• Denotes those attending the monthly exit meetin . Installation of Stainless Steel, Mineral Insulated Control Cables (52063C)

The stainless steel, mineral insulated control cables are used with the I incore monitoring devices. Continuity testing on these cables must be  !

performed prior to installation and must be within a 50% tolerance range of the manufacturers test values.

,

t The resident inspector walked down the installed cables for circuits i 1-019R-1A, 4A, 11B, and 14B. The inspector also reviewed Engineering '

Change Notice (ECN) 28143-33-4896, Revision A and Field Variance Authorization i i

(FVA)8393-33-1698. Also reviewed was the test data for these installed circuit l

!

The inspector witnessed the attempt to verify the qualification of samples  ;

of cable for circuit ID19R-5A which was unsuccessful. This failure was  !

probably caused by the sensitivity of the mineral insulation to the semi [

, controlled (moist) atmosphere of the testing area, which is not as severe  !

after installation since the cable is sealed, and possible problems with

'

!

, calibration of testing equipment. In addition, an attempt was made to i i qualify two other cables which also failed. The tests were terminated -

and a nonconformance report written. Testing will commence after ,

recalibration or changing of the test equipmen !

-

t This is considered to be~an open item (440/85044-01).  ;

3. Review of Structural Steel As-Builts (37051B)

The resident inspector reviewed the licensee's program to determine availability of as-built documents to site operations personnel and the ease with which the personnel are able to detemine areas and structural assemblies and/or elements associated with these areas within the plan Documentation of structural steel and concrete areas starts with Gilbert Associates Inc. (GAI) design drawings, i.e., steel framing plan and section drawing numbers and concrete plan and section drawing numbers, which then leads to the document package which contain the weld maps and bolting details listing all NRs, ECNs, FVAs, etc. for each member and joint for structural steel. These weld maps have the same drawing number as the design drawing The same is true for concrete work. The GAI design drawing number leads to the document package containing the pour release drawings. These document packages contain the NRs, etc., referred to above for a complete history of work perfonned. The original NRs, etc., are being placed on microfilm for ease of storage and retrieval. The originals will be then sent to an off-site vault for permanent storag This activity plus several structural walkdowns conducted at various stages of construction and documented in several inspection reports constitute completion of this phase of the modul I 4. Maintenance Program Under Extended Construction Delay (92050)

The resident inspector conducted inspection surveillances of Pullman Power ,

Products (PPP) laydown areas, both off-site at Parmley Road and un-site '

in PPP controlled areas. Observed were representative samples of the segregation of safety-related and nonsafety-related areas, the protection and capping of pipe ends on small bore and large bore piping, and protection of both installed and uninstalled equipment. These areas were determined to be acceptabl A review of procedures, equipment maintenance histories, NRs, Maintenance Requests (MR), and Work Authorizations (WA) was performed and determined l i

to be acceptable. The resident also reviewed representative samples of  !

maintenance activities and documentation for Unit 2 equipment and piping l which has been installed and the equipment that has not been installed as yet. This was found to be acceptabl . Allegation Followup (99014) (Closed) Allegation (No. RIII-85-A-0124-01) An article in a local  !

newspaper indicated that warranties on equipment that has been installed and equipment not yet installed have expire As indicated in paragraph 4 of this report the resident inspector has reviewed the licensee's maintenance program, which includes equipment manufacturers recommended maintenance procedures. These

..

have been incorporated into maintenance procedures and in certain cases expanded upon. In all cases regularly scheduled maintenance is performe This item is substantiated, in that warranties have expired on some equipment, however, manufacturer's warranties on equipment have no safety significance and based upon the in-place maintenance program of the licensee, which was found to be acceptable, this item is close (Closed) Allegation (No. RIII-85-A-0124-02) This concerns the removal of one of the Recirculation pump motors after it had failed because of an electrical fault. It has been alleged that in the process of cutting pipe to remove the pump motor, piping was cut and not documented or controlled in any wa The resident inspector contacted cognizant contractor QC personnel and licensee QA personnel. The resident was infonned that the Unit 1 Recirculation pump motor failed due to an electrical short circuit in which piping ~was cut to allow access. The work involved was documented on Deviation Report DRCOS 4562 dated May 22, 1985. For Unit 1 the moving and installation of Unit 2 pump was performed under authorization of ECNs and FVAs. All of the cut and removed piping associated with this work involved non-safety related 2" diameter line associated with the Nuclear Closed Cooling System (P43).

Based upon the NRC review of the licensee's activities in this area, this matter appeared to be adequately controlled. This allegation is considered close c. (Closed) Allegation (AMS RIII-85-A-0124-04) This allegation concerns problems with a heat test in the drywell which caused a fire. The tests were continued without success. The allegation also stated that the cause of the test failures could not be foun The resident inspector reviewed the Reactor Recirculation System Test TP1833P001 which required the system to be brought up to operating temperature (in excess of 400'F) and resulted in a fire. The fire was caused by wood scaffolding in near proximity with the piping associated with the recirculation system. The test was field completed on July 31, 1985. Delays in the test were due to tne electrical failure of one of the recirculation pumps (see Section 5.a) which required replacement, and the fire (noted above). No significant problems were identified in the conduct of the above test nor was any significant safety .related equipment damaged during the fir This allegation was not substantiated and is considered close .

6. Plant Tours (64703)

The resident inspector conducted several plant tours during the inspection

'

period. Of particular interest was housekeeping with increased craft

activity in certain areas after major testing had been accomplished. The licensee has been very diligent regarding this item. This will continue

!' to be monitored during future inspections.

i 7. Open Items Open items are matters which have been discussed with the licensee, which

! will be reviewed further by the inspector, and which involve some action on the part of the NRC or licensee or both. An open item is discussed in Paragraph 2.

'

8. Exit Meeting The inspector met with the licensee personnel indicated in Paragraph 1 and others during the inspection period and apprised them of the results of this inspectio The licensee indicated that none of the information furnished to the

- inspector during this inspection was of a proprietary nature, f
