Construction Status As of 10/27/78, 9,000 cubic yards of concrete had been placed in the Unit 3 containment base mat, and the excavation and working platform (mud mat) were complete for Unit 5 contain-ment. The licensee reported that Units 3 and 5 construction work was 6.6% and 0.3% complete, respectively.

~ Structural Concrete Placement a.
Review of Quality Assurance Implementing Procedures The following concrete related procedures were reviewed to ascertain compliance with ACI Standards.
No items of non-compliance or deviations were identified.

Observation of Work and Work Activities Concrete preplacement, placement and inspection activities were observed for Placement No. 4 of the Unit 3 foundation base mat to ascertain compliance with the above procedures.
During the concrete placement, instances of improper and unsystematic use of vibrators were observed. The QC inspec-tors corrected each situation in a timely manner, and the NRC inspectors concluded that the concrete consolidation activity was controlled in accordance with procedural re-quirements. No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.

Review of Quality Records The following records were reviewed for compliance with AS&G construction specifications and quality assurance instructions.
(1) Placement records for Lift Mos. 7 and 15.
(2) Qualification records of six concrete inspectors.
(3) Receipt Inspection records for resteel receiving and installation for Lift No. 001.
No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
,
3.
Concrete Testing a.
Observation of Work and Work Activities The sampling and testing of concrete was observed by the d
inspector and ccmpared with ASTM standards C31-69((1975),
Cl38-75, C143-74, C172-71, and C231-75. The tests observed included sampling, slump, air content, unit weight, and the making of cylinders for compression tests. All tests were conducted in accordance with the applicable ASM stand-
ards by personnel who appeared knowledgeable of the specific tests being performed.
In addition, the conditions in the curing room were checked several times during the inspection and no discrepancies were found. No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
b.
Review of Quality Records
'
T!? following quality-related records were reviewed for
-
compliance with the requirenents of the PTL quality control-instructions and ASRi standards.
'
(1) Qualification records for three Level I, three Level II and three Level III inspectors.
(2) Calibration recall cards for various test equipment.
(3) Master Inventory Log.
(4) Standar is Traceability File.
(5) Calibrauion stickers on various pieces of test equipment.

-4-(6) Concrete mixing water production records.
(7) Compression test report for Placement Nos. 7 and 15.
(8) Aggregate test report.
(9) Cement certification reports.
(10) Steve Analysis Reports.
One sieve analysis report dated May 30, 1978, listed the fineness modulus for fine aggregate as 3.62, where Specifi-cation 411, Paragraph 7.02e, states that the fineness modulus shall not be less than 2.3 and not more than 3.1.
The licensee indicated that this item would be investigated to determine if a nonconformance report should be written.
This item is considered unresolved (508/78-07/01).
The qualification records of all inspectors met the requirements of ANSI N45.2.6 (Qualifications of Inspection, Examination and Testing) Personnel for the Construction Phase of Nuclear Power Plants. The inspector again noted that the experience requirements of ANSI N45.2.6 for some Level I in-spectors were being waived based on a documented training and testing program. However, the personnel performing the tests
,
on fresh concrete conducted the tests in accordance with the ASTM standards noted in Paragraph 3.a.
No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
c.
General Laboratory Cleanliness The general cleanliness of the testing laboratory, storeroom, and test equipment was examined and the inspectors observed debris, dirt, and scrap material in the laboratory and storeroom.
In addition, three "Out of Calibration" tags were found on the store-room floor. These conditions were discussed with the licensee who agreed that the general cleanliness should be upgraded. This area will be reexamined during a subsequent inspection (508/78-07/02).
d.
Equipment Calibration The calibration of the standards used to calibrate field test equipment was examined to ascertain compliance with the Pitts-burg Testing Laboratory calibration precedure.
During the inspection, the standards examined '.iere found to be in calibra-tion. However, the inspector found that the calibration records contained inconsistencies, listed below, which require further revie.

.
-5-(1) Vernier Caliper 1073 was calibrated on April 13, 1978 as documented by a Pacific Testing Laboratory form. Pittsburg Testing Laboratory procedures require that the calibration be traceable to the National Bureau of Standards. The documentation submitted by Pacific Testing Laboratory only stated that the calibration was traceable, but did not state the standard as required by Pittsburg Testing Labora-tory. The data for this calibration was not transferred to fann CAL-3 as required. The calibration frequency as listed by Pacific Testing Laboratory was one year. Previous records showed that the item was calibrated at 6 month in-tervals, but Procedure CAL-3 requires a 2 year frecuency.
(2) The dates of calibration records, stickers, and requirements were inconsistent and difficult to follow. The review of the Master Inventory Log for Equipment Requiring Calibration disclosed that approximately eighty percent of the equipment listed was out of calibration, however, examination of the calibration recall cards for selected individual test equip-ment indicated that all items were in calibration. A com-parison of the dates on the recall cards and the stickers on approximately 8 sieves disclosed that the date calibrated agreed, but the date due for calibration differed. The sieves are required to be calibrated at one year intervals as shown on the recall cards, but the stickers on the above sieves showed an interval between calibration and date due for calibration as 18 months. Again, the dates on various records were inconsistent.
During the inspection, no items were found out of calibration.
The calibration program for standards and test equipment and associated records is considered to be an unresolved item (508/78-07/03).
4.
Containment Structural Steel and Weldina The NRC inspector examined Chicago Bridge ar.d Iron Company (CBI)
in-progress containment structural steel work to ascertain compliance with ASME,Section III,1974 Edition, Sunmer 1974 Addenda. Work was observed in progress in the onsite shop and included welding of con-tainment ring panel 7-AL-17 to 7-AR-12 and pre-heat and fit-up of containment ring panel 6-4-7 to 6-4-38.
Also, the method of moisture control for low hydrogen coated electrodes was examined to ascertain compliance with the CBI Nuclear QA Manual for ASME Section III Products.
In addition, welder qualification records of the four CBI welders onsite were reviewed. No deviations or items of noncom-pliance were identified.

'
1978, and summarized the scope and findings of the inspection.
i'
The inspectors discussed their concerns regarding PTL onsite lab-oratory cleanliness, record keeping, and equipment calibration,
,
and the licensee indicated that additional' attention would be
'
placed in this area.
