{{#Wiki_filter:- -~ o 6 S ( Appendix A NOTICE OF VIOLATION ~ Consusers Power Docket 5o. 50-329 4 i Company Docket No. 50-330 Based on the results of an NRC investigation conducted on Dece=ber 11-13, 18-20, 1978, and January 4-5, 9-11, 22-25, 1979, it appears, that certain of your activities were not conducted in full compliance with NRC require =ents as noted below. These items are infractions, j 1.. 10 CFR 50, Appendix B Criterion III requires, in part, that measures shall be established and executed to assure that regula-tory requirements and the design basis as specified in the license application for structures are correctly translated into specifi-cations, drawings, procedures and instructions. Also, it provides that measures shall be established for the identification and control of design interfaces and for coordinates among partici-pacing design organizations. --* CPCo Topical Report CPC-1-A policy No. 3 Section 3.4 states, in part, "the assigned lead design group or organization (i.e., the NSSS supflier, A&E, supplier or CPCo) assure that designs ar.d materials are s'uitable and that they co= ply with design criteria t and regulatory requirements." 5 /. 8406070303 840517 PDR FOIA RICE 84-96 PDR

~. d i .m' CPCo is cocsitted to aSI N45.2 (1971), Section 4.1, which states, 'in part, " measures shall be established and docu:ented to assure that the applicable specified design requirements, such as a design basis, regulatory requirements... are correctly translated isto specifi-cations, drawings, procedures, or instructiens." Contrary to the above, measures did not assure that design basis were included in drawings and specifications nor did they previde for the identification and control of design interfaces. As a result, several inconsistencies were identified in the license application ' and in other design basis documents. Specific exa=ples are set ) forth below: t a. Construction Drawing C-45 (Class I fill material areas) ./ specifies the foundation material for Class I structures to be Zone 2 material, defined as any caterial free of hu:us, organic or other deleterious. material with no restrictions or gradation while TSAR Tables 2.5-9 and 2.5-14, indicate the foundation material for support of Class I structures to be controlled compacted cohesive (clay) material. i 4 8 4 \\' / 9 e e 4 .,n.-

g f g g g y Appendix A. 1 b. The FSAR is internally inconsistent in that FSAR Figure 2.5-48 indicates settlenent of the Diesel Generator Building to be l on the order of 3" while FSAR Section 3.8.5.5 (structural acceptance criteria) indicates settlenents on shallow spread footings founded on co=pacted fill to be on the order of 1/2" or less. The Diesel Generator Building is supported by a 7 continuous shallow spread footing. I l I c. The ' design'settlenent calculations for the diesel generator and borated water storage tanks were perforned on the assunption of uniform mat foundations while these foundations were designed and constructed as spread footing foundations. ) / d. The settlement calculations for the Diesel Generator Building indicate a load intensity of,3000 PSF while the FSAR, Figure 2.5-47, shows a load intensity of 4000 PSF, as actually I constructed. t The settlement calculati'ons for the diesel generator building -. a. 3 were based on an index of compressibility of the plant fill i bet 1[eenelevations603and634of0.001. These settler, cat I I b a + l

,c. i ~'5 g ] values were shown in TSAR Figure 2.5-48. However, ?SAR, Table 2.5-l6', indicates an index of co:pressibility of the same plant fill to be 0.003. f. PSAR, Amendment 3 indicated that if filling and backfilling operations are discontinued during periods of cold weather,. all frozen soil would be re=oved or reco=pacted prior to the resumption of operations. Bechtel. specification C-210 does not specifically include instruction's for removal of frozen / thawed cc pacted nacerial upon resu=ption of votk.after winter i periods. N g. PSAR Amendment 3 indicates that cohesionless soil (sand) would be compacted to 85% relative density according to ASTM D-2049. / . However, Bechtel specification C-210, Section 13.7.2 required 1 cohesionless soil to be compacted to not less than 80% relative density. t i 4 2. 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V requires, in part, that activities ) affecting quality shall be prescribed and accomplished in accordance + with documented instructions, procedures or drawings. s' C?Co Topical Report CPC-1-A Policy No. 5, Section 1.0 states, in . part, thatg " Instructions for controlling and performing activities ( 'N N_/ affecting quality of equipment or operation during design, construction u and operations phase of the nuclear power plant such as procura:ent. 8 O y -,m, s

.J g Appendix A s. ~. . manufacturing, construction, installation, inspection, testing ... are docu=ented in instruction, procedures, sepcifications ... these docu=ents provide qualitative and quantitive acceptance criteria for determining important activities have been satisfactorily accomplished. ~ 0?Co is conmitted to ANSI N45.2 (1971), Section 6 which states, in " activities af fecting quality shall' be prescribed by documented

part, instructions,. procedures, or drawings, of a type appropriate to the 4

circumstances and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures or drawings." (w)o 1 ' Contrary to the above, instructions provided to field --e a. /' construction for substituting lean concrete for Zone 2 material did not addrms the differing foundation properties which would result in differential settle ent of'the Diesel Generator Building.- I e i b. Also, contrary to the above, certain activites were not accom-plished according to instruction and procedures, in that: l (1) The compaction criteria used for fill material was 20,000 I f t-lbs (Bechtel modified proctor test) rather than a

v l

~.--c-

_ ~ -~ m... l ,.,, 3

  • compactive energy of 56,000 ft-lbs as specified in 3echtel gu Specification C-210, Section 13.7.

1 (2) Soils activites were not accomplished under the continuous supervision of a qualified soils engineer who would perform in-place density tests in the compacted fill to verify that all =atarials are placed and ec=pacted in i \\ accordance with specification criteria. This is required - by Bechtel Specification C-501 as well as ?SAR, A=end-a ment 3 (Dames and Moore Report, page 16). - 3." 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion X requires, in Part, that a pro' gram t for inspection of activites affecting quality shall be establi,shed and i executed to verify conformance with the documented instruction, proce- '/ dures and drawings for accomplishing the activit'y. i 1 1 CPCo Topical Report CPC-1-A Policy No.10, Section 3.1, states, in j part, that " work activities are accomplished according to approved l procedures or instructions which include inspection hold points 4 I i beyond which work does not proceed until the inspection is complete i i - or written consent for bypassing the inspection has been received t i from the, organization authorized to perform the inspections." 2 4 1 0 e () 4 s .3 -,.---w-

t t 1 1 s Appendix A, CPCo is coc=itted to ANSI K45.2 (1971), which states, in part, '!A program for inspection of activities affecting quality shall be established and executed by or for the organi:ation perfocuing the activity to verify confor=ance to the documented instructions, procedures, and drawings for acco=plishing the activity." Contrary to the above, Quality Control Instruction C-1.02 the program for inspection of ccepsdeed backfill issued on October 18, 1976, did not ~ provide for inspection hold points to verify that soil work was satisfactorily acco:plished according to docunenced instructions. 1 ( 4.- 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI requires, in part, that measures shall be established to assure that conditions adverse to quality' such as failures, deficiencies, defective material and nonconfornances are promptly identified and corrected. In case of significant I-conditions adverse to quality, measures shall assure that corrective action is taken to preclude repetition. CPCo Topical Report CpC-1-A Policy No. 16, Section 1.0 states,_in part, " corrective action is that action taken to correct and preclude f recurrence of significant conditions adverse to the quality of.itens ~ or operations. Corrective action includes an evaluation of the \\ _,/

,' g 's N5 / conditions that led to a nonconfor=ance, that disposition of the nonconfor=ance and co=pletions of the actions necessary to prevent or reduce the possibility of recurrence." Contrary to the above, measures did not assure that soils conditions of adverse quality were promptly corrected to preclude repetition. For example: a. As of January 25, 1979, moisture control. in fill =aterial had not been established nor adequate direction given to i=plement this specification require =ent. The finding that the field was not performing moisture control tasts as / required by specification C-210 was identified in Quality ( / Action Request SD-40, dated July 22, 1977. ,s/' b. Corrective action regarding nonconfor=ance reports related to plant fill was insufficient or inadequate to preclude repeti-tion as evidenced by repeated deviations from specification requirements. For example, nonconfor=ance reports N,o. CPCo i QF-29, QF-52, QF-68, QF-147, QF-174, 'QF-172 and QF-199 ~ ~~~ contain numerous examples of repeated nonconfornances in the same, areas of plant fill construction. S e / T V ?

.e i Professional Qualifications ' and Experience Joseph D. Kane f PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE SUPHARY: l 1975 to Present In NRC Division of Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering Section, Mr. Kane has specialized in soil mechanics and j foundation engineering. Experiences in this position have included the following: a. Evaluation of the foundation adequacy of proposed sites for nuclear facilities with respect to design and operational safety. This work has included evaluation of geotechnical, soils and rock mechanics, foundation and earthquake engineering related aspects. i The results of this review effort are summarized in a safety evaluation report for each of the proposed facilities which have included nuclear power plants, nuclear fuel reprocessing plants and uranium mill tailings waste systems. 4 b. Serving as a technical adviser for soil and foundation j [_' engineering related aspects in the development of j ( regulatory guides, acceptance and perfonnance criteria 1 that are intended to assure construction and l operational safety of nuclear facilities. c. Serving as a technical representative for the Office i of Nuclear Reactor Regulation:on,the_NRC Advisory Group concerned _with:. federal-dam-saf.ety. d. Serving as an instructor for the Office of State Programs in the training of state personnel who are responsible for construction 2nd operational- -~- i inspections of-uranium mill tailings embankment i retention systems. l 1963 to 1975 During this period Mr. Kane was employed with the U.S. l Anny Corps of Engineers, Philadelphia District and i attained the position Chief Soils Design Section. l Foundations and Materials Branch, in 1973. Professional experiences with the Corps of Engineers have included the following: a. The embankment and foundation design of four large multi-purpose earth and rockfill dams with appurtenant structures (spillways, inlet and outlet structures. control towers, flood protection facilities, etc.). ( Responsibilities ranged from the initial planning of v l

The data and information requasted in paragraphs 1 thru 5 above is needed ** to verify the applicant's computations and conclusions and to make any needed computations for the dewatering analysis, the seismic analysis and the settlement analysis. 7. A need exists for additional borings, since random exploratory borings throughout the plant site h,*va revealed pockets of soft clay subject to settlement and or consolidation and loose sands subject to liquefaction. A need also exists to check the results of the proposed remedial fueasures of surcharge loading at the Diesel Generator Building and the dewatering plan. s. In the ense of the Diesel Generator Building, check borings 1:ust be made in the vicinity of borings which identified low "N* values in the clay and sand fill.

Where piling or caissons are propose to underpin t Phervice ater Building and Auxiliary Building - feed water valve pits which are located on fill, the load bearing capacity of the bearing strata must be determined. The capability to resist lateral shearing stresses that could be induced in low "N" value soil subjected to seismic action must also be determined. The same tests required for soil samples obtained from the new borings at the Diesel Generator Building shall also be made on soil samples from new borings for chaise buildings. c. The questionable site area fill may have a counterpart in the cooling pond embankment which was constructed contemporaneously with the site fill. It is requested that exploratory continuous drive borings be taken at a number of points along the north and east embankments, omitting the slurry trench cutoff areas which are positively sealed. The approximate boring locations are as indicated on the attached map of the cooling pond. Upon completion of drive boring a second undistrubed boring shall be made adjacent oc the disturbed boring to sample cohesive soils. The tests on the soil samples obtained from the borings in tp,egbankments shall include the following g tests, consolidated + drained;tri xial shear tests, (cohesive samples) Atterberg limits and all soils classified t cording to the Unified Soil Classification System. The drive borings sk . be continously sampled using a standard split spoon sampler. The hole shall be held open using a hollow geen g4 auger or casing.
