The subject inspection report is forwarded for information.

'

One item of nonconformance was identified relative to location of con-

struction joints. The licensee's position was stated to be that the

strength analysis assumed no bond at the construction joint; however,

.

core drilling was being accomplished to determine the exact location

of the joints and the degree of bond. This matter will be reviewed

during subsequent inspections.

^J

!

The investigation of the extent of voids present in the South 180

0

section of the ring girder has not been completed. Our inspector

,

feels that the extent of the voids in the South 1800 section are much

less than that identified in the North 1800 section, based on pre-

j

liminary data.

i

.

We plan to re-evaluate the QC system of Three Mile Island during sub-

sequent inspections.
