Exit Interview

The inspection

scope

and findings were

summarized

on June

15,

1979, with

those

persons

indicated

in Paragraph

1

above.

Methods for assuring

a

reliable concrete truck drum rotation count were discussed in detail.

3.

Unresolved Items

Unresolved

items

are matters

about which more information is required to

determine

whether

they are

acceptable

or

may involve noncompliance

or

deviations.

One

new unresolved

item identified during this inspection is

discussed in paragraph 4.b.

4.

Independent Inspection

Construction Status

The inspector

made

a walk-through inspection of the powerblock

and

storage

areas

which included observation of concrete

placement within

Unit

1 containment,

rebar installation for Unit 2 containment,

welding

and radiography of containment

dome plates,

and heat exchanger

storage

and steam generator activities in storage

yard number

12.

Erection of

the Unit

1

containment

liner is

now at the fourteenth ring.

Work

forces have completed the second liftof the Unit 2 containment building

placement

on the east

side

around

the valve chambers.

Seal

mat work

-2-

on horizontal

surfaces

and

sloped

walls for the

reactor auxiliary

building for Units 3 and 4 is continuing with an average of one concrete

placement

being

made per week.

The

combined

work force at the site

now totals

some 3300 persons.

Concrete Placement Activities

Upon arriving at the site on June

12,

1979, the inspector,

as

a part

of his walk-through inspection,

observed

a partial placement

of the

Unit

1 containment

secondary

shield wall.

This

was

a

12 foot lift

designated

as

placement

number

1CBIW233005.

A 5,000

pound,

M-72 mix

was being placed

by one

pump,

and

a total of 95 yards

was scheduled

for placement.

The inspector

reviewed the latest concrete test report

and noted the air~ slump,

and temperature

readings for a 5 yard delivery

on ticket number

34219 for truck number 24.

All results

were within

prescribed limits.

The inspector held discussions

with inspection

and placement personnel

and monitored vibration activities underway.

Surveillance of activities

at the point of truck discharge

to the

pump disclosed

an inoperative

drum revolution counter

on truck number

24 which, at that point, had

essentially

completed its discharge of concrete.

Specification CAR-SH-

CH-6, paragraph

12 states

"Each truck shall be equipped with an accurate

revolution counter."

Truck number

24 did not have an operative counter

at 3:15 p.m.

and

was

immediately taken out of service for repairs.

The inspector verified proper repair of the counter actuator in the

shop at 5:00 p.m.

A similar finding was

noted

on April ll, 1979,

and classified

as

a

Deficiency in inspection

report 50-402,

403/79-06.

As the licensee

deficiency

response

identifying proposed

corrective

steps

which will

be taken to avoid further noncompliance

had not been

received

as of

this date, this item is being identified as Unresolved Item 400/79-10-01,

"Inoperative Concrete Truck Revolution Counter." It was observed that

the yardage

discharged

by truck 24 had been placed within the specified

time

and results

of

QC acceptance

at the

pump line discharge

point

were acceptable

as observed earlier.

Steam Generator Modification

Inspection report 50-400, 401/79-08 summarized preliminary work activi-

ties underway in conjunction with the Westinghouse modification of six

steam

generators

at the Harris site.

A 24 inch auxiliary feedwater

port has

now been

cut through the four inch shell of the first steam

generator.

A weld torch assembly

proven out in the

Tampa

shops

was

used to cut the port from within the generator

in order to keep the

interior free from contamination.

The licensee's

site

QA unit has recently agreed

to perform specific

QC

functions for Westinghouse in addition to their nondestructive

examination

responsibilities.

The licensee

has

designated

hold points

under the

Inspection

Point

Program

established

by

Westinghouse

who retains

responsibility for quality assurance

during the modification.

No items of noncompliance or deviations were noted during the above inspection.

Implementing Procedures

(Units 1'and 2)

The inspector

re-examined

the

CBGI gA Manual for ASME Section III Products,

previously reviewed

and described

in inspection report 50-400,

401,

402,

403/78-04,

to verify established

quality assurance

procedures

comply with

PSAR requirements.

The review confirmed that adequate

gA plans, instructions

and procedures

for specific safety related activities have been established

in the gA manuals

and that these

documents

conform to the gA program described

in Section 1.8 of the Harris PSAR.

No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.

above specified

temperature.

The licensee

notified Region II

by telephone

on May 22, 1979, that the potentially reportable deficiency

had been

evaluated

and determined to be nonreportable.

The inspector

held discussions

with the site principal

(}A specialist,

was

informed

on

June

13,

1979, that during field activities at the site,

access

The eight heat exchangers

are in storage at the site and were furnished by

Westinghouse

in 1976.

The inspector

held discussions

with gA personnel,

examined

the components

involved,

and reviewed the data package for serial
