SUBJECT:
SUMMARY
OF MEETING HELD ON APRIL 5 AND 6,1978, TO DISCUSS pg ao-THE SOUTH TEXAS PROJECT, UNIT 1 CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE T:w.c The subject meeting was held at the South Texas Project site approximately
$?$
100 miles southwest of Houston, Texas, with representatives of the 9m Houston Lighting and Power Company and the Brown and Root Company.
+Q m.

Background
During the past several months, members of the NRC Case Load Forecast Panel have visited several nuclear plant sites to assess the program 5
of construction. One objective of these meetings has been to develop a current estimate, by the staff members attending the meeting, of the
[;1; date on which the applicant will be ready to load fuel into the reactor.
f The South Texas Project visit was one of these scheduled series of
.S C3 meetings.
.o((
Summary s.,_,.
HL&P stated that the April report to the NRC would show approximately 34%
k completion on Unit 1, based on actual activity completed. The applicant's ph; predicted a reactor fuel load date which was May 1,1980.
In prepared
%J!f,,
remarks presented in an approximately three-hour presentation on April 5 fpys (see Enclosure 1), HL&P expressed their confidence that May 1,1980 was a py%
feasible and firm goal for the utility and its engineer / constructor, X;g.6 Brown and Root.
HL&P acknowledged that they were at this date approx-
. iq[.'
imately 6 months behi.id their schedule, due primarily to engineering delays
@4 b;S,d carly in the projer.c.
Y
~
A number of considerations were reported by HL&P in support of their y[.7l selection of the May 1, 1980 fuel load date:

(1) an anticipated continued favorable labor situation, as the entire construction site is non-union.
yQ.
em (2) a low probability of any delays to weather as climate ji$f provides for year-round outside construction activity.
Sfh NN (3) no significant procurement problems are expected, and many sm suppliers are willing to deliver early.
l:p, ;.
(4) HL&P has been able to accurately identify causes for delay
@f9 aj.
in engineering and construction, and have now seen the first
/,jn:
results of a schedule recovery program.
a.V MIJA
@F The NRC personnel at the meeting discussed the elements of the staff's p.-
kY prior work in developing a generalized nuclear plant construction schedule based on actual completion data from existing nuclear power plants. NRC staff considered the work remaining to be done at the' N.7 -
South Texas Project, and after a caucus on April 6, told the HL&P
,c;g [
representatives that the staff estimate to be used for the purposes 2,WM of staff resource allocation, was that the South Texas Project Unit 1 fuel load date would probably be between July and December 1981.
W
..e.
(.u; The staff's estimate was based primarily on the following consideraticns:
(1) the project is HL&P's first nuclear plant and the first 4.,
nuclear plant for which Brown & Root has engineering as W
well as construction responsibility.
34i (2) the project is currently six-months behind the official N.J. '
HL&P schedule, approximately 21/4 years after CP issuance
.9 and 2 years prior to the HL&P scheduled fuel load date.
?,7
.f i (3) the HL&P schedule will require a large number of workers of
/@%
different craft specialties inside containment during the
,~,Q.'-
$wtl-latter stages of' construction.
?p.E (4) a detailed startup and test schedule is not yet coordinated 2
with the overall computerized schedule.
k.sp[.
9?
(5) the time remaining, in the HL&P schedule to complete work in containment after placement of the steam system components, scheduled for December 1978.
45 M.5 (6) the fact that recent progress in schedule recovery by HL&P is based largely on heavy construction (earthwork, structural W
steel, etc) rather tham detailed mechanical and electrical ty, installation which is more difficult to manage.

Conclusions 3'.,..i.:*.
At the close of the meeting, staff members discussed their evaluation
- .d.,
f of the construction schedule with HL&P. All participants agreed that another meeting in September 1978 would be useful to reevaluate the i;**l staff conclusion based on the progress made to that date, consideration
',W~r. ; ~
of the effectiveness of the HL&P schedule recovery program, and
~,/j'f2 consideration of the more detailed scheduling of the overall project
't work which should have been completed during late sumer 1978.

OCT 8 1980 Docket No.:
50-389 APPLICANT:
Florida Power and Light Company FACILITY:
St. Lucie Plant, Unit 2
SUBJECT:
SUMMARY
OF SITE VISIT BY CASELOAD FORECAST PANEL A meeting was held at the St. Lucie site on September 30, and October 1 and 2, 1980, with representatives of the applicant and its contractor (EBASCO).
The purpose of the meeting was to assess the status of construction and to determine what would be the projected fuel load date for Unit 2 (a previous visit for this purpose was held in February 1980).
The meeting attendees are listed in Enclosure 1 and the agenda is shown on Enclosure 2.
The meeting is summarized as follows.
Summary On September 30, 1980, the applicant and EBASCO gave a presentation on the status of various activities in the construction program for St. Lucie Unit 2.
They stated that the design and engineering review are essentially complete (Unit 2 is a replicate of Unit 1) and all but five purchase orders have been placed. Sixty percent of the purchase orders have already been completed.
The applicant stated that construction is proceeding on a two shift basis (second shift has fewer workers) and that availability of skilled craft workers has not been a problem.
The percent completion for various bulk items were estimated as follows:
concrete placement, rebar and formwork - 87%; embedments - 88%; cable trays - 73%, conduit and large pipe - 52%; small pipe - 19%; and cables - 7%.
Overall construction completion was estimated at 53% as of the end of September 1980.
The applicant stated that 79 of the 156 pre-operational procedures required for core loading have been written and that 21 of these have been reviewed and approved for use.
The startup department is also working with the construction department to coordinate the schedule for system turnover for testing.
Currently, the containment building is on the critical path for construction completion.
The applicant estimates that the containment building has a negative slack of four weeks in meeting its projected fuel load date of October 1982.
TMI requirements are being factored into the design of the plant and the applicant does not find them impacting the construction schedule.
Also resolution of 50.55e occurrences have not impacted the schedule.
On the afternoon of September 30, 1980, we toured the site to witness the status of construction of Unit 2.
On the morning of October 1,1980, we toured Unit 1 (operating facility) for comparative purposes.
G f,/.
y b' V/ /( [ ) (h'
' OCT 8 1980 At the exit interview on the morning of October 2, 1980, we informed the applicant that, on the basis of our review of the current status and the status during February 1980 (previous site visit), we conc'iude that construction is still pro-ceeding at the average rate used in the NRC model for projecting construction completion.
Therefore we continue to project a fuel load date of December 1983 for St. Lucie Unit 2.
We added that we agree with the applicant's estimate of current completion and that work on pre-operational procedure preparation is proceeding at a rate which should not impact the overall schedule.
We also stated that we will continue to reassess the projected fuel load date for St. Lucie Unit 2 (and other plants) on a periodic basis as construction progresses.
