Infraction 45
"10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVII requires in part that, ' Sufficient
r cords shall be maintained to furnish evidence of activities affecting quality.
The record shall include at least the following:
Operating logs and the results
of reviews, inspections, tests, audits, monitoring of vcsrk performance, and
materials analyses.... Inspection and test records shall, as a minimum, identify
the inspector or data recorder, the type of observation, the results, the accept-
ability, the action taken in connection with any deficiencies noted. RecorJs
sha*L1 be identifiable and retrievable....'
" Contrary to this requirement, the results of reviews, interim inspections and
monitoring of reinforcement steel installations were not documented with regard
to the type of observation or the findings, nor did they contain the action taken
in connection with any deficiencies noted."
Comments
-
At the time of the 130 inspection, Bechtel personnel had been exceeding the
requirements of their program by =arking up copies of drawings with rebar
,
requirements during their in-process inspections. These marked up drawings
then were documentation of " interim inspections and monitoring of reinforce-
-
ment steel ins' h tions." In response to this " infraction" Bechtel Q"Hty
Control has modified its program to require this activity to be perfor=ed.
-
The point is that the activity was being perfor=ed, however, on an "infor=al"
basis. The effect of the " infraction" has been to formalize this activity.
'b.
This infraction relates to the lack of documentation for interim inspections.
The Bechtel Que.lity Control progr!u:1 has also required a final inspection and
the documentation of this inspection and this has been perfor=ed.
