Licensee Action on Previousl Identified Follow-u Item (50-528/84-56-05): Verification of Welders'glification-Unit
The licensee established a program for verification of welder qualifications that provided a 100 percent review of ASME weld records and associated welder certification documentation.
This program was reviewed and reported in NRC Report No. 50-528/84-56.
Since the welder verification program was limited to ASME welds, the licensee committed to include AWS certified welders in a similar program to be completed by January 15, 1985.
The inspector reviewed the results of this effort which is documented in Quality Investigation Report QI-85-0088.
The work was performed in accordance with SCIP 619.0 and completed on January 8,
1985.
The inspector reviewed the description of the various nonconformances and was satisfied with the technical justification that resulted in dispositions of use-as-is; no weld rework was required.
