SUBJECT: BULLETINS 79-02 AND 79-14. FOLLOW-UP INSPECTION REPORT 50-395/89-200

+

This letter transmits-the results of the follow-up inspection conducted by the

!

L

- Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR) to verify compliance with Inspection -

!

L

andEnforcementBulletins(IEB)79-02,"PipeSupport-Baseplate-DesignsUsing

Expansion Anchor Bolts," and 79-14, " Seismic' Analysis for As-Built Safety-

i

-Related Piping Systems." This inspection was conducted from November.27'.

.

!

through December l',1989 and December.11 through 15, 1989 by a team composed of-

NRR staff and consultants.

'

l,

In reviewing South Carolina Electric and Gas (SCE&G) Company's effort regarding

~

,

IEB 79-02, the teani discovered that the computer program-used to verify anchor

I

bolt and baseplate sizing had not properly; accounted for anchor boltystiffness.

'

Excluding this one issue, the inspection team was satisfied that the: anchor.

~

bolts and baseplates had been properly designed and' constructed. Thus, SCE8G

l

.;

had complied with the bulletin.

,

i

,

With respect to IEB 79-14, the inspection team was satisfied-that the design

drawings properly reflected the as-built configuration of.the plant and that

the piping analysis calculations were readily auditable. Thus, compliance

-l

to IEB 79-14'was demonstrated. However, the inspection team identified

inconsistent modeling techniques used by different piping analysis contractors,

l

unconservative piping analysis modeling practices, and unjustified engineering

assumptione

contains minor discrepancies that appeared to the inspection team to be.

isolated errors with minimal safety significance. The Appendix B discre-

pancies are listed for. completeness and they are expected'to be resolved

by SCE&G without the need for NRC inspection.
