Timely handling and close-out were examined as well as adherence to the prescribed handling procedure.
It was determined that submitted requests were being distributed properly, were being reviewed, dispositioned, and approved on a timely basis and it appeared that the SNUPPS over view activity was functioning properly.
It was additionally learned that the Bechtel Interface Action Plan and the Daniel NCR log (Provided per Daniel procedure AP-VII-02 for Callaway), periodically issued, were being utilized as a tickler system for identifying open items and for expediting close-out of items.
During discussions with SNUPPS personnel it was learned that the OA records file would be transcribed onto a microfilm system that would be consistent with and elatable to the RiiS system.
The inspector also selected for review an item identified as an open item by SNUPPS at the time of the last IE inspection on August 17, 1976.
The item was a Union Electric Company (UEC) transmittal (ULS884 dated July 22, 1976) of a site A/E specification for Bechtel review.
It was learned that the item was completed and closed out on August 18, 1976.
No discrepancies were identified in the document control system.
5.
Develocment of the Records Manacement System
!
A large quantity of information has already been stored in the RMS computer. This information consists mainly of tracking information for Lead A/E design documentation and records associated with equipment procurement.
Information provided by RMS consists of such things as:
pertinent records generated, responsibility for
the records and filing location of the record hard copy.
The l
computer terminal has been installed and is in operation at the l
Callaway site. Tracking information for construction related documentation is being gathered via the Callaway terminal.

requirement for document storage and control.
Hard copies of all required quality related documentation will continue to be maintained.
The system is to be used primarily as a management tool which will provide a tracking system for exisiting documentation and cross reference capability in the area of design, procurement and commit-ments to licensing and applicable codes and standards.
6.
Inspection of the Project Model The inspectors reviewed progress of SNUPPS power block model which is under construction. The portion of the model relating to reinforcing steel for containment has been transferred to the Callaway site to be used as a design and construction aid.
It was noted by the inspector that one of the audits reviewed by the inspector durir.g this inspection (Details, pargraph 3) dealt with design control as it related to use of the model.
SNUPPS examined the Sechtel practices for using the model as a tool for verifying design adequacy in terms of interference, access and space.
No discrepancies were identified with regard to use or construction of the model.

Appendix A NOTICE OF VTOLATION Union Electric Company Docket No. 50-483
Based on the results of an NRC inspection on June 29-30 and July 1, 1977, it appears that certain of your activi:ies were in noncompliance with NRC requirements as noted below.
Both items are considered to be infractions.

ernational (Daniel) Procedure AP-VII-09 requit in paragraph 3.4 a preplanned =onitoring of stored items on a mini =um of once a month to preclude deterioration of sacerial during storage.
Contrary to the above, on June 30, 1977, the inspector observed deterioration (rustine) of stainless steel material, the fuel transfer tube sleeve, which had gone unde:ec:ed for a period of at least six sonths.
b.
Daniel procedure AP-IV-01 requires in paragraph 3.6 tha: a Material Control Record (MCR) be prepared by field engineering :o provide receipt inspection personnel with sufficient infor=ation to perform a receipt inspection.
Contrary to the above, an MCR prepared for the Fuel Transfer Tube Sleeve failed to provide sufficient ir..'2cmation for an adequate receipt inspeccion.
Further an adequa:e receipt inspection has not been performed on this material to date even though a revised MCR issued on iby 11, 1971, called for re-inspection of the fuel transfer tube sleeve.

(2) The Periodic Maintenance Requirements (PMR) were revised to include the inspection of 3 series cadweld sicevos on
-
prefabrica,ted assemblies at receiving inspection and peri-odically during storage.
(Reference Details Paragraph 9.b as above)-
(3) Work Procedure WP-118.was revised, Revision 3 dated' June 7, 1977 to limit the permanent marking in cadweld preparation f. r splicing to craw file only.

b.
(0 pen) Unresolved ite=s: Three items relating to placement
,
of safety related concrete.
(Reference NRC - Region III In-spection Report No. 50-433/77-03, Details Paragraphs 9.c, 9.d, and 9.e)
'i (1) The resolution of these items is dependent upon the issuance of a change to QCP 109 which is still in preparation. These items remain unresolved pending review of the revised QCP 109 by an NRC inspector.
(2)
Item 9.e_ identified a lack of definition in Specification C-103 regarding the degree of major imperfections in con-i crete after removal of forms where engineering review and evaluation is required prior to approval of the repair.
{
Also, WP-109 and QCP-109 did not require engineering evalu-
'
ation of =ajor imperfections in concrete after removal of forms.
The licensee intended.a revise only WP-109 and QCP-109 and leave C-103 as it is.
However, in light of the problems encountered with concrete defects in the containment tendon gallery discussed in Section V, paragr~aph 4 of this report, a revision to C-103 is also deemed necessary in order to provide comprehensive evaluation of aonconforming conditions.

Rev. 2 December 7, 1976 b.
Review was conducted of the Fuel Transfer Tube Sleeve and
,
appurtenances material presently stored onsite procured
under contract 10466.-C171-2/1713-2.
Material receiving Report (MRR) No. B00669 was assignad to the material and the inspector observed that QC accept tags were afixed to the material dated Januany 17, 1977. The MRR showed that nine pieces of material had been received marked 2-25 T1 and T2, and 2-25 M1 through M7 and documents as follows:
(2) Material test reports (3)
Inspection procedures and verification reports (4) RT exam verification report (5) RT film-(1 set)
(6) Joseph T. Ryersen release for shipment The specificatiens appeared to be in conflict with the material
received in that only six pieces were required. A check of the engineering drawings showed that neither six nor nine were the correct number of pieces. Drawings reviewod included 10466-C-0L2921, 2922, 2924, 2925, 2931 and Drawing C-OL6905. Vendor Drawings 72-28, -21, -25 disclosed that the nine delivered included both safety and nonsafety related material. A check of the field

SECTION II Prepared by K. R. Naidu 1.
Review of C3I 0A Implementing Procedures The inspector reviewed the Chicago Bridge & Iron (C3I) quality assurance implementing procedures to ascertain whether the quality assurance plans,. instructions and procedures established' by C3I conform to the NRC requirements and PSAR commitments relative to the c.,;tainment steel structures and supports. During the review, the inspector determined the following:
a.
Inspection Points Inspection points and work perfcrmance procedures are identi-fled in the Record Drawing Table. For ASME Code items, such as equipment hatch, inspection hold points are deter-mined with the concurrence of the Authorized Inspector, b.
QC Release Forms, which certify that the structural steel components are in conformance with purchase specifications, are used in lieu of material certifications.
c.
Receipt Inseection Precadure Procedure SHP-(74-3750/59), Revisica 3, datad June 21, 1976 titled " Shop Shipping / Packaging & Field Receiving / Storage /
Handlirg of Nuclear Fabd Material Parts and Assemblies" issued to control the receipt inspection and storage at site.
d.
Unresolved Item Though receipt inspections are to identify " evidence of damage to items fr:m tie down failure'and or rough handling" as required on page 3 of the above precedure, in paragraph 12, titicd " Receiving - Field Subsection b," no acceptance criteria was furnished. During a visit to the storage area, the inspector observed a liner place with a portion of the corner bent and subsequently verified that this item was not documented as a nonconformance. On further inquiry, the CSI site '4ciding and QA Supervisor stated that no guidance was available specifying the extent to which the-5-
.
.
.
plate could be bent prior to being reported as a noncon-formance. The inspector requested the licensee and CBI cognizant personnel to provide additional information on the acceptance criteria to evaluate " Evidence of damage to items from cie down failure and or rough handlidg."
'
This is considered an unresolved item and will'be reviewed dur.ing a subsequent inspection.

Observation of Containment Steel Structures Work and Work Activities a.
Storace of Cecconents The inspector observed the following in the storage area designa:ed for C3I components:
(1) The s:orage area was not identified and roped off as
!
required by C3I procedure SHP-(74-3750/59), Revision 3, dated January 21, 1976. A section of :he storage area was adjacant to a heavily travelled cons: rue:1on road.
(2) One seccion of a penetration sleeve assembly was not on dunnage.
(3)
Several pipe penetration sleeves contained pools of stagnant water.
(4) A liner plate was observed with one of its corners
bent about 20. A C3I corporate QA person who was on site during the inspection concurred with the RIII
,
inspector tha: the subject liner plate was conconforming.
Contrary :o CSI Nuclear QA Manual, Issue 6, Divisien 1 paragraph 4.4.2 titled " Material Identification" the liner plate was not identified as a nonconforming item.
- Also, contrary to paragraph 14.3.3 ti: led "Correc:ive Ac: ion" corrective action in the form of engineering
.
evaluation had not been initiated. The liner plate was being stored along with other acceptable liner plates.
In addition, one liner plate with a questionable kink was observed. Note: An unresolved item related to a handling procedure which could aid identification nonconformances of this nature in future is discussed in preceding paragraph 1.d of this sec: ion of :his report.

c.
Unresolved Item A system providing cross reference between the welds /
drawings and the inspection reports is to be developed to f acilitate orderly -retrieval of welding inspection reports. Such a system would reduce ti=e expended in
'
locating relevant inspection reports where in a parti-cular veld inspection was documented.
6.
Observation of Site Storace Areas Storage of Stainless Steel Material
-
During a tour of the storage area, the inspector observed several unpacked stainless steel components _ unprotected frem stagnant rain water. It could not be reacily identified from the material identification tags whether these were safety related material.
The licensee stated that he would investigate this matter further with the Daniel cognicant personnel vested with storage inspections.
This matter will be reviewed during subsequent inspections.
Struerural Steel Cecconents Without Identification Tacs The inspector observed several structural steel ccaponents in the vicinity where repairs to steel components were in progress, I
without identification tags. The licensee informed the inspector
'
that this discrepancy was already identified. The inspector-reviewed Quality Assurance Audit Finding (QAAF) #77-06-01-02
dated June 16, 1977 which identified " Twenty-five safety related structural picces in the outside laydown yard 1 that were not
released to construction and had no indication of inspection
!
status. Due to the large number of unidentified pieces dis--
!
covered, this presents a breakdown in the QC system." Corrective action recommended was to identify the-cause of the problem and correct. Corrective action taken ucs to hold the inspectors who remove the QC Hold Tag res'ponsibic for retagging. The
,
!
R1II inspector informed the licensee that implementation of this matter will be reviewed during a subsequent inspection.
No items of noncompliance or deficiencies were identified in the above area.

Review of Documentation Rosardinc Jeicosition of Circumferential Concreta Crack in Reactor Cavity Mont i
The inspector reviewed and evaluated documentation regarding disposition of NCR ;/2-0631-C-A, dated May 20, 1977, on a non-conformance described as a circumferential crack (up to 4 inch wide) occurring in the reacter cavity moat area, approximately 42 inches from cavity liner and extending through approximately 270 degrees arc.

significance of :he crack,) The inspector visited the subject j
arca on June 28, 1977 and observed that, in accordance with the conclusion of the investigation and after repairs required i
by the NCR had been completed and accepted by QC, work had pro-l grossed to thu extent tha: physical inspection of the repair
'
was not possible. The inspector therefore augmented his docu-
mentation review for ovaluation of the nonconformance disposition by intoryiews with responsible QC personnel.
The followint documents and correspondence were reviewed by the inspector:

Tendon Gallerv Roof Honeycombed Cencrete i
The inspec:or reviewed documentation and inspected the :endon gallery to evaluate the conditions repor:ed by licensee in accordance with 10 CFR 50.55e on June 17, 1977. Specif' cation j
C103 See:1on 15, Repair of Concre:e, states that, damagej of
'
honeycombed concrete shall be removed :o sound concrete by chipping prior to application of concrete repair by drypack filling or con-crete replacement in accordance with conditions encountered. On i
removal of the tendon gallery root forms following placement of
'
the base =at, concreto imperfectiens were encountered and dry-
)
pack repairs were undertaken at approximately twenty-five loca-tions in the :endon gallery until May 31, 1977. Honeycombed
areas found dcoper than six inches and in close proximi:y :o at.d in back of the tendon :rumplates were encountered. An additional repair procedure was needed for these more ex:ensive areas of
honeycomb. The contractor :horefore initiated an NCR on May 11, 1977 requesting disposition by Bechtal for the above repairs.
j On June 27, 1977, after all honeycombed areas were chipped to

sound concretc, a map of each area was sent to Bechtel. The inspector reviewed the dimensional sketches for each of the ninctcen areas where chipping had occurred behind bearing plates and behind rebar. The inspector visited the tendon gallery and verifled the locations and observed that sound concrete (evidenced by well bonded broken coarse aggregatc),
surrounded the cavity in each area. The inspector also observed that only minor rebar damage (indentations of about 1/16" by pointed chipping tool hcid in one band) resulted from the chipping operation. The inspector observed that the non-confotping areas occur in a 90" are northerly and.100 arc southtriy and vary in si:e and dcpth, tne worst of which appears to be at azimuth 210 to 213.
It covers an irregular area affecting two tendon bearing plates and exposes four layers of hori: ental rebar at the bottom of the base mat to a maximu=
depth of 17".
The NCR states the cause of the nonconformance to be insufficient vibration of the toe of the first concreto lift by tencrete placing crews in the congested areas over the tendon gallery. The NCR adds that the mobility of crews was hamoered by the trumplace wall dowels, the =ain steel, rebar supports and form ties. The NCR's recommended disposition and basis for recccmendation requested from 3echtel was not avail-able at this inspectien. The inspector will review the recom-
'
mended disposition which is expected to accompany the licensce's thirty-day followup report required by 10 C7R 50.55(e).

Base Mat ?our 2ecords - Lack of Concrete Placine Reecres Quality Control Procedure, QC?-109, Revision 6, Concrete ? lace-ment, Croutin; and Post Pour, states in Section 3.4 that, a civil QC inspector shall be present at all times during concrete placement and grouting operations and Section 4.5 identifies thirteen significant attributes on details of concrete disposi-tion, flow, placement, consolidation and use of vibrators which the QC inspector must verify. This procedure adds that after placing and finishing is completed in a pour, the civil CC inspector that monitored and verified these activities shall complete a Concrete Placing Report. The bass est placement took 62 hours7.175926e-4 days <br />0.0172 hours <br />1.025132e-4 weeks <br />2.3591e-5 months <br /> during which appro::imately thirteen QC inspectors, citernating on twelve hour shifts, monitored the basa mat place-ment. However, the documentary records en the base mat produced for the NRC inspector to review contain only one Concrete Placing Report. This report is signed by the inspector present at the termination of the pour. The report conrains no information regarding verification of work performed on shif ts when this one inspector was not present.

Quality Control Concrete Placine Renort Lacks Acceptance Criteria Quality Control Procedure QCP-109 identifies thirccen significant at:ributes for the control of concrete disposition, flow, place-ment, consolidation and use of vibrators for verification by the civil QC inspector. The procedure states that af ter concrete placing and finishing (as applicable) is completed in a pour, the civil QC inspector that monitored and verified these activi-ties shall complete a Concrete Placing Report, (CPR). However, the CPR and its instrue:1ons for completing the CPR (Exhibi: C of QCP-109) lists only one of the thir:cen significant at:ributes required by the procedure.
(The CPR con ains twenty-eight other items of a summary nature for a pour.) The civil QC inspec:or is required to sign this report. Although :he procedure states that the QC inspec:or signature on the CPR is docu=en:ation that all of the applicable inspec:1ons per QCP-109, See: ion 4.5 were verified, :he CPPR and its instrue: ions do not list nor otherwise identify the QC inspec:or his responsibility to provide quantitative or quali:stive acceptance criteria for de:er=ining that impor: ant ac:1vities have been satisfactorily accomplished.
This failure to identify acceptance criteria is not is accordance

Work Procedura Lacks Instructions on Consolidation Work procedure WP-109, 2evision 5, Concre:e Placemen:, Grou:ing, and Pos: Pour, states in the scope that the purpose of the procedure is to define and establish methods, standards and docu-ments: ion to insure tha: the placing, finishing, curing, protection, repair and grouting of safety related permanent plant concrete is performed in accordance with plans and specifica:1ons. WP-109 references C-10 (:echnical specifications for forming, placing, finishing, and curing of concrete), also references QCP-109. The fotmer in Sec:Lon 10.0 (Consolidation of Concrete) establishes detailed requirements for concrete consolidation by mechanical
.
(in:ernal type) vibrators and requires frequency of vibrators to conform to ACI 309 recommended practice. However, WP-109 provides no implementation of the specification requiraments on consolidation. Except for the fact that UP-109 charges the

This is not in accordance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix 3, Criteria V, which requires that activitics af fecting quality shall be prescribed by documented procedures, instruction, or drawings.

Technical Specification for forming, placing, finishing and curing of concrete, C-103,. Revision 7, establishes requirements in Section 15 for repair of concrete, and in Section 17 states that, inspection is required of any concre:e repair or patching of concrete imperfec:icns. QCP-109, Concrete Placement, Grouting, and post pour, provides two forms identified as Exhibi:s e and I which are applicabla to post pour inspection by QC of minor repairs.
However, major repairs which are the subject of an NCR should be identified in a special QC procedure in order :o identify verifying correction activi:1cs that implement significant required quali:y a ttribute s. The applicabili:y of using Forms H and I sad possibly L in QCP-109 requires additional instrue:1ons which should inter-f ace with AP-V11-02, Control of Nonconformances.
This is an unresolved 1:em.
