Perry Village Officials S. Sitz, Perry Village Fire Chief The inspector also contacted and interviewed other licensee and contractor personnel during this inspection period.

  • Denotes those attending one or more of the exit meetings.

2.

Plant Tours During normal working hours and during off-shifts, the inspector made several walkdowns of the plant to observe general housekeeping and work progress.

No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.

3.

Observation of Cable Pulling Activities The inspector observed, on two different occasions, the cable pulling activities of L. K. Comstock following the lifting of the licensee generated and Region III confirmed Stop Work Order for safety-related cable pulling on January 6, 1982 (Inspection Reports 440/81 i,

441/81-19, 440/82-01, and 441/82-01). The first observation was on the initial segment of the pull of safety-related cable 1P45H2A from the fuel handling building to manhole No. 4.

Approximately half way through the pull, the cable jammed in a conduit bend then broke free

A backlashing against a raceway,resulting in an approximately nine inch rip in the cable outer jacketing. The inspector witnessed the termination of the pull, field generation of a Nonconformance Report for disposition of a damaged safety-related cable, and engineering resolution to remove the section of cable already pulled.

The inspector also observed the ductbank pull of safety-related cable IP45H2A from manhole No. 4 to manhole No. 3.

Proper prepull checks were made in accordance with L. K. Comstock Procedure 4.3.3,

" Cable Pulling Procedure." The inspector verified calibration of the dynamometer used for determining pull tension.

The pull swivel broke,which terminated the_ cable pull. The inspector observed that the exposed cable was returned to a heated enclosure prior to continuing the cable pull as required by L. K. Comstock f

Procedure 4.3.3, Paragraph 3.1.8.1.

No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.

4.

Followup on Act of Vandalism The inspector was informed by one of the L. K. Comstockr QA inspectors of a cut wire bundle found in the Emergency Shutdown Panel for Unit 1.

The inspector examined the panel containing the cut wire bundle and found it was readily accessible and in a location which would ensure discovery. No other damage to the panel was observed by the inspector.

This was apparently an act of vandalism designed to delay completion of work on that panel. The panel location would allow such an action to go unnoticed by personnel in the area. This has been documented and is being tracked on L. K. Comstock Nonconformance Report No. LKC 1052.

Resolution of the nonconformance report has not been determined by the licensee or panel supplier at the time of this report.

5.

Fire Suppression in Safety Related Areas The inspector received a phone call from the Perry Village Fire Chisf detailing some concerns resulting from a recent fire inspection made by him.

The inspector met with Chief Sitz who detailed several apparent items of noncompliance with the Ohio Building and Fire Codes, some of which affected fire suppression in the area of the control rooms and the Technical Support Center. The inspector arranged a meeting with the licensee Fire Protection Design personnel, Chief Sitz and himself to discuss these concerns. Another meeting has been scheduled to discuss fire suppression designs and requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix R and Ohio Building Codes for the safety-related areas of the plant.

This item remains open pending the results of the meeting (440/82-05-01; 441/82-05-01).

6.

Followup on Regional Request The inspector received notification from the resident inspector at WPPSS Units 3 and 5 that a former employee of Nesport News Industrial Corporation of Ohio at the Perry Site had been found to have a

,

falsified AWS welding certificate while at the WPPSS 3 and 5 site.

The resident inspector conducted an inquiry into the activities and responsibilities of the individual in question while at the Perry site. The individual was certified as a Level II inspector in Magnetic Particle Testing and Dye Penetrant Testing. An AWS welding certificate was not required for this work. The individual was certified to Newport News Industrial Corporation of Ohio procedures and his work was routinely checked with no reported deficiencies.

There has been no reason to further question his work while at Perry and the concern is considered closed.

7.

Management Meeting Licensee representatives Messrs. Davidson, Edelman, Farrell and Riley met with the resident and the Region III staff in the regional office on Wednesday, February 10, 1982, to discuss Quality Assurance problems identified by the investigation of allegations made to Region III con-cerning the QA activities of L. K. Comstock. The licensee datailed to

"

Region III how the Quality Assurance program functions and addressed specific concerns identified by Region III.

The licensee committed to verify proper implementation of the established Quality Assurance program and correct areas where the established program was not being effectively implemented.

8.

Exit Meeting The inspector met with licensee representatives denoted in Paragraph 1 on February 12 and 19, 1982, to discuss the scope of the inspection and its results.
