' Manufacturing Status Review
+
The following information pertaining to the manufacturing status of valves being supplied to WPPSS
- WNP 3 and 5 was obtained during this inspection.
There are 120 valves on order of which 27 for WNP 3 and 1 for WNP 5 have been shipped.
All carbon steel valves are complete.
The stainless steel valve bodies are procured from Breda Fuchine in a fully certificated condition.
Approxi-mately 50 valve bodies remain to be shipped from Breda.
Nearly all manu-facturing of valve internals is complete, with these items being stored prior to assembly.
The final shipping schedule could not be ascertained.
C.
Action on Previous Inspection Findings 1.
(Closed) Deviation, Item A (Inspection Report No. 80-02):
This item dealt with certain Manufacturing Orders (MO) not providing all infof,-
mation to enable the gompany to satisfactorily control shop production; e.g., use of design concessions not specified on M0s, incorrect drawing revisions listed on M0s, and certain drawings not specifying radii dimensions.
Hopkinsons Ltd. (HL) has implemented their cnmmitted corrective actions, in that a review of M0s and applicable drawings showed the correct revision numbers, and, all drawings not specifying radii dimen-sions have been corrected.
In addition, there was no evidence to show further use of design concessions in a manner for which they were not intended.
2.
(Closed) Deviation, Item ho. B (Inspection Report No. 80-02):
This item dealt with certain nonconforming items not being identified as nonconforming through the use of Hold Tags or other means.
y L
v 3
HL implemented their committed corrective action, in that a review of open and closed nonconformance reports showed, that parts for which disposition had not been completed were tagged as nonconforming and, that the documentation for parts on which disposition was com-pleted, identified the nonconformance report numbers.
3.
(Closed) Deviation, Item C (Inspection Report No. 80-02):
This item dealt with items being moved to the next operation without the preceding operation being signed off.
HL implemented their committed corrective action, in that?a review of manufacturing orders for parts in the manufacturing area revealed that all preceding operations had been signed off.
4.
(Closed) Follow-up Inspection Item, Details Section, paragraph B.7 (Inspection Report 80-02):
This item dealt with lack of documented evidence to support that an analytical avfi" Scion is being made of quality trends or the reasons for nonconformances.
HL has conductcd meetings of the Quality Corrective Action Committee and a review of nonconformances has taken place, with the results being documented to reflect the frequency and categories of the nonconfor-mances.
5.
(Closed) Follow-up Inspection Item, Details Section, paragraph B.10 (Inspection Report 80-02):
This item dealt with formalizing a system for monitoring foundry repair welding activities.
Procedure N6.-1, " Welding Quality Assurance," addresses the requirements for monitoring repair welding activities.
The effectiveness relative to the implementation of the procedure could not be asc'ertained, in that welding activity, since January,1981, has been at a.'irtual standstill.
The 24 carbon steel valve bodies for WPPSS-WNP 3 and WNP 5, which are cast by HL, have been completed.
The 96 stainless steel valve. bodies for WPPSS 3 and 5 are procured by HL from Breda Fuchine in a fully certificated condition.
There are approximate 1f 50 valve body castings remaining to be shipped from Breda Fucnine.
In addition, with very few exceptions, all components requirec for valve assembly have been completed and are in stores.
