e-7I-T. E. Conlon, Chief Da e Engineering Support Section No. 2 Reactor Construct:on and Eugineering Support Branch Inspection Summary Inspection on June 13-16, 1978 (Repor Nos. 50-416/78-9 and 50-417/78-9)

A_reas Inspected:

Routine unannounced inspection of safety-related structures, observation of work and review of quality records including welding records; safety-related piping, observation of welding and other work activities; reactor coolant pressure boundary piping, observation of

,

welding and other work activities.

The inspection involved 24 inspector-hours on site by one NRC inspector. There were no Part 21 or 50.55(e) items included in the inspection.

Results:

Of the three areas inspected, no apparent items of noncompliance or deviations were identified in two areas, one item of noncompliance (Infraction - failure to follow procedure for storage of sa fety-relat ed piping) was identified in one area.

Unresolved Items No unresolved items were identified during this inspection.

4.

Independent Inspection Effort a.

The inspector conducted a walk-through inspection of the containment areas and auxiliary building to observe <.onstruction progress and construction activities such as welding, material handling, housekeeping and storage.

b.

On June 13, 1978, during inspection of piping storage in the Unit 1 containment, the inspector observed sixteen large carbon steel

'

pipe spools in the suppression pool area not placed on pallets or

,

shoring and in contact with standing water on the floor. Spool j

numbers recorded were Q1B21-G022-1-11, Q1B21-G022-23-11, Q1B21-G022-24-11, Q1B21-G022-25-11, Q1B21-G024-29-11, Q1B21-G024-34-1, Q1B21-G032-11, and Q1B21-G032-12-11.

Other spool numbers were not visible at the time of the inspection.

On June 14, 1978, during inspection of piping storage in the

.

auxiliary building, the innpect or obr,crved a Unit I stainless steel pipe spool number Q:G41-G012-5-9 stored with carbon steel cable, angle iron and miscellaneous material on and around the pipe.

On June 14, 1978, during inspection of piping storage in the Unit I containment, the inspector observed five stainless steel pipe spools not placed on pallets or shoring and in contact with standing water on t he floor. A spool number recorded was Q1G41-G016-4511. The other spool numbers sere not visible at the time of the inspection.

Bechtel k'ork Plan Procedure 14, Revision 13, Change Request 151, paragraph 6 requires that piping "shall be stored on pallets or shoring to permit air circulation and prevent direct contact with the ground." Appendix P of this procedure also requires that

" Stainless ste:1 pipe and piping components shall be stored in an area where iron, carbon steel or materials containing leachable chlorides will not ccme into direct contact with their surfaces."

The three cxamples described above represent noncompliance with Criterion V of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, as implemented by the PSAR, pa ragraph 17.1.5.

This noncompliance will be categorized as an infraction and is identified as Noncompliance Item No. 416/78-09-01.

No items of noncompliance or deviations, except as indicated in paragraph 4.b., were identified.

Safety-Related Structures - Review of Quality Records (Unit 1)

The inspector reviewed quality records for the Fuel Pool Cooling Drain Tank, No. G41-A001, and the Standby Liquid Control Tank No. C41-A001, to determine if Code, NRC and SAR requirements were being met.

The applicable Code f or these tanks is the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section Ill, 1974 Edition plus addenda through the summer of 1974. These tanks and associated supports were manufactured offsite.

Records in the following areas, as applicable, were reviewed; material certification records, vendor manufacturing and inspection records, receiving inspection reports, nonconformance reports, installation records (not yet completed), testing requirements, inspection personnel qualification records, deviations and Code data reports.

No itemt of ncncompliance or deviations were identified.

t 6.

Safety-Related Structures (Welding) - Review of Quality _ Records _(Unit 1)

The inspector reviewed welding quality records for the two tanks delineated in paragraph 5 to determine if Code, NRC and SAR require-ments were being met. Records were reviewed in the following areas, as applicable: welding inspection and NDE records, weld history records, i

welding material certifications, welder qualification records, and welding inspector qualificat#on records.

7.

Safety-Related Structures - Observation of Work and Work Activities (Unit 1)

The inspector observed the partially installed tank, delineated in paragraph 5, to determine if Code, NRC and SAR requirements were being met. Both tanks were set in place but piping had not yet been attached and grouting had not been accomplished. Since all safety-related tanks are manufactured of f site, work activities were primarily verified utilizing the record review delineated in paragraphs 5 and 6.

No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.

8.

Safety-Related Piping _(Weldin_g) - Observation of Work and Work Activities (Unit 1)

The applicable Code for safety related piping is the AS!1E Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, 1974 Edition plus addenda through the sunmer of 1974. The inspector observed three Class 2 welds to determine if Code, NRC and SAR requirements were being met.

The following welds were observed:

The inspector reviewed these welds for weld location, use of specified weld procedure, welder qualification, preheat and interpass temperature i

requirements, use of specified weld material, and physical appearance of the

'

weld.

The inspector observed the welding material issuing station for j

storage of materials, issue records, and handling of return materials. The inspector also reviewed the welding areas for control of unused filler material.

p_afety-Related Piping _- Chservation of Work and Work Activities (Unit 1)

The applicable Code is delineated in paragraph 8.

The inspector observed handling of 18" RHR piping spool number Q1E12-G013-3-7 to determine if Code, NRC and SAR requirements were being met.

The inspector reviewed work for conformance to work performance procedures, conformance to construction specifications, and use of materials as specified.

No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.

Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary Piping (Welding) -

Observation of Work and Work Activities (Unit il The applicable Code for reactor coolant pressure boundary piping is the ASME Boiler and Pressure Code, 1974 Ed tion plus addenda through the summer of 1974.

,

specified weld material, use of specified purge, final surface condition, and pe r f o rroo nc e or pr olier inspections and NDE.

The inspector observed the weld material issue station for storage of materials, issue records, and handling of returned materials.

The inspector also observed welding areas for control of unused filler material and the presence of a sufficient number of adequately qualified QA and QC personnel.

No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.

11.

Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary Piping - Observation of Work and Work Activities (Unit 1)

The applicable Code is delineated in paragraph 10.

The inspector observed activities for two 24" stainless steel pipe spools to determine if Code, NRC and SAR requirements were being met.

The inspector observed handling of spool number G-008-A-1 and installation of spool number G001-Pc. Mark 767E-977G069. Areas inspected included conformance of work performance procedures, conformance to construction specifications, and use of materials as specified.
