Construction, Section 8 Welding, paragraph 8.2.2. 1, requires all welding materials to be stored in locked storage areas or locked electrode ovens.
BPC Welding Standard WFMC-1, dated April 15,
- 1981, paragraph 4.5.6, requires portable rod warmers to be continuously heated or energized during use except during transit time.
BPC Welding Standard WFMC-l, paragraph 4.5.6, further requires low hydrogen low alloy electrodes to be used directly from portable rod warmers.
Contrary to the above, on November 4-5,
- 1981, adequate measures had not been established to assure that special processes were controlled in that:
1.
The Lead Letter "B" was not attached to the back of the film holders during radiography of welder qualification test assemblies.
2.
Type E8018 welding electrodes were stored in an unguarded unlocked electrode oven.
3.
Cold flux covered welding electrodes were left for approximately eight hours in an unenergized portable rod warmer.
4.
Type E7018 low hydrogen, low alloy electrodes were used from an open bucket adjacent to an energized rod warmer.
This is a Severity Level V Violation (Supplem'ent I.E).
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XIII, as implemented by paragraph
- 13. 1 of the accepted Quality Assurance

Paragraph gW.201. 1 of ASME Section IX requires that welding procedure specifications list specific facts involved in qualifying a
procedure specification.
I Contrary to the above, on November 4, 1981, st,ructures and components were not fabricated to quality standards commensurate with the importance of the safety functions in that the code required specific facts (nonessential variables),
gW-410.5 method of initial interpass cleaning; (jW-410. 10 single electrode or multiple electrode; gW-410. 15 electrode spacing; (jW-410.25
- manual, semi-automatic or machine-automatic welding; and gW-410.26 peening; were not addressed in welding procedure specifications.
This is a Severity Level VI Violation (Supplement I.F).
