4.

Radiographs

The inspector stated that the sensitivity level being

met by M. W. Kellogg inspection procedures was the

4T hole and not the 2T hole as specified by USAS B31.7.

The licensee stated that this item had been identified in

an internal audit and the Code Case 72 is the only reference

that could be found allowing such a deviation.

The

licensee further stated that he is looking into the

acceptability of this code case.

(See Details III,

paragraph 4)

5.

Welding

i

The inspector stated that his review of makeup and

'

purification system piping (MU) welds indicated that

weld MU-65 should be reevaluated with regard to joint

Os

blending since the radiograph di.d not appear to be

acceptable. The licensee agreed that the necessary

,

corrective action would be taken to place the weld

in an acceptable condition.

Ecuirment Handline. Stor we. nnd Insnection Prc rtm

During the inspection of October 6-8, 1971, deficiencies were identified

in FPC's equipment handling, storage, cnd inspection progrsa.

Actions

to correct the specific deficiencies and to prevent recurrences were

described in FFC's letter of December 16, 1971, and were reviewed in the

subsequent inspection.

As a result of this review and to help in the eve.luation of the

adequacy of FPC's quality control program for handling, storing,

inspecting, and installing Class I equipment and components, RO:II

'

requested in our letter of January 27, 1972, copies of both volumes

Meterial and Fabrication Certifications

During the inspection of December 7-10, 1971, deficiencies in the

material and fabrication certifications for Class I components were

identified by the RO:II inspector and reported as an item of

nonccmpliance.V

During the inspection of February 1-4, 1972, FPC info med the

D

inspector that FPC was auditing the MW supplied quality assur?nce

(-]

(QA) data packages containing material and fabrication certifica-

tiens. Although the audit was not complete, FPC management said

that they would request E&W to upgrade the QA data packages.2/

The inspector was infomed that following FPC notification, E&W

also audited the QA data packages.

On July 20, 1972, MW requested

that FPC ship the QA data packages to them so that they could

compare the centents of FPC's QA data packages with the master

file and upgrade them as required.

On August 11, 1972, FPC shipped

to MW the QA data packages which were ensite at the time and

which had been supplied by MU.

The ship =ent covered approxi-

mately 70 purchase orders.

The documentation packages have been returned to the Crystal

River site. The inspector reviewed the packages for decay heat

pumps la and 1B and for the reactor building spray pumps lA and

1B.

No deficiencies or discrepancies were noted.

Identification of B&W Construction Comcanv's Quality Centrol

Requirements for Crystal River 3

The inspection of August 15-17 and 29-31, 1972, revealed deficiencies

in the identification of B&W Construction Company's qualtiy assurance

and quality control programs.1/

FPC's corrective actions are described in their letter dated Noveriber 7,

1972.

These have been reviewed and are discussed below.

The inspector was informed that B&W Construction Company and FPC

agreed that the entire B&W Construction Company Quality Centrol

Manual was applicable to B&W Construction Company activities

although revisions were needed in certain sections.

FPC also

imposed additional requirements on certain sections,

g)

B&W Ccnstruction Comporry had informed FPC that they intended to

change the Field Cpecifications to make it applicable to the

(\\s_,/

various site conditions and that ec=nensurate with this upgrading,

they would make a concerted effort to enforce compliance and

documentation.

The inspector looked at B&W Construction Ccmpany's copy of their

Field Specification book and verified that changes had been made.

Nonapplicable portiens had been deleted by red felt tip pen and

additions had been made in ink.

The Field Specifications have been revised to provide the minimum

requirements for assuring the safe and acceptable method and

requirements for handling, storing, inspecting, and installing

B&W supplied equignent.

The. inspector considers these items closed.

Additional inspection

effort is planned as part of the nonnal AEC inspection program.

During the inspection of August 15-17, 1972, the inspector

observed the motors from decay heat pumps 1A and 1B being

<

removed frcm the decay heat pits for motor strip heater

i -

replacement. The' documentation for the repairs to the

.=

motor for DHP-1B was found to be in order; however, the

i

documentation for the change to the DHP-1A motor was not

available.y

This inspection of the documentation of the engineering

change (replacing 120V strip heaters with 480V strip heaters)

was reviewed and observed to be in order. The inspector has

[

no additional questions at this time and considers this

item resolved.

Weld Rod Control Procedure

While observing welds being performed onsite, the inspector noticed

that a welder had kept weld fillt.r material in his tool box after the

end of the previous day's shift. FPC and JAJ personnel agreed that

this was a violation of FPC's Weld Rod Control Procedure W-21.

However,

after a review of the procedure, FPC and JAJ concurred that the welder

was not in'arrect in his interpretation of the procedure which stated

in part, ". . . return weld filler material either at the end of the

job or at shift change." Since the welder was not finished with the

job, he kept the weld filler material.

,

The FPC representative sa.id that the intent of the procedure was that

whichever event occurred first should govern the control of the material.

p

He agreed that the meaning was ambiguous and stated that the proce-

dure would be clarified. Clarification will be examined on the next

inspection.

Welding Procedure Review

a.

The inspector reviewed welding procedure SS-1-TIG and no' dis-

crepancies were found.

b.

The inspector reviewed welding procedures CS-1-TIG-SMA and

,

CS-2-TIG-SNA and the procedure qualification records. The pro-

cadures were qualified using a material with thickness'of 0.712

4

inch, thereby qualifying the procedure for P-1 materials with

thickness from 3/16 inch to 2T (1.424 inches). Post-weld heat

j

treatment was not performed when the procedure was qualified.

The inspector pointed out that USAS B31.7 requires heat treat-

ment for pressure piping of P-1 materials thicker than 3/4 inch.

Also, according to ASNE Section IX, which is referenced by USAS

4

B31.7, heat treatment is an essential variable which requires

i

that weld procedure qualification must be made individually fers

(a) where no post-weld heat treatment is used; and (b) where post-

.

weld heat treatment is used.

1

The licensee stated that since the material thickness used in the

qualification did not require post-weld heat treatment and the-

qualified thickness range is 3/16 inch to 2T, the procedure is

fully qualified for that range. The inspector disagreed. The

licensee stated that, to date, these procedures have not been

used for material thickness greater than 3/4 inch, and that he

4

would investigate the matter further prior to using them on such

material.

J

i

Resolution will be examined on the next inspection.

t

4.

Makeup and Purification System Documentation

~

The inspector examined the welding and nondestructive test'documen-

,

tation and the radiographs on makeup and purification system assembly,

MU-241. The inspector found during the review of the radiographs on

!

this assembly, that the sensitivity level of the 2T hole and the

film side penetrameter thickness was not in accordance with USAS.

B31.7, Appendix B, paragraph B-1-120.2.

A review of the M. W. Kellogg nondestructive procedure, ES-403,

showed that according to the procedure, the required sensitivity

level was the 4T hole and the 0.012-inch penetrameter thickness.

Further investigation showed that M. W. Kellogg is using Code case

72 dated August 1970 as its basis in the deviation in sensitivity

_

and penetrameter requirements.

!

This code case has not been included in USAS B31.7 even though a

subsequent addendum, USAS B31.7 C (1971), has been issued.

The licensee had also identified this item in an internal audit

and is locking into the acceptability of this code case. The inspec-

tor stated that the acceptability of the code case must be resolved

and since the code case is not part of the FSAR, it must be included

if found to be acceptable. The licensee said that this will be done.

5.

Makeup and Purification System Weld Joint Examination

'

After visually examining welus MU-05 and 66, the inspector reviewed

the welding and nondestructive testing records and radiographs.

MU-66 had been RT inspected and rejected due to incomplete penetration.

The repair cycle had not yet begun. The documentation was reviewed with

no further questions. MU-65 had also been RT inspected, and the in-

spector stated that a reevaluation of the RT should be performed for

root blending and for visual acceptability for RT.

The remaining docu-

mentation was reviewed with no further questions. The licensee agreed

that the review would be made and any necessary corrective act ion would

be taken on MU-65. He added that this weld had not gone through the

internal audit cycle.
