t Appendix A NOTICE OF VIOI.ATION Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company Docket No. 50-440 Based on the inspection conducted on June 25-27, 1980, it appears that certain of your activities were in noncompliance with NRC requirements, as noted below. These items are infractions.

1.

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 accom-plished by qualified personnel using qualified procedures in accord-ance with applicable codes, standards, specifications, criteria and other special requirements.

Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company PSAR Section 17, paragraph 17.1.9.1 states, in part, that..."Special processes to be used during the manufacture and installation of equipment shall be established and controlled in accordance with approved procedures..."

General Electric Company Installation and Service Engineering Division (I&SE) procedure No. GWP-1000, Revision 15, paragraph 5.11.1.1 states that, " Bead width shall be limited to the lesser of three times the diameter of the electrode core, or 5/8".

Contrary to the above, on June 26, 1980, the inspector established that at least a pass of the weld bead width of the Recirculation System weld No. B33-1-B6 on traveller No. T1-B33-06 was between 3/4" to 1" and 1/8" diameter electrodes were used.

2.

Appendix A

  • Pullman Power Products dcawing for pipe support No. IP42-H123 requires that welds No. AFW4 and AFW5 be full penetration welds.

Contrary to the above, on June 27, 1980, the inspector established that welds No. AFW4 and AFW5 of the Emergency Closed Cooling System Pipe Support No. IP42-H123 failed to meet the procedure and drawing requirements in that (1) the welds appear to have undercuts exceeding 1/32" and (2) the welds do not appear to penetrate the back side of plate. Furthermore, both welds were accepted by PPP on September 17, 1979.
