2 POTENTIALLY REPORTABLE DEFICIENCY - 10CFR50.55(e)

CONTAINMENT MODIFICATION QA PROGRAM BREAKDOWN

Reference:

Letter G02-80-299, dated December 15, 1980, RG Matlock to RH Engelken In accordance with the guidelines established for the reporting of 10CFR50.55(e) conditions, an interim report describing a potentially reportable deficiency regarding the Contract 213A QA Program was trans-mitted to you by the Reference letter.

This report indicated the docu-mentation review relating to material traceability, welder qualification and weld examination was expected to be completed by January 30, 1981, and the engineering resolution of identified deficiencies was expected to be completed by February 16, 1981.

The scope of this documentation review effort has been expanded from what was originally anticipated, in *order to assess whether or not group traceability can be demonstrated in areas where unique traceability had been unnecessarily specified but not implemented by the contractor (i.e.,

non-ASME downcomer bracing and non-pressure boundary containment vessel attachments).

Also additional inspections or re-inspections may be required, beyond what was originally anticipated, to demonstrate acceptability of some welding.

This work is still underway, and we are therefore unable to provide a final report at this time.

March 10, 1981 G02-81-53 Based on the review to date, and the engineering evaluation of the identified deficiencies, no significant design or construction deficien-cies which 'could have affected adversely the safety of operation of the plant has been identified.

We expect to issue a final report on this matter by April 30, 1981, after completion of the ongoing documentation review and additional inspections to be performed.
