Pacific Gas and Electric FACILITY:

Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant

SUBJECT:

DIABLO CANYON UNIT 2 -

NRC PLANT TOUR ON APRIL 10, 1985 On April 10,

1985, NRC management and staff (see attachment) toured Diablo Canyon Unit 2 to observe and be briefed by PG&E on the overall plant construction status.

The tour began at 9:00 a.m.

and was conducted by PG&E staff and NRC Resident Inspectors.

It included the Unit 2 control room, containment and turbine buildings.

In the control room the staff was briefed on the operation of the safety para-meter display system (SPDS) and post-accident monitoring (PAN) panels.

It was noted that the containment hydrogen concentration is displayed and recorded on a

PAN panel.

PG&E identified modifications in the Unit 2 control room made as a result of the Unit 1 design verification effort (Unit 1 and 2 share a

common control room).

It included the same type of additional structural bracing as on the Unit 1 cabinets and the relocation of the display typewriter to account for the floor response spectrum with respect to the seismic qualification of the typewriter.

The staff briefly discussed with the shift senior control operator the procedures and status of the Unit 1 integrated leak rate test

( ILRT) which was in progress at the time.

Inside the containment, Cardinal fasteners*

were identified on pipe supports, rupture restraints and a steam generator snubber.

(Note:

bolts on the steam generator snubbers in Unit 1 and Unit 2 are of the same type; however, Cardinal bolts are used in Unit 1, not in Unit 2).

Structural modifications resultinp from the Unit 1 design verification effort were identified, such as plates to stiffen the frame of the polar crane, hold down devices and guides for the crane wheels, gusset plates at column/beam connections in the annulus steel structure, and columns that were added to stiffen the structure.

The method-ology and modifications to stiffen the Unit 1 annulus structure were also applied to Unit 2.

However, in Unit 2 more columns and fewer tangential beams

  • ar dna pro ucts are t e su Ject o

a current eva uatson regar sng documentation of gA records and potential need for replacement.

In addition, the Vendor Program Branch

( IE) is pursuing this matter.

were used in comoarison to Unit I because of space availability, simplicity, and effectiveness.

The staff alsn noted the ongoing installation of incore thermocouples and the thermocouple junction box which recently had been qualified.

In the turbine building the staff noted the stiffeninq of the crane rail support columns by means of plates welded to the columns.

These modifications had been made at the same time they were made for Unit 1.

PG&E identified the concrete slab in the vicinity of the elevator which is currently being reanalyzed by PG&E with respect to the transfer of shear forces as stated in SSER 29.

From the 140 foot elevation the staff also noted the pipe way structure at the containment building which supports the main steam and feedwater lines. This structure is being further analyzed as stated in SSER 29.

Throughout the plant tour, Appendix R fire protection modifications were identified which had been completed or were in the process of completion.

Following the plant tour, PG&E briefed the staff on the program and status of activities during the current Unit 1 outage.

They include the integrated leak rate test (in progress),

completion of installation of Regulatory Guide 1.97 equipment, and the cleaning or replacement of strainers in fluid systems.

The outage is expected to be completed by late April 1985, at which time Unit 1

will be ready for commercial operation.

The staff observed a shift crew in training at the simulator (operational since August 1984),

and witnessed the crew respond to an incident scenario, not identified prior to the drill. It started with a control rod drop followed by a total loss of offsite power and a stuck open PORV.

At the exit meeting the staff stated that, based on its observations, Unit 2 appears to be in a more advanced state of completion and readiness with respect to fuel load and ooeration than other facilities at the same time in their schedule.

The staff commented on the effective actions by the shift crew during the successful simulator drill.

The staffing for simultaneous Unit I and Unit 2 operation was discussed briefly.

PG&E stated that various activities had to be completed prior to fuel load, such as pipe hanger and Appendix R

modifications, and DCNs (design change notices) for electrical and mechanical components/systems.

PG&E stated that Unit 2 will be ready for fuel load during the week of April 22, 1985.

The staff requested PG&E to, be prepared to address all issues pertaining to the construction, operation and licensing of Diablo Canyon Unit 2 at a meeting on April 19, 1985, in Sethesda, Maryland.

1 The plant tour ended at approximately 4:00 p.m.
