Inspection Summary:
Inspection Conducted: July 7 through August _), 1988 (Report
50-445/88-47s 50-446/88-42)
Areas Inspected: Unannounced, resident safety inspection of
applicant's actions on 50.55(o) construction deficiencios, action
on Information Notice 85-24, previously identified inspection '
items, removal of protective coating from SWS piping, and new open
items concerning Plasite removal.
Results: Within the areas inspected, one apparent violation was .
'
identified (breakdown in the QA program [Critorion II) relative to
the removal of the protective liner from the service water system
(SWS) piping), paragraph 3). The findings that support the ,
apparent critorion II violation concerning the SWS liner removal
are: failure to establish QA/QC program requirements and technical
requirements in procurement documents, paragraph 3.a; failure to
control special processos, paragraph 3.b; failure to provide
adequato QA/QC procedures, paragraph 3.ca and failure to take
corrective action, paragraph 3.d. Two new open items concern the
disposition of defects on the outside of the piping without
consideration of the interior defects, paragraph 3.o(1), and
engincering assigning a quality level rather than QA, ,
paragraph 3.e(2). ,
These findings represent a significant weakness in that project
management did not insure the "up-fron*.' involvement and
implementation of quality at the onset - the pipe liner removal
task.

6. Follow-up on Construction Deficiencies Concerning Service
Water system Piping
4 In NRC IR 50-445/88-34; 50-446/88-30, the NRC documented i
a detailed inspection of construction deficiency
(10 CFR Part 50.55[c)) files SDAR CF-80-07 and CP-86-07.
In 1980 and 1985, respectively, these two deficiency j
reports stated that defects were found in the Plasite r
7121 linar in the SWS piping. Inspection of the SWS .
'
piping is also documented in NRC IR 50-445/48-40;
50-446/88-36. {
J
A Plasite liner, an epoxy coating, was applied to the
inside of the carbon steel piping, ASTM A106 Grade B. In
j the 1975-76 time frame, the specifications originally
j described the coating and application as safety related. !
l The vendor applied a "Q" coating at their shop prior to !
I shipping the SWS piping to the site. According to Gibbs !
l !
& Hill (G&H) engineering, TWX No. 12523, the coating on
!
,
field wold areas was applied by the site contractor
,

without QA/QC program controls. The coating was
intended to protect the piping from the slightly
corrosive water supplied from the Squaw Crook Reservoir.
The Unit 1 system has operated for approximately six
years, half of this time in wet lay up.
The NRC inspector found the applican c's evaluation of
deficiency CP-40-07 inadequate. That is, Gibbs & rill,
Inc., the applicant's design engineer of record, did not
appropriately consider the effect of the coating applied
to SWS piping by a site contractor who did not procure or
apply the coating under a quality assurance / control
(QA/QC) program. The evaluation also failed to assume
that the coating might fail by shoots of coating coming
off the pipe wall. It also failed to address such effects
on equipment other than the component cooling water heat
exchanger. Finally, the evaluation assumed that an
inservice inspection program would prevent further pipe
wall corrosion without specific knowledge that an
edequate inspection program existed or would bo ;
developed.
l
I
The NRC inspector found that at approximately the same
time (1980) design change authorizations (DCA) 8809 and :
8810 changed piping specifications MS-43B and MS-100 to l
read: "Plasite No. 7122 and its application are not !
safety related." The justification assumed that the loss l
'
of the coating was not detrimental to the safety of the
plant. This assumption was in direct contrast to the
later Institute of Nuclear Power Operation's (INPO)
Significant Event Report (SER) 6883 and to NRC
Information Notice 85-24, issued in 1983 and 1985, ;
respectively, which reported the failure of Plasite 7122
at another nuclear plant. The changes also failed to l
consider adverse effects that could be caused by a
coating procured and applied without 10 CFR Part 50, ,
'
Appendix B controls.
In September 1985. defective coatjng was found again in
the SWS, this time by e, paint foreman, and was documented
on TV Electric Operations Problem Report (PR)85-532,
eventually becoming construction deficiency CP-86-07. '
The inspector found that the NRC was not notified of this !
'
deficiency until January 23, 1986, and then only after
weld failures due to corrosion were identified in SWS t
!
piping. This led to replacement of some piping and
repairs to Plasite using Belzona coating (PR 85-532 and f
TU Electric memorandum TIM-860454 dated April 1986). ;
TU Electric's 50.55(e) report SDAR CP-86-07 (TXX-4672) ;
I
stated that normally the coating failure was not
considered a safety issue and that inservice inspection h
would detect piping integrity loss and that defective ,
areas in the Plasite liner would be repaired with Belzona l

(a cora;nic coating). NRC IR 50-445/88-34; 50-446/88-30
questioned the control of the application of Bolzona and
l other coatings because all site applied coatings were
still considered nonsafety related.
On February 24, 1986, the initial written report for
deficiency CP-86-07 was sent to the NRC. After numerous
interim reports on Unit 1 SWS, in report TXX 88476 (dated
June 22, 1988) the applicant stated that the entire i
Plasite liner and Boltona coating would be removed. The
NRC inspector reviewed Stone & Webstor Engineering
Corporation (SWEC) correspondence along with a formal
corrosion report. Wisconsin Protective Coating
Corporation examined the Plasite pipe liner and found
extensive failures in the Plasito caused by porosity, ;
excessive thickness, and lack of pipe surfnce
preparation. The corrosion report described 1/16 to
1/8-inch diameter blisters uniformly distributed and
spaced 3/8-inch apart and a few 1/2 to 3-inches apart.
All of the blisters broke while 7, crapping a putty knife
across them. Microbiologically induced corrosion (MIC)
was found in the carbon and stainless steel piping which
can cause pin holes and drips. The report stated that )
the shop or vendor applied coating was adherent with .
small blisters, but the site applied coatings werc !
degrading. A few pits were present in Unit 1 piping ;
'
which had been repaired with Belzona. The report str ..
in part, "Due to the Belzona coating repairs, mease' & nan-
of pits which may have formed previously is not i
possible." SWEC memo SWTU-4770 recommended Plasitt l
l
removal, a corrosion program to baseline ths extent l
corrosion, selected piping replacement, and that all
' piping should be weld repaired where it was less than the
specified thickness. SWEC Corrosion Report (SWTU-7749)
was issued in November 1987 and it extensively reported
on the liner failures, the corrosion mechanisms, and the ,
defects. SWEC letter (SWTU-7749 dated April 8, 1988)
specifically cautioned: "Excessive pipe wall i
thinning . . . must be avoided."
The NRC inspector concluded the followings
'
j (1) The first deficiency (CP-80-07) was inadequately
l
cvaluated relative to not applying QA/QC controls to
l the site procurement and application of Plasite and .
relative to possible sheet mode f ailure which might ;
!
result in blockage of the coolant flow p:th.
l
'
(2) There is no evidence (in reports TXX-3229 and 3218
l
for CP-80-07) that the piping was extensively ;
l inspected to determine if failures occurred in other '
!
areas of about 15000 linear feet of SWS piping in i

Unit 1 and 2. Therefore, the first daficiency was
concluded to be not reportable without knowing the
extent of the coating defects.
(3) There is no evidence that an effective inservice
inspection program was established in procedures
between 1980 and 1985. During the six years of
operation and lay up, the system degraded to the
'
point that the Plasite had to be removed.
(4) Concerning the second deficiency (CP-86-07), the NRC
was not notified in a timely manner. That is, the
NRC was not notified from September 1985 until i
January 23, 1986. On February 24, 1986,
deficiency CP-86-07 was reported (TXX-4711). The *
issue of untimely evaluation of noncenforming !
'
conditions and reporting of significant construction
deficiencies under 50.55(e) wap addressed by the NRC f
in 1987 in Inspection Reports (IR) 50-445/87-07, t
50-446/87-06; IR 50-445/87-08; IR 50-445/87-10, t
50-446/87-08; and IR 50-445/87-18, 50-446/87-10. An
enforcement conference was held and a violation was -
issued.
(5) "TU Electric Task Description of the Protective
Coatings Program conducted by Ebasco Services, Inc., I
CPE-TD-EB-088," Revision 4, dated October 2, 1987,
'
did not describe the inspeccion of corrosion defects
performed by Ebasco engineers prior to the coating !
being removed or the mapping of such defects for a l
baseline corrosion program. This is comparable to
TU Electric's failure to adequately preplan for the '
coating removal work. (See paragraph 3.a). (
(6) Neither the TU Electric deficiency reports for l
CP-86-07 nor a Corrective Action Report (CAR) *
addressed the cause of the SWS pipe liner *
deterioration between 1980 and 1985. Neither
addressed the lack of QA/QC controls (for site
4 upplied Plasite 7122), the inadequate evaluation by ;
G&H (in light of information in SER 6883 and
IEN 85-24 which reported problems with Plasite), and r
the inadequate inservice inspections (which allowed l
extensive coating failure / corrosion of piping to
proceed). l
(7) TU Electric's final deficiency report (TXX-88476) !
,
did not specifically discuss the localized attack on i
the SWS pipe wall that occurred under the blisters i

The NRC belicycs the poor ovaluation of the coating
defects in 1980 and 1985, the poor evaluations of the
INPO SER and the NRC Information Notico, and the failura '
to take adequate corrective action reficct the problems
this utility had in that timo framo. Furthermore, the
NRC believes this poor work also set the stage for the
poor utility performance described in paragraph 3.
Doficiencies CP-80-07 and CP-86-07 are closed for Unit 1,
and 2 based on this inspection and the violation
identified in paragraph 3.
b. Follow-up on Previous Insp?pf, ion Findings (92701)
on May 2, 1988, the NRC 1: qtor observed work activity
relative to removing the i r. ; from Train A piping. NRC
s
Inspection Report 50-445/N J4; 50-446/88-30 (for May
1988) documented two unresolved and five open items ;
concerning the coating removal and the identification and
disposition of defects (pitting from corrovien plus wall
thinning from sandblasting). The status of carb item
follows: -
(1) (Closed) Unresolved Item (445/8834-U-01;
446/8830-U-01): Downgrading of coating requirements
in Specifications MS-43B and MS-100 to a non-Q
classification. This concern is included in the
violation in paragraph 3.a.
l
'2) (open) Open Item (445/8834-o-02; 446/8830-0-02): l
Inadequate eveluation of INPO SER 6683 and '
IEN 85-24. Tno NRC inspector believes that the
Institute of Nuclear Power Operation significant
event report and NRC Information Notico should have i
been evaluated in greater depth considering the fact
that Plasits . Alures at Palo Verde had caused ,
clogging of safety-related equipment which was l
essential for safe plant shutcown. TU Electric
evaluations depended too heavily on a 1980 G&H
evaluation. .
The NRC inspector mot with the supervisors l
responsible for such ovaluations. Retrospectively, ;
they agreed that the evaluations, prior to 1986, l
were weak. They stated that they would review such '
notices received prior to 1986 to assure that others
were properly evaluated. This item remains open
pending the completion of this review. IEN 85-24,
however, is considered closed. See paragraph 4.
(3) (closed) Open Item (445/8834-o-03; 446/8830-o-03):
The inspector had identified a concern with the
l
i
i'
' *
- .
.
8
Belzona repaired areas and the applicant's
identification of the surface defects inside the
piping.
This concern is included in the violation in
paragraph 3.c.
(4) (closed) open Item (445/8834-0-04; 446/8830-0-04):
NRC follow-up inspection of how residual areas of
Plasite liner were measured to ensure that the
ecceptance criteria were met. This concern is
included in the violation in paragraph 3.c.
(5) (Closed) Open Item (445/8834-0-05; 446/8830-0-05):
Possible blockage of safety-related equipment by
loose residual coating. The NRC inspector was
provided a semiquantitative measurement of residual
Plasite and Belzona. On June 20, 1988, the
inspector was informed that calculations showed that
if all the conting remaining in the SWS system after
the ccating removal failed at once, it would amount
to only a cupful and would be of no concern. The
calculations appear to be consistent with the
observations made by the NRC inspectors while
examining the piping internal surface. This item is
closed.
(6) (Closed) Unresolved Item (445/8834-U-06;
446/8830-U-06): The NRC inspector had identified a
concern that the sandblaster might remain in one
area long enough to cause wall thinning and that
this condition might go undetected. This concern is
included in the violation in paragraph 3.b.
(7) (closed) open Item (445/8834-0-07; 446/8830-0-07):
Need for a FSAR change to duscribe residual Plasite
and Belzona in the SWS. As stated in paragraph (5),
TU Electric found that about only a cupful of
Plasite and almost no Bolzona would remain after
liner removal. The NRC inspectcr determined that
this small amount is negligible and there is no need
to describe it in the FSAR. This item is closed.
3. Removal of Plasite/Belzona from Unit 1 SWS Piping (49061,
49063, 49065)
On May 2, 1988, the NRC inspector first observed O. B. Cannon
Company & Sons, Inc., (OBC) removing the Plasite 7122 liner
from the 10, 24, and 30-inch SWS piping. Section 9.2.1 and
Tabic 17A-1 of Section 17.0 of the FSAn describes and
classifies this system as safety related. The piping and
components are American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)

Divisi'on 1,Section III, Class 3. The SWS system
operationally supports other ASME III, Class 2 and 3 systems.
That is, the SWS removes heat from the emergency diesel
generators and component cooling water system heat exchangers.
The SWS also supplies cooling water to the safety injection
centrifugal charging pump lube oil coolers and containment
spray pump bearing oil coolers. The SWS supplies cooling
water during normal operations and after a postulated loss of
coolant accident.
OBC began the work on Train A on April 11, 1988, and continued
until Train B was completed on July 8, 1988. OBC demobilized
and left the site on July 13, 1988. At this point TU Electric
considered the work on approximately 7400 linear feet of
Unit 1 SWS piping to be complete and acceptable.
Two types of equipment were used for the abrasive blast
operations: an automatic pull-through spin-blaster and
standard hand-held blasting nozzles. The spin-blaster blows
an abrasive grit through two centrifugally rotating blast ,
'
nozzles 180 degrees apart as the unit is pulled through the
10-inch piping. Standard blast nozzles (of varying sizes) are
hand-held to remove the Plasite from the 24- and 30-inch !
piping. Respostively, the nominal vall thickness 10 , 24 ,
and 30-inch diameter are 0.365, 0.375, and 0.375 inches. The
manufacturer's minimum wall thickness is 0.875 times the
nominal except for the 30-inch pipe which is no less than
0.375 inches. In order to limit the Amount of metal removed, -
engineering had performed blast tests and concluded that only
0.012 inches of metal would be removed if the spin-blaster
stalled for two minutes. The tests also indicated that 0.005
inches (average) would be removed if the spin-blaster was
pulled at the rate of 3-inches per minute.
'
During this inspection, the NRC inspector reviewed the '
procurement documents, procedures, records concerning the "
removal of the coating, identification of corrosion defects,
and corrective action. In addition, the NRC inspector crawled
through about 900 feet of 24 and 30-inch piping between the
,
service water intake structure and the component cooling water
'
heat exchanger and observed multiple pitting defects caused by
corrosion. The worst defects were mainly at weld joints where
the coating had been applied by the site contractor but were
randomly found elsewhere in the SWS piping. Most of the
pitting was dish shaped. Where the NRC inspector entered the
piping in the Service Water Intake (SWI) structure,
TU Electric pointed out the pipe wall that had severely
corroded and the location of one pit which the depth of
-
exceeded 0.125 inches. Also, another weld which was
approximately 50 foot into the piping had a defect that
l appeared to have lack of penetration, corrosion and crosion.

TU Electric identified these prior to the NRC inspector's
inspection and generated a nonconformance .:eport (NCR).
Criterion II, "Quality Assurance Program," of Appendix B to
10 CFR 50 and Section 2.0, Revision 0, of the TU Electric QA
Manual states, in part: "The quality assurance program shall
provide control over activities affecting the quality of the
identified structures, systems, and components, to an extent
consistent with their importance to safety. Activities
affecting quality shall be accomplished under suitably
controlled conditions. Controlled conditions include the use
of appropriate equipment; suitable environmental conditions
for accomplishing the activity, such as adequate cleanness;
and assurance that all prerequisites for the given activity
have been satisfied. The program shall take into account the
need for special controls, processes, test equipment, tools,
and skills to attain the required quality, and the need for
verification of quality by inspection and test. The program
shall provide for indoctrination and training of personnel
performing activities affecting quality as necessary to assure
that suitable proficiency is achieved and maintained."
The inspector found that QA/QC and technical concerns and
requirements discussed in preprocurement meetings were not
addressed in the requisition or purchase order issued to
O. B. Cannon. Work and inspection activities began before
procedures were established, procedures for work and
inspection activities were inadequate, special process
procedures were not established to provide adequate controls,
inspection was inadequate, testing was not properly conducted,
nonconforming conditions were not identified and properly
evaluated, and corrective action was not taken relative to NRC
identified items. The NRC inspector is unaware of a QA or
technical document that consolidates and considers all of the
information, recommendations, and corrective actions in i
problem report 85-532 and the memorandum TIM-860454.
It appears that TU Electric failed to establish adequate QA/QC
and technical controls in procurement documents; failed to
provide adequate control of the special process; failed to
provide adequate inspections and process monitoring of the ,
work activity; and failed to take prompt and effective
corrective action in May, June, or July. This is an apparent
violation of Criterion II of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50
(445/8847-V-01). This violation is sapported by the following
examples: ,

requirements which are necessary to assure adequate
quality are included or referenced in the documents for
the procurement of material, equipment, and services.
(1) Paragraph 6 2 and 6.2.8.2 of Engineering Purchasing
Procedure ECE-6.02-03, Revision 1, "Engineering
Review of Procurement Documents," states, in part,
"Figure 7.1 and the procurement requisition must
define all technical, qua '_ty assurance and
documentation requirements clearly and explicitly."
The technical and QA/QC requirements to control the
Plasite removal from SWS piping are discussed in the
minutes of the March 14, 1988, meeting for the
requisition and purchase order (PO) CP-794.
However, these requirements were not adequately
considered and included in the TQAR package,
services review summary, critical characteristics,
and verification plaa. At the subject meeting
concerns were expressed by attendees about not
meeting requirements such as: QA/QC level of
responsibi' y; noldpoints/ inspections; spinblaster
pull rates Other measurements and surveillance,
ultrasonic test (UT) examination of a small number
of points would not give a good overview of entire
system cleanliness and metal removal; decrease in
pressure over distance; UT of accessible areas to
verify metal removal; sample program procedures not
setup to give exact pull rato and pressure; control
of hand-held sandblaster; and need for additional UT
as QA/QC surveillance would not be available during
blasting; UT acceptance criteria; and the
possibility that grease might remain on the pipe
inner surface after blasting.
Purchase requisition 6R-350338 failed to clearly and
explicitly define the technical and QA requirements
in the TQAR package, and services review summary
(which also includes verification plans and critical
characteristic information per Procedure
ECE-6.02-I2, Revision 0).
'
The original QA requirement on page 2 of requisition
6R-350338 had been crossed out, initialed, and dated
(March 25, 1988). The deletion consisted of the
following: "The entire blasting operation shall be
under TU Electric's Quality Assurance Plan." On
page 4, another TU Electric QA responsibility was
,
i
similarly crossed out. On page 5, c note was added
relative to contacting a TU Electric representative
to schedule QA surveillance activities prior to
performing work. The TQAR package was not clear as

to who had. full responsibility and did not
explicitly explain QA/QC and technical controls.
The TQAR form did not discuss all quality assurance
program requirements. TU Electric QA
responsibilities for the entire blasting operation
were eliminated from the requisition and purchase
order description (except for monitoring coating
removal). Instead, an Ebasco engineering group was
assigned the responsibility only for referenced
holdpoints for engineering inspections, without
clear requirements for quality assurance.
In the requisition package the Verification Plan
form was attached to a critical characteristics
Evaluation form. The verification plan was
orig!nally signed on March 21, 1988, and TU Electric
QA was listed as the responsible group that would
examine coating removal and critical defects.
However, on March 25, 1988, a procurement engineer
crossed out the listed QA responsible group and
replaced it with Ebasco protective coatings
engineer.
The approval block on requisition 6R-350338 had
10 signatures for original revie'; and approval. On
March 25, 1988, important changes were made to the
requisition; however, all of the original
signatories did not review and approve these
changes. The singular initial placed next to the
changes was not identified as one of the original
reviewers. In addition, althoulh Ebasco engineering
was assigned QA/QC and tecnnice..i responsibilities,
no Ebasco signature was found.
(2) Paragraph 3.1.c "Intended Use" of Purchasing
i Procedure 5.0-2, Revision 1, requires the
requisition to list applicable work document numbers
'
(of nonconformance/ deficiency / corrective action
reports and design change / modification documents). ;
- The NRC inspector determined that requisition
l
6R-350338 did not reference Problem Report 85-532;
nonconformance report (NCR) 88-00820, Revision 0, ,
dated January 12, 1988; and Design Modification i
"
Request-Construction Phase (DMRC) 88-1-020 which was
the approval to remove the Plasite liner. The 1985 l
problem report and the 1987 coating walkdowns I
'
contained corrosion defect mapping (qualitative in
some cases as depth was approximated), and other l
,
corrective actions that impacted the evaluation of
corrosion defects after coating removal in 1988.

(3) Paragraph 6.2.5 "ASME Classification" of
ECE-6.02-03, Revision 1, states, in part, "The
(Responsible Engineer) RE shall determine the
appropriate ASME classification (Section III or XI)
which establishes the requirements to which a
particular service is to be performed."
The NRC inspector found that for requisition
6R-350338, the RE assumed that the coating removal
could not affect ASME Class 3 piping. This
conclusion was incorrect since metal was to be
removed from the pipe by blasting; therefore, the
ASME block on the requisition should have been
checked to inform the authorized nuclear inspector
that such work would be accomplished. Figure 7.1 of
Engineering Procedure ECE 6.02-03 contains three
blocks titled ASME III, ASME XI, and NA. This
figure was attached to the requisition and was
marked not applicable.
The NRC inspector reviewed the ASME Code, consulted
with other NRC inspectors, and held meetings with
the State of Texas and authorized nuclear inspectors
(ANI). The NRC concluded that TU Electric should
have notified the ANI on site of the intent to
remove metal from an ASME piping system to allow
voluntary or required ANI inspections. The
following is the basis for that conclusion.
I Section IWA-2140 of.ASME Section XI, dated July 1,
1974, statos: "The owner shall arrange for an
Inspector to have access to all parts of the plant
necessary for making the required inspection. The
owner shall koop the Inspector informed of the
progress of the preparatory work necessary to permit
! inspections and shall notify him reasonably in
advance when the components will be ready for any
required inspection."
Section IWA-2120 of ASME Section XI, same dato,
i states: "It is the duty of the Inspector to assure
himself that the examinations and tests required for
Class 3 components and systems (IWD-1000) have been
conducted and the results recorded . . . . The
Inspector shall review the repair program to
determino compliance with the requirements of this
Division."
,
I The NRC inspector interviewed the ANI for Section XI
and datormined that he was not informed of
preparatory work; therefore, was not provided an
I
opportunity to perform voluntary or required
I

14
inspections of the sandblasting process to assure
.that excessive metal was not removed along with the
plasite coating. He was also not made aware of a
0.012-inch metal removal allowance. No work order
or traveler was processed. Therefore, no ANI input
or inspection of the recently completed work on
Train A was possibl.e.
This failure to properly establish and define all QA/QC
and technical requirements and reference the work
'
documents is a violation of Criterion IV of Appendix B to
10 CFR Part 50 and Section 4.0, Revision 0, of
TU Electric QA Manual (445/8847-V-01.a).
b. Failure to Control Special Processes
Criterion IX of Appendix B to 10 CFR 50 requires that
measures be established to assure that special processes
are controlled and accomplished by qualified personnel
using qualified procedures in accordance with applicable
codes, standards, specifications, criteria, and other
special requirements.
The NRC inspector found that the measures established to
control the special process of removing the coating from
the SWS piping were inadequate. As a result a 1/2-inch
hole was sandblasted through the pipe wall in one place
and several other deep sandblasting indentations were
made in the 10-inch piping.
(1) O. B. Cannon Procedure, Construction Procedure
QCP-1, Revision 2, "Coating Removal by Abrasive
Blasting of Interior of Station Service Water
Piping," dated April 18, 1988, was originally issued
on March 23, 1988. The NRC inspector found that the
Procedure QCP-1, Revision 2, does not prescribe any
of the specific paramotors or give detailed
instructions concerning required air pressure, type
abrasive, required rate for pulling the spin blaster
l
through 10-inch piping, rate of change of pulling l
versus distance, and qualification of operators l
based o.1 parameters developed by Sandblast Tests.
(2) Construction and engineering Procedures ACP-10.1,
,
Revision 1, "Preparation, Approval, and Control of
Construction Operation Travelers," and ECC 2.13-5,
Revision 4, "Construction Traveler," require the use
of travelers to document the disassembly of
previously completed components by providing
instructions and points that should be inspected,
verified, monitored, and/or witnessed. ihe NRC
(
,
l
.

.
inspector found that no traveler or work order was
used to control this work.
(3) The NRC inspector determined that paragraph 6.9 of
EME 3.21-08, "Engineering Verification of Protective
Coatings Applied to Steel Surfaces Subject to
Immersion Service," Revision 0, was inadequate
because it did not discuss how the rate of
sandblasting would be monitored. The NRC inspector
found that the engineers who tested the various
techniques had verbally instructed OBC personnel to
contact engineering before exceeding the blasting
time in an area or if the rate of travel dropped
below a minimum rate when traveling through the
10-inch piping or if blaster problems were
encountered. Yet, to the contrary, a TU Electric
memorandum NP-6633 dated March 18, 1988, stated that
no further monitoring of pipe wall thinning was
necessary.
(4) DCA 73794, dated April 26, 1988, changed the
instructions and the acceptance criteria in OBC
Procedure QCP-1, Revision 2 dated April 18, 1988.
TU Electric QA Manual, Section 6.0, Revision 0,
requires that such changes be controlled. The DCA
changed the critoria from "The abrasive blasting
operation shall leave the surface of all piping free
of paint . . . ." to ". . . except slight shadows,
streaks, discolorations from residual paint or small
tightly adherent coated areas; i.e., 10-1/4"
diameter speck 1cs por square foot or areas 1/4" in
dimension of length no longer than the corresponding
internal pipo circumference."
The NRC inspector found that paragraph 9.1 of QCP-1
was not revised to include the now criteria. All
work was accomplished without this criteria being
in the O. B. Cannon procedure.
(5) The NRC inspector learned ehat nondestructivo
ultrasonic testing had been performed through the
paint on the outside of SWS piping in order to
measure pitting depth on the inside of piping
without considering that the thickness of paint had
the potential to cause UT measurement error. In a
June 20, 1988, meeting, TU Electric confirmed that
corrosion defects had been measured by UT through
the paint.
Subsequently, TU Electric selected detects in the
wall previously measured and performed UT to
dotormine the depth of the defects. When
. _ _ - _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ -
(,,--

.
16
TU Electric retested without paint, they found an
error was introduced by the paint. This practice is
similar to a violation that was previously
identified and documented in NRC IR 50-445/88-20;
50-446/88-17 dated April 22, 1988.
The failure to estan..sh adequate controls of the special
process for the coating removal is a violation of
Criterion IX of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 and
TU Electric QA Manual, Section 9.0, Revision 0
(445/8847-V-01.b).
c. Failure to Provide Adequate OA/OC Procedures
Criterion X of Appendix B requires a program for
inspection of activities affecting quality to bc
established and executed to verify conformance with
documented instructions, procedures, and drawings for
accomplishing the activity. It requires inspection and
process monitoring when control is inadequate without
both.
Comanche Peak Engineering Procedure EME 3.21-08 is the
procedure that implements the technical and QA
requirements of Appendix B to 10 CFR.Part 50. It covers
qualification of engineers, verification records,
deficiency reporting, and sandblasting to bare metal.
This procedure was originally developed (September 1987)
to verify the application of coatings to steel surfaces
subject to immersion service but Engineering Document
Change Notice (EDCN) No. 3, dated May 6, 1988, added
paragraph 6.9 to reflect the removal of coating from the
SWS piping. The paragraph concerning the removal of
Plasite is approximately one-half page long. The NRC
inspector determined that the subject proceduro and
implementation woro inadequate as follows:
(1) Requisition 6R-350338 package for OBC services
stated that residual coating and damage to piping
caused by pitting or rust were critical defects.
The NRC inspector determined that paragraph 6.9 of
EME 3.21-98 did not discuss or describe how such
critical defects would be identified and no criteria
for acceptance was provided.
The NRC inspector learned that SWEC engineers
performed visual inspections without procedures.
In addition to having no critoria in a procedure for
inspecting defects inside the 10-inch piping, the
NRC inspector found that SWEC engineers had visually
inspected the pipe for defects using video tapes of
the pipe interior and had accepted the piping and
.
f!T
'

,
returned it to service. A 1/2-inch hole in tha pipe
wall and several other defects caused by the blaster
were not detected when SWEC engineers reviewed the
video tapes of the inside:of Train A piping
(10-inch). The hole in the pipe wall was identified
when the SWS piping was filled with water. The SWEC
ongineers performing the visual inspection were not
certified to ANSI N45.2.6 requirements in regards to
special inspection methods.
On August 1, 1988, TU Electric stated that they had
found that they had misidentified the video tapes-
for the 10-inch SWS piping entering and exiting the
diesel generator building. The defect locations
were reversed when the video tapes were reviewed.
(2) On July 18, 1988, the NRC inspector discussed the
TU Electric inspection of Train B piping with
TU Electric QC and licensing compliance personnel.
The inspector believes the current inspection of the
piping pits and blister indentations is not in
accordance with ASME Section.XI. This code requires
a visual inspection to identify defects and
surface / volumetric examination to assure that the
extent of the defect is known. To date only
measurements with a depth gauge have been made to
measure possible violations of the manufacturers and
code minimum wall thickness.
(3) EDCN No. 3 to EME 3.21-08 was approved May 6, 1988; i
however, the inspection process was initiated about
a month earlier (April 11, 1988). The NRC inspector
observed work being completed on May 2, 1988, before
the QC procedure was established or implemented. i
(4) Paragraph 6.9 of Proceduro EME 3.21-08 stated the
removal of coating shall be inspected in accordance
with Specification MS-100. The NRC inspector notes
that this specification contains a general section
on QA/QC and an Appendix C which addressos Level D
cleanliness. This Appendix also prescribes the size
of areas of residual coating that can remain on the
inside of the piping.
The NRC inspector determined that during the removal
of coating from Train A piping an accurate method
for measuring the residual coating remains in the
piping did not exist. At a June 20, 1988, meeting
on SWS coating removal, TU Electric made a
presentation and specifically addressed their

methodology for measuring the remaining coating.
They showed that a clear plastic "mockup" could
simulate areas of residual coating that could be
compared with observations by video camera / tape
inside the 10-inch piping. However, according to
site supervision the methodology to measure the
residual coating inside the 10-inch piping was
developed about 2 1/2 months after work began.
Furthermore, a procedure which would include a.
plastic overlay as a standard to judge the size of
the residual coating areas recorded on the video
tape had not been prepared.
(5) The NRC inspector found no test procedure 1 for the
O. B. Cannon sandblast-tests 1-4. However,
paragraph 5.4 of O. B. Cannon Procedure QCP-1
discusses sandblast testing.
The failure to provide adequate inspection procedures and
process monitoring to assure the quality of the special
process and the piping system is a violation of
Criterion X of Appendix B to-10 CFR Part 50 and
Section 10.0, Revision 0, of TU Electric QA Manual
(445/8847-V-01.c).
d. Failure to Take Corrective Action
Criterion XVI of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 and
TU Electric QA Manual, Section 16.0, Revicion 0, requires
that conditions adverso to quality be promptly identified
and corrected.
The NRC inspector first raised concerns to TU Electric
project management in regards to the adequacy of coating
removal QA/QC controls on May 2, 1988. On May 27, 1988,
the NRC inspector completed a review of the SWEC
Corrosion Report and raised specific technical concerns
about the removal of the coating and corrosion defects:
(1) was a metallurgical analysis of pitting performed to
deterraine whether microscopic cracks exist, (2) woro all
such defects identified and measured to dotormine if
manufacturer's minimum wall was violated, (3) was the
control of the sandblasting process adequate to prevent
wall thinning / damage, (4) was the amount of coating
remaining after gritblasting within specification, and
(5) where were QA/QC controls related to coating
removal / defect identification proscribed? The control of
the gritblasting process was a contral issue.
'
On or about May 30, 1988, the NRC inspector reviewed the
construction deficiency files (CP-80-07 and CP-86-07
previously discussed) and raised concerns about the

downgrading of G&H specifications MS-43B and MS-100.
(See paragraph 2.) Specifically, the inspector's concern
was the effect that nonsafety-related material (i.c., the
introduccion of contaminants) could have on
safety-related systems. The inspector was also concerned
that TU Electric project management seemed to think that
because the coating was non-Q, work activities including
the coating removal were, therefore, non-Q without
considering the effects on Q-systems. This concern
continued on through meetings on June 20, July 13, and
August 2, 1988.
The NRC inspector observed no comprehensive and effcetive
corrective action concerning the lack of QA/QC program
and technical controls previously identified by the NRC.
At all the meetings, the NRC inspector was informed by
TU Electric that the coating removal and defect
identification were properly controlled.
On August 1, 1988, TU Electric notified the NRC that they
had detected a leak in a section of 10-inch SWS piping.
It was removed and sectioned for visual inspectjun. It
appears that the leak was caused by the sandblaster l
because there was one 1/2-inch diameter hole through the !
0.365 wall thickness and 180 degrees around the
circumference of the insido diameter there was another
defect where the wall was extensively worn. This would
duplicate positions on either end of the spinblast nozzle
if it stuck and ceased te spin. The defect configuration
also suggests that if the blastor nozzlo stuck, the
pulling was stopped or else there would have been a
longitudinal groovo instead of a round hole. By
August 2, 1988, other similar defects were found, but the
total number and locations woro not available.
The failuro to promptly identify and correct the QA/QC
and technical deficienclos identified by the NRC is a
violation of Critorion XVI (445/8847-V-01.d).
Since the end of the inspection period, pieces of Train A
piping have been cut out and sectioned for detailed
examination. See the photos on page 21.
c. New Open Items Concerning SWS piping
(1) The NRC inspector learned at the end of the July
1988 inspection period that minimum wall violations
on the outside of the piping had not been evaluated.
During construction, surface defecta had been
identified on the outside of the SWS piping and
dispositioned "uso-as-is." Now, internal defects
have boon identified. It is not clear how SWEC
( c o o
. .
,
20
calcul&ted the stresses and returned Train A to
service when they did not know if the outside
defects and the inside defects might align and be
additive. SWEC was reviewing this data after the
SWS was returned to service. Since all new defects
were net mapped, it is unclear as to how a corrosion
monitoring program can be established. This item is
open pending the completion of the TU Electric
review of this matter (445/8847-0-02).
(2) Paragraph 3.1.f of Purchasing Procedure NPI-5.0-2
requires the entry of a QA code on the requisition
by engineering. The NRC inspector believes that the
"quality" determination should be the responsibility
of a quality assurance organization, not an
engineering responsibility. If the engineering
organization specifies the level of quality to be
applied, the decision could be affected by cost and
schedule considerations.- Also, the designating
engineer may not have sufficient expertise in
quality assurance to know the appropriate level of
quality assurance required. This is an open item
pending TU Electric consideration (445/8847-0-03).
4. Action on NRC Informatio,n__ Notice (IN) 85-24 - Plasite Liner
(92700)
The NRC inspector reviewed the files and action taken
concerning IN 85-24 which pertained to Plasite 7122 failure in
SWS piping. This item is closed based on the inspection
described above.
5. Open Items
Open items are matters which have been discussed with the
applicant, which will be reviewed further by the inspector,
and which involve some action on the part of the NRC or
applicant or both. Two e s en items disclosed during the
inspection are discussed in paragraph 3.e.fi) and (2).
6. Exit Meeting (30703)
An exit meeting was conducted August 2, 1988, with the
applicant's representatives identified in paragraph 1 of this
report. No written material was provided to the applicant by
the inspectors during this reporting period. The applicant
did not identify att proprietary any of the materials provided
to or reviewed by the inspectors during this inspection.
l
During this meeting, the NRC inspectors summarized the scope
and findings of the inspection.
