O Appendix A NOTICE OF VIOLATION The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Docket No. 50-440 Company Docket No. 50-441 As a result of the inspection conducted < n January 21-23, 1981, and in accordance with the Interim Enforcement Po u v, 45 FR 66754 (October 7, 1980), the following violations were identified.
1.
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, requires that activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings, and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instruc-tions, procedures, or drawings.
PNPP PSAR Chapter 17, Section 17.1.5, requires that activities affecting quality of safety class structures, systems, and components be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, and drawings, and that these activities be accomplished in accordance with these documents.
Contrary to the above, the RIII inspector identified the following:
a.
No procedural requirements exist which specify the frequency of dry film thickness inspections required for unique steel shapes.
(i.e., pipe, hangers, channels, etc.)
b.
No procedural requirements exist which specify the frequency of wet film thickness inspections of coating material applied to concrete surfaces.
c.
The attachments to Metalweld QA and QC procedures are not con-trolled in accordance with QAP-006, Section 3.0.
d.
The base line reading on bare steel substrate has not been estab-lished and applied to. dry film thickness measurements as required by CEI Specification SP-64, through its endorsement of SSPC-PA2.
Metalweld personnel did not properly identify and centrol damaged, e.
and therefore nonconforming, Carbo Zine 11 containers in accord-ance with'the requirements of QAP-015.
f.
Calibration of field thermometers was performed at one point within their intended range of use, not three points as required by QA'-012.1 'Section 4.3.

One Metalweld QC ins r tor did not undergo an indoctrination and e
training session in specific project requirements prior to assign-ment to the Perry site, as required by QAP-002.4 1, Section 5.2.
h.
The qualification / certification records for one Meta) weld QC inspector indicates that he was certified Level I with less than the one month of on-the-job training required by QAP-002.4.1, Section 5.1.3.
This is a Severity Level V violation (Supplement II.E.)
2.
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XII, requires that measures shall be established to assure that tools, gages, instruments, and other measuring and testing devices used in activities affecting quality are properly controlled, calibrated, and adjusted at specified periods to maintain accuracy within necessary limits.
PNPP PSAR Chapter 17, Section 17.1.12, requires that measures be established to assure that tools, gages, instruments, and other measuring and testing devices used in activities affecting safety class structures, systems, and components be properly controlled, calibrated, and adjusted at specified periods to maintain accuracy within specified limits.
Contrary to the above, the RIII inspector identified the following:
a.
Microtest magnetic dry film thickness gage No. 273 was available for use in field inspection activities, having been previously damaged and not removed from service or tagged to control its use.
b.
The. calibration of standard thermometers No. 819 and 829 had expired and the calibration sticker affixed to each incorrectly specified the re-calibration date.
This is a Severity Level V violation (Supplement II.E.)
3.
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion II, requires that the quality assur-ance program shall provide for indoctrination and training of personnel
. performing activities affecting quality as necessary to assure that suitable ~ proficiency is achieved and maintained.
PNPP PSAR Chapter 17, Section 17.1.2, requires'that groups or individuals performing quality-related activities be adequately indoctrinated, trained, and qualifieduto perform designated responsibilities.
Appendix A Contrary to the above, based on interviews conducted with responsible Metalweld QC inspectors, it was concluded that those inspectors inter-viewed had not achieved the necessary level of competency to perform the broad range of tasks for which they are assigned responsibility as Level I ant Level II inspectors. This was evidenced by the inability of the inspectors to answer basic QA/QC questions which directly related to their.pecific assigned responsibilities.
This is a Severity Level V violation (Supplement II.E.)
