Licensee Action on Previous Inspection Findings (Closed) Infraction 553/554/79-07-02, Failure to control calibration on electrode ovens. TVA letter of response dated July 31, 1979 has been reviewed and determined to be acceptable by Region II.
The inspector held discussions with Phipps Bend Project Manager and examined the corrective actions as stated in the letter of response. The inspector concluded that TVA had determined the full exteat of the subject noncompliance, performed the necessary survey and followup actions to correct the present conditions and developed the necessary corrective actions to preclude recurrence of similar circumstances. The corrective actions identified in the letter of response have been implemented.
(Closed) Deficiency 553/554/79-07-03, Failure to include nonessential variables in GTA and GMA Welding Procedures. TVA letter of response dated July 31, 1979 has been reviewed and determined to be acceptable by Region II.
The inspector held discussions with Phipps Bend Project Manager and examined the corrective actions as stated in the letter of response.
The inspector concluded that TVA had determined the full extent of the subject noncompliance, performed the necessary survey and followup actions to correct the present conditions and developed the necessary corrective actions to preclude recurrence of similar circumstances.

Independent Inspection Effort The inspector conducted a general inspection of the reactor base mats, auxiliary building, fabrication shops, weld material issue stations, and radiographic laboratory to observe construction progress and construction activities such as welding, stud welding, concrete placement, material handling and control housekeeping and storage.
a.
The inspector observed activities at weld material issue stations ta determine adequacy of: weld material storage / segregation, oven temperatures, issue records and return of unused weld material. The inspector also observed work areas for uncontrolled weld material.
Within the areas inspected, no items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
6.
Review of QA Manual - Welding Activities The "0EDC Quality Assurance Program Requirements Manual for Design Procure-ment and Construction" (PRM) references requirements and committments. The
" Quality Assurance Program Manual" (QAP) and " Quality Assurance Program Procedures" ( QAPP) defines the QA program, defines requirements and requires that programs be established to control specified elements. The
" Construction Engineering Manual" (CEP) expends and implements the QAP's and QAPP's for construction site use.
