Item 24 - Concern 5 J
(
CONCERN:
C J Parker, Powerhouse Mechanic Instrumentation, had a concern about violating QA Procedures in strand pipes on groundwater sumps.
T H Robertson was assigned this concern.
The welds is question have been replaced due to being upgraded to nuclear related and are now acceptable. The supervisors actions were inappropriate and the employee relations action plan contains appropriate corrective measures regarding this.
Other concerns mentioned during the reinterview were:
1.
Repair bent redheads 2.
Socket weld fitting on the Levition system 3.
Not allowing grout to cure for the proper amount of time.
A final interview was conducted.
According to Construction Employee Relations personnel, Parker has no quality concerns but would not sign his final interview affidavit because he feels stronger action should have been taken regarding his supervisor.
The action documented in the Employee Relations Concerns Action Plan is appropriate.

C J Parker, deposes and says:
TECHNICAL INTERVIEW:
1/2 Pipe Expansion Loops - Turbine Building.
I was installing the 1/2 piping and noticed that an expansion coil was specified by the drawing.
I asked Ken Dodd about the coll.
He said installation of the coil was unnecassary.
I asked why, he mentioned something about upgrading the system and therefore the coils were not required. The drawings still specified the coils.
Ken then told me to get to work and do as he said (no coils).
Since the piping installation, numerous R-2A's have been written on the 1/2 piping.
- Recently a,1,1,,,of the pipe has been removed and replaced with flex hose.
I forgot to report one other concern about quality at my first interview.
,in 't;he turbine bull. ding, when I was told to repair bent " redheads" on support
~
base' sil ates'.'
l'Isd two options:
1.
Remove the plate and replace the studs or 2.
Beat the studs back into proper plumb.
I always chose the latter. (Note: C J. Parker.must have meant hanger anchor studs, not " redheads").
I.do not remember where these support plates are located.
On the ground water sump pumps outside the turbine building, I was fitting l
a stand pipe with a support member. The welder I was working with could not make the weld required by the drawing.
I asked Dodd what should be done.
Ken asked me,,If the weld could be easily ~seen.
I replied no.
Ken said forget it then, tha,tMeld will be und.er water. Ai far as I know, that weld still is not right.
I can. locate this weld.
~
Another incident I did not talk about in the first interview, concerns
. socket we'id fitting on the "Levitron" system near the condensor in the turbine

per Dodd's instructions, I failed to scribe the 1/16" socket weld gap II',y~~On this % inch s stem;d Vsids'TWie not' gapped.

Th An inspector came I referred him to by, saw the lack of scribe line, asked me what was going on.
Ken Dodd. They talked and nothing was done about the gap problem. The welds
--were made.
I can locatTthese welds.
I,do not know who the inspector was.
l
- [ believe Dodd s attitude and his way of working his men, affected quality.

.T Affidavit C J Perkar
(
in my present c'rew, I would tell my foreman If I had a problem in the fleid.
If the problem was safety related, I'd either tell my safety proctor end/or my foreman.
I have never reported any poor quality work.
A lot I wouldn't want to be responsible for the operation of the plant.
cf people don't want to do good work. Nobody complains because they're cfraid they'll get fired.
I don't have any specific examples of others doing less than quality work.
I just know there's a lot of rework.
I have supplied all relevant information to the best of my knowledge.
