(0 pen) Infraction (461/80-02-03) - Timely corrective action to preclude

repetition of nonccaformances not being performed. The inspector reviewed

the following:

(1) 'NCR Analysis Summary dated August 1980 for June and July 1980.

Observation of Electrical Component Work Activities

'The RIII inspector observed installation and inspection work activities

,

at selected safety related valve operators for conformance to installa-

'

tion and inspection requirements.

Observation of work activities and' review of associated records indicate

that valve operators were installed, inspected, and maintained in accord-

ance with requirements including:

i

(1) Sargent and. Lundy drawing M-06-1073, Sheet 1, Revision S, " Low

PressuretCore Spray Piping".

(2) General Electric drawing B33-G001-795-E291, Sheet 1, Revision 0,

" Recirculation Loop Piping".

,

(3)

Installation specifications, QC installation procedures, and QC

inspection criteria.

QC surveillance, storage, maintenance, and inspection records reviewed

,

1

.showed initials and dates that work was performed, as well as inspected

'

by the QC inspector, through September 1980. Records inspected included

1

Form JV-459, " Record of Special Surveillance", and Form JV-512, " Storage

i

& Maintenance Instructions & Record". These forms document control of

valve operator quality, maintenance, testing, and inspection work,

'

including protection, operation of electric heaters, and frequency of

.

inspections. QC installation traveler Form JV-488 documents progress

]

of valve and operator installation, locations, hold points, and

inspections.

i

The specific 460 volt, .3 phase Limitorque electric valve operators

,

examined during this inspection were installed on Anchor Darling motor

'

operate'd gate valves. Valves IE21-F001 and IE21-F011 are located on

the Low Pressure Core Spray Piping in the Auxiliary Building at

elevation 707'.

Reactor Recirculation Suction Valve IB33-F023A and

' Reactor Recirculation Discharge Valve 1B33-F067A are mounted in the

l

Containment Building at elevation.712'.

No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.

Review of Procurement Records

The RIII inspector reviewed the QA receipt inspection and material

certification documentation packages for the following safety related

electric valve operators and pump motors for conformance to the

procurement, receiving, and quality requirements.

The procurement

document packages inspected appeared to be complete and included

equipment specifications, purchase orders, certificates of compliance,

certified test reports, applicable reports of seismic and environmental

qualifications, QC receipt inspection reports, checklists, corrective

action reports, and vendor audit and surveillance documents.

The equipment documented was Shutdown Service Water Pump motors

ISX01PAM, ISX01PBM, and ISX01PCM, and electric valve operators for

motor operated valves 1E21-F001, IE21-F011, 1E32-F006, IB33-F023A

and IB33-F067A.

No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified in this area.

Observation of Electrical Equipment

The RIII inspector observed safety related electric motors, stored in

the Level B warehouse, for conformance to receiving, storage, and

inspection requirements. The motors observed were the Shutdown Service

Water pump, 4000 volt motors ISX01PAM and ISX01PBM, and 460 volt motor

ISX01PCM manufactured by the Seimens-Allis Company.

The RIII inspector observed that adequate receiving, inspection, storage,

identification, and maintenance procedures were being documented and

accomplished by QC Storage and Maintenance Instructions and Record form

JV-512 and QC Receiving Inspection Report form JV-152 in accordance with

QC procedure BAP 2.3, Revision 7 and BAP 2.4, Revision 4.

Satisfactory

housekeeping, identification, and motor maintenance were observed.

No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.

4.

Review of Safety Related Cable Installation QA Procedures

The RIII inspector discussed safety related cable installation work

instructions and procedures with QA and QC personnel, and reviewed

cable installation QC Project Procedure BAP3.3.2. QA and QC personnel

stated that cable installation work instructions had not been released.

Further review in this area is planned for a future inspection.

1.

Weld Material Control

The inspector reviewed welding material control to determine that

purchase, acceptance, storage, and handling associated with steel

structures and supports are in accordance with the licensee / con-

tractor work and QA procedures, and applicable NRC, ASME, and/or

AWS Code requirements as follows:

Review of BTS 402, " Weld Control", Revision 14, dated March 7,

a.

1980.

b.

Visual observations made at weld material issue points No. 1, 2,

3, 4A and 4B.

The inspector spotchecked holdoven temperatures

and found them within specified limits. All coated and bare

electrodes were properly identified.

The inspector randomly

selected weld material lot numbers and verified traceability to

the respective material certifications.

c.

Review of Weld Material Issue Slips, Form BTS F-030.

d.

Twelve (12) welder identifications were taken from the weld rod

issue slips and verified to have been qualified to the appropriate

WPS.

These twelve (12) welders were verified to have been qualified

e.

at the time of the weldment performance.

No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified in this area

of the inspection.

2.

Review of Welding Procedure Specifications and QA Procedures for

Safety Related Steel Structures

The inspector reviewed welding procedure specifications (WPS) and

quality assurance procedures used by licensee / contractors for field

welding of steel structures and supports to determine that they have

been established, qualified, and controlled in accordance with NRC

requirements and SAR commitments, including the licensee's QA program

and ASME/AWS Code requirements, as applicable. The documents reviewed

are as follows:

a.

BAP 3.1.3, " Structural Steel Erection", Revision 3, dated December 7,

1979.

b.

BTS 402, " Weld Control".

c.

BTS 405, " Procedure Specification for Visual Inspection of Weldments".

d.

WPS for " Shielded Metal Arc Welding of Carbon Steels for Structural

Weldments in Accordance with AWS DI.1, BTS 499, WPS N-1-1-A-X",

Revision 6, dated April 15, 1980. This procedure is pre qualified

for unlimited thickness in carbon steels.

c.

WPS for " Shielded Metal Arc Welding of Carbon Steels Using 6309

for Structural Weldments in Accordance with AWS DI.1-72 (Revision

2.74)", Revision 1, dated July 3, 1978, WPS N-1-1-A (Special), with

associated procedure qualification records.

No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified in this area

of the inspection.

3.

Review of QA Records for Safety Related Structures

The inspector reviewed quality records relative to safety related steel

structures and support outside containment to ascertain whether these

records reflect work accomplishment consistent with NRC requirements

and SAR commitments as follows:

a.

Random selection of four (4) structural steel welds located in the

fuel building.

b.

Review of the associated travelers in item a. above.

These

travelers contained the QC inspection holdpoints and the struc-

tural steel identification.

However, the traveler did not

indicate the welder's identification and weld material could not

be traced to a specific weld as is required by BTS 402. This

item appears to be in noncompliance with Appendix B of 10 CFR 50

Criterion IX, PSAR commitments. This item is considered to be

an infraction (461/80-19-01).

Exit Interview

The inspectors met with licensee representatives (denoted under Persons

Contacted) at the conclusion of the inspection on September 19, 1980.

The inspectors summarized the scope and findings of the inspection. The

licensee acknowledged the information.
