No permanent damages to the concrete structure and steel liner plates were observe Repair of Unsound Conc ete During the SIT, the NRC inspector performed a field walkdown-inspection to determine whether the licensee's commitments were fully implemented in accordance with the applicable = procedure. The inspector noted that unsound concrete was found in.two places on the containment structure. One was located at Elevation 565'-7" near grease can DS-22, the other was located at Elevation 566'-4" near grease can D6-2 The unsound concrete was subsequently examined by licensee representatives including representatives from S&L and Newberg Company. NCR No. 213-1955 was initiated and evaluated by Newberg Company as a result of.the examination. Corrective action to repair the above unsound concrete was completed in accordance with the procedure on November 3, 1987. . Furthermore, a team consisting of members from CECO, S&L, and Newberg performed a walkdown in the containment dome area to ensure that all concrete which required repair was complete. Two additional small areas.were identified for repair as a result of this walkdow Within the areas inspected, no violations or deviations were identifie .

Preoperational Test Results Evaluation The NRC inspector reviewed the relevant portions of the following preoperational test results pertaining to the safety-related piping systems to determine whether the results had adequately been reviewed and evaluated in accordance with licensee procedures and NRC requirements. The inspector noted that in general, licensee's evaluations with respect to the test results appeared to be acceptable in terms of identifying potential problems such as piping interferences and providing resolutions to these problem (1) Test Evaluation Against Acceptance Crierion Acceptance Criterion 4.1 requires that the piping and components shall not be constrained from expanding or

contracting. The licensee's verification regarding this criterion was performed by conducting visual examinations of piping and supports'at various temperature plateaus during heatup (up to 560 F) and cooldown (at ambient, less than 150 F).

If evidence of a problem was noted during-the testing, the problem was reported and evaluated by engineering personnel who also provided resolutions' to the area of concern (2) Test Evaluation Against Acceptance Criterion 4.2 and Acceptance Criterion 4.2 requires that, at operating temperature, snubber movements.should be within 25%

or inch, whichever is greater, of calculated value Test Evaluation Against Acceptance Criterion 4.3. requires-that during heatup and for systems whose_ maximum operating temperature. is not attained, actual ' values should be within 50% or h inch, whichever is greater, of calculated value (Calculated value is to be interpolated from hot and cold settings).

(3) Summary of Evaluation The following is a brief summary of.the piping subsystem evaluations generated by the licensee during the course of the test Piping su' bsystems examined: 110 Deficiency items written: 76 Potential Thermal Growth Interferences written: 459 Number of snubbers examined: 375 Evaluation of Potential Thermal Growth Interferences (PTGI) Associated with Structural Steel Installations During the review of EM-50 test results, the-NRC inspector noted

-

that some piping subsystems were installed very close to the structural steel members. As a result, potential contact may be possible between piping subsystems and the structural . steel members during a seismic event. The inspector identified 33 PTGIs which may impact the safety-related piping subsystems because of the above concerns. These 33 PTGIs were re-evaluated by S&L' to ensure that the as-built conditions can effectively function during a safe shutdown earthquake. 'The re-evaluation of the.33 PTGIs were documented by S&L 'on December 4, 1987. The'following is the list of the 33 PTGIs:

2CV03-11 2RY05-06 2SIO6-06-2CV22-03 2RY06-11 2SIO6-15 2CV53-03 2RY27-07 2SIO6-1 CV53-13' 2S002-05 2SIO9-02

Evaluation of Snubber Position Measurements The NRC inspec.'or reviewed the relevant portions of the walkdown data contained in the EM-50 test procedures. The inspector noted that snubber readings shown on the snubber position column were measured by the license from the surface of the snubber body (housing) to the shaft sleeve. Since the distance from the surface of the snubber body to the zero mark of the snubber shaft was not recorded, and since this distance varies with the size of snubbers, the measured snubber readings cannot simply be verified with the corresponding design drawings to ensure that the snubbers installed l are within the specified acceptance criteria. The inspector held l discussions with licensee representatives regarding the verification l of snubber readings versus the design drawings. It was determined I that the licensee was to evaluate snubber readings with uncorrected l measurements of less than 3/4 inch and of greater than 4 inches shown on the walkdown data sheets. Results of the evaluation revealed that three snubbers had actual settings outside the acceptance criteri Deficiency Reports No. EM-50-41 and No. EM-50-42 were generated by the licensee on December 3, 1987, resulting from the above evaluation.

l At the time of this inspection, the inspector could not determine the extent the snubber readings will impact the actual installatio Pending further review, this matter is identified as Unresolved Item (457/87030-01).

e. Evaluation of Vibration Test Against Acceptance Criteria The acceptance criteria for the pipe vibration test was structured into three levels of qualification: a visual inspection, a simple-beam analysis, and a finite element computer analysi Each method of qualification is more accurate than the other. The pipe vibration test was conducted under steady state vibration conditions. A piping section was considered acceptable if measured vibrations were within !

the established acceptance criteria. The calculated limit and !

measured level of vibration were compared to determine the j acceptance or rejection of the piping subsystems. In the cases '

where the piping was rejected or the measured vibrations exceeded the allowable, a detailed analysis was required to determine whether retesting / corrective action was needed to ensure system integrity.

I During the course of the vibration test, the licensee generated 14 l deficiency reports, EM-52-A through EM-52-N. All were evaluated and j were resolved by the responsible personnel. Furthermore, measured

I verification walkdowns, the NRC inspector observed that the above 11 supports with * showed either the tag was missing or was covered with insulation. Furthermore, the above two supports with ** had loose nuts in the connections. The two supports are Class D typ supports (nonsafety-related) and are not subjected to QC inspectio However, the inspector noted that some safety-related piping systems were installed adjacent to the non-safety piping. The fall down of the non-safety piping can impact the safety-related pipin Consequently, an assurance must be provided to protect the safety-related piping. The inspector held discussions with licensee representatives regarding the tag issue and the two improperly installed Class D supports. The licensee agreed to initiate a sample program by selecting those Class D supports whose failure may impact safety-related piping systems. Results of the sample program revealed that only one of the 50 supports inspected had loose nut S&L's evaluation concluded that the support with loose nuts can still perform its intended function. The sample program was documented in licensee's letter SFE/BWD#2186, dated December 2, 1987. With regard to the tag issue, the licensee considers that identification tag for supports is.no longer required once a support was installed and inspected. However, the licensee stated tha supports which are required for inservice inspection will be provided with identification tag c. Review of Stress Report for Safety-Related Piping Subsystems The NRC inspector selected the following safety-related piping stress report packages for a verification review to determine whether the packages contain all necessary information in terms of satisfying the intent of the Bulletin requirement Piping Stress Report P1 ping System PCS05 Containment Spray 2MS08 Main Steam 2RY27 Reactor Coolant 2SI21 Safety Injection The NRC inspector reviewed the relevant portions of the above stress packages to determine whether the analysis and calculations contained in the packages were performed in accordance with the applicable procedures / instructions, NRC requirements and licensee commitments. The stress packages were prepared and documented by S&L to ensure that all field reconciliation calculations and all as-built analysis information was complete and included in these package Furthermore,.the relevant portions of the design criteria, design loads, seismic input, and analysis output were verified by the inspector for conformance to the analysis criteria, applicable codes / standards, NRC requirements and licensee commitments.
