, RESPONSE ITEM.50.: 10 TITLE: Inspector Oualification '(J. A. Jones and Fegles)

.NRC DESCRIPTION OF CONCERN: -

The NRC staff reviewed the qualification and certificaticns of QC inspectors.in the civil /st ructural area. The review included the qualifications of four Ebasco inspectors, five J.A. Jones inspectors, and eight Fagles inspectors. The inspector qualifications were compared against the requireecnts of ANSI N45.2.6 and the contractor's procedures.

The staff found that four of the five J.A. Jones. inspectors and two of the eight Fegles inspectors failed to meet the applicable certification requirements related to relevant experience. Since these inspectors were involved in the inspection of safety-related activities, the fact that they may not have been qualified to perform such inspections, renders the quality 1 of the inspected construction activities as indeterminant.

LP&L shafl review all inspector qualifications and certifications for J.A. Jones and Fegles against the project requirements and provide the information in such a form that each requirement is clearly shown to have been met by each inspector. If an inspector is found to not meet the qualification requirements, the licensee shall then review the records to determine the . inspections made by the unqualified individuals and provide a statement on the impact of the deficiencies noted on the safety of the project.

DISCUSSION:

A verification program was implemented to review the professional credentials of 100% of the site QA/QC personnel who may have performed safety-related functions at Waterford 3, including supervisers, managers and remaining QA/QC personnel.

The responses to Issues No. I and 20 discuss inspecter qualifications for Waterford 3 contractors other than J.A. Jones and Fegles.

The program, which is being performed under the overall direction of LP&L, consists of three major elements:

o Collection and verification of personnel data.

o Evaluation of qualifications against specified standards.

L

( o Dispositioning of deficiencies resulting from cases where inspections L and tests were conducted by personnel whose qualifications against the appropriate standards ceuld not be confirmed.

~ Collection and Verification of Personnel-Data

~

Personnel Idata were collected from - various sources , . including - site . files, contractor home office files, personal contact with individuals or supervisors and through a background verification program.

Efforts were made to verify the education and work experience of 100% of the J.A. Jones and Fegles QA/QC_ personnel by researching Waterford 3 contractor records and by contacting schools, former employers and others. The background verification effort for J.A. Jones and Fegles personnel was a joint LP&L/Ebasco effort. While the success rate of this' effort was good, there were cases where.

confirmatory information was not obtainable. In such cases, the judgement of the LP&L Review Board, as described below, was used to rule en the reliability of the available information.

Evaluation of Oualifications to Specified Standards QA/QC personnel data were evaluated in order to classify individuals as either having verified qualifigations or not.- Training, education and work experience were the qualifications of primary concern. These qualifications were verified against the follcwing griteria:

(1) Inspectors - ANSI N45.2.6-1973 ,

(2) Other QA/QC Personnel - QA Program requirements Initial qualification determinations for J.A. Jones and Fegles QA/QC personnel were performed first by Ebasco and then separately by an LP&L review group.

In order to control the consistency of these determinations, approved procedures were utilized. Determinations related primarily to balancing education, experience and training factors.

The LP&L review group qualification determinations were rendered in two 4

categories: " qualified" and "potentially not qualified"._ "Potentially not qualified" determinations were referred to an LP&L Review Board comprised of, senior LPSL QA personnel. The Review Board determinations were further reviewed by a contracted individual very familiar with inspector qualification and related standards. This process resulted in a final determination for all QA/QC personnel as either " qualified", or " unqualified".

The qualification review process is described in QASP 19.12 and QAI-32. The l following points further clarify the process:

l

1. The meaning of the term " unqualified" must be amplified. In some cases determinations were made that, based on verified data, i individuals' backgrounds did not warrant qualification to ANSI l N45.2.6-1973. In other cases, however, individuals were considered l " unqualified" as an expedient in reaching resolution to the concern.

l This occurred in cases in which:

l l

10-2 d

j

a. -Research of records, inquiries to past employers and employees, contact with schools and verification of training received . was either not possible or could not -be' concluded in a reasonable

-period of~ time.

b. Apparent discrepancies existed between background information provided by some individuals and that obtained in the

- verification process, and resolution could not be achieved on a timely basis. Minor discrepancies- were excused; however, significant discrepancies ~ generally rendered any other significant-but unverified data as suspect.

2. In the process used, being judged as " unqualified" to ANSI N45.2.6-1973 did not automatically render the . individual's work as invalid. For example, an - individual may' not have the education and experience qualifications for1 all inspection work, yet _be fully competent through specific training or other means to perform the particular tasks assigned to him, which might have been very simple and repetitive in nature. Such an individual potentially satisfies ANSI requirements, which ultimately require that an individual's qualifications be sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that the

, individual can competently perform a pa::ticular task. Whether or not the individual-is technically qualified, the individual's work can be

~

deemed valid.

3. During the construction period, sone contractors made undocumented judgements with respect to the need for eye examinations for inspection personnel. Such judgements were based on the level of visual acuity or color perception required to achieve competent inspections. Such judgements were also made as part of the verification program and disposition process and will be documented.

It is noted that such judgements ara specifically suggested in ANSI N45.2.6-1978. This factor was not deemed disqualifying.

Disposition of Deficiencies For J.A. Jones and Fegles, the LP&L Review Board compiled' a list of

" unqualified" inspector personnel, and Corrective Action Requests (CAR) were written to ~ formally track and disposition potential deficiencies. Limited background verification efforts remain for J. A. Jones and Fegles personnel.

Should completion of the verification cause a change in the results, the response will be amended accordingly.

Included'in. Attachment 1 are the verification program results for J.A. Jones end Fegles.  !

For J . A. . Jones, CAR EQAS4-22 identified 25 QC personnel who performed inspections while not meeting the requirements of ANSI M45.2.6-1973. The construction activities inspected by . the identified J. A. Jones personnel with respect to.the Common Foundation Basemat and Engineered Backfill were inspected by qualified Ebasco inspectors. Accordingly, inspection by the J.A. Jones personnel ~does not render the quality of the inspected construction activities -

.as indeterminate. Adequacy of the inspected construction activities was

' independently confirmed .by qualified inspectors. J.A. Jones inspector qualification deficiencies _in areas other than the Common Foundation Basemat and Engineered Backfill will be addressed in a supplemental response.

For Fegles, CAR EQA84-20 identified three QC personnel who performed inspections while not meeting the requirements of ANSI N45.2.6-1973. The three individuals performed preplacement inspections on a limited scope of slip form operations.

Duplicate preplacement inspections were performed by qualified Ebasco QC inspectors. Accordingly, inspection by the Fegles personnel does not render the quality of the inspected construction activities as indeterminate. Adequacy of the inspect 2d construction activities was independently confirmeJ by qualified inspectors.

CAUSE:

ANSI N45. 2.6-1973 allows substitution fo r education and experience levels by noting that "... education and experience requirements specified for the various levels should not be treated as absolute when other factors provide reasonable assurance that a person can competently perform a particular task." J.A. Jones and Fegles, to varying degrees, employed such substitutions in certifying the qualifications of their QA/QC personnel. However, the verification program revealed that verification of background data was not adequate or documented, documentation of the justification for substitution was sometimes not provided or lacked depth, and/or was not always totally in accord with J.A. Jones /Fegles procedures or the ANSI standards, as currently interpreted.

GENERIC UfPLICATIONS:

This issue has been treated generically. In response to this Issue and Issues 1 and 20, the verification program included 100% of the QA/QC personnel of all site contractors who performed safety related work.

! With regard to future work, qualification and certification of inspectors (including NDE personnel) will be administered through strict compliance with LPSL Nuclear Operations Procedures which meet the requirements of Regulatory Guide ~1.58 Rev. 1 (ANSI N45.2.6-1978) and SNT-TC-1A-1975, as applicable.

i SAFETY SIGNIFICANCE:

! Satisfactory disposition of CAR #EQA84-16 (J.A. Jones) and CAR #EQA84-7 (Fegles) will provide adequate assurance that the installations by J. A. Jones and Fegles will perform satisfactorily in service, l

h-A review of the work of.the identified J.A. Jones inspectors has been

completed 'with respect - to the
Common Foundation -Basemat, including cadwelds.- .This review also included the identification of ,

overinspection performed by qualified Ebasco inspectors who inspected the construction of the Common Foundation Basecat.-

Where an ' inspection activity was1 performed by an identified J.A. Jones inspector, the qualifications of the Ebasco inspector who perforced

_ the overinspection -of the same activity was checked.

In this manner it. was demonstrated that each of the Common Foundation Basemat placements were inspected by one or more qualified inspectors.

The reinforcing bar cadwelds which were inspected by J.A. Jones have '

.also treen addressed in the response to NRC Concern No. 11 for tre entire JPIS. The cadwelds are deemed acceptable.

The structural backfill inspections performed - by J.A. . Jones were overinspected by qualified Ebasco inspectors. In addition, statistical studies were performed which demons,trate the consistency of the work.

The cla= shell Filter Blanket quality was addressed in NCR-W3-5997

_, including addressing. the uncertified J.A. Jones inspectors. The Blanket var found acceptable. ,

Accordingly, inspection by the J.A. Jones personnel does not render the quality of the inspected construction activities as ind! terminate.

Adequacy of the inspected construction activities was independently confirmed by qualified inspectoi;s. J.A. Jones inspector qualification deficiencies in areas other than the Common Foundation Basemat and Engineered Backfill will be addressed in a supplemental response.

Completion of the review of the work of the concrete inspectors on the balance ' of the J.A. Jones construction activities is expected . by November 9. This report will be supplemented at that time to reflect the findings of that review.

5. Inspector Qualification and Dispositioning of Deficiencies:

The Verification Program identified three Fcgles QC personnel (out of the ' original seven (7) identified on . CAR EQA84-20) who performed quality inspections and whose . qualifications were determined as not meeting the requirements of ANSI N45.2.6-1973. Corrective Action Request EQA84-20 was initiated to track the disposition of this deficiency.

Ebasco QA has- determined that these three Fegles QC personnel were involved ~ only with the slip form operations - (placement series G-Sil) from April to May of 1976. Tha three Fegles QC inspectors only performe preplacement inspections. These inspections were documented on the preplacement ~ checklist. Further research concluded that although these three individuals did . perform inspections, qualified Ebasco 'QC inspectors performed 100% duplicate preplacement inspections.

Accordingly, inspection by the Fegles personnel does not render the quality of the inspected construction activities as indeterminate.

Adequacy ' of the inspected construction activities was independently

  • confirmed by qualified inspectors.

RESPONSE

ITEM NO: 20 TITLE: Construction Materials Testing (CMT) Personnel Qualification Records-NRC DESCRIPTION OF CONCERN:

The . Inquiry Team; ef fort included a review of the disposition of-the generic problem identified during the LP&L Task : Force verification relative - to GEO Construction Testing (GEO) documentation for ' personnel qualifications in' the

, area of CMT.

The utility 3 should- conduct a review of supporting documentation for GE0 corrective action stated in Attachment .6 of NCR ,W3-F7-116' (Ebasco W3-6487).

This review should focus'on the identification of CMT personnel placed . in GEO -

Categories 1, 2, or 3 who were apparently quali_fied solely on written statements

.by other individuals attesting to the individuals training and qualifications.

For such individuals, the applicant should pursue any new information or evaluations which could provide further assurance in support of the actual past work experience and training referenced by the written statements.

DISCUSSION:

As requested by the~ staff, LP&L has pursued and obtained additional information on the GEO individuals performing inspections and tests as will be explained in the sections of this response entitled " Collection. and Verification of Personnel Data" and " Disposition of Deficiencies". Also, evaluations have been --

made of work performed by GEO personnel as briefly outlined herein.

A verification program was implemented to review the professional credentials of 100% of the site QA/QC personnel who may have performed safety-related functions at Waterford 3, including supervisors, managers and remaining QA/QC personnel.

Assessment of the qualifications of all GEO Construction Material Testing (CMT) personnel, including those identified in Attachmant 6 of Ebasco NCR W3-6497 (the NRC reference to Ebasco NCR W3-6487 is apparently a typographical error), was a part of that verification program.

The responses to Issues No. I and 10 discuss inspector qualifications for other.

Waterford 3 contractor personnel.

The program, which is being performed under ' the overall direction of LP&L, consists of three major elements:

o Collection and verification of personnel data, o Evaluation of qualifications against specified standards.

o Dispositioning of deficiencies resulting from cases where inspections, tests or data collection were conducted by personnel whose qualifications against the appropriate standards could not be confirmed.

20-1

~

I' Coll'ctien end Verificatidn of-Personnel Drta Personnel ' data were collected from various sources, including site files, contractor _home office files, personal contact with individuals oor supervisors and a thorough background verification program.- .

' Efforts were made to verify the education and work experience of 1007. of the GEC-CMT QA/QC personnel by researching Waterford 3 GEO-CMT records and .by.

contacting schools, former employers and others. While the success rate of the

-background verification effort for GEO-CMT was good, there were cases where confirmatory = informatipn was . not obtainable. In such cases, the judgement of the LP&L Review Board, as described below, was used to rule on the reliability of the available information.

Evaluation'of Qualifications to Soecified Standards QA/QC. personnel data were evaluated Lin order to classify individuals as either having verified qualifications or not. Training, education and work experience were the qualifications of primary concern. These qualifications were verified against the following criteria:

(1) Inspectors - ANSI N45.2.6-1973 (2) Other QA/QC Personnel - QA Program requirements-Initial qualification determinations for CEO-CMT personnel were performed first by Ebasco and then separately by an LP&L review group. In order to control'the consistency of these determinations, approved procedures were utilized.

Determinations related primarily to balancing education, experience and training factors.

The LP&L review group qualification determinations were rendered in two categories: " qualified" and "potentially not qualified". "Potentially not qualified" determinations were referred to an LP&L Review Board comprised of senior LP&L QA personnel.

-provided by some individuals and that obtained in the verification process, and resolution' could not be achieved on a timely . basis. Minor discrepancies were excused; however,

.significant discrepancie9 generally rendered any other significant but unverified data as suspect.

~ 2. In the process used, being judged as " unqualified" to ANSI 945.2.6-1973 did not automatically render . the individual's work as invalid. For example, an individual may not have the education and experience qualifications for all inspection work, yet - be fully ccmpetent through specific training to perform the particular tasks assigned to him, which might have been very simple and repetitive in nature. 'Such-an individual potentially satisfies ANSI requirements, which ultimately require- that an individual's qualifications be sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that the individual can ccmpetently perform a particular taak. Whether or not the individual is technically qualified, the individual's' work can be deemed valid.

3. During the construction period, GE0 made undocumented judgements with respect to the need for eye examinations for inspection personnel.

Such judgements were based on the level of visual acuity or color-perception required to achieve competent inspections. Such judgements were also made as part.of the verification program and disposition

. process and will be documented. It is noted that such judgements are specifically suggested in ANSI N45.2.6-1978. This factor was not deemed disqualifying. ,

4. Some individuals were classified as inspectors but performed no safetf' related inspections and were otherwise not involved in quality related work. To the extent such individuals were identified, they were excluded from the overall inspector population.

Disposition of Deficiencies For those individuals found " unqualified" the LP&L review board initiated Corrective Action Request (CAR) EQA84-11 to formally disposition the identified deficiencies. Ebasco NCR-W3-6497 will be reopened to reficct the disposition of that CAR.

Disposition of CAR EQA84-11 was accomplished by 3 methods as follows:

1) Assessment of Key CMT tests and of skills required to perform these tests.

The key tests were as follows:

a) Concrete - The most important test is the final cylinder break test as this test serves to confirm the strength of the concreta actually placed in the structure. Other tests on concrete are generally either performed as measures to avoid subsequent replacement of sub-specification concrete or were performed in collecting the concrete for and preparing of the test cylinders.

The break test requires minimal skill in setting up and starting a compression device which compresses' a pre-molded cylinder to failure. A large gauge records the force required which is easily translated into the data required.

  • Further confidence in the quality of the as-built material is provided by.the fact that improper operator action would tend to degrade test results, i.e. . improper testing would - cause the concrete to appear.

less strong than it'actually is.

b) Soils - The most important test is the field density test as it measures whether the backfill material has been compacted to specific requirements. The' field portion of the work, which was performed by the technician, consisted of digging a small hole and placing the -

removed soil in an airtight container, positioning a rubber balloon apparatus over the hole, inflating the balloon to a predetermined ,

pressure and reading a volume indicator scele.

Further, - confidence in the quality of the as-built material is provided by the quantity of tests conducted. As stated in the engineering' . report supporting the response to issue 7, to insure control of backfill placement approximately three times as many field density tests were conducted as required ~ by the technical specifications.

c) Cadwelds - There was only one test on cadwelds conducted by GEO-CMT and that was the break test. This test is as simple as the concrete break test. The test specimens are secured in a tension device,

' tension is applied and the failure strength is read from a gauge and recorded.

  • i The review indicates all cadweld tests were egducted by personnel qualified to ANSI 45.2.6 (73)

It has been determined that only minimal training would be required for an unskilled individual to become proficient in performing the above tests. A single demonstration coupled with minimal practice under proper supervision is sufficient. GEO has fornally confirmed that " Prior to being assigned to production work, all personnel were trained to perform the work required." On the basis of the above, though not strictly qualified to ANS1 N45.2.6-1973, individuals could be considered competent to perform the technician or data collection type functions described.

2) Ouality of Testing Performed by Personnel in Ouestion A detailed analysis was conducted of inspection / testing performed by a large sample of Level I personnel in question. This sample is felt to include the most significant exposure in terms of potential for inferior inspection / testing. Level II and III personnel either performing or directly supervising the performance of the tests described above should be competent to perform such functions.

3. Engineerine Evaluation A statistical analysis was conducted, using industry standard techniques, to evaluate test results for concrete and the class A backfi1* (Reference 3). In the case of concrete both the overall and within-test coefficients of variation demonstrated excellent control of the product which would not be the case had the tests not been well conducted. Backfill test results also demonstrate good consistency. This evaluation verifies the overall adequacy of the work of all levels, Levels (I, 11 and III) of GEO-CMT QC personnel.

As stated before, all cadweld tests were conducted by personnel cor.sidered qualified.

CAUSE:

Implementation of ANSI N45.2.6-1973 allows substitution for education and experience levels by noting that " ... education and experience requirements specified for the various levels should not be treated as absolute when other factors provide reasonable assurance that a person can competently perform a particular task." CEO and its predecessor organizations issued certifications of qualificctions for testing personnel under successive programs which employed such substitutions and which became more detailed and better documented with time. Th'e program in place since 1978 generally parallels the ANSI Standard for inspector certification. However, the verification program revealed that verification of background data was not adequate or documented, documentation of tne justification for substitution of other factors for the requisite degree of training, education or experience was'sometimes not provided, lacked depth, was not totally in accord with contractor procedures or the ANSI standard, as currently.inte rp re ted.

GENERIC IMPLICATIONS:

This issue has been treated generically. The scope of the verification program included 100% of the QA/QC personnel of all site contractors who may have performed safety-related work, including CE0 CMT personnel.

With regard to future work, qualification and certification of inspectors (including NDE personnel) will be administered through strict compliance with LP&L Nuclear Operations Procedures which meet the requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.58 Rev. 1 (ANSI N45.2.6-1978) and SNT-TC-1A-1975, as applicaole.

SAFETY SIGNIFICANCE:

The results of the verification program and evaluation of the work performed by

" unqualified" GEO CMT personnel provides reasonable assurance that the reisted installations will perform satisfactorily in service. There is no recognized reason that this issue should constrain fuci load or power operation.

On October 5, 1984, I submitted a request for authori:stion to load fuel and pcrform pre-criticality hot functional testing, subject to our completion of the pertinent elements of the Licensing Program Plan and other identified activities. This is to inform you that Waterford-3 is physically complete and ready for fuel loading. '

. Responses to all of the 23 issues identified by the NRC in Reference 2 have now been submitted. While the responses to Issues 1, 6 and 10 will be supple-mented in November (see Reference 3), the current status of our resolution ot the issues fully supports issuance of an operating license conditioned to preclude initial criticality until the NRC has fully resolved the 23 issues.

This position represents our desire to confirm LPSL's confidence in the hardware cceeptability to the NRC and the public served by LP&L prior to going critical cnd proceeding with the low power testing and pcwer ascension program. The lack of fission products and decay heat, prior to initial criticality, assure that no significant hazard exists for fuel loading and subsequent pre-criticality testing.

The safety reviews of plant systems against each of the 23 NRC issues described in Reference i have been completed for the systems required by Technical Specifications for Modes 6 through Mode 3 (Fuel Load and Post-core Hot Functional Testing). As presented in Attachment A, only three instances were determined to require a limited safety review. A limited safety review is defined as a

An additional safety review would be performed prior to initial criticality. In these instances the resolution of the issues were evaluated to be sufficient to proceed with operation

'in Modes 6 through 3. Further resolution would be a prerequisite to removing _  !

-tha limiestion on initial criticality. Attachment'B provides' a summary of the scfGty reviews performed for the systems required by the Technical Specifications for operation in Mode 2 and Mode 1 (initial criticality to full power operation).

Attcchment D of Reference 1 included a listing of licensing commitments, significant ,

prerequisite to fuel load and post-core hot functional testing. These , j udgements ,

which are few in number, have been reviewed with the Resident NRC Inspectors.

An cdditional-area which must be addressed relative to actual fuel load'.is completion of the surveillances required by Technical Specifications prior to cntering Mode 6 (Fuel Load). These surveillances are basically comp 1ste, as- .

  • pr0 tented in Attachment C. Completion of prerequisite surveillances for Modes 5,

'4 cud 3 are not expected to impact the performance of post-core hot functional tooting.

Your timely action on this matter is requested. With both the plant and its staff in their current state of readiness, our ability to begin fuel loading and pre-criticality testing in the near term will avoid unnecessary delays in the

. LICENSING PLAN FOR' FUEL LOADING AND PRECRITICALITY POST CORE LOAD HOT FUNCTIONAL TESTING .-

LA Licensing Program Plan has been structured to institute safety reviews of thsse plant systems required for fuel load and post fuel load testing, '

criticality and-low power testing (to 5% power) and full power operation. ,

A detailed review of the technical specifications was performed to

_. dctermine the listing of plant systems required for fuel loading and -

post-core hot functional testing under the limited license (Table A-1).

Forty-nine plant systems have been identified as being required to be opsrable by Waterford SES #3 technical specifications in modes 6,'5, 4, 3 *

(rafueling through hot standby) and these systems.are the subject of this

Attachment (Attachment A). These are the modes involved with fuel load and pre-criticality, post fuel load hot functional testing. This is a conservative approach because many of these requirements assume the *

- prcsonce of irradiated fuel and therefore are not of significance to the initial core loading and testing processes. This program will assure LP&L management that the impact of any concern raised is properly assessed and roco1ved in the context of safe plant operations and protection of the public health and safety as will be specified in our operating license / standard technical specifications and FSAR.

Safety reviews were performed on each of the plant systems in Table A-1,

  • egninst each of the 23 issues (Table A-2). Table A-3 provides a complace matrix indicating'those safety reviews which have been successfully ,

completed. Table A-4 provides the footnotes associated with the Table A-3 mrtrix indicating outstanding actions required to complete the matrix. ~

Wh:re successful completion of the safety review is indicated in Table A-3, tha safety review assures completion of those actions necessary to insure tha system is constructed and functions according to the requirements of .

ths FSAR in light of the 23 issues, without consideration of the lack of ficsion products (due to not having gone critical). In' three instances it w:s judged to be necessary to perform limited safety reviews (credit must ,

b3 taken for lack of fission products in order to justify safety significance). The matrix references a footnote describing the circumstances and basis for the limited review for each of the instances.

i During the safety evaluation of these 49 fuel load systems they were i categorized into subgroups that logically represent the potential issue by '

tasue safety tapact. The subgroups are defined in Table A-6 as:

-A. The issue does not have a safety related effect on the system because:

+

a)- the~ contractor in question did not do work on the system under evaluation, or b) the procedure or. process in question did not apply to the system under evaluation. -

B. The issue does not have a safety relatec effect on the system because:  !

a) the contractor in question did not do any safety related work on the system under evaluation, or the procedure or process in question did not apply to any safety related portions of the system under evaluation, and b) any non-safety related activities performed on the system of concern does not have any significant effect on the safety related function of the system under evaluation. .

~

C. The issue does have a potential safety related effect on the system because:

a) the contractor in question did work of safety significance on the system under evaluation, or

  • b) the procedure or process in question did Apply to safety-significant activities of the system under evaluation.

Safety evaluations were performed and vertfted (as necessary) to assure LP&L management that Waterford SES #3 can be safely operated without compromising the health and safety of the pubite. The subgroup for each system, as it relates to each of the twenty-three issues, is presented in Table A-6. In performing the evaluations, it was determined'that it would be more effective to subdivide the first' tssue (Inspection Personnel Issues) into three subissues covering 1A - Mercury, 13 - Thompkins-Beckwith and IC - Other Contractors. This resulted in effectively 2:5 issues being evaluated for each of the 49 plant systems. Since this res.ults in a total of 1225 safety reviews '(each consisting of several pages) te is not '

feasible to present all of the documentation in this tr'ansmittal. The full documentation of the safety reviews is on file at the Waterford SES #3 On-stte Licensing Unit offices for inspection and review by the NRC staff.

The individual safety reviews were reviewed and summaries prepared, for those falling within Subgroup C. The summaries are included in ehts attachment (Table A-5) for emph issue and subissue.

Issue #4 - Lower Tier Corrective Actions Are Not Being Upgraded to NCR's

'_ Subgroup C - DCN's, FCR's, EDN's and T-B DN's have been reviewed and it was determined that some documents should have been upgraded to NCR's. A safety cvaluation was performed to assure LP&L management that Waterford SES #3 can be safely operated without compromising the health and safety of the public.

Issue #4 does have a potential effect on all systems in Table A-6.

The Evaluation reveals that a statistically acceptable number of lower tier documents were reviewed showing no significant quality impact Gno cases were detected which were safety significant and would be reportable under 10CFR50.55e). Therefore it is possible to conclude with a 95% confidence level that 95% of the unsampled documents contain no significant deficiencies. Accordingly, this issue does not serve as a constraint to safe cperation of the systems.

Subgroup C - The LP&L review of qualifications status documentation for all Mercury welders has been completed and the program does have a potential impact on the system. The weldment filler material controls did apparently deviate from code requirements.

Issue #22 does have a potential effect on all systems in Table A-6.

The Evaluation contains a clarification of the review finding on welder qualifications, and there are no potential unreviewed safety questions pertinent to this issue. "Rebaking" of low hydrogen electrodes was not practiced on the site and engineering justification demonstrates that while there were limited deviations from code specifications however this did not cause degradation of quality of weldment filler material.

Analyzers related instrumenta-tion was inspected by 64 Control Element Assy. potentially unqualified Calculator inspectors. The quality of safety related instru-mentation associated with this system was verified. "

Verification was accom-plished by reinspection ~

of N1 instrument loops.

Satisfactory completion of this program involving Mercury installations verifies acceptance of the installations. Accordingly, this issue does not serve as a constraint to the safe

' operation of these systems, and has been resolved and closed out by LP&L. ,

I B-8

Issue #1B - Tompkins-Beckwith Subgroup C - Tompkins-Beckwith did perform safety related work on the system, and safety evaluations were performed to assure LP&L management that Waterford SES #3 can be safely operated without compromising the health and safety of the public.

Issue #1 does have a potential effect on:

System # System Description Evaluation 43-H RCB Hydrogen Recombiners/ Work performed on this Analyzers system was inspected by potentially unqualified

. inspectors. To close out the concern LP&L verified the qualifications of the initial inspectors. LP&L also verified qualifications of the inspectors performing any over-inspection. Over-ingpection provided to meet the ASME Code requirements -

for third party Authorized Nuclear Inspection services and independent Preservice Inspection in conjunction with other inspection programs, hydrostatic testing, and Pre-Core Hot Functional Testing confirm i the acceptability of hardware installed by Tompkins-Beckwith.

Issue #4 - Lower Tier Corrective Actions Are Not Being Upgrcded to NCR's Subgroup C - DCN's, FCR's, EDN's and- T-B DN's have been reviewed and it was determined that some documents should have been upgraded to NCR's. A safety  !

cvaluation was performed to assure LP&L management that Waterford SES #3 can be safely operated without compromising the health and safety of the public.

Issue #4 does have a potential effect on all systems in Table B-5.

i The Evaluation reveals that a statistically acceptable number of lower tier documents were reviewed showing no significant quality impact (no cases were detected which were safety significant and would be reportable under 10CFR50.55e). Therefore it is possible to conclude with a 95% confidence level that 95% of the unsampled documents contain no significant deficiencies. Accordingly, this issue does not serve as a constraint to safe

-operation of the systems.

Issue #6 - Dispositioning of Non-Conformance and Discrepancy Reports Subgroup C - It was noted during a review of NCR's that some of the reports had questionable dispositioning potentially rendering the quality of installation indeterminate.

Issue #6 does have a potential effect on all systems in Table B-5.

The Evaluation included a combination screening and sampling method to review EBASCO NCR's including NCR's identified by the NRC and no items were identified which had significant safety impact on the systems. , Mercury NCR's were reviewed for upgrade and sampled to determine reportability to support the conclusion that the safety review is not effected.

Issue #7 - Backfill Soil Densities Subgroup C - Data from the in-place density tests on the class A fill was potentially not traceable relative to the technical adequacy of the placements, therefore the impact on the the quality of the system may have been indeterminate. A safety evaluation was performed to assure LP&L management that Waterford SES #3 can be safely operated without compromising the health and safety of the public.

Issue #7 does have a potential effect.on all systems in Table B-5.

The Evaluation reveals that the data for the in-place density tests performed on the class A fill has been located and has been transmitted to the QA records vault. Review and analysis of the records indicates that the Class A backfill soil densities are in accordance with specifications and FSAR requirements except for analytically non-significant deficiencies and do's provide the required design structural capacity for the plant under seismic loadings. Accordingly, this issue does not serve as a constraint to safe operation of the system, and has been resolved and closed out by LP&L.

The concern was that the LP&L program may not have promptly or thoroughly examined the cpecific areas of concern and the programmatic implications of these systems. l Issue #16 does have a potential effect on all systems in Table B-5.

The Evaluation reveals that all concerns are being reviewed under an improved quality concern program. Where there are issues not previously.. identified with potential safety related consequences, these issues are promptly reported to LP&L management. These concerns are properly addressed under LP&L required and approved management programs in a timely fashion. The program does not involve unreviewed safety issues.

Issue #17 - QC Verification of Expansion Anchor Characteristics Subgroup C - Mercury, the subject of this concern, did install safety related instrumentation expansion anchors in these systems. A safety evaluation was performed to assure LP&L management that the system can be safely operated without compromising the health and safety of the public.

Issue #22 - Walder Qualifications (Mercury) and Filler Materials Control (Site Wide)

Subtroup C - The LP&L review of qualifications status documentation for all 3 Mercury welders has been completed and the program does have a potential impact on the system. The weldment filler material controls did apparently deviate from code requirements.

Issue #22 does have a potential effect on all systems in Table B-5.

The Evaluation contains a clarification of the review finding os. welder qualifications, and there are no potential unreviewed safety questions pertinent to this issue. "Rebaking" of low hydrogen electrodes was not practiced on the site and engineering _ justification demonstrates that while there were limited deviations from code specifications however this did not cause degradation of quality of weldment filler material.
