ENCLOSURE Docket No. 50-346 Certain activities under your construction permit appear to be in noncompliance with AEC regu1=Hans as indicated below:
1.
10 CFR Part 50, Appe=<Hw B, Criterion YTTI, states, in part, that:
" Measures shall be established to control the... storage...
and preservation of material and equipment in accordance with work and inspection instructions to prevent damage or deterioration."
Contrary to the above, measures had not been established to control the storage and preservation of certain material and equipment as evidenced by our observations that structural steel support members for the reactor pressure vessel and steam generators and anchor bolts for the primary coolant pumps were (1) unprotected from the weather, (2) lacked adequate support dunnage, and (3) were located adjacent to a heavily traveled roadway wherein damage from vehicles could occur.
2.
10 CFR Part 50.55(e) requires that the holder of a construction permit shall promptly notify the appropriate Atomic Energy Commission Regional Office and submit a written report within 30 days to the Director of Regulatory Operations of a significant deficiency in construction of or significant damage to a structure, system, or cog onent which will require extensive evaluation, extensive redesign, or extensive repair to meet the criteria and bases stated in the safety analysis report or construction permit or to otherwise establish adequacy of the structure system or components to perform its intended safety function.
Contrary to the above, the circumstances associated with signifi-cant damage to a primary coolant pump voluta which was lost from a truck as a result of a collision during transport to the site I
on, or about, June 2,1972, were not made known to the Directorate of Regulatory Operations Region III staff until July 12, 1972.
Moreover, a written report covering this occurrence has not been submitted.
