kU SUPPLY SYSTEM RESPONSE Corrective Action Taken and Results Achieved A.1 J. A. Jones issued nonconformance report numbers 1-CNCR-257-1432 and 1-CNCR-257-1433 to document the missing anchor bolt washers not installed per drawing CK-37847 for NSW-HX-1A and 2B respect-ively.
The missing anchor bolt washers will be i.nstalled in accordance with technical direction provided in FCN-257-1-80-1448 and the disposition provided'in nonconformance report numbers 1-CNCR-257-1432 a nd 1-CNCR-257-1433. Actual rework will be accomplished during constructica secuencing of work activities.
Further noncontormina conditions will be documented af ter a complete review of WPPSS Quality Class I equipment installations is performed.
A.2 A review of r'rocess Control Sheets for WPPSS Quality Class I equip-ment, in tne process or installation is being performed. Further evidence of oy-passed "hoid points" nave been identified and documented in nonconformance report numoers 1-CNCR-257-1447 through 1497.
Additional nonconiorming conditions will be documented as identified during re-inspection and revies of oil JPPSS Quality Class I equipment in-s talia tions.
J. A. Jones issued currective action request 1-211/257-CAR-006 in relation to oy-passed "hcid points".
It has been ce;crained that ia all cases the " hold poir;ts" were self-innosea by J. A. Jones and were not required by contract or Code. These inspections by-passed can and will be performed upon installation /com-pietion of installations. The J. A. Jones quality b ' gram is being revised to more clearly define these inspection points and to explain neir usaga. Project Operating Procedures PDP-308W and POP-M-501W uill incor orate r these changes and clarifications and will be submitted to UE&C no later than January 23, 1931.
Action Takea to reclude ;ecurrence After procedural revisions are completed, J. A. Jones will perform and document appropriate training for personnel involved to ensure proper implementation of corrective actions stated in Al and A2.
Satisfactory impimentation and re-inspection of all stated corrective actions will result in acceptable equipment installations.
Date of Full Compliance It is anticipated that full compliance will be achieved by February 15, 1981.

~B. 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, as implemented by Section 17.1.5 of the quality assurance program documented in the PSAR and the WPPSS QA Program Manual Procedure QAP-2 Paragraph 3.1 states, in part, that " Activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by
. documented instructions, procedures and drawings, of a type appropriate to the circumstances and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures or drawings. Instructions, procedures or drawings shall include appropriate cuantitative or qualitative acceptance criteria for determining that important activities have been satisfactorily accomplished." -
Table 3.2-2 of the PSAR specifies that the containment spray system piping will meet the recuirements of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessei Code for Section III, Class 2 pioing.
Subarticles NC3660 and NC4240 of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code for Section III, Class 2 pioing specifies requirements for welded joints, incluaing aimension and geometry.
Contrary to tne above, as of November 18, 1980, 3/4-inch diameter threadolet fittings nad been weided to the 10-inch diameter containment spray piping and the joining welds were inspected and accepted by the contractor although the quantitative acceptance criteria of the ASME Code for weid dimensions ana geometry were not included in the instructions, procedures or drawings used to control the work.
Installation of these fittings was specified by United Engineer and Constructor's field change notice No. 211-1-80-113, Revision 1 and iscmetric drawing No. 412443, Revision 2. Neither the welders or insoectors performing this quality affecting activity were cognizant of the code weid size requirenents.
This is severity level V violation (Supplement II of Federal Register l Notice 45 FR 66754, dated October 7,1980).
1 SUPPL / SYSTEM RE5'ONSE Corrective Action Taken and Resuits Achieved B. The / chitec t Engineer has provided J. A. Jones the acceptance criteria for ASME Code welded fittings. Nonconformance report number 1-CNCR-211 239 has been prepared to document improper acceptanct criteria and improper s.ze of threadolet fittings installed. Further nonconforming conditions wi .1 be documented upon J. A. Jones reviev of installed welded fittings of this nature.
J. A. Jones will revise all affected procedures, i.e. , JAJ-NDE-004, l JAJ-NDE-003, JAJ-Wl-16.1 and others, as required to implement the l Quality Program requirements.
