Containment (Structural Steel Welding) Observation of Work and Work Activities The pressurizer lower support for Unit I was being assembled and installed in accordance with Drawing No. CN-1070-4.
The inspector observed welding activities on the lower support including control of welding materials and documenting of welding and QC inspection activities.
There were no items of noncompliance or deviations in this area of inspection.
9.
Containment (Structural Steel Welding) Review of Quality Records The inspector reviewed the welding and inspection records for field welds PS-13 and PS-16 on the pressurizer lower support.
There were no items of noncompliance or deviations in this area of the inspection.
