1. Nonexistence of a valid traveler;

2. No record of actual QC inspection of safety-related hanger No. R3349.

Response

a) Corrective steps which will be taken and the results achieved:

Deficiency Report 1SD-9457-M was initiated and the disposition directed the preparation of a new traveler document package for the subject hanger and the rework of the welds in question.

The rework will be performed and documented in accordance with approved procedures. The re-work will be Quality Control inspected in ac-cordance with Construction Procedure QCP-VIII-200.

b) Corrective steps which will be taken to avoid further violations:

Personnel involved with the installation and inspection of HVAC duct supports shall be ap-propriately trained in the following procedures:

WP-VII-209, WP-VIII-200, CWP-504, QCP-VII-200, QCP-VII-204, QCP-VII-504 and QCP-VIII-200, c) Date when full compliance will be achieved:

Full compliance was achieved on April 16, 1982.

In addition to the aforementioned corrective action, several program enhancement activities have been or are being implemented. These activities are not corrective actions, per se, but are additional actions precipitated by the documented violations. A total of seventeen enhancement activities were im-plemented as a result of this and other related problems. Enhancement activites 1, 11, 15, 16, 17 and 18, described in References 1 and 2, specifically relate to the violation documented in the subject Inspection Report.
