i Mr. D. L. Quamme May 17, 1984 Consumers Power Company Midland Nuclear Plant J.0. No. 14509 3500 East Miller Road SWM-119 Midland, MI 48640 Docket No. 50-329/330 CIO Tracked Action Item 068 Construction Implementation Overview Midland Nuclear Power Plant

Reference:

CPCo Transmittal No. CSC-7698, dated May 2, 1984 Your partial response to CIO Item 068 has been evaluated and is unacceptable for the following reasons:

Paragraph 4 of CIO Item 068 stated that the "B&W QA Program describes the ASME code edition and addenda to be followed, as ASME Section III, Division 1,

1971 Edition through Summer 1973 Addenda."

This conclusion is based on Specification No. 7220-M-1A(Q), Paragraph 4.0.

Additionally, in a meeting between BPCo, CPCo, and B&W, personnel responses stated that for NF supports ASME Section III, Division 1,

1971 Edition through Summer 1973 Addenda was the code and addenda being implemented.

It should be noted that the 1974 Edition of the code (ASME Section III, Subsection NF) requires NDE inspection personnel performing visual inspections on NF component support welds to be certified to SNT-TC-1A.

This requirement is not contained in earlier editions of the code. The B&W QA Program does not include a visual inspection NDE procedure for NF component support welds.

Based on our evaluation of your response we are requesting CPCo to advise CIO of the cause, resolution, and corrective / preventative action for the cited condition.
