Appendix A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Commonwealth Edison Company Docket No. 50-456; 50-457 Based on the inspection conducted on April 29, and May 20, 1980, it appears that certain of your activities were in noncompliance with NRC requirements, as noted below. All items are infractions.
Items 1 and 3 are for both units and Item 2 is for Uuit 1.
1.
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V states, in part, that " Activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions...
and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions,..."
Commonwealth Edison Company Topical Report No. CE-1-A, Revision 10, Section 5 states, in part, that "The quality assurance actions carried out for design, construction,...will be described in docu-mented instructions...These documents will assist personnel in assur-ing that important activities have been performed".
Attachment "A" entitled " Site Storage and Surveillance Criteria for Commonwealth Edison Received Materials" to Commonwealth Edison Company letter No. BRD-1538 requires that valves be inspected quarterly for Covers.
Contrary to the above, on April 29, 1980, the inspector established that valves in Warehouse No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3 were last inspected on June 29, 1979, June 30, 1979, and September 19, 1979 respectively.
Furthermore, the ends of four 6" check valves stored in Warehouse No. 3 with I.D. No. 2SI-012B, No. ISI-012A, No. ISIO12B, and No.
2SI-012A were not covered.
On May 20, 1980, the inspector determined that actions had been taken to correct this item and to prevent recurrence.
Consequently, no reply to this noncompliance is required.
2.
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion IX states, that " Measures shall be established to assure that special processes, including welding, heat treating, and nondestructive testing, are controlled and accomplished by qualified personnel using qualified procedures in accordance with applicable codes, standards, specifications, criteria, and other special requirements".
Commonwealth Edison Company Topical Report No. CE-1-A, Revision 10, Section 9 states, in part, that " For these processes, quality as-surance is obtained through reliance on personnel qualification and 8007180 S D
Appendix A procedure control in force as appropriate for the processes being employed for a specific task in connection with plant contract work, maintenance, repairs, and modification.".
Phillips, Getschow Company Procedure No. IA-MA-88, Revision 10, states, in part, that..." Stringer beading is preferred and weaving with coated electrodes shall be limited to approximately four times the core wire diameter. NOTE:
For all inservice inspected piping, weaving of the electrode will be limited to approximately 3 times the core wire diameter"...
Contrary to the above, on May 20, 1980, the inspector established the following:
The weld bead width of the Reactor Coolant System weld No.
a.
M-196-LP3-FW12 was between 5/8" to 1" and 1/8" diameter elect-rodes were used.
b.
The weld bead width of the Reactor Coolant System weld No.
M-196-LP1-FW2 was approximately 3/4" wide and 3/32" and 1/8" diameter electrodes were used.
The weld bead width of the Safety Injection System weld No. SI-c.
6-FW7B was approximately 3/4" wide and 3/32" diameter electrodes were used.
3.
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XIII, states, in part, that,
" Measures shall be established to control the handling, storage, shipping, cleaning, and preservation of material and equipment in accordance with work and inspection instructions to prevent damage or deterioration..."

Phillips, Getschow Company Procedure No. QAP-3, Revision 0, Paragraph 4.1.2 requires that E7018, E308, E309, E310 and E316 electgodes manufactured by McKay be stored in the holding oven at 275 F.
Contrary to the above, on May 20, 1980, the inspector established that E308 electrodes with heat Nos. 2877920 and 2197417, and elect-rodes for non nuclear work manufactured by McKay were stored at weld rod oven No. 12 in the welding material issuance station located at the Turbine Building. The weld rod oven temperature was 150 F mea-sured by a contact pyrometer.
