore, in lieu of observation of welding, i
the inspector reviewed the welding records described below to -determine r
whether reactor vessel internals welding was accomplished in accordance with i
applicable.mquiatory and code requirements. The applicable code for this
!
welding is the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,Section III, 1977
Edition including Addenda through summer 1977.
)
The inspector reviewed welding and associated records for the following a.
internals welds:

reports; a sample -f " Weld Material Requisition Reports", a sample of
,
" Receipt Inspection Reports", and " Welder Qualification Record" were
[
reviewed in the areas of:
,

Inspection of weld including required hold points (8) Preheat and interpass temperature control (9) Use of correct NDE b.
During review of the above records the inspector noted the following problems for weld FW 001 on system CSB-0002:
(1) The weld traveler did not have any welder stamp (identification)
recorded. In accordance with the licensee progam, in addition to identification of welders on the weld traveler, the welders of each weld are identified in the computer by inputting welder identification information from each " Weld Material Requisition Report". A review of a computer printout of this information for weld FW 001 revealed that four welders withdrew welding material for the weld. Therefore, the identification of the welder (s) is not lost when not entered on the weld traveler.
(2) During review of the computer printout of " Weld Material Requisi-tion Report" information above, the inspector noted that one of the weld material control numbers was for E 7018 electrodes. A review of the actual " Weld Material Requisition Record" revealed that although the correct material description (ER 308) for the weld was recorded, the control number was for E 7018 electrodes.
It appears that someone wrote down the wrong control number since all of the other information (remaining weld material descrip-tions, control numbers, WPS's etc.) for the welds were correct.
During the inspection, it could not be determined whether the above records problems were isolated conditions.
However, the licensee stated that a 100% review of all weld travelers has just started and is expected to take several months to complete. The review would identify problems such as noted by the inspector.
Therefore, until the full extent of this problem is determined, this matter is considered unre-sol ed and is identified as item number 389/82-27-01, Incorrect Weld v
Record For Weld FW 001 On System Number CSB-0002 (Internals).
Within the areas inspected, no violations or deviations were identified.

Preservice Inspection (PSI) - Review of Procedures The inspector reviewed the PSI procedures described below to determine whether the procedures were consistent with regulatory requirements.
The PSI is being performed in accordance with the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,Section XI, 1977 Edition with Addenda through S78 as modified by 10 CFR 50.55a.(g).

IE Bulletins (IEB's)
(Closed) 80-80-08, Examination of Containment Liner Penetration Welds. On September 23, 1980, Florida Power and Light Company (FP&L) submitted a fiaa?
response (L-80-323) to IEB 80-08.
During a signt inspectior (see repnrt 50-389/80-15) the RII inspector raised several questions regarding interpre-tation of information included in the response.
Subsequently, on December 1, 1980, FP&L submitted additional infermation (L-80-394).
In summary, the additional information provided a listing of all penetrations, sketches showing the welds in question, and summarized the NDE required.
In addition, the information indicated that no backing bars were used and radiographic (RT) inspection was required for all welds addressed by the Bulletin.
i In order to verify that the requirements of the Bulletin had been met, the inspector randomly picked the penetrations listed below for review:

Injection In order to verify that the vendor welds and field welds addressed by the
Bulletin were non-backing bar type welds and were RT inspected the inspector reviewed the following for the above penetrations:
a.
Field Weld " Weld Travelers" b.
RT film for field welds - reviewed for the presence of backing bar and general weld quality c.
Field drawings d.
Vendor drawings e.
Field WPSs f.
" Tube Turn Weld Control Record" for vendor welds During review of the RT film of Weld FW 3 on penetration 36, the inspector noted that the penetrameters had been placed on the weld or in the area of interest for view 23-35.
The ASME Cods,Section V, and the licensee's procedure allow placing the penetrameter on the weld where required by geometry or other conditions to obtain density relationship between pene-trameter and the area of interest. For the weld in question, placement of the penetrameter in the area of interest did not appear to be required to obtain proper density. This problem was found near the end of the inspec-tion and it cnuld not be readily determined whether placement of the pene-trameter on the weld was justified. Therefore, this matter was identified for followup during a future inspection as inspector followup item 389/82-27-02, RT Penetrameter Placement on Containment Pentration Welds.
Based on review of the licensee's response and review of the above records, IEB 80-08 is closed.
Within the areas inspected, no violations or deviations were identified.
