2.
Plant Tour The inspector toured various areas of both Units 3 and 5 to observe construction status, work activities in progress, the general state of cleanliness and housekeeping and the status and condition tags affixed to equipment and structures.
During one tour and on two other occasions during the week the inspector found that access to the plant, via the west access road, was apparently not being continually monitored by the licensees guard force.
This condition was reported to site manage-ment representatives who stated that this condition would be corrected.
No items of noncompliance or deviation were identified during the tours.

Licensee Action on Previous Inspection Findings (Closed) (509/79-08-02) Followup Item: Inconsistencies between CBI Procedures and the Contract Specification (no. 3240-213).
The licensee has completed an engineering review of those portions of the CBI procedures and the contract specification which deal with containment construction up through the post weld heat treatment phase.
The inconsistencies which were identified by the review were documented in two PSAR Deviation Requests (nos. 020 and 021) and two Field Change Requests (nos. FCR-AS-486 and FCR-AS-495).
The inspector examined each of the documented inconsistencies and the dispositions provided in the Deviation requests and the FCR's and found them adequate.
The dispositions did not result in any changes to CBI procedures.
The inspector has no further questions on this item at this tim. - _ -

Steel Structures and Supports

a.
Welding Material Control The inspector examined CBI's control of welding material at the on-site CBI shop and inside the Unit 5 containment vessel. The examination included a review of procedures applied to the pur-chase, receiving, storage, distribution and handling of welding materials (CBI QA fianual, Division 4, Section 8 Issue 8, and Supple-ment I; Special Instruction SI-2, Revision 0; and Supplements
-
to SIS 505 and 501); examination of welding filler material issue and retrieval records; identification of filler materials ready for issue; storage of filler materials; and issuance and field control of welding filler materials.
The above activities and procedures were examined for compliance to the requirements of the PSAR, pertinent sections of the ASi1E Code, Contract Specification no. 3240-213, and governing CBI documents, fio items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
b.
Welder Oualification The CBI system for welder qualification was examined. The exam-ination included a review of the procedures applied to qualify-ing welders and welding operators and for maintaining records of qualification status (CBI QA Manual, Division 4, Section 8, Issue 8)
and a review of qualification status records and the performance qualification test records for five welders (nos. WHR, CLH, WLO, CES, and FDB) involved in Unit 5 containment ve:,sel welding.
The procedures and records were examined for compliance to the requirements of the PSAR, the pertinent sections of the ASME Code, contract specification no. 3240-213, and the governing CBI docu-ments.
fio items of noncompliance or deviation were identified.
c.
Observations of Welding and Welding Activities Weld joint fitup, preheating, inprocess welding techniques, weld-ing equipment, and completed welds were examined for compliance to the requirements of the ASME Code, the PSAR, and specification and procedural requirements.

-3-The welding activities were observed for welds A13-5, A14-5, W1-5, W2-5, K1G-5 (85 ft - 136 ft mark,150 ft - 230 ft mark,14 ft -
20 ft mark) on the Unit 5 containment vessel.
During the observa-tions it was found that oil was being carried over from the air compressor which was supplying air to the preheat burners for welding on weld K1G-5 (85 ft - 136 ft markl. The welding operator had detected the oil on the surface and had initiated action to burn off the oil, followed by hand wiping of the area prior tn weld-ing. Approximately fifty feet of plate was welded in this manner before action was taken to replace the defective air compressor. The com-pleted weldment appeared visually satisfactory. The inspector questioned the practice of welding approximately fifty foot of plate having known the equipment was operating improperly.
Licensee representatives stated that the situation would be reviewed and appropriate action taken. The results of the actions taken and the final disposition of the K1G-5 (85 ft - 136 ft) weld will be examined in a subsequent inspection (509/80-03-01).
The other welding activities which were observed were satisfactory.
No items of noncompliance or deviation were identified.

Exit Interview
~
The inspector met with licensee and EBASCO management representatives on April 4, 1980. The activities covered during the inspection and the observations and fincings of the inspector were discussed. The licensee acknowledged the inspectors concerns as noted in paragraphs 3 and 5 indicating that the conditions would be reviewed and appropriate action would be taken.
