ENCLOSURE BELLEFONTE NUCLEAR PLANT UNITS 1 AND 2 ITT GRINNELL WELDED SUPPORTS NCR BLN BLP 8002 10 CFR 50.55(e)

SEVENTH INTERIM REPORT Description of Deficiency Detail sheets supplied by ITT Grinnell for assembly of pipe hangers and supports had discrepancies in weld designations. Certain supports with welds made on structural members that make angles less than 60 degrees and greater than 135 degrees were designated as fillet welds but should have been groove welds. On some groove welds which were specified, the parentheses around the dimension were omitted. This omission indicated depth or size of bevel when in fact ITT Grinnel meant effective throat.

Both of the above weld joint designations conflict with applicable AWS symbols for welding (AWS A2.4-76) and do not provide sufficient information for fabrication and inspection.

Interim Progress TVA's contractor, ITT Grinnell, is near completion of their revision of the affected hanger detail sheets. TVA's Division of Engineering Design is reviewing the detail sheets as Grinnell submits them and, when approved, is releasing them to the Division of Construction for inspection of fabricated welds.
