Docket No. 50-458/79-06 APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Based on the results of NRC inspection conducted November 18-21, and December 4-7, 1979, it appears that certain of your activities were not conducted in full compliance with the conditions of your NRC Construction Pernit No. CPPR-145 as indicated below:

A.

Deletion of and Failure to Specify Acceptance Criteria Criterion V of Appendix B to 10 CFR 50 requires that instructions shall include appropriate quantitative or qualitative acceptance criteria for determining that important activities have been satisfactorily accom-plished.

The River Bend PSAR, in Section 3.8.4.2, references tests to be per-formed-for measurement of potential alkali reactivity for fine and coarse aggregates. These tests, ASTM C227 and ASIM C289, are to be included as part of the specification for concrete tasting services.

Stone & Webster Construction Specification 210.360, " Concrete Testing Services," requires that these tests be performed to test the aggregates for compliance with the ASTM specification requirements.

Contrary to the above:

1.

A change to the specification (by Engineering and Design Coordina-tion Report, PS-9) was initiated on November 29, 1979, to perform these tests for information on.'.y effectively deleting the accept /

reject criteria established by ASTM C227 and ASTM C289 from the specification.

2.

Engineering and Design Coordination Reports (E&DCR) No. P-G-10 and P-G-10A, which were used to specify special fill grout material, failed to provide the acceptance criteria for compression testing of the material.

This is an infraction.

B.

Failure to Identify Unsatisfactory Test Results and Follow Construction Specifications i

i Criterion V of Appendix B to 10 CFR 50 requires that activities affecting quality shall be in accordance with prescribed instructions, procedures and drawings.

l 80038101 g

Stone & Webster Construction Specification 210.360, " Concrete Testing Services," requires that fine aggregates be tested for compliance with ASTM C33, " Standard Specification for Concrete Aggregates."

Paragraph 4.3 of ASTM C33 requires that the fine aggregates shall not have more than 45% retained between any two consecutive sieves for satisfactory performance of the sieve analysis.

Stone & Webster Construction Specification 210.360, " Concrete Testing Services," also requires that ASTM C227 tests be conducted on aggregate materials prior to use.

Contrary to the above:

1.

A review of Inspection Reports IR9001510 and IR9001595, " Fine Aggregate Reports," indicated values greater than 45% retention (46-53%) between two consecutive sieves during performance of the sieve analysis. These values were not identified as not meeting the specification requirements.

2.

Safety-related concrete was placed in pump bases in the Auxiliary Building prior to receipt of 90 day results of the mortar bar (ASTM C227) tests.

This is an infraction. 4
