Management Intervier The folloving subjects were discussed at the manacenent interview conducted at the site on Sente 5cr 13, 1972:

A.

The inspector stated his inseectien disclosed that site a:tivities presently being performed, did not include all continuatien activities authorized by the August 16, 1972 letter from L.

The inspector added that only maintenance itens appeared to have been undertaken, and asked when concrete placement in the turbine building, and in-sta11ation of reinforcing steel, embedinent and fort work for the reactor building foundation would be undertaken.

The licensee stated that concrete placement in the turbine building is not scheduled until early in 1973 after the batch plant is mod-ified for automatic control and crected on the site and a well is drilled on site. This activity may start in mid October,1972, and The licen-batch plant testing will follow in November or December.

see added that about twelve turbine building pedestals and footings, totalling less than 100 cubic yards, will be placed to test the site batch plant. However, if the construction permit is not issued in January, 1973, an additional request to DL will be made to place about 250 cy encasement for the valve pit.

Regarding installation of reinforcing steel etc. for the reactor building foundation, the licensee stated that only about 50 per cent of the steel is now in place and, depending on new contract negoti-ations between Lilco and S&W, reactivation of site work including the installation of the remaining pre-formed rebar could start late this year but may be delayed until 1973.

The inspector acknowledged these statements and informed the licensee that R0:I would keep current on site activities during subsequent inspections.

B.

The inspector inquired about additional dredging intake canals and what docking facilities were planned for delivery of manufactured equipment.

The licensee replied that intake canal widths and depths were sufficient to bring in a barge with reacter internals and coisture separators into the slip.

But an area of about 50' X 150' at the inboard end of the slip, would be dragline dredged to provide for barges brought in at high tide grounded for unloading at low tide.

The inspecter acknowledged these staterente and inforced the licensee that RU: 1 would keep current on site activities during subsequent inspections.

SECTION II Additional Subjects Inspected, Not Identified in Section I, Where No Deficiencies or Unresolved Items Were Found 1.

This special announced inspection was made to verify that continuing construction had not exceeded the authorized activities.

2.

The applicant requested approval for continuation of the following activities:

a.

Maintenance and relocation of security fences.

b.

Fbintenance of the designed depths and widths of the intake canal and construction of docking facilities, to accomodate delivery of heavy equipment.

c.

Maintenance of the Wading River Creek outlet on Long Island Sound as agreed upon with the State of New York and the L. S.

Army Corps of Engineers, d.

Continuation of procurement and erection of an on-site concrete batch plant.

e.

Continuation of placement of steel reinforcing, embediments, and formvork for the reactor builcing foundation.

f.

Continuation of installation of a warehouse extensien to store and perform in-storage quality control procedures for plant equip-ment and materials previously manufactured, g.

Continuation of maintenance activities at the site including de-watering system operations and fire protection, for minor tem-parary construction facilities.

h.

Placement of small quantitics of concrete in the turbine building area to test the on site concrete batch plant.

3.

With reference to the approved construction activities, this inspec-tion disclosed the following activities:

No security fence work along property line has been undertaken.

a.

b.

No intake canal dredging has been done.

Annual maintenance dredging of the Wading River Creek outlet on c.

Long Island Sound was performed in the latter part of Ray 1972.

About 500 cubic yards of sandy silt at cauti of the creek was removed by land based dragline and deposited to build beach on the east side of the cteek as agreed upon with the State of New York and the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, d.

Site concrete batch plant installation is not expected until mid October, 1972.

In place storage of steel reinforcing for the reactor building e.

foundation has not been resumed since all work was shut down in September, 1971.

f.

Erection of a warehouse extension, (identified in PSAR (Figure 11-2-3) about 700' east of reactor building), is not yet started.

The contractor's work trailer was brought te site last week.

g.

Site maintenance activities:

(1) Dewatering systec consisting of 20' deep, 4' spaced well points, has operated continuously since initial installation and excavation, about May, 1970, some well points have re-quired replace:ent to maintain pumping rate of about 2,000 gPD-(2)

Fire protection has required maintenance of the system, that obtains potable desilted water from three wells about 1,500' south of the site, and, of the resupply trench.

(3) Miscellaneous temporary construction facilities, such as changes and modifications to construction power transformers, has been in progress since early September, an outside con-tractor with a four man crew will complete these changes this centh.

(4)

Placement of concrete in the turbine building has not been

e s

,. undertaken pending installation of. site batch plant in mid October of this year and initial batch plant placements for crane slabs. About twelve turbine building pedestals and footings aggregating about 100 cy may be placed this year for testing the batch plant efficiency.

4.

During site inspection trip with Lilco's Gerecke and Black and S&W's Moran, the latter informed the inspector that negotiations are pres-ently underway on S&W's pre;csal for a new " force account" contract.

Since th( proposal has not e: been acceptec by Lilco, schedules of c

work for site reactivation by S&W in November could be effected.

Also, Moran stated that under a force account contract, S&W would be a prime contractor with first level QC in all work, and, the subcontractors would only be a source for labor in each category of work.
