1.
(Closed) Deviation (Item A, Notice of Deviation, Inspection Report j
No. 79-01): Failure to provide for Gibbs & Hill Specification No.
2323-MS-43A, Revision 3, requirements with respect to Regulatory l
Guide 1.44, in the fabrication of Contract No. 7124 (Comanche Peak) j austenitic stainless steel piping assemblies containing hot bends.
1 l
This finding has been closed on the basis that solution annealing was performed on affected bends and the committed revision of the Job Specification was accomplished.
The failure to implement com-mitted corrective actions with respect to submittal of technical i
question forms to the Director of Quality Assurance has been identi-l fied as a deviation from corrective action commitment (See Notice of j
Deviation).
1 It was additionally noted during this review, that-the practice used to track status of technical questions, was not fully consistent with Project Engineering Instruction No. 7.34.
Paragraph 4.3 in this document, which was the committed procedure that had been implemented
)
to resolve design specification conflicts, states, "A log should be kept of all technical questions. The log should indicate whether the technical questions are open or closed."
Inspector review of technical l
question logs showed, however, that open or closed status was not j
indicated.
she inspector was verbally informed that a client response automatically closed out the question, with any remaining concerns j
being identified as a new technical' question.
It could not be estab-j lished from the records, however, that this practice was in effect, in
3 a
that additional technical questions on a subject were not referenced i
in a log by the original question on the subject.
i 2.
(Closed) Deviation (Item B, Notice of Deviation, Inspection Report No. 79-01):
Performance of postweld heat treatment using heating and cooling rates that were not in accordance with the applicable ITT Grinnell Industrial Piping, Incorporated (GCO) specification.
i
^
The inspector verified that the identified assembly had been subsequently correctly postweld heat treated, reviews of loads 4
(relative to compliance with proposed heat treatment cycles) were i
being currently performed by the Shop Superintendent prior to heat treatment and verification records were being maintained by the QC Manager (NWD).
3.
(Closed) Deviation (Item C, Notice of Deviation, Inspection Report No. 79-01): Failure to record ovality measurements on the applicable Operations Records for bends performed on Contract No. 7124.
The inspector verified that the commited instructions had been issued j
to production personnel, approvals had been obtained for use of a new revision to the bending procedure (containing a specific form for i
recording ovality measurements) and that the pro:edure had been imple-mented for bends observed in current production fabrication.
4.
(Closed) Deviation (Item D, Notice of Deviation, Inspection Report No. 79-01):
Performance of impact testing on SA-106 Grade B piping material that was not in accordance with the permissible retest pro-visions of Sub-Article NB-2350 in the ASME Section III Code.
i The inspector verified that GC0 had notified their customer relative to the affected piping spools and had received a resolution for the j
involved heats based on temperature at which Section III Code ccmpli-ance could be demonstrated.
It was also established that Materials Engineering was maintaining the committed test log and QA was currently reviewing and approving all purchase orders for testing relative to ASME Section III Code products.
C.
Design Document Controls i
1.
Objectives The objectives of this area of the inspection were to ascersain that 4
procedures have been propared, approved and implemented, which pres-cribe a system for design document control that is consistent with QA Program requirements.
l
4 2.
Method Accomplishment The preceding objectives were accomplished by:
Review of QCN-2.0, Revision 4, " Specifications, Procedures and a.
Standards," in Section 2.0 of the QA Manual.
b.
Review of QCN-2.1, Revision 4, " Drawing and Specification Control,"
in Section 2.0 of the QA Manual.
Review of GC0 shop sketches for Marble Hill Main Feedwater piping c.
assemblies with respect to:
(1) Required submittal of drawings to the customer had been accomplished.
(2) Compliance of sketches with Sargent & Lundy area drawings.
'(3) Compliance of procured piping materials with the technical requirements of Sargent & Lundy Specification No. Y-2741,
" Furnishing and Fabricating of Materials for Piping Systems, Marble Hill Nuclear Generating Station - Units 1 and 2.
d.
Verification that the GC0 Job Specification and procedure sub-mittals were consistent with the requirements of Specification No. Y-2741, Comparison of GC0 fitting procurement requirements for Duke e.
Power Catawba Nuclear Station Main Steam System piping, with respect to the requirements referenced by Duke Power Drawing No. CN-2491-SM001, Rev. 2.
3.
Findings Within this area of the inspection, no deviations from commitment or unr-tved items were identified.
i D.
Exit Meeting An exit meeting was held on July 23, 1980, with the management and Authorized Inspeccion Agency representatives denoted in paragraph A above.
The inspec-tor summarized the scope and findings of the inspection and informed
]
management, that their identified failure to implement committed corrective actions, would result in issue of the report from the Regional Director.
The inspector also informed management that another NRC inspector would be assigned responsibility for performance of future inspections of the GC0 facility. Management acknowledged the statements of the inspectar and had no questions regarding the identified finding.
