Observations and Findings
Personnel certification records met ASME Code requirements for the selected
examinations completed in refueling outage D3R14. The examination records were
complete with the appropriate calibration records and required examination data. For
the selected examinations reviewed from the summary reports, the inspector identified
no deviations from ASME Code requirements, e~pt as discussed below.
The inspector identified that the radiographic film of the examination of Unit 3 high
pressure coolant injection turbine drain pot return line extension pipe replacement weld
(work request 950065745, minor plant change E12-3-95-246), could not be retrieved by
the licensee. The licensee subsequently issued problem identification form 01997-
08032 to address this issue. The licensee's inability retrieve the radiographic record of
the Unit 3 HPCI pipe weld {FW-3) is considered a violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B,
