licensee determined that the subject switches are not used at Marble Hill.
Sargent and Lundy will continue to monitor vendor documentation to ensure
that any possible future application of these switches are justified or
replaced with acceptable alternatives.
3. Evaluation of Items Reported Per 10 CFR 50.55(e)
(Closed) (546/81-05-EE; 547/81-05-EE) (Licensee designated number S 81-10):
Underrated Marathon Terminal Block in Limitorque Valve Motor Operators.
Licensee documents DSN 0724814000, DSN 0604815004, DSN 0611815016,
DSN 0727814005, DSN 0727814006, DSS 0805814000, DSN 0819814004,
DSN 0826814007, DSN 1130814004, DSN 1211814002, and DSN 0517825069
were reviewed. On July 24, 1981, the licensee notified Region III of
a potentially reportable deficiency regarding an underrated terminal
block which had been installed in several limitorque valve motor opera-
tors. The terminal block, Marathon 300 series, had originally been
rated for the specified service conditions of 600 volts and 30 amps,
but had been subsequently dorated to 300 volts and 30 amps. The licensee
submitted interim reports on August 24, 1981 and December 11, 1981. On
May 7, 1982, the licensee submitted a final report which stated that this
item is not reportable. Sargent and Lundy determined that the 480 volt
motor leads in these motor operated valves were only temporarily termi-
nated at the terminal blocks. These leads are normally connected directly
to field power cable when installed by the electrical contractor. There-
fore, no corrective action is required for the valve motor operators.
Sargent and Lundy has also surveyed Marble Hill project specifications
that identify Marathon 300 series blocks for their possible use by other
suppliers for applications greater than 300 volts and 30 amps. This
survey determined that safety related equipment suppliers used these
blocks for 120 volt control service, less than the revised lower ratings,
or did not use them at all. Equipment specifications are being revised
to eliminate the use of the subject block for greater than 300 volt and
30 amp service conditions.
4. Evaluation of Fire Prevention, Protection, and Suppression Programs
a. Portable Fire Extinguishers
The inspector toured the P-2 Warehouse, areas outside the containment
buildings, and the auxiliary building. Portable extinguishers were
, visually examined to determine if they were properly inspected, stored,
and maintained.
i
(1) P-2 Warehouse
All examined extinguishers were properly inspected, stored, and
maintained.
(2) Areas Outside the Containment Buildings
Three 150 lb Ansul wheeled extinguishers were examined. The inspec-
tion frequency could not be adequately determined due to weathered
I

.. .-
inspection tags. Protective plastic extinguisher covers were damaged
or missing. The licensee agreed to use plastic covers over inspection
tags, use indelible ink for inspection tag signatures, and replace
the protective covers on wheeled exterior extinguishers.
(3) Auxiliary Building
The 20 lb Ansul extinguishers were stored in specially marked re-
fuse containers. Most inspection tags were weathered and wet and
several extinguishers were not positioned at designated locations.
'
In some cases extinguishers were covered with cement, which obscured
operating instructions. Some storage containers had accumulated
a large volume of water. Some extinguishers were removed from their
designated storage containers so that the containers could be used
for other purposes. The licensee agreed to place plastic covers over
the inspection tags and to use indelible ink for inspection tag
signatures. The licensee will investigate alternate methods for
storage of extinguishers. It appears that an increased extinguisher
inspection frequency is warranted in construction areas.
b. Welding Operations
During the tour of the auxiliary building, the inspector witnessed
five welding operations without a proper fire watch involving the
following contractors and locations:
Contractor Level
Cherne Contracting Corporation 330'
Commonwealth-Lord JV, Pullman 346'
Sheet Metal (2 different locations)
Newberg-Marble Hill 401'
The accompanying fire prevention inspectors stopped the welding operations.
A meeting was held afterwards by the fire inspectors with contractor safety
representatives to discuss the fire watch concerns. The licensee agreed to
place more emphasis on fire watches during welding operations.
c. Fire Prevention, Protection and Suppression Procedures
ANSI N45.2.3-1973, Paragraph 3.2.3, Fire Protection and Prevention,
requires the following:
(1) Instructions for the protection from, and prevention of, damage
by fire shall be provided in accordance with NFPA National Fire
Codes, Volume 4, Building Construction Facilities (1973);
(2) Procedures or instructions for fire protection shall include pro-
visions for fighting fires involving the use of available community
fire departments, trained project brigades and others;
7
_ _ . _ __
'
, .
. . .-
(3) Procedures or instructions shall include plans for provision of
water supplies, hydrants, automatic sprinklers, access for fire
fighting, and distribution of extinguishers and fire fighting
equipment.
The inspector determined that the licensee did not have procedures
which implement the requirements of ANSI N45.2.3-1973, Paragraph 3.2.3.
The failure to implement procedures and instructions constitute noncom-
pliance with the requirements of Criterion V of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B
(546/82-11-01; 547/82-11-01). The licensee agreed to develop a
procedure implementing these requirements. '
5. Exit Interview "
. The inspector met with licensee representatives (denoted in Paragraph 1) -
and the NRC senior resident inspector en May 21, 1982. The inspector
summarized the scope and findings of the inspection. The licensee ac-
knowledged the findings.
