Licensee Action on Previous.Ins

ection Findin s

(Closed)

Unresolved

Item (79-02-04):

Discrepancies

between

QA Standards,

Directives

and Report

Forms.

The licensee

had revised Quality Assurance

Directive QAD-9. 3 and the equality Assurance

Inspection

Report to eliminate

any discrepancy~.

The

QAD and inspection report

now .reflect the

same inspec-

tion attributes.

(Closed)

Unresolved

Item (80-05-01):

Temperature

measurement

of uncom-

pleted

cadweld sleeve.

An

ESDCR

has

been submitted with corrective action

on temperature

measurement

of cadweld sleeves

which have not been

completed

during the normal

work day.

It has

been

determined that the requirement

to measure

the temperature

be eliminated.

Specification

S203C

has

been

revised to state that the cadweld will be preheated

as if it were

a

new

shot

and that no temperature

measurement

is required.

(Closed)

Unresolved

Item (80-07-01):

guality Control inspection reports

affected

by E&DCRs should

be reviewed

and annotated

to identify applicable

changes

in inspection criteria.

The inspector

was informed that the com-

mitment to note applicable

E&DCRs in the remarks

column of the inspection

report was rescinded.

Also there would be

no effort to note applicable

E&DCRs on post inspection reports.

After discussion with the licensee,

the inspector determined that

no useful

purpose

would be served .by post-

ing of E&DCRs to previous inspection reports.

The applicable

E&DCRs are

identified on the Record of Drawing Changes.

In addition, the

E&DCR and

the Record of Drawing Changes

is

a document which will be in the permanent

plant file.

This specific unresolved

item is closed.

(Open}

Licensee Identified Item (80-00-01):

Deficiencies in Component

Seismic Environmental gualifications in GE Supplied

Equipment.

The

.licensee

had reported in accordance

with 10 CFR 50.55(e) that during an

audit of the

NSSS vendor,

no evidence

was found that three electrical

instruments

were adequately qualified.

A search of records following

the audit located

the qualification records

in another file.

The vendors

gA Program is being modified to cross-reference

qualification records

and vendor-qualified documentation.

The documentation

shows that the

electrical

i.nstruments

are adequately qualified to satisfy their intended

design function.

(Open) Construction Deficiency Report (80-00-04):

8 Rebar welded to plate

embedded

in pedestal

per

ASME vice

AWS

D 12. 1.

The licensee

reported

the

following deviations

were identified with eight sections of No.

14 rebar

which were field welded to shear

bars

on reactor

pedestal

embedment

PB-37.

1.

The welding procedure

used

was

an

ASME Section III procedure

but was

not qualified to the code applicable for the work performed (i.e.,

AWS D12.1).

2.

The welder was qual ified to ASME Section

I X but not to the applicable

code (i.e.,

AWS D12.1).

3.

The welds were not tested

using sister splices

as required

by the

specification.

This particular cadwelding

was limited to these eight rebar welds

and

has

been evaluated

as follows:

1.

The welding procedure

used for the welding of'o.

14 rebar to plate

PB-37 is qualified to

ASME Section III and was

used with 300oF pre--

heat.

This procedure is adequate

for the work performed

and will

provide acceptable

results.

This has

been verified by,comparing,

the welding parameters

specified in the procedure

used with those

specified in a procedure qualified to

AWS D12. 1,-

2.

3.

The welding procedure

used is comparable

to an approved

AMS D12.1

procedure

and the

we 1 der

was qualified to the

same

pr ocedure.

A

review of the welder's

previous qualifications indicates that the

rebar

and plate that

he actually welded are of essentiallv

the

same

chemistry

as the materials

he was qualified to weld.

A visual inspection

was performed

and documented for these

rebar

welds indicating that surface

cracks or discontinuities

were not

,present.

4.

Initially, the design of embedement

PB-37 was

based

on

a pullout.

load of 405 Kips.

Subsequently,

the actual pullout load to be

resisted

by this plate for the worst loading condition has

been

determined

to be 336 Kips.

Eight No.

14 rebar welded to the plate

can provide

maximum pullout capacity of 704 kips.

Therefore,

the

welds in question will not be stressed

to full design load.

Design

calculations of the plate indicate that maximum pullout load on any

single

No.

14 rebar is 31.4 kips for the worst loading condition,

which is far less

than the allowable load of 88 kips.

In order to further assure

the adequacy of the welding procedure

used,

three sister

splices will be prepared

using the aforementioned

ASME

Section III procedure

and tested for tensile stress.

Action to prevent

recurrence

is being evaluated.

3.

~Fili

T

The inspector observed

work activities in progress,

completed

work and

plant status

in several

areas of the facility during the course of the

inspection.

Presence

of quality control inspectors,

quality control

records,

conformance with procedural

requirements

and equipment preserva-

tion was observed.

The inspector conferred with craft personnel,

supervi-

sion

and quality inspection

personnel

as

such personnel

were available in

the work areas.

Specifically, the inspector observed

the installation

and placement of

containment penetrations,

the cadwelding in progress

on the containment

and work on

a void found in the pedestal

concrete.

No items of noncompliance

were observed.

4.

Status of Construction

The primary containment floor'as

been poured.

The reactor vessel

is

being maintained with a nitrogen atmosphere.

Installation of the

mud

mat in the lake tunnels is continuing.

Concrete

and rebar work on the

primary containment,

reactor building, secondary

building and control

building is continuring.

The facility is ~304 complete.

The construc-

tion completion date is December

1985 with comm rcial operation starting

in November

1986.

5.

Review of Documentation

During the review of Unresolved

Item No. 80-07-01 the inspector

looked

at

30 drawings to ascertain

the status of any

E&DCRs posted against

the

drawings.

One drawing number

12177-EC-38A-6,

Primary Containment Hall-

Section,

Reactor Building had more than

5

E&DCRs posted

on the drawing.

This exceeded

the procedural limits for incorporation into the drawing

of no more than

5 N&D/E&DCRs with a time limit of 2 months

as required

by Project Procedures

16 and 24.

The inspector subsequently

undertook

a review of the records for concrete

pour

Record (for above drawings)

During the exami nation of the records for the

2 =oncrete

pours

the follow-

ing discrepancies

were found.

1)

Drawing 12177-EC-38C-7

Primary Containment

Wall Elevation-.Reinforcement,

Reactor

Building had

5

EDCRs over

2 months old posted

to the drawing

and not incorporated into the drawing as required

by Project Procedures

Nos.

16 and 24.

This is the current drawing being used in the

S&WEC

engineering office on site.

2)

EKDCR No.

C10379 dated

May 18,

1978 which is posted

on Drawing No.

12177-EC-38B-7 is still open.

The requirements

of this

E&DCR were

completed

on

May 30,

1980.

All work covered

by the drawing has

been

completed.

The Field Quality Control

(FQC) is responsible

by Quality

Control Instruction

QS6. 1 for closing and maintaining the status of

E&DCRs that require inspection

by FQC.

There

was

no record

on the

-:nspection report that te

E&DCR wa'tilized during inspec ion of

the concrete

pour.

3)

Drawing

No 12177-EC-38A-4

does not ref'lect the as-built condition

of the primary containment wall because

E&DCR CI0199 was not incor-

porated correctly into the drawing as

shown

on the

E&OCR.

The deficiencies in the records

and drawings

and lack of adherence

to

procedures

represent

a noncompliance

with 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion

V.

(80-11-01)

The inspector

was informed that the drawings with the discrepant

postings

of E&DCRs would be revised

on November

28,

1980.

Because of the deficiencies

and dis'crepancies

found in the small

sample

reviewed by the inspector the licensee

was inforoed that the inspector

lacked confidence that the

QA/QC program provides the correct documenta-

tion to reflect the as-built conditions of the facility.

The licensee

informed the inspector that an audit would be undertaken

.

during the week of November 7,

1980 by the licensee of S&MEC system for

controlling and implementirg

E&DCRs ard

N&Ds.

The inspector subsequently

informed the licensee

that the results of this

inspection provided evidence that

S&WEC is deficient in that the

QA/QC

program does not provide assurance

that adequate

review and followup is

made of inspection

and audit records.

6.

Exit Interview

The inspector met with licensee

representatives

(denoted

in paragraph

1) at

the conclusion of the inspection

on november 6, 1980.

The inspector

summarized

the scope

and findings of the inspection.
