Action en Previous Inscection Findinas 1.

(Closed)

Ceviation (Recor: No. 99900501/30-01) Microfilm (CA Record)

.of wo calculations were not legible.

The inscector verified the ccrrective actions and creventive measures ccmmitted in their letter of resconse dated December 9,1980, i.e.

legible attachments to calculatiens AFW-1 and AFW-3 were cotainec and re-microfilmed, an inspection for other illegible microfilm was conducted, an ICM ce-emchasizing the need for legibility of design documente was issued, and a new p'.*ocedure covering the screening me heds and criteria for microf11med documents was issuec.

2.

(Closed) Deviation (Recort No. 99900501/20-01) The Design Interface Centrcl Log was not being maintained in the Centrol Systems Design Gecuo as required.

The inscec:cr verified the corrective actions and ::reventive measures ccmmitted in their letters of rescense dated December 9,1980, and January 5,1981, i.e. the scecific entries missing from the centrol log were corrected, a survey was cencucted en all crojects and icen-tified deficiencies corrected,.nd an ICM was issued 50 all crojects where deficiencies were found re-emchasi:ing the recuirements for con-trol of design interface centrol icgs.

C.

Backcreund Verification of Technical Personnel 1.

Obiectives The objectives of this area of the ins::ection were to verify :nat measures have been established and are being effectively imolemented that assure:

- a.

The education and work excerience information contained in employee's job acplications. are being verified by the em-cloying organization; b.

There is ocjective, documentec/ records that attest to the emoloyee's education and exoerience.

2.

Method of Acccmolishment The precec. g cbjectives were acccmolished by an examination of the background verificaticn records maintained on six cermanent emoloyees and seven " job shco" employees, acclicable employment group ro-cedures, and a "Sumnary of Actions

'/erification of Contract Per-sonnel Qualifications" (Actions re: IE Circular 30-22).

3.

Findinas a.

There were no ncnconformacnes, unresolved, cr folicw uo items identified.

'b.

Written verification of education and ex erience is recuired for all new Secntel emolcyees.

If a res;cnse tc a verificatien request is not received in 30 days, follcw up recuests are sent until a rescense is received.

c.

There are generic staffing service agreements that have been awarced by Secntel Personnel in San Francisco for the use of all Secntel Divisions.

The Midland Project was fcund to be obtaining cerson-nel under six different generic staffing service agreements.

In additien, there are three " job shco" agreements that have been awarded by and for the use of the project.

d.

Sechtel's agreement with " job shco" organizations recuire that the organization certify that they have verified the emcloyees education and experience.

Secntel has conductec audits of these organizations to verify the validity of these cert'fications.

e.

An evaluation of "jcb shcocers" performance is made after Onree months of emolayment.

During this ceriod these cecaie are cer-forming tasks under the sucervision of permanent Bechtel employees.

O, Control of Cemcuter Procrams 1.

Ob jectives The cojectives of this area of the inscection were to determine tnat:

a.

Cemcuter programs have been develcaed, verifiec, ;ualified, and are being used in accordance with crecedures which have been cre-pared reviewed, arc accroved by authcrized management.

. b.

A computer program custodian has been designated and has the resconsibility for maintaining the security of the crogram, Each ccmcuter program that has been authorized for use has been c.

qualified, has an accreariate users manual, anc this manual (cr another manual) crevides a detailed descriction of the mathemati-cal mcdel(s), emoirical data (if any), assumptions used, and applicable references.

d.

The ccmouter crogram has been verified / qualified and that dccumen-tation exists which includes:

(1)

A description of the program version and cotion(s) vali-

dated, (2)

A detailed descriction of the tes: (benchmark) crcbiem(s),

including boundary conditions, mathematical model, and all key parameters.

(3)

A listing of the test (bencnmark) croclem incut data cnecks and a recrint of the crogram incu and outcut, er reference tc the lccation wnere tnis is stored.

(4)

The ccmcarison of solutions, evaluation of the crogram validity, and an analysis of any identified errors.

e.

Tecnnically qualified individuals have reviewec and accrevec the verification / qualification of each ccmcuter arcgram cricr to its use in safety related apolications.

f.

Revisions and modifications have been subjected to the same review and accroval as the original version of the program.

g.

Errors identified in ccmouter programs are ;rcmotly corrected and i

aparcoriately verified criar to use.

h.

Errors which could result in significant deficiencies in nuclear i

plant design are recor:ec to the NRC under the recuiraments cf 10 CFR Dar: 21, 10 CFR Part 50.55(e), and 10 CFR ?ar: 50, Accencix K, as acercoriate.

2.

Methed of Acccmolishment The creceding objectives were acccmclishec by 2n examination of the User and Theoretical Manual and '/erificatir scr: for ccmcuter cregrams NE 154, ME 499, TE 509, and TE 51.

In addition, tne inscector examined acclicable crecedures frem the Engineering Decar:-

ment Procedures Manual.

3.

Findings a.

There were no ncnconformance, unresolved, or follcw up items identified.

b.

Computer program NE 154 (CECAY) determines the amount of residual heat generated by light water reac:crs after shutdown.

It is used to generate decay heat generation rates for thermal design analysis, cerformance evaluation, fuel pool sizing, ultimate heat sink analysis, and con-tainment analysis.

c.

Ccmouter program ME 499 (LINE CRCP) ccmcutes :he pressure drop for incompressible, single chase ficw of licuids and gasses in a given section of pipe line using the Carcy equation.

The cregram also calculates the velocity head and the static head cue to a change in elevation.

d.

Cccouter program TE-509 (TAPCHANG) calculates bus voltage magnitudes and line ficws in an electric system for a sce-cified set of terminal or bus load conditions.

The solu-tion is obtained by the Gauss-Seicel methed using the bus admittance matrix.

e.

Ccmouter crogram TE 510 (NEWSHORT) is a shor; circuit cal-culation arcgram that can be used to determine the switch-gear rating of the auxiliary system.

The MVA methed of calculation is used.

E.

Exit Interview An exit interview was held with management recresentatives en April 3, 1981.
