(Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power ) Plant, Units 1 and 2) ) ) ) JOINT INTERVENORS' SUPPLEMENT TO MOTION TO REOPEN THE RECORD ON THE ISSUE OF CONSTRUCTION QUALITY ASSURANCE The Joint Intervenors to the above-entitled proceeding hereby supplement their pending motion to reopen the record on the issue of construction quality assurance ("CQA") with_the . attached documents containing significant new evidence directly relevant to the issue before this Appeal Board. The_ documents, only recently received and reviewed by the Joint Intervenors and their consultant, are ' (1) a proposal for an independent audit of Pullman Power Products-(" Pullman"), one'of PGandE's two principal construction contractors at Diablo Canyon, to be conducted by. Nuclear Services Corporation ("NSC"); and (2) the reportlof the audit itself, conducted by NSC and covering the period from 1971 through September 1977. To the best of our knowledge, the attached audit report has never been disclosed .8309130368 830909 PDR ADOCK 05000275 O PDR ~ 3>s63
7 by PGandE to this Board _or to'the parties.1/ As' appears below and in the_ report itself, the audit establishes the-existence of widespread deficiencies in Pullman's QA program'from 1971 through September'1977, ~ deficiencies which apparently went uncorrected at'least during the seven-year. period covered by the~ audit. .In so doing, it-provides significant'new evidence that directly contt dicts the
- affidavits and testimony previously offered by.PGandE in opposition to.the-Joint Intervenors' and Governor Deukmejian's motions to reopen.' In support of PGandE's July 2, 1982 Response, for' example, Diablo Canyon' Station Construction Manager Bain attempted to. distinguish PGandE's construction QA l
_ program from its concededly' deficient design QA program as follows: i For the construction and installation of the building; equipment, and apparatus at Diablo Canyon, PGandE required that each contractor performing work at Diablo Canyon have a quality assurance program qualified to PGandE, E industry, and Nuclear. Regulatory Commission (Atomic Energy. Commission) quality assurance requirements. The contractor and any sub-tier 1/ Notably,.the audit was conducted in August and September 1977 just prior to the brief hearing on quality assurance before the. Licensing Board in mid-October 1977. 1 PGandE's witnesses made no mention of the adverse audit report 1 in their~ testimony to the Board.. Similarly, in none of their filings in opposition to the pending construction QA motions has PGandE mentioned the report or its findings. To the contrary, PGandE's witnesses have cited Pullman as a shining example of its construction contractors' adherence to QA requirements. See discussion infra. i -,-----r
contractor or supplier providing a service or material to be installed at Diablo Canyon adhered to these procedures in the performance of work at the site. (Bain Af fidavit, at 5.) Throughout the construction of DCPP well-defined QA/QC controls were required of the construction contractors. Strict requirements existed from the beginning and were enforced. (Id., at 14.) (Emphasis added.) More recently, at the " mini-hearing" on the motions in late July, PGandE witness Twiddy testified specifically with regard to Pullman's QA program: .1976 to recently -- we only had two major contractors, Pullman Power. Products and the H.P. Foley Company. The Pullman Power Product Company has an ASME N-stamp quality assurance program that's reviewed by the ASME survey team. They work more -- how shall I state this -- they just perform a better job when it comes tx) quality assurance. (Tr. 573-74.) Well, if you want to put it on a scale, I don't know how to answer your question, other than the fact that if I put a quality program on the scale of 1 to 10 and 8 is acceptable, I would say Pullman is a 10, and Foley is at 9, if that's clear enough. (Tr. 605.) (Emphasis added.) In striking contrast to PGandE's testimony, the new evidence offered herein as a supplement to the pending motions indicates a pervasive failure to adhere to the broad range of QA requirements in construction, suggesting the same lack of commitment to QA as has been established in design. The report is necessary, therefore, to set the record straight and cannot be ignored. As is evident from a reading of the report itself, _._
~ r e the deficiencies in Pullman's QA program were wideranging and substantial and included numerous violations of each of the applicable 10 C.F.R. Part 50, Appendix B criteria. The following summary listing of the principal deficiencies, with page citations to the audit report, is illustrative: -(a) lack of design interface and controls (pp. 7-8); (b) failure (1) to establish or describe a QA program in compliance with Appendix B or ANSI N45.2 or (2) to amend the contract to require such compliance (p. 10); (c) absence of management assessment (p. 10); (d) inadequate training and indoctrination of inspectors and workers (p. 10); (e) absence of design manual for preparation of isometrics and field drawings (p. 12); (f) absence of procedure to verify approved supplier (p. 13); (g) inadequate description of activities affecting quality (p. 14); (h) uncontrolled alteration of documents (e.g.., evidence of backdating of documents) (p. 16); (i) absence of procedures barring alteration of records (p. 16); (j) inadequate instructions for identification of Class I pipe supports (p. 20); (k) inadequate qualification and certification of inspection personnel (p. 21); -
(1) inadequate control of the welding process resulting in "no confidence that welding done prior to early 1974 was performed in accordance with welding specification, requirements" (pp. 22-25) (emphasis added); (m) failure to control special processes (i.e., heat trading and cleaning); (n) inadequate inspection processes (p. 27); (o) unaudir.able inspection process (p. 27); (p) inadequate control of testing (p. 29); (q) inadequate implementation of calibration program; (r) inadequate procedures for storage and handling (p. 32); (s) inadequate inspection procedures (e.g., " Field Process' Sheet") (p. 34); ( t) inadequate procedures for identifying nonconformances (p. 36); (u) lack of corrective action system (p. 37); (v) lack of procedures for filing, storing, and protecting quality assurance records (p. 38); (w) inadequate and ineffectual audits and procedures (p. 39). Based on these findings contained in Section IV of the report, NSC concluded as follows: Prior to early 1974,.there is little evidence available tx) verify the adequacy of the work performed. The available evidence indicates l,
_ ~ e that only a rudimentary quality control program existed and that control over the production ' organization was minimal, From early 1974 to late 1974, there is evidence available to verify the adequacy of the work performed. The available evidence. indicates that control was achieved of the materials control program and the welding control s -program. From late 1974 to the present, an increasing amount of documentation and records has been ..[j, generated to verify the adequacy of the work r" -performed..The available evidence demonstrates that an increasingly more stringent quality
- program has been placed in effect and
- increasingly greater control of the work offort has been achieved.
However, the present program and controls still do not meet 10 C.F.R. 50, Appendix B requirements in those areas as delineated in Section IV of the audit report. (P. 42) (Emphasis added.) By virtue of their breadth and number, these audit findings by an independent auditor establish a breakdown in the 4 Pullman QA program -- and, as the responsible applicant, in 1 PGandE's QA program as well -- throughout the period of peak plant construction, a breakdown analogous to that found by Roger 'Reedylin the area of design QA. It confirms, therefore, the evidence prov'iously offered by the Joint Intervenors and Governor Deukmejian in support of their motions suggesting that the' design QA' deficiencies conceded by PGandE extend to construction QA as well. Further, it undermines PGandE's confident assurances that its construction contractors strictly adhered to regulatory reuqirements and industry guidance. If, as PGandE's witness _Twiddy testified, Pullman's QA program is a "10 on a scale of 10," there is no basis upon which to conclude that any of the other construction contractors for Diablo Canyon had established and implemented an adequate QA program.,, _,, _. ~
o The new evidence submitted through this supplement provides further compelling evidence in support of the pending motions to reopen. Although the Joint Intervenors do not now know what corrective actions, if any, may have been taken by PGandE based on these audit findings, the report indicates that the period when the plant was substantially constructed was characterized not only by a breakdown in design QA practices but construction QA practices as well. Because this report and any PGandE response to it warrants close scrutiny by all parties and the Board, it demonstrates plainly the need for full evidentiary hearings to determine on the record the extent of QA noncompliance by Diablo Canyon construction contractors and the adequacy of any subsequent corrective action. The Joint Intervenors believe that the significance of this evidence is apparent from the audit report itself. If, however, the Board requests all parties to address.in greater detail the significance and implications of each of the cited deficiencies, the Joint Intervenors will certainly do so. '/// l /// l /// i I h _ _.~_
a o. For the reasons stated herein and in each of the documents previously filed in support of reopening the record, the Joint Intervenors respectfully submit that their motion to reopen-the record in this proceeding on the issue of construction quality assurance should be granted.

. Audit Reoort of Diablo Canyon Effort
Dear Mr. Cervin:
The audit, conducted under your cognizance, of the Diablo Canyon work af-fort has been~ccepleted and is documented in the attached audit report. 9 ~ Section VI,! Sume.ary," of the audit report contains the audit team's over- .(- Canyon. To facilitate corrective acticus, as much detail and es many_ all' evaluation and conclusions concerning the work performed at Diablo specifics as 'possible have been included in the audit report, which ac-counts for the length of the report. If any additional details are re-quired, do not hesitate to call.me.- It'is my understanding that _information' to confirm the disposition of the audit findings by Pullman Power Products and eventually by Pacific' Cas and Electric Company will be transmitted to me. As we discussed, a copy of the letter transmitting the audit report from Pullman Power Products to Pacific Gas and Electric Company will be sufficient to confirm your dispo-sition. The precise method of verifying Pacific Gas and Electric Company disposition was not defined, but you did commit to requesting that Pacific Cas and Electric' Company' send me a copy of any. official co=munications con-cerning their actions relative to the audit. I trust that you have been able to obtain Pacific Gas and Elect!ric Company's concurrence. , In behalf of the audit team, I would like.to express my appreciation to .all the Pullman Power Prcducts' personnel for their cooperation and to you for your personal attention and involvement in the audit. Very truly yours, S l Jack Weber Audit Team. Leader s Attachment l -e++ y-. ,_,,_,y.,4 .m.,_,- ,,,.,_,_,,,g,

F I 'L) 1. INTRODUCTION A. Audit Scooe and Purpose A quality assurance audit was performed on the Pullman Power Products work scope at the Diablo Canyon site. The purpose of the audit was to' evaluate the performance of the Pullman Power Products Diablo Canyon Site Organization with respect to the quality Program and contract requirements. The audit was performed under the cognizance of Mr. E. F. Gerwin, General Manager, quality Assurance, Pullman Power Products and, as such, was an independent, internal audit of the Pullman Power Products Diablo Canyon work scope. The scope of the audit included the following: (1) The organizational arrangement and the independence of the quality organization. ,. t. (2) The qualifications and certifications of p' rsonnel performing 'e.-." e the work'.' - (3) The Quality Assuranc'e Program, including the procedures and +~- .c..".:..9;.. - -- instructions by which the work-Is accompt ished. ~....e - t -~' ~,, * - - A ii k.~.: '. e.:+.j. - ~; 'h...

The audit was performed by identifying each system or program that is used to control the work effort and samp1Ing those systems or programs untII a conclusion could be reached concerning the adequacy or in-adequacy of that system or program. The Pullman Power Products effort at Diablo Canyon was initiated in 1971, based on the contractual agreement of May 1970 between Pullman Power Products and Pacific Gas and Electric Company.' During the time period of 1971 to the present, the requirements relative to the Pullm.an Power Products work scope have changed. The audi; scope and purpose were to evaluate the Pullman., Power Products work effort against the codes and standards in effect at the particular time that the work was being p'erformed. When requirements are issued, there is always some room for interpretati,ons concerning what.Is an { acceptable method of satisfying these requirements. During-the 1971 -[ to 1374 time peri,od, a number o'f ANSl;'st'a~nda'rifs~w~ere promu'1 gated to l..'k_[4. d.._. . define acceptable methods of satisfying 10. CFR 50,' Appendix B.

) Criterion 1. Organ'!zation 1. A current organizational chart does exict. 2. Procedures 1KFP-1 and KFPS-1 do describe the quality organization, as well as soes of the functional responsibilities of the quality orgar.ization. 3 The Field quality Assurance Organization has performed functions other than those described in KFP-1 and KFPS-1;'and some functions were outside the quality responsibility, i.e., writing and approving Engineering Specifications, performing welding engineering functions, approving engineering changes. These activities raise the question of the qualification of quality Assurance personnel to perform these functions and the problem of requiring the Fleid quality Assurance Organization to. audit its own performance. 4. Procedures'KFP-4, KFPS-4' KFP-6, KFPS-5, KFP-8, KFPS-7, KFP-9, and KFPS-8.do describe some of the responsibilities of the Field Engineering Organization. The responsibilities of the other Field _, Construction Organizations are not described, nor.are~ the full i responsibilities of the Field Engineering Organization described. + . r, 5., The descriptions of Individu.at position responsibilities are in-- ,,, adequate.. Some elements of' position' descriptions exist in the KFP and KFPS procedures, and Job descriptions exist for Inspection and ,e
- , Inspection technician positions. No position descriptions exist a
.. '..-for any of tne upper-level si te personnel. ~ 6. The description and controls of the Interfacial relationship between ..,, Pullman Power Products and Pacific Gas and Electric Company are Inadequate. The contract and some Engineering Specifications do describe some interfaces and mechanisms. However, for the greatest scope of the work effort, there is little to describe how the inter-(,,j face will be managed and controlled. Scme of the activities that 7-e _.,i- ..,v-.-.-- .--.------ - -- - - ----------- - -M
require interface control are hydrostatic testing, nonconformance reporting, meetings, work on pipe rupture restraints, work on hanscrs, document control, reporting of deficiencies, responses to Pacific Gas and Electric Company audits, interfaces with other PacificGasandElectricCompanyconchactorsthat impact Pullman Power Products work, etc. 7 The description and the controls of the interfacial relationship between Pullman Power Products Field Organization and the other Pullman Power Products organizations involved in the Diablo Canyon effort are inadequate. The Quality Assurance Manual does describe some quality interfaces between the Field and Corporate Offices. However, there are no requirements for periodic reporting from the Field' Quality Assurance Organization to the Corporate Quality Assurance Organization; there are no requirements for an upper-management. review of corrective action reports, nonconformance reports, and personnel qualifications; the interface between the Field Organization and the Paramount shop is not described; the Interface between-the Resident Construction Manager and the Corpo-rate Construction Hanager is not described; the interface between field Quality Assurance and Corporate quality Assurance is not described with respect to field purchases and Corporate quality Assurance auditing of those supplicrs. 8. The description and the controls of the interfacial relationship ~ between the Pullman Power Products Field Quality Assurance Organiza-tion and the other Pullman Power Products Field Organizations are inadequate. The quality Assurance Ma'nual and many of the Engineering Specifications describe interfaces and mechanisms. However, the interfaces relative to the construction and engineering efforts in regard to drawings approval; review of isometric, hangers, and restraint document packages; welders logs; and control of the weld- / ing process are not described.

) Criterion" 11. Procram 1. The contract between Pullman Power Products and Pacific Gas and Electric Company was signed in May 1970, prior to the enforcement of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B. The contract did contain certain quality aspects that were requirements for the Pullman Power Pro'ucts work d effort. W'rk was not initiated on the Diablo Canyon site until late o 1971, when Appendix B had become a requirement [ Appendix B was added to 10 CFR 50 on June 17. 1970, effective July 27,1970 (35 FR 10498), and amended September 11, 1971, effective October 11,1971 (36 FR 18301)]. Even though the contract was not amended by Pacific Gas and Electric Company to include Appendix B as a requirement, Pullman Power Products was obligated to conform to Appendix B requirements; and the total quality program was evaluated against Appendix B and ANSl N45 2. While a written Quality Assurance Program exists, the program does not meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B or ANSI N45 2. The specific Inadequacies of the program are described throughout w the findings. 2. There is no description of the overall quality Assurance Program. Special quality Assurance instructions are not d'escribed; the rela-T1-tionship and purposes of the KFPS, KFP, and ESD procedures are not described; the Pipe Support quality 'Assuranc'e'Hanual is not described; g-and the' relationship of the Pipe Support quality Assurance Manual to the balance of the quality Assurance Progr.am.is not documented. . t.,

._3 Procedures KFP-1 and KFPS-1 do prov'Jde a bro ~ad and generalized description of the scope and applicability of the quality Assurance Program. These procedures also reference the contract between ~ Pullman Power Products and Pacific Gas and Electric Company. However, the total scope and applicability of the quality Assurance Program are not adequately described. The efforts relative to pipe rupture restraints, receiving,and control of materials and components other than Pullman Power Products procured,and the work associated with anchor bolts are not adequately described. . ~, ,. - _, _. ~ _
~ 4. There is no evidence that upper management has performed scheduled reviews o'f nonconformance reports, personnel qualifications, and corrective actions. 5. There is evidence that upper management has performed reviews of audit repo.ts generated by Pullman Power Products and Pacific Gas and Electric Company. 6. The Indoctrination and training program requirems.nts for personnel involved in inspection activities are adequate. Procedures KFP-2, KFP-3, KFPS-2, and KFPS-3 require training of NDE personnel; Procedure ESD-237 specifies a training program for the NDE personnel; Procedure ESD-237 also describes a training program for Quality Assurance Field Inspectors. 7. The Indoctrination and training program requirements for personnel involved in quality-related activities are inadequate. There is no requirement for indoctrination and training of welders, foremen, engineering personrel, warehousing personnel, etc. 8. There is no evidence that personnel have been trained to assure their familiarity with the procedures they are responsible for implementing, except for welders, who have been trained and qualified to specific ._ weld procedures. + l-s: s O O a 11 -

Procedure KFPS-4 provides adequate control of the pipe support design effort. ~ 3 Procedure KFP-4 requires that the Chief Field Engineer and the Field o Quality Assurance / Quality Control Manag*er review field changes to j. Pacific Gas and Electric Company-approved drawings and specifications for ASME Code compliance. No written procedure for_this review exists. 4. A_ mechanism does exist for checking and reviewing Pullman Power . Products drawings. However, this mechanism is not described in a written procedure. Documentation of the implementation of this informal procedure does exist. ,og e ' f< 5 The isometrics and field fab,rication drawings do indicate the clas,ification of systems. 6. Procedure E50-205 does contain a classification of systems.and the requirements for each classification. 7. -The chang'es to. isometric drawings _ and field fabrication drawings are indicated on the documents, as well as the reason for the change. Procedure KFP-3 establishes a mechanism to permit tracking of all ~ i.e., the Chief Field Engineer is required to maintain revisions, a copy of all voide.: "rawings. 8.

~ r" Criterion V. Instructions. Prncedures, and Drawinns l L 4 ># 1. There is no requirement.that activitics affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, and drawings. 2. Many activities affecting quality are not described in procedures. Among those-activities are: hanger package review, pre-heating for welding, use of Note-0-Grams, use of Rejection Notices, and mainte-nance of Fleid Quality inspector Daily Logs. e 3 Many activitics affecting quality' are insufficiently described in procedures. Among those activities are: Isometric package review, post-welding heat treatment, nonconformance reporting, Ninety-Day Welders' Logs and Veckly qualified-Welders Lists, and auditing. 4. The present procedures are ge'nerally inadequate for providing direction to those performing the work. The procedures do not follow the flow of the work; caany procedures are very long (over 10 pages); insufficient information is given; important information .s is not provided or referenced in the procedure. O 6 e 9 e e j ,. ~
m Criterion VI. Document Control 1. Procedures KFP-9 and KFPS-8 are adequate for field drawing control, and Procedure ESD-253 is adequate for pipe-support drawing control. 2. Procedures KFP-17 and KFPS-15 are adequate for control of the KFP and KFPS procedures and are appropriately implemented. 3. There is no procedure for control of ESD procedures. 4. There is'no procedure for control of Special quality Assurance Instructions. 5 The Puliman Power Products review of completed packages relative to hangers and pipe restraints is not detailed in a procedure, nor is ESD-254 complete as to what.Is actually done for the isometric package. ( Procedure ESD-254 does describe some aspects of " Piping System Docu-mentation Review." 'a e.ce: The Pullman Power Products '1og, Drawing Control Index (KFP-9 and KFPS-8), 6. is maintained in a nonpermanent manner. The log is. filled out in pencil; and when the number of revisions exceeds the available space, the early revisions are erased to accommodate the new revision. , No mechanism assures that the Pacific Gas anU Electric Company 7. , drawings being used as the reference drawings are the latest-issued l revision. Audits are frequently performed to determine that Pullman Power Products has the latest Pacific Gas and Electric Company draw-. Ings. However, the audit mechanism is not sa'tisfactory when it is .the only mechanism.. 8. There is no Weld Rod Requisition for one of the welders who partici-pated in FV-345 of isometric 04-500-139 n. - + -,, -.., -
1 J .4" ..,e' ,l There is evidence that documents _have been backdated and changed to 9.- racet requirements withou't any substantiation of the information. e For isometric 2-14-47: The Process Sheet was changed to show the completion of FW-192 on April.10 and April 11, 1974,_ approx- ~ .imately 19 months after the work was done. e isometric 2-14-8: FV-1673 was performed to Revision 2 of the-isometric, which did not show FW-1673. Revision 3 of the iso- ~ 0 metric, which included the FW'-1673, was generated approximately one week after completion of the weld. It is therefore concluded that FV-1673 was performed without the normal controls of a Process Sheet, a weld procedure call-out, and a call-out of NDE ~ requirements. o Isometric 2-14-53: FW-247 was' completed February 20, 1975 Approximately December 1,1975,_ the visual acceptance was signed ( ~ ' off and backdated; and the Weld Rod Requisition was changed to-show that more than the original quantity of one had been burned. e isometric 2-14-59: FW-268 was completed February 5, 1975 On December 2,1975, the entry on the Process Sheet for removal of daos was signed off and backdated. There is no proof that the dams had been removed. e Isometric 2-26-417: FV-144, -145, -196, and.-197 were completed on May 14,,1976. The Weld Rod Requisition had been altered to However, the Veld Rod Requisit on shows that 14 rods i add FW-197 had _bcen burned,-which seems improbable for the. four welds that were supposedly welded.

There is no Veckly qualified-Velders List for that time period to substantiate that the welders were actually qualified.

The Ninety-Day Velders' Log has.been revised a number of times, and the detail has improved with each revision.

o s 's e Procedure KFPS-13 differs from KFP-15 in that it does not permit a six-month extension of welder qualifications if the welder has been act.Ively welding on some other welding process. Procedure KFPS-13 requires the welder to use the specific welding process within a three-month period or be requallfled. There is no evi-dence of adherence.to this requirement for pipe support welding. e Welder BF (W. Adair, 251) performed welding on FW-70, -72, -73, -76, -77, -78, -1008, -132, and -133 in Isom' etric package 21-7 and FW-88, -90, -91, -92, -134, -135, and -160s in isometric package 21-8. This welder was not qualified for the thickness range; and the welds wer'e reported on DRs 2535, 2538, 2539, and 2899 In'accordance with Pacific Gas and' Electric Company dis-3 position, some of the welds were radiographed and found accept-able; Welder BF was quallfled to the thickness range; and all. .j the welds in question were accepted. This disposition is not P O1 permitted by B31:1, 831.7, and ASME, Section IX, which all ' l specify that the welder must be qualified prior to making pro-4.a 5 duction welds. og t y

In l p,j examining Field Process Sheets,.It is obvious that the sampilng l E5 by the area inspectors was not performed. f% j .3 _ F ~ e Procedure ESD-219 requires periodic auditing by the Welding l Auditor. These audits were not performed until November 5, I 1973; and Pullman Power' Products was not in compliance with this procedure for approximately 23 months. i e Procedure ESD-219 requires monitoring stainless steel welds for l ferrite control., Heweve,r, the Severin Gauges were not on site until the beginning of 1973; and Pullman Power Products was not In compliance with this procedure for approximately 12 months. l - 4 L
e Hangers are act welded in accordance with Pacific Gas and Electric Company requirements. Hangers 2023-IV and 2039-2V are two examples of a number of hangers observed that are welded to the structural steel en the wrong side of the bracket. I e The interface of welding to other suppliers' parts and compo-nents is not clear. Welding is done to Join Westinghouse and Paramount parts and components. The necessity for addressing impact property requirements for t. hose weldments is not clear; in addition, the requirements for addressing impact property requirements for Pullman Power Products field welds are not clear. If Ir.ipact properties are necessary, the acceptability of each weld that has been repaired and subjected to more than i. one stress relief is indeterminate because of the time at tem-I k perature limitations within the qualified weld procedure. g e Some welders do not receive sufficient training.' Welders, i [,. fabricating the pipe rupture restraints within the contain-

different'. The welders who were already qualified to heavy WJ,1 wall pipe were not given additional training.on plate. i b p' t o There is no procedure for the preheating of weld Joints. 1 e The Initial results of the welding auditing (from November 5, 7 1973, to February 1974) indicate that the following problems existed:

4 k( Criterion X. Inspection x. 1. Procedures KFP-5, -8, and -14 thoroughly describe the interface between Pullman. Power Products and the. Authorized Inspector. 2. Pr'ocedures KFP-8 and KFPS-7 provide the requirements for the Field Process Sheet, which specifies inspection points and inspector sign-off. [ 3 The Field Process Sheet references procedures to which the work and the inspections w!!! be performed. l 4. The inspection procedures are detailed in Procedures ESD-206, -207, -208,--209, -210, -211, -215 -219, -225, -233, -234. -236, -241, -243, -244, -249, -250, -251, -255, -259, and -260. These procedures are, in general, broad descriptions.of the inspection process for l the total range of the work. scope and are adequate for that purpose. l 5. For all Inspection processes, there is no mechanism to provide the ~ i inspector the particular characteristic to be inspected; the partic-ular acceptance criteria; the particular' methods and equipment to be used; and, provisions, for recording results, other than ac:eptance for the particular Inspection.being made. ;The exceptions to this statement are ra.diography, where the reader sheet allows the recording I of results, and those procedures that specify the use of particular equipment _ (such as some of the ultrasonic procedures). The inspection process is generally not auditabl.e. The practice of 6 exhibiting an acceptance, signature only doesanot permit auditing to. determine if the Individual character!stics were examined, the corrc a criteria were used for acceptance, and the correct specific measuring devices were used. 7 A large number of welds in Unit 2, System 14 (FW-110 -111, and -112 in isometric package 2-14-31 are examples) were accepted for l '
visual examinntion and thereafter accepted based on surface NDE inspection (MT or PT). yisual examination of'those welds indicates that the surface is not suitable for the performance of surface NDE Inspection. For FV-Il0 (isometric package 2-14-31), the Proces's Sheet Indicates 8. ' that MT was performed; however, the inspection sheet for PT shows -that weld' number, and the inspection sheet for MT does not show that weld number. FV-83 (Isometric package 1-10-9) was repaired in accordance with 9.. The radiograph of FW-83 does not exhibit a valid Process Sheet. the required,R1 symbol, but R1 was Inked onto the radiograph. There is a surface defect that is questionable for acceptance to visual standards. Isometric package 1-03-1 has a step that requires a Pullman Power 10. ~ Products inspec~ tor sign-of f. This requirement was removed, and the step was accepted by a Pacific Gas and Electric Company employee. 1 I I i

T'here is no description of the responsibilities of Pacific Gas and Electric Company or of the Pul.lman Power Products / Pacific Gas and Electric Company interface relative to hydrostatic testing. 3 Procedure ESD-229 is not adequate for describing the flow and authorities relative to the Individual hydrostatic test procedures to be performed. 4. Hydr'os,tatic test' packages 7-2, 7-2A, 8-12, 9-12, 106, 106A, 1068, and 64 were examined and found acceptable. 5. The B31.l and 831.7 Codes require that all piping be leak-tested, (%dM where practicable. Pullman Power Products is only leak-testing Class A and B piping and that Class C piping specified by Pacific Gas and Electric Company. Classes D, E special, and E piping is not being leak-tested.

Therefore, there is no assurance of the accuracy of thermocouples used for pre-and post-welding heat treatment prior to June 16, 1976.

Procedures ESD-202, -215, -217, -222, -223, -240, -259, and -261 provide some information rclative to handling and storage of mate-rials, parts, and components for the total' scope of the Pullman P'ower Produ' ts ef'for t'. c , 2. Procedures for storage are general 1y inadequate. Procedures ESD-222, " Control Valves," and ESD-202, " Weld Material Withdrawal and Control," e are specific and adequate. Procedure ESD-215, " Visual Inspection," provides some guidance on storage. There is very little information relative to how specific items are to be stored or the delineation I of storage areas relative to the protection each area provides. 3 Procedure ESD-240 requires a segregated storage area for " scrap" material,and Procedure ESD-215 requires separate areas for material with Hold Tags and for P1 and P8 material separation. These proce-(. dures are adequate. However, they do not relay much information on h6w these segregated areas are to be established and maintained segregated. 4. There' are no procedures or manufacturers' instructions for the storage of flow Indicators and s^ trainers, which were stored in the Pullman Power Products storage area. 5 Handling procedures do not exist; and the only handling instructions are contained in ESD-222 and a number of other procedures, which con-tain a caution against the use of carbon steel in handling stainless steel. Procedurc ESD-239 has excellent detail as to the handling of Crinnell Snubbers during installation. However, Procedure ESD-259 was issued January 27, 1977; and there is no assurance that materials, parts, and components were properly ' handled during the period prior to January 27, 1977, when most of the-installation activitics were occurring.

6.[ The present storage areas were found to be in excellent condition, with areas clearly defined, materials supported on' adequate dunnage, and openings capped. 7 Procedures KFP-19, KFPS-17, and ESD-222 provide for an adequate storage surveillance program. Prior to October 31, 1973, the sur-veillance was performed using a checksheet that contained the stor-age requirements; af ter October 31, 1973, the checksheet was changed so that the storage requirements were not listed.

Insp'ection, Test, and Operating Status 1. The major mechanism that exhibits the status of the work is the Field Process Sheet. The Field Process Sheet provides for.perfor-mance status of some important fabrication steps and for inspection Howeve[, many important fabricati.:n steps are not Indicated status. by the Field Process Slieet: erection steps; cleaning prior to in-stallation of Insulation; and some critical welding steps as pre-e ntent in the heating, checking gas flows, and checking for 02 backing gas. The Field Process Sheet, as a mechanism to exhibit status, is considered inadequate. The inadequacy of the Field Proc- ~ ess Sheet is considered a major weakness in the Pullman Power Products h,
- system.
I' 2. The Hold Tag mechanism described in Procedure ESD-240 is an accept-able method of exhibiting status when a defective or discrepant [.. .1 condition is noted. ( ';' ?} 3 The method of using the Field Process Sheet, the Hold Tag, and the ,y N,3 Discrepancy Report is an acceptable mechanism to track the status [:j of a discrepent condition and the final disposition of that condi-s a D tion. However, the mechanism is not always utilized. e DMR-604, dated Febi uary 14, 1973, for Isometric package 1-03-1 b required rework and reinspection of 14. Class B welds. There b.e - Q p are no Field Process Sheets or inspection Reports to demonstrate V-that the work had been performed. i t ::. .);

ar. e The Fleid Process Sheet for FW-347 states that the weld was cut out in accordance with a specified DR. The referenced DR is not appilcable to cutting out FW-347 4. The method of indicating repair welds, as described in Procedures ESD-203 and -204, and the notation of repair welding on the Fleid Process Sheet are acceptable for showing repair status. However, FV-83 (Isometric Package 1-10-9) and FV-348 (Isometric Package 04-500-AV

5 Procedures KFP-8 and ESD-239 do present some'information relative to the release of the systems for hydrostatic testing. Procedure ESD-229 does contain a method of indicatincJ hydrostatic test status. These mechanisms are acceptable. Procedure ESD-229 should reference Procedure ESD-23'9 and require that the release be confirmed prior to Initiation of the testing. 9 6. Paragraph.8.12 of Procedure KFP-8 requires that the Fleid Process Sheet be maintained in the area where the line is being Installed. This requirement has been interpreted as having the Field Process Sheet in the area inspectors' station and not as being available ( *'s to the foremen an'd the people performing the work while the work r
- f. ' e.
~1 is in progress. This practice causes the Field Process Sheet to .;i become an inspection sign-off record, rather than a traveler that ( 1 713 u 9' presents necessary information to all individuals involved in the h performance of the work. 4-k r.% cd.. 7 Paragraph 7 2 of Procedur'e KFPS-7 requires that the foreman or pipe-5, ..j fitter procure.a' drawing and Process Sheet prior to starting work S$ and check off' operations as completed.

Nuclear Services Corporation Auditor f ' ' ' ; #- ', 1 (,q,:, The exit interview was initiated by Mr. Weber's summarizing of the purpose and scope of the audit, the basis against which the Pullman Power Products effort was measured, and the purpose of the exit interview. Additionally, a discussion was held on the fundamentals of auditing, i.e., an audit is a sampling technique, that enough samples are taken from each program or system to draw a conclusion, and that the conclusion is then applied to the adequacy of that program or system. Each audit finding was presented,.and discussions were held to clarify 'or refute the findings. Some findings were modified, based on additional evidence presented by Pullman Power Products..Upon completion of the

SUMMARY
The Pullman Power Products Diablo Canyon effort has extended from 1971 to the present. The findings Indicate that there w'ere three distinct periods as related to the quality of the work. These findings are: e Prior to early 1974, there is l'Ittle ividence available to verify the adequacy of the work performed. The avr.Ilable evidence indicates that only a rudimentary quality control. program existed and that con-trol over the production organization was minimal. e From early 1974 to late 1974, there is evidence available to verify the adequacy of the work performed. The available evidence indicates that control was achieved of the materials control program and the . welding. control program. e From late 1974 to the present, an increasing amount of documentation and records has been generated to verify the adequacy of the work performed. The available evidence demonstrates'that an increasingly (d
- s. ore stringent quality program has been placed into effect and in-creasingly greater control of the work effort has' been achieved.
C However, the present program and controls still do net meet 10 CFR 50, ,,{ Appendix B requirements in those areas as delineated in Section IV of j ,the. audit report.-
