TURNER INDUSTRIES GROUP, L.L.C. - PIPE FABRICATION DIVISIONS NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION INSPECTION REPORT NO. 99902059/2018-201

Dear Mr. Frazier:

On April 16-19, 2018, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff conducted an inspection at the Turner Industries Group, L.L.C. - Pipe Fabrication Divisions (here after referred to as Turner Industries) facility in Paris, TX. The purpose of this limited scope inspection was to assess Turner Industries compliance with the provisions of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 21, Reporting of Defects and Noncompliance, and selected portions of Appendix B, Quality Assurance Program Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants and Fuel Reprocessing Plants, to 10 CFR Part 50, Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities.

This technically-focused inspection specifically evaluated Turner Industries implementation of the quality activities associated with the design and fabrication of the piping subassemblies for the Westinghouse Electric Company AP1000 reactor design. The enclosed report presents the results of this inspection. This NRC inspection report does not constitute NRC endorsement of your overall quality assurance (QA) or 10 CFR Part 21 programs.

During this inspection, the NRC staff inspected records associated with inspections, tests, analyses, and acceptance criteria (ITAAC) from Revision 19 to the certified AP1000 Design Control Document. Specifically, these activities were associated with ITAACs 2.2.01.02b, 2.2.01.03b, and 2.2.01.04b for the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant Units 3 and 4. The NRC inspection team did not identify any findings associated with the ITAAC contained in Section 3 of the attachment to this report.

Based on the results of this inspection, the NRC inspection team found the implementation of your QA program met the requirements imposed on you by your customers or NRC licensees.

No findings of significance were identified.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding, of the NRCs Rules of Practice, the NRC will make available electronically for public inspection a copy of this letter, its enclosure, and your response through the NRC Public Document Room or from the NRCs Agencywide Documents Access and Management System, which is accessible at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html.

SUMMARY

Turner Industries Group, L.L.C. - Pipe Fabrication Division 99902059/2018-201 The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff conducted a vendor inspection at the Turner Industries Group, L.L.C. - Pipe Fabrication Divisions (here after referred to as Turner Industries), facility in Paris, TX, to verify that it had implemented an adequate quality assurance (QA) program that complies with the requirements of Appendix B, Quality Assurance Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants and Fuel Reprocessing Plants, to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 50, Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities. In addition, the NRC inspection also verified that Turner Industries implemented a program under 10 CFR Part 21, Reporting of Defects and Noncompliance. Furthermore, the NRC inspection team verified that Turner Industries had implemented a program in accordance with the applicable requirements of Subsection NCA, General Requirements for Division 1 and Division 2, of Section III, Rules for Construction of Nuclear Facility Components, Subsection NB, Class 1 Components, Subsection NC, Class 2 Components, and Subsection ND, Class 3 Components, of Section III,Section V, Nondestructive Examination, and Section IX, Welding and Brazing Qualification, of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, 1998 Edition, 2000 Addenda, and the American Society for Nondestructive Testing SNT-TC-1A, Personnel Qualification and Certification in Nondestructive Testing.

This technically-focused inspection specifically evaluated Turner Industries implementation of the quality activities associated with the design and fabrication of the piping subassemblies for the Westinghouse Electric Company AP1000 reactor design. Specific activities observed by the NRC inspection team included:

  • Cold pipe bending, visual inspection (VT), and ultrasonic testing (UT) thickness measurement of a piping spool for the Passive Containment Cooling System (PCS) for Vogtle Electric Generating Plant (here after referred to as Vogtle) Unit 3
  • Final cleaning and final inspection of a piping spool for the PCS for Vogtle Unit 4
  • Marking, tagging, and shipment preparation for eight piping sub-assemblies for Vogtle Units 3 and 4
  • Fit-up and fit-up inspection, welding of stainless steel, VT and liquid penetrant inspection of a pipe to valve butt weld for the Passive Core Cooling System (PXS) Vogtle Unit 4
  • Welding of a stainless steel socket weld for a piping spool for the PXS for Vogtle Unit 4
  • Corrective Action Program Condition Action Reports Screening Meeting In addition to observing these activities, the NRC inspection team verified that measuring and test equipment (M&TE) was properly identified, marked, calibrated, and used within its calibrated range.

These regulations served as the bases for the NRC inspection:

  • 10 CFR Part 21 During the course of this inspection, the NRC inspection team implemented Inspection Procedure (IP) 36100, Inspection of 10 CFR Part 21 and Programs for Reporting Defects and Noncompliance, dated February 13, 2012; IP 43002, Routine Inspections of Nuclear Vendors, dated January 27, 2017; and IP 43004, Inspection of Commercial-Grade Dedication Programs, dated January 27, 2017.

The NRC inspection team determined that Turner Industries established appropriate programs for training and qualification; 10 CFR Part 21; design control; commercial-grade dedication; procurement document control; control of equipment, materials, and services; identification and control of materials, parts, and components; control of special processes; inspection; control of M&TE; handling, storage, and shipping; nonconforming material, parts, or components; corrective action; and internal audits in accordance with the applicable regulatory requirements of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50. Based on the limited sample of documents reviewed and activities observed, the NRC inspection team also determined that Turner Industries is implementing its policies and procedures associated with these programs. No findings of significance were identified.

The NRC inspection team reviewed Turner Industries activities to determine whether information will be available to support close out of the applicable ITAAC for the AP1000 piping subassemblies.

The NRC inspection team did not identify any findings associated with the ITAAC identified below:

No. ITAAC No. Design Commitment Acceptance Criteria 2.b) The piping identified in The ASME Code Section III Table 2.2.1-2 as ASME Code design reports exist for the as-Section III is designed and 92 2.2.01.02b built piping identified in Table constructed in accordance with 2.2.1-2 as ASME Code ASME Code Section III Section III.
