SUMM/.RY OF SECOto MEETING ON COfflRMED ITEMS AUGUST 2ti,1983 t
MIDLAPO IDCV PROGRAM A meeting was held on August 26,1983 at Bechtel's Ann Arbor, Michigan offices to obtain additional information related to Confirmed items identified in IDCVP Monthly Status Reports dated May 27,1983, July 15,1983, and August 16,1983.
The status of actions token in response to IDCVP Findings was discussed as well as programmatic options associated with the Ford Amendment. Attachment I identifies the ottendees of the meeting which included representatives from TERA, CPC, Bechtel, NRC, and B&W. Attochment 2 presents the agendo for the meeting.
i The meeting opened with on introduction of participants. The initial discussions focused on the schedule and logistics for providing additional documentation concerning outstanding items. TERA reiternted details of the IDCVP reporting process, differentiating between the type of information required in response to Confirmed items versus Findings or Findings resolution. It was pointed out that information associated with Confirmed items should generally be existing information that may not have been previously available to the IDCVP project team or, alternatively, brief clarification of existing information. Findings or Findings resolution may require the generation of new information. All parties agreed that information supporting Confirmed items and other existing informa-I tion would be transmitted to TERA within 10 days of request with on indication I
of the status (i.e., partial or complete) of the response relctive to specific Confirmed items. The schedule for Findings or Findings resolution would be worked out on a case-by-case basis. This agreement will provide on improved basis for IDCVP planning.
The status of outstanding Confirmed items and Findings, os well as new Confirmed items and Findings, was discussed next. The responsible lead TERA personnel described each item followed by a discussion by representatives of either CPC, Bechtel, or B&W as oppropriate.
Mr. Howard Levin, TERA, I
4 Mr. Lou Gibson, CPC, Mr. Jerry Clements, Bechtel, and Mr. Jim Agor, B&W, coordinated the discussions for their respective organizations.
The following descriptions, by item, highlight important issues discussed and any course of oction identified during the meeting.
3201-008-C-005 This item oddresses a potential generic issue related to conflicting dato on AFW system design parameters associated with Confirmed items C-017, C-018, C-020, C-027, and C-028. CPC pointed out that apparently conflicting design criterio may,in fact, be valid depending upon how these criteria were utilized in specific design calculations /evoluotions. It follows that what may appear to be a bounding assumption in one scenario mcy not be bounding in another, particularly if applied out of context (i.e., a conservative assumption in one calculation may not be the most conservative in another). They further indicated that in certain circumstances the Midland plant may be designed to a specific set of criteria, yet evoluoted against other criteria such as NRC Branch Technical Positions.
TERA questioned the process by which the FSAR was checked and cross-checked within Bechtel groups and between groups. Bechtel described the procedure.
Bechtel committed to provide clarification in conjunction with their response to Confirmed items C-017, C-018, C-020, C-027, and C-028. TERA will review this information and also selectively evoluote FSAR changes.
3201-008-C-017 B&W indicated that the AFW flow rates documented in B&W document BAW 1612, Rev.1, do not opply to Midland. Midiond AFW flow requirements are established in B&W document 32-0525-00, January 27,1974.
A letter and supporting evoluotion from Agar, B&W, to Gibson, CPC, dated August 25,1983 oddresses the receptobility of the 850 gpm AFW flow requirement. TERA will review this reference. Bechtel will provide further clarification and document olong with a response to C-005.
3201-008-C-018 This item questions which decay heat curve the Midland project is committed to meeting (i.e., B&W curve or BTP APCSB-9.2).
Bechtel indicated that SAR Change Notice No. 4067 will clarify any potential misinterpretation associated with the design bases for the decay heat food. B&W indicated that the Midland design was based upon a B&W decoy heat curve documented in B&W manual 18KI, December 3,1969. In the August 25,1983 letter, a comparison is made to BTP APCSB-9.2 criterio. TERA will review the SCN ond the August 25,1983 letter. Bechtel will provide further clarificotton and document along with a response to C-005.
3201-008-C-020 Bechtel will provide further clarification along with a response to C-005.
3201-008-C-027 Bechtel indicated that SAR Change Notice No. 4067 clarifies the Midland design basis to be 2552 MWt. TERA will review this SCN.
3201-008-C-028 it was noted that this item primarily relates to the consistency between design parameters.
The impact on the reoctor coolant system components was discussed and generally agreed by all porties to be insignificant. Bechtel and CPC indicated that if service water was used as a source of AFW on evoluotion would follow including on evoluotion of the impact of low water temperature, as appropriate. Bechtel will provide further clarification and document this along with a response to C-005.
3201-008-C-025 CPC indicated that a DCAR was pending which simplifies the method by which on operator takes action to invert FOGG. Bob Homm, CPC and Brent Brooks, 3
B&W were identified as contacts on this is=ue. CPC will send TERA the DCAR and TERA will initiate further review to evoluote revised direction being taken with respect to FOGG and ATOG.
3201-008-C-031 i
Bechtel indicated that they had completed octions necessary to correct deficien-cies noted with Findings F-032 thru -036 ond that they would document these formally. TERA indicated that review was continuing to assess the process by which field changes are reconciled with the design.
3201-008-C-037 TERA indicated that this specific issue would be considered resolved in view of FSAR revision 47 which corrects the noted inconsistency. In conjunction with continuing efforts related to C-005, TERA will selectively evoluote FSAR changes.
f 3201-008-C-038 Bechtel indicated that the AFW pump minimum flow volve did not have to be powered from battery backed power because recirculation through the line was not required during the assumed 2-hour blackout period. Bechtel has received a telex from the pump vendor oftesting to the pumps performance of a minimum flow of 100 gpm. Bechtel will secure backup for this ascertion and transmit it to TERA for review.
3201-008-C-022 Bechtel indicated that the steam generator level control system performance would be tested during the startup test procedures. TERA questioned whether the full performance range under potential varying plant conditions could be simulated during these tests and if analyses might be required to supplement the startup testing. CPC indicated that such testing is considered sufficient to demonstrate the adequacy of the system. Bechtel described a Foxboro Shop test l
4
of the control system which they witnessed. Foxboro initiated this test even though it was not required by spec due to the complexity of the control leop.
CPC will transmit the requisite startup test procedure for TERA's review.
3201-008-C-048 Bechtel is currently pursuing documentation from the vendor documenting the equipment capability to withstand a 1200F maximum temperature.
They indicated that the 1200F has been required by specification. Bechtel will provide the documentation for TERA's review when received.
3201-008-F-012 MCAR 68 was initiated in June oddressing this Finding. A final report was completed on August 15,1983 which documents both specific and generic actions taken for resolution. TERA will review this information.
3201-008-F-036 Bechtel ocknowledged that due to inattention to detail certain dir.nsional errors on drawings do exist where portions of these drawings have been modified due to field changes. The Plant Design group has reviewed 341 FCRs against isometric drawings and has found dimensional discrepancies associated with 9 FCRs. Accordingly 7 isometric drawings will be revised. Bechtel pointed out that offer the piping is installed, dimensional discrepancies to the building centerlines have little impact.
Bechtel will summarize the results of their evoluotion in a letter to CPC.
TERA will review this information when available.
l 3201-008-C-047, F-045, F-046 TERA indicated that the two Findings relate to specific discrepancies noted between vendor recommended storage and maintenance requirements and project procedures and octions. The Confirmed item was generated later offer several similar instances were noted by the ICV project team, potentio!!y pointing to a 5
more generic issue. CPC and Bechtel ocknowledged the situation presented by these OCRs and have created a Task Force whose charter will be to reconcile manufacturer and project requirements, status the current situation and see that reconciled storage and maintenance procedures are followed in the future.
TERA will review the Task Forces' charter and selectively evoluote the implementation of their activities. MPGAD representatives indicated that they had completed on audit in this area and would forward their report to TERA for review.
Programmatic options ossociated with the Ford Amendment were discussed.
CPC described the options that were identified during on August 5,1983 public meeting in Sethesda. The NRC representatives questioned salient features of each of the identified options. A specific conclusion was not reached on this issue. The NRC representatives indicated that future discussion would take place offer they had consulted with their monogement.
A general discussion was held relative to the interface between the CCP and ICV programs. A principal issue is the extent of construction verification progress that the ICV con ottoin in view of the status of project completion and the fact that the CCP does not have full opproval by NRC. TERA indicated that in view of the fact that the CCP must be considered the primary construction vehicle, that independent verification should not take place until the CCP has "QC'ed" portions of work. It was agreed that proceeding on this basis was feasible verses waiting until each of the three IDCVP systems were turned over in whole. While tiw proposed ICV opprooch hos sched.lar advantages, certain efficiency and resource tradeoffs are apparent. These will be the subject of future discussions.
The meeting was adjourned.
