The enclosure is Bechtel's final report to MCAR-21 which concludes that a safety problem does not exist with the "underfabricated" field welds.
Consumero Power closed. the CPCo Nonconformance Report No QF-201, dealing with the failure of Bechtel Quality Control to determine discrepancies in field velds, on July 31, 1978. Closure was based on CPCo overinspection of hanger fillet velds concurring with Bechtel inspection results.
A review of the technical reports prepared by ITT Grinnell revealed several errors which require editorial corrections. The errors do not affect the previous conclusion that a salety problem does not exist with the velds'as designed and as fabricated condition. The final 50 55(c) report vill follow obtainin6 the necessary corrections as all other corrective actions have been taken.

Dear Mr. Keeley:
MCAR-21 Revision 1 to the' Final Report covering the field weld size discrepancies associated with hanger fabrication is attached for your information and use. This Report includes a description of the deficiency, the probabic cause, corrective actions taken to prevent repetition,
' safety implications with a determination of reportability; conclusions
. and recommendations.
It has been concluded that the referenced field welds do not compromise plant safety based upon investigative results by ITT Crinnell for welding identified in MCARs 18 and 19.
Very truly yours,
., - - V .

Field weld size discrepancies associated with hanger fabrication FINAL REPORT, REVISION 1 f.
DATE: 6/14/78 PROJECT: Consumers Power Company Midland Plant Units 1 & 2 ,
Bechtel Job 7220.
Description of Discrepancy An inspection at the Midland jobsite, using a weld fillet gage, was conducted by Quality Control of a sample of 80 completed hangers consisting
. of 300 field welds. This sample represents 10% of the Q-listed hangers with field fillet welds installed to date. The inspection was to deter-mine the actual field weld size compared to Grinnell design and sketches.
It was discovered that, contrary to the specified ficid weld size required by Crinnell drawings, the actual field weld size' for 26 hangers, repre-
.senting 49 field we3ds, were undersize. This deficiency was discovered during the investigation of MCARs #18 and #19 which identified similar--
' weld size deficiencies in Grinnell's shop welds. .
Probable Cause 1.- The field weld sizes shown on the Grinnell drawings do not specify a weld size tolerance. The craft velders produced field welds which were undersized compared to drawing requirements.
- 2. The principal reason for QC overlooking several undersize fillet
' welds was .apparently a misinterpretation of the QC instructions regarding inspection technique. The instructions require the QCE to visually examine to detect the worst condition (e.g. , smalle'st veld size), take a measurement to verify acceptance, and visually compare the other items based on this measurement. Instead of the worst case, the,QCE used the most representative case, and by applying past practical experience and judgment, ignored what he believed were minor and insignificant variations from the normal.
Corrective Action
- 1. The craf t velders and field weld engineers have been instructed that there is no undersize tolerance for field welds,. Welds as deposited must meet the drawing requirements.
- 2. For all field weld's subsequent to the identification of this defi-ciency, tha QCEs, through further training and monitoring by QC supervision, have instituted a more rigorous application of the QCI instructions. They are no longer modifying the stated inspection technique by applying qualifying judgment and practical experience.
Instead, all undersize welds, no matter what the extent of the undersize condition or for how short a length, are being sought ar.d classified as unacceptable.

Safety Implications Initially, this deficiency was considered a potentially reportabic discrepancy because a safety problem could exist if a Q-listed pipe However, l.
support should fail due to an underfabricated field weld.
based on the results of follow-up analysis which established the design conservatism of the support designs, and the results of the full size destructive loading tests with both underspecified and underfabricated exist.
- welds (reference MCAR #18), we conclude a safety problem does not Field welds identified by this MCAR are similar to the shop welds indentified in MCAR #19. Therefore, the Grinnell investigation applies to this MCAR.
Crinnell states that although some of the shop welds are underfabricated there is no safety from the veld sizes specified on the hanger drawings,

To confirm Grinnell's contention that no safety problem exists, Grinnell

Conclusions and Recommendations The results of the l'TT Grinnell investigations into MCARs #18 and #19 conclude that the identified underspecified and underf abricated welds do not compromise plant safety.
. The discrepant field welds identified by the MCAR are within the tolerance range identified and analyzed by ITT Grinnell for MCARs #18 and #19.
