Section I Prepared by: J. E. Konklin Reviewed by: C. C. Williams, Chief Projects Section 2 Licensee Inspection of Installed Category I Structural Steel As part of the licensee's response to the NRC stop work order of August 15, 1979, PSI committed to the implementation of a construction verification program to verify the adequacy of installed equipment and structures.

During this inspection, the RIII inspector reviewed the licensee's actions, relative to the inspection of installed Category I structural steel. The inspector reviewed the applicable procedures and personnel qualifications, observed the performance of a structural steel survey team, and inspected specific structural steel areas which had previously been inspected by the survey teams. Results of the RIII inspection are discussed below.

1.

Review of Procedures and Records The inspector reviewed the following procedures and records related to the structural steel incpection activities:

Special Process Procedure drr-3, Revision 3, dated March 24, a.

1980, " Category I Structural Steel".

b.

Project Management Procedure PMP 3.01, Revision 0, dated March 3, 1980, " Qualification and Certification of QA Personnel".

Structural Steel Daily Inspection Reports for the period c.

April 3 through April 14, 1980.

No items of noncompliance were identified. Detailed comments on PMP 3.01 will be provided to the licensee as part of the Region III I

review of the Project Management Procedures.

2.

Review of Personnel Qualifications

The inspector reviewed the qualifications and training of the PSI, Newberg-Marble Hill, and U.S. Testing personnel assigned to two

'

structural steel survey teams. The areas reviewed included education, related work experience, visual examinations, and training in the requirements of the applicable structural steel inspection procedure.

With regard to the personnel training activites, the inspector reviewed the training course program, titled, " Lesson Plan for the Implementation of Procedure SPP-3, Category I Structural Steel",

-3-

.

Revision 0, dated March 25, 1980; the course training materials associated with the lesson plan; and the course attendance lists to verify that all of the survey team members had attended the training sessions.

No items of noncompliance were identified.

3.

Structural Steel Inspection Activities The RIII inspector discussed with the two survey team leaders the methods being used to inspect the structural steel, the system being used to keep track of the members and connections which have been inspected, and the results of the inspections to date. The inspector then observed one survey team as the team performed in-spections of structural steel at Elevation 463.5 of the auxiliary building. The inspector then performed an independent inspection of structural steel at Elevations 451 and 350 of the auxiliary building, in areas which had previously been inspected by the sur-vey teams.

In each case where the RIII inspector found a noncon-forming condition, the markings on the member or connection and the survey team inspection records identified the nonconformance.

No items of noncompliance were identified.

Section II Prepared by: Z. C. Cordero Reviewed by: D. H. Danielson, Chief Engineering Support Section 2 1.

Review of Special Process Procedures The inspector reviewed for comments two (2) procedures to verify that the licensee's commitment contained in the " Description of Licensee Activities Addressing Order Confirming Suspension of Construction" are properly incorporated.

a.

SPP-4; Revision 0, dated April 14, 1980 The procedure requires a physical inspection and verifica-tion of in place safety category I piping and hangers.

The piping welds and the hanger welds should be grouped sep-arately in choosing samples for the statistical tests. The individual responsible for selecting-the required number of weld samples should be identified on the procedure. The forms to be used should refer to the PSI QA Engineer / Inspector to conform to Section 4.1.

The procedure should be clarified to require a 95% reliabi!ity factor and a 95% confidence level statistical sampling as stated on the confirming order.

!

The above comments will be incorporated per licensee on Revision 1 of the procedure.

No item of noncompliance was noted.

b.

SPP-8; Revision 0, dated April 9, 1980 The procedure requires a physical inspection and verification of in place safety Category I buried and embedded pipings.

The procedure does not address a visual inspection of the internal surface of each accessible in place piping nor does the procedure specify the accept / reject criteria for the inspection of welds. The forms to be used should refer to the PSI QA Engineer / Inspector to conform to Section 4.1.

The weld inspection worksheet should have an accept / reject column for the welding inspectors' result of inspection.

The above comments will be incorporated per licensee on Revision 1 of the procedure.

Fo item of noncompliance was noted.
