on June 20,
1980 with
those
persons
indicated in Paragraph

Licensee Action on Previous inspection Findings
a
~
(Closed)
Unresolved
Item (400/79-05-01):
Cold spring controls.
This
item concerns
the licensee
lack of workable requirements in the area
of cold spring controls for piping.
The inspector
reviewed
EBASCO
Drawings
CAR-2165-G-107SOl
Rev
1 "Field Installation Tolerances
for
Hangers"
and CAR-2165-G-107
S02 Rev.
1" Field Installation Tolerances
for Piping" which the
licensee
had
developed
to provide workable
requirements
for piping cold spring control.
No discrepancies
were
noted.
This item is considered closed.
b.
- (Closed)
Unresolved
Item (400/80-09-01):
"Surface Defects in Hanger
and Iiner Attachment Welds".
This item concerns
NRC inspector identified surface defects in contain-
ment spray system hanger
and attachment
made
and accepted
by the
licensee's
contractor,
CBRI. The inspector
reviewed results
(records)
of visual examination,
made by the licensee,
performed on welds subject
to the
under
cut
requirements
describ'ed
in paragraph
3.6.4 of
AWS
D1.1-77.
This review disclosed 'that
RH vertical,.weld of clip to pad
joint (hanger
No.
1-CT-H-7 and
pad
No.
65C3
on drawing
CBSI-65 Rev.
3) did not meet
the undercut
requirement.
The undercut
was repaired
at the licensee's
direction.
The inspector stated that he would close
this matter
as
an unresolved
item and would identify it as
a noncom-
pliance.
This matter is discussed
under paragraph
3d of this report.
(Closed)
Unresolved
Item (400/80-09-02):
"Undercut Containment
Spray
Piping Attachment Weld".
This item
concerns
NRC inspector identified mechanical'ndercut
in
containment
spray
system piping attachment
weld made
and accepted
by
the licensee's
fabricator,
Southwest Fabricating
and Welding Company,
Inc.
(SwFab).
The inspector reviewed results (records) of visual exam-
ination, made by the licensee,
performed on welds subject to the undercut
requirements
described in paragraph
NB-4424 of ASME Section III (71S73).
This review disclosed
that the top trunnion weld on Bergen Paterson
drawing 1-CT-H-71 and
SwFab drawing 1-CT-5-1 did not meet the undercut
requirements.
The undercut
was repaired at the licensee's
direction.
The inspector stated that he would close this matter
as
an unresolved
item and would identify it as
a noncompliance.
This matter is discussed
under paragraph
3d of this report.
The fallowing are examples of unacceptable
undercut:
The undetected
unacceptable
undercut discussed
in paragraph
3b and 3c
above indicate that the contractor
and fabricator did not inspect in
that area
and the licensee's
QA program did not prevent the incorpora-
tion of nonconforming supporting structures into the plant.
(1)
The
RH vertical weld of clip to pad Joint
(hanger
1-CT-H-7 and
pad
65C3 on drawing CBRI 65 Rev.
3) exhibited undercut 1/8" long
by 0.043" deep.
AWS D-l.l-77 requires
that undercut
be no more
than 1/32-inch (0.03125") deep.
(2)
The
top trunnion attachment
weld,
on Bergen
Paterson
Drawing
1-CT-11-71
and
SwFab Drawing 1-CT-5-1, exhibited undercut that
reduced
the material thickness
to 0.186";
the required
minimum
thickness
as determined
by CPSL is 0.190."
ASME B and 8/ Code S71
Paragraph
NB-4400 requires that undercut shall not reduce material
thickness below the required minimum.
Failure to fabricate
and inspect in accordance
with above applicable
codes is in noncompliance with 10 CFR 50.55a.

This is an infraction and is assigned
item no 400/80-15-01:

(Open)
Unresolved
Item (400/80-13-04,
401,
402, 403/80-11-04):

Weld Peening".
This item concerns
the peening of final weld layers without regard for
final surface
inspection.
This item was discussed
with the licensee,
who stated that they expect
a resolution by July 1,
1980.
This item
remains open.

and storage.
b.
Radiographic Examination
The inspector
observed
radiographic inspection in progress for repair
weld no HXSN19A58062 Rl on
a Unit
1 component cooling heat exchanger.
The above inspection
was
compared with the applicable procedure in the
areas
of type of material,

and use of penetrmeters,
and
evaluation and disposition of radiographs.
Co
Cadweld Splicing (Unit 1)
The inspector
observed
the
cadweld splicing of three joints and the
inspection

Reinforcing Steel Storage
(Units 1, 2, 3 and 4)
On June
24,
1980,
the inspector,
accompanied
by
a representative
of
the licensee,
made
a general inspection of the excavated
area north of

stored
items to be on dunnage to allow air circulation and to minimize
trapped
water.
Failure to follow established
procedure is in noncom-
pliance with 10 CFR 50 Appendix B Criterion V.

Licensee Identified Items (50. 55 (e) )
a.
New 50.55(e)
Items
Prior to the inspection the licensee identified the following item as
a potential reportable item:
One instrumentation
tubing support
frame manufactured
by Bergen-
Paterson of Laconia,
was found to contain deficient
welds during receiving inspection.
The welds exhibited undercut
and lack of fusion.
After the initial notification and prior to
this inspection
the licensee
stated
that this condition was not
considered
significant
and thus not reportable.
This inspector
reviewed/inspected
the applicable
deficiency reports,
evaluation
and the item in question.
Based on the above review and inspection
this inspector concurs that the item is not reportable.
Thirteen
embedment
plates
manufactured
by Afco in Little Rock,
Ark.
were
rejected
during receiving
inspection ,for deficient
Anchor bolt
and
shear
lug fillet welds
were
found to
contain porosity, lack of fusion,
and overlap.
After the initial
notification
and prior to this inspection
the licensee
stated
that this condition
was not considered
significant and thus not
reportable.
This
inspector'eviewed/inspected
the
applicable
deficiency reports,
evaluation
and
a representative
sample of the
items in question.
Based
on the above review and,inspection this
inspector concurs that the item is not reportable.
One embedment plate manufactured
by Alfab of Enterprise,
was
rejected
during receiving
inspection for deficient welds.
Three
anchor bolt fillet welds were rejected for unacceptable
undercut.
After the initial notification
and prior to this
inspection
the
licensee
stated
that this
condition
was
not
considered
significant
and thus not reportable.
This inspector
reviewed/inspected
the applicable deficienty reports,
evaluation
and
the item in question.
Based
on the above review and inspec-
tion this inspector concurs that the item is not reportable.
(4)
Five of five embedment
plates for the
emergency
service
water
intake structures
supports
received
from the Peden Steel
Company
in Raleigh, North Carolina have been rejected.
The welds attaching
the anchor bolts to the embedment plates
do not meet
code overlap
requirements.
After the initial notification and prior to this
inspection the licensee
stated
that. this condition was not consi-
dered significant and thus not reportable.
This inspector reviewed/
inspected
the applicable
deficiency reports,
evaluation
and
a,
representative
sample
of the
items in question.
Based
on the
above
review and inspection this inspector
concurs that the item
is not reportable.
(5)
Four No.
8 and four No.
11 "I" shaped
rebars
were not placed in a
column
as required
by drawings.
The
column~ is located in the
auxiliary building and is integral with a wall.
The bars
were
noted missing during
a routine
gC check in preparation for the
next
pour.
After the initial notification,and prior to the
conclusion
of this inspection
the licensee
stated
that this
condition was not considered significant and thus not reportable.
This inspector
examined the column in question to verify location
and the
number of missing bars.
The inspector
observed
concrete
removal activities
on the top of the column.
This item will be
evaluated during subsequent
inspections.
