APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Tennessee Valley Authority License No. CPPR-73 Sequoyah Nuclear Plant, Unit No. 2 Based on the NRC inspection August 13-16, 1979, certain of your activities were apparently not conducted in full compliance with NRC requirements as indicated below. These items have been categorized as described in correspondence to you dated December 31, 1974.
As required by Criterion V of Appendix B to 10 CFR 50, and as implemented by the FSAR, paragraph 17.1A.5, " Activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructWns, procedures or drawings...and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures or drawings". TVA Process Specification 1.M.1.2(b) dated December 8,1978 states in paragraph 4.1, "Each welder or welding operator shall be qualified in accordance with the require-ments of ASME Section IX (Process Specification 1.M.2.2) prior to performing welds to the requirements of the particular ASME Code listed in paragraph 1 of this specification".
Contrary to the above, on August 13, 1979, Class 1 piping weld 2 CVC 163 was performed by a welder not qualified to the specified weld procedure (GT88-01) for the thickness welded. Welds 2 CVC 164, 2 CVC 165 and 2 CVC 166 had previously been performed by the same welder and were also made to a wall thickness which exceeded the qualification of the welder to the specified weld procedure. The four welds are located in the chemical and volume control system.
This is an infraction.
