P eventative Maintenance Program-l The preventative maintenance program for the extended const'ruction delay-is described in WMC-051 entitled, " Preservation of Assets Preventative Maintenance Program," Revision 4, dated March 31, 1989. The' inspector-reviewed the changes made to this program.since the previously reviewed Revision 3.

The changes made to WMC-051 were reviewed in'the Region V offices'on May 8, 1989 to note the changes from the previous reviewed revisions. 'There were changes in the' program statement and-several of

,

the appendices.

This

appendix has had a major revision in'its format, which includes some

= rearranging.and.-res,tating'of the information contained in this

appendix.

This revision is more specific regarding the requirements of' the'. program. 'The requirements of the,old. revision appear to be included:in the new revision.

New. items included in the program are

'

.as follows:

The corrosion engineer will also issue. a report on the' walkdown.1 Any problems identified i

i

,by the corros on eng neemshall be corrected by the preservation engineer at the site.

The new revision shows locations of several test coupon racks different.than.thel previous revision, as noted in Table III of appendix B.

'

,

The changes made to this.. appendix were made, in part, to help resolve some NRC and licensee concerns in this area.

These concerns are further discussed;in paragraph 5.

The inspector did not

<

identify any changes made to this appendix that resulted in a program that was less conservative than that previously described.

Appendix C, "Hygrothermograph Plant Monitoring" l

,

This' appendix describes the licensee (s. efforts to monitorf' actual

~

temperature and humidity in-the plant.

The current' revision to appendix C is revision 2; dated August 17, 1988. The revisions.to the appendix included a'more, specific description of, recorder.-

locations.

The recorder locations appear to be the same"as previously described.

The_ previous rev_isions' observation section, which described the first year results on temperature and humidity, was deleted.

The licensee will do an assessment of the data obtained and will include it in the corrosion engineer's report

. issued per appendix B.

The informational humidity charts (from'the first year) were deleted.

The inspector did not have any items of concern with the changes made to this appendix.

E.

Appendix D " Electrical and Electronic Components" This appendix describes the licensee's efforts to minimize the effects of aging on electrical and electronic components.

The current revision of this appendix is revision 5, dated August 17, 1988.

The licensee's approach is to keep these components warm, dry and clean, consistent with ANSI level B storage. requirements. The licensee was also maintaining the calibration on selected instruments.

The changes made to the program seem to be mostly administrative in nature.

Several of the changes that were not administrative in nature'are noted below:

A change in the calibration program for instruments not needed for the preservation program, was noted in the review by the inspector.

The inspector noted that the appendix previously stated that for additional inspections of instrumentation, approximately 15 instruments per month shall be selected fer l

calibration.

This "shall" statement was changed to a "can" statem?nt.

.

i The air flow through conduits into enclosures is no longer required to be checked for air inle'akage, and was deleted from I

I the appendix.

Since the general. areas.now meet the requirements for storage, this is acceptable.

.One component (LC-HD-1551B).from the instrument sample list (attachment 1 to appendix D) appears to tiave been deleted from

the program due to a installation problem.

,

The inspector did not have any items of concern with the' changes made to this appendix.

The warehouses with safety-related equipment were also toured to assess the conditions of storage..There was no evidence of rodents found by the i nspector.' The warehouses were clean and the equipment observed was

Preventative Maintenance Records The licensee maintains a computerized Scheduled Maintenance System (SMS)

which lists if.ees which are scheduled to have maintenance performed on T;I them.

The SM[ llsts the dates that the items were last performed, the

frequency, and the due dates for the next scheduled maintenance.

The

inspector reviewed several randomly chosen safety-related items from'this M

list and examined their due dates. 'The records in the QA vault were

Corrosion Monitoring Program

'As noted in paragraph 2, the Structural Steel Corrosion Monitoring Program (CMP) is described in Appendix B of WMC-051. To monitor the corrosion rate, corrosion coupons (of similar composition) are placed on test racks located in the field and in the buildings, to provide information on material changes due to the environment.

The corrosion coupons are described in Appendix B, including the coupon's materials, size, and identification.

During the walkdown in containment, the inspector observed corrosion coupons in containment at various locations.

.The coupons did not show any significant degradation.

As noted in previous NRC inspection reports (50-508/88-01), the licensee's corrosion monitoring program has had problems with its implementation. This problem was also identified in -licensee QA surveillance reports.

The inspector asked for QA reports subsequent to the last NRC inspection and found that a July 18, 1988 audit by corporate licensing again found problems with the corrosion monitoring program.

These concerns included problems with the timely issuing of corrosion monitoring -reports, closure of open items identified during walkdowns related to corrosion concerns, and proper location of test racks.

.6; Vapor' Phase Inhibitors;

.

'On March;9;.?198'9, the licensee. submitted a 50.55(e) report to the NRC

'

'

documenting problems-they encountered:with the;use of Vapor Phase

,

Inhibitors (VPI) and stating that they would have a 90. day moratorium on

~

.

w

-

their use. The'use of Cortec 319 and Mobil:Vaprotec may have resulted.in f

conditions deleterious'to the plant equipment.. The'use of these VPIs

. seems to.have'resulted in the formation of.~tackyz surface coatings.

~

Vaprotec'apparently attacks.non-metallic components and some paint coatings (to form'a. dark, sticky sludge.

Vaprotec also apparently reacts

..

with water to' form a sticky sludge.

t At'the. time of the inspection, theIlicensee was still investigating the' -

cause'of.these degradations. The' licensee committed to send a report

.-

within 90. days.of/the'first report documenting their. findings.

As of the

- date.of the inspection *,~, the preliminary findings were that the VPI.

- concentration was too"high. iThe vendor' guidance, was to periodically

'

rsspike;theJoil with'Va'protec.

This:seems to have resulted in higher

. than expected concentrations: of Vaprotec?in:the oil, since the oil

.

.

systems did not~have the Vaprotecievaporating off.

This may be leading

't

'i

.to-the degrations observed. 2The licensee's actions in this area will be followed at a" future date; L

Exit' Meeting

"

.

i On' April 14,c1989, an exit meeting was held with the licensee

'

representative's identified in peragraph 1.

,The inspector informed the

' licensee that he,would perform ~in-office' reviews of various program

<

materials and document those' reviews in'the~ report.

The inspector also

summarized the. inspection scope and findings to that point.
