Items 1 and 2 are infractions.
Item 3 is a deficiency.
1.
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion IX requires that nondestructive testing be controlled and accomplished by qualified personnel using qualified proceduras.

" Contractors and venders are responsible for assuring that special processes are performed using qualified procedures and qualified personnel and under controlled conditions..."
GEI and SE procedures No. NDE-PT-1002, Revision 3, " Liquid Penetrant Examinneton Procedure" paragraph 13.0 states in part, " Af t e r, cmp l e t tu.: of the liquid penetrant examination, all traces o'.
penetrant and developer shall be removed....
Cleaning will continue until no trace of developer or pene-trar* is visLble on the cleaned surface".
Paragraph 14.0 requires the recording of examination evaluations on a process data sheet et an examination report.
Contrary to the above, the inspector observed the following inside the ceactor pressure vessel:
a.
Penetrant and developer solution had been applied to the irside diameten of the feedwater nozzle (90 Az) on November 11, 1971, however, the penetrant / developer solutfon had not been cleaned as of November 13, 1978.
Penetrant stain alst was evident on the vessel wall below the adjacent feedwater nozzle indicating inadequate c lean ' r.g.

An area on the wall near the bottom of the vessel also had residual penetrant solution.
The area had not becr adequately cleaned.
d.
Two jet pumps were randomly selected, and the circumen-ferential weld made on the large inside diameter of the diffuser were inspected. Penetrant and developer had not been cleaned from one of the welds on one of the two jet pumps.
2.
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XIII requires that materials and equipment handling, storage and preservation be controlled in accordance with work and inspection instructions to prevent damage or deterioration.
Edison QA 3bnual QAP No. 14, paragraph 14.0.1 stated in part, "hritten work and inspection procedures shall be implemented to control the handling, storage,..., of material and equip-ment to assure the maintenance of quality from source throur' installation or use".
Contrary to the above, the inspector observed the following on November 14, 1978:
a.
RHR Swing Check Valve, 18" gate, E11-50 (P4500) in the RHR service building was not adequately stored or pro-tected, since the valve was mixed with miscellaneous metal and the end cap had a hole in it allowing dust and foreign particles to enter.
b.
Two check valves C11-52 (V82081) were not properly pro-tected, since the valves were among miscellaneous metal and the end cap on one valve was missing.
3.
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVII requires that records shall include closely related data such as qualification of persennel.

Contrary to the above, the inspector found that one c'vil QC inspector hired in February 1977 was not visually tested until June 9, 1978.
Record of adequate vision is a minimum quali-fication for inspection personnel.
