O APPENDIX A
, NOTICE OF VIOLATION Public Service Company of New Hampshire Docket No. 50-443 This refers to the inspection conducted by the resident inspector assigned to the Seabrook Station, Units 1 and 2, Seabrook, New Hampshire, of activities authorized by NRC License No. CPPR-135.
During this inspection, cor/.ted Octobar 13 - November 21, 1980, the following apparent item of noncomplit ce was identified:
10 CFR 50, Appendiy. 3, Criterion V states, in part, that:
" Activities i
affecting quality shall be... accomplished in accordance with (the prescribed) instructions, procedures, or drawings."
The Seabrook Station PSAR for Units 1 and 2 states, in part, in paragraph 17.1.5 that:
"Each organization is required to perform their respective quality related activities covered by this program in accordance with docu-mented instructions, procedures, or drawings." The Seabrook Station PSAR also commits in Section 3 to the ASME B&PV Code,Section III (1977 Winter Addenda) for piping.
Section III of the ASME B&PV Code, 1977 edition with Winter Addenda, Sub-section NC-2500 refers to the (UE&C) material specification for base metal repairs to pressure retaining material. Also, Subsections NC-2400 and NC-l 4300 require repair welding conformance to ASME Section IX.
l ASME Section IX requires, among other things, that thickness and joint l
design are essential variables.
UE&C Specification 006-248-1, Revision 4, l
indicates that a liquid penetrant test (LPT) is required for the final examination of base metal repair welds on stainless steel.
Contrary to the above, on October 24, 1980, a base metal repair to stainless steel pipe spool E2936-132 was accomplished by welding using a welding procedure specification unqualified for the actual welding process thickness and indicating a type of joint (fillet) inappropriate to the repair. Addi-tionlly, no LPT was scheduled or accomplished on the completed repair weld.
This is an infraction applicable to Docket No. 50-443.
