Failure to Place Embankment Core Fills at Specified Moisture Content.
Revised procedures and specifications have been examined and approved by NRR and IE:RII.
New impervious fillis being placed in accordance with the revised procedures and specifications.
Impervious fill in the separating dike has been removed and replaced in accordance with revised procedures and specifications.
Impervious fill in the west auxiliary dam between stations 21+00 to 25+00 has been removed.
Previously placed impervious fillin the Vest Auxiliary dam diversion area between stations 37+00 to 41+00 is still being evaluated by the licensee.
This item remains open pending review of the licensee's evaluation by NRR and IE:RII.
(Open)
Unresolved Item (400/79-07-03, 401/79-07-03, 402/79-06-03 and 403/79-06-03):

and the number 1 tank building.
Emergency service water lines crossing fillbetween the tank building and rock will be on concrete extending to bed rock.
Density tests will be made at the 5 foot, 7 foot and 10 foot levels and the foundation grade proof rolled at excavations into old yard fill for the nuclear service water line.
Where the nuclear service water lines cross natural
- ground, the excavations will be controlled in accordance with CAR-SH-CH-8.
The licensee is still evaluating powerblock fills and yard fills crossed by category I fuel lines and electrical ducts.
This item remains open pending examination of the licensee's evaluation by NRR and IE:RII.

Independent Inspection The inspector examined the following areas:
a.
Concrete placement numbers 1CBIW248001 and 1CBIW233002 in the Unit 1 containment building and 1TKXW256003 in the Unit 1 tank building.
b.
equality control field reports, nonconformance
- reports, and curing records for June, July and August of 1979.
c ~
At 8:00 p.m.
on August 23,
- 1979, exposed concrete surfaces of interior wall placement numbers 1CBIW248001 and 1CBIW233002 in the Unit 1
containment building were in a dry condition.
The placements were made August 22, 1979.
Specification CAR-'SH-CH 6 states "concrete shall be maintained in a moist condition for at least the first 7 days after placing".
Failure to maintain concrete in a moist condition for the seven day curing period was identified to the licensee as Noncom-pliance Item 400/79-17-01, "Improper curing of structural concrete".
d.
Examination of quality records on structural concrete disclosed that numerous deficiencies are being reported by gA inspectors regarding curing, vibration and vertical discharge of concrete when using the creeter crane to place concrete.
Examination of the Nonconformance Report (NCR) log indicated that some of the construction deficiencies reported by QA inspectors are not being followed up with an NCR report as required by procedure CgC-2, "Nonconformance Control." This was reported to the licensee as Unresolved Item 400/79-17=02, 401/79-17-02, 402/79-16-02 and 403/79-16-02, "Processing and Review of Nonconformance Reports," pending further examination by RII:IE of DDR/DR logs.
