-/yUNITED STATESNUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSIONOFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATIONWASHINGTON, D.C. 20555November 22, 1989NRC INFORMATION NOTICE NO. 89-56, SUPPLEMENT 1: QUESTIONABLE CERTIFICATIONOF MATERIAL SUPPLIED TO THEDEFENSE DEPARTMENT BY NUCLEARSUPPLIERS
Addressees
- All holders of operating licenses or construction permits for nuclear powerreactors.
Purpose
- This information notice supplement is intended.to alert addressees of additionalinformation concerning a problem with the certification of material furnished byMeredith Corporation, Pressure Vessel Nuclear (PYN), of Hillside, New Jersey,which was discussed previously in NRC Information Notice No. 89-56. It is ex-pected that recipients will review the information for applicability to theirfacilities and consider actions, as appropriate, to avoid similar problems.However, suggestions contained in this information notice do not constituteNRC requirements; therefore, no specific action or written response is required.
Description of Circumstances
- NRC Information Notice No. 89-56 discussed a 27-count indictment rendered onMay 4, 1989, by a Newark Federal Grand Jury charging PVN and Alloy & CarbonSteel Company Incorporated (Alloy) corporate officers with substitutingcommercial-grade steel for military-grade steel and fraudulently documentingthe substitutions as meeting military specifications. The notice indicatedthat NRC was interested in obtaining information relevant to material suppliedto nuclear utilities or vendors by PYN or Alloy in which discrepancies havebeen found or discrepancies have been discovered as a result of independentverification testing of chemical and mechanical properties, and informationon recent procurements. The NRC is aware that a number of organizations arecontinuing to perform independent testing of PVN material. The followingdiscussion details the results of testing performed to date that has beenmade available to the NRC.Discussion:As of mid-September 1989, the NRC had received the results of tests conductedby a laboratory performing tests for the Virginia Power Company on PYN materialsupplied to the Surry nuclear power station. The results indicated that 17 of89.111058 IN 89-56, Supplement 1November 22, 1989 4 items tested did not meet specification. Heat No. PV00199 of ASTM A570-79Grade 40 steel sheet exhibited a tensile strength of 45,993 pounds per squareinch (psi) and a yield strength of 26,282 psi, which are lower than the 55,000psi tensile strength and 40,000 psi yield strength required by specification.Ten items of ASTM A36-81A steel exhibited tensile strengths that were as highas 86,109 psi which exceeded the specified range of 58,000 to 80,000 psi. Otherdeviations were found, including yield strength, manganese content, elongation,and hardness, which were all lower than material specifications. Virginia PowerCompany initiated corrective actions to review the location and application ofthe nonconforming material to assure that safety and operability concerns areaddressed.On September 20, 1989-, the NRC received the results of tests conducted by alaboratory performing tests for General Public Utilities Nuclear Corporation(GPUN) on PYN material supplied to the Oyster Creek nuclear power station.The results indicated that a 2 1/2-inch diameter round forged bar of ASMESA-350, LF2, normalized and tempered steel failed to meet the minimum speci-fied Charpy impact test requirement of 20 foot-pounds. ASME SA-350, LF2,imposes ASME SA-370, which specifies that not more than one specimen mayexhibit a value below the specified minimum average, and in no case shallan individual value be below either two thirds of the specified minimumaverage or 5 foot-pounds, whichever is greater. GPUN Charpy impact testingof three initial specimens resulted in values of 19, 13, and 32 foot-poundswhich failed to meet the ASME SA-370 requirement. Section 22.2.1 of ASMESA-370-regulres-d retest of-three-addftiona4---tpeecmens,- each of wh-ch-shailhave a value equal to or exceeding the specified minimum. GPUN Charpy impactretesting of three additional specimens resulted in values of 20, 11, and 14foot-pounds which did not meet the retest requirement of Section 22.2.1. PYNcertified Charpy impact values for three specimens of this material were 26,24, and 24 foot-pounds. GPUN initiated corrective actions by requiring thatan engineering evaluation be made of the location and application of the non-conforming material to address safety and operability concerns.The NRC also received the results of tests conducted by a laboratory performingtests for Anchor Darling Enterprises, Incorporated (AD), on PVN material to beused by AD for nuclear applications. Five of the 16 items tested exhibitedchemical analysis values that were different from the values listed on the PYNcertified material test report, and two of the five items exhibited chemicalproperties that did not meet the ASTM specification. Heat No. 412L1181 ofASTM A-588 Grade B steel plate exhibited a chromium content of 0.17 percent,a copper content of 0.06 percent, and a vanadium content of less than 0.01percent, which were lower than the ASTM specified values of 0.4 to 0.7 percent,0.2 to 0.4 percent, and 0.01 to 0.1 percent, respectively. Heat No. 402N5561of ASTM A-588 Grade B steel plate exhibited a chromium content of 0.17 percent,a copper content of 0.02 percent, and a vanadium content of less than 0.01percent, which were also lower than the ASTM specified values listed above.AD is notifying their customers of the nonconforming material and performingevaluations in accordance with 10 CFR Part 2 IN -56, Supplement 1November 22, 1989 A PYN letter dated July 17, 1989, to Dubose Steel Incorporated in Roseboro,North Carolina, advised of a potential defect in two p~eces of 1 3/4-Inchdiameter round bar of ASME SA-193 Grade B7 quenched, tempered, and stress-relieved steel (Heat 58783, Trace Heat Code HJK, Stress Charge #85-737)manufactured by the Copperweld Steel Company and supplied to Dubose Steelby PVN on November 18, 1981. Louisiana Power and Light Company (LP&L) found5/8 inch deep quench cracks on one end face of material from the same heatthat had been supplied to Dubose Steel. Dubose advised the NRC in a letterdated October 25, 1989, that Dubose records do not indicate who receivedthe PYN material. This information is provided to encourage addressees tolocate the missing material.
Addressees
may wish to consider the results of the recent testing performedfor Virginia Power, GPUN and AD in planning their activities to assess thecertification of materials supplied by PYN. The NRC remains particularlyinterested in receiving additional results from independent verificationtesting of material supplied by PYN.This information notice requires no specific action or written response.

Louisiana Power and Light Company (LP&L) found5/8 inch deep quench cracks on one end face of material from the same heatthat had been supplied to Dubose Steel. Dubose advised the NRC in a letterdated October 25, 1989, that Dubose records do not indicate who receivedthe PVN material. This information is provided to encourage addressees tolocate the missing material.
Addressees
may wish to consider the results of the recent testing performedfor Virginia Power, GPUN and AD in planning their activities to assess thecertification of materials supplied by PVN. The NRC remains particularlyinterested in receiving additional results from independent verificationtesting of material supplied by PYN.This information notice requires no specific action or written response.
