1.0 DESCRIPTION
OF ISSUES The title of this Action Plan does not accurately reflect the scope of work which is addressed, but is utilized in order to correspond to the specific heading in the NRC letter dated September 18, 1984.
The actuai scope of work includes all preoperational test data packages and FSAR commitment compliance.
1.1 Hot Functional Testing 1
The NRC-TRT described the issue'in the CPSES Safety Evaluation Report, Supplement No. 7 at Pages J-73 through J-75, Item 4.(6), " Assessment of Safety Significance." The full text of the NRC-TRT description of the issue is presented in
. and is summarized as follows:
(a) Hot functional test procedure 1CP-PT-02-12. " Bus Voltage and Load Survey," had been completed.
Subsequently, changes were made to the transformer tap settings. The JTG (Joint Test Group) decided a retest was not required.
(b) Hot functional test procedure (CP-PT-34-05, " Steam Generator Narrow Range Level Verificaticn." was performed with three temporary level transmitters.
When the permanent transmitters were installed, the JTG
-specified only a cold calibration retest.
(c) Hot functional test procedure 1CP-PT-55-05,
" Press'urizer Level Control," was performed with a defective level transmitter. When the transmitter was replaced, the JTG specified'only a cold calibratien retest.
l (d) Hot functional test procedure 1CP-PT-55-05,
" Pressurizer Level Control:" the speed of a chart recording device was changed without being documented on a test deficiency report (TDR).
The NRC-TRT summarized the issue at Page J-13, Item 3.2.3,
" Findings for Test Program Issues," as follows:
...the TRT found that three HFT data packages were approved by the TUEC Joint Test Group (JTG) that failed to meet all of the'objec_tives stated in the test procedures.

1.0 DESCRIPTION
OF ISSUES (Cont'd)
The NRC-TRT conclusions with regard to the issue are at Page J-76, " Conclusion and Staff Positions," as follows:
...It appeared that the overall objectives of the CPSES Unit 1 preoperational test program were being satisfactorily met, thus providing reasonable assurance that the plant is properly designed and constructed and that its operation will not pose a threat to public health and safety. While some of the allegations had valid basis, none was considered to have safety significance or generic implications.
1.2 FSAR Chapter 14.2, " Initial Test Program," Review As described in ICAP III.b, " Containment Integrated Leak Rate Test," Revision 4, the NRC-TRT expressed concern that there may be undocumented deviations from testing commitments made in the FSAR.
While ISAP III.b focuses exclusively on the test which gave rise to the issue, the CPRT determined that it would be appropriate to address the NRC-TRT's concern relating to other FSAR commitments during the evaluation of approved test data packages to be undertaken in this Action Plan.
2.0 ACTIONS IDENTIFIED BY NRC 2.1 Hot Functional Testing The actions identified by the NRC-TRT in the CPSES Safety Evaluation Report, Supplement No. 7 at Page J-17 Item 4.2.1,
" Hot Functional Testing," as being necessary to resolve this issue are as follows:
Review all completed preoperational test data packages to ensure there are no instances where test objectives were not met, or prerequisite conditions were not satisfied. Address the four items identified by the TRT, along with appropriate resolution.

3.0 BACKGROUND
Startup Administrative Procedure, CP-SAP-16, " Test Deficiency and Nonconformance Reporting," establishes requirements for the use of Test Deficiency Reports (TDRs). TDRs are issued when unacceptable or indeterminate conditions exist in system or equipment operating characteristics, test documentation, or for any testing procedure noncompliance. TDRs contain a description of the specific problem, the corrective action required, and/or the retesting necessary to resolve the problem.
For example, when the initial conditions described in a procedure cannot be met because permanent plant equipment is not installed, a TDR may be initiated to document the condition and to establish corrective action and/or retest requirements for the equipment. The consequence of proceeding with a test with outstanding TDRs is evaluated by CPSES management. The retests are specified by considering the objective of the preoperational test, function of the specific equipment, and the station test schedule which determines whether other opportunities will be available for the retest.
Startup Administrative Procedure, CP-SAP-12 " Deviations to Test Instructions / Procedures," allows deviations from approved test procedures when certain approval and documentation requirements are met.
The form used to document such deviations is known as a Test Procedure Deviation (TPD). The level of management approval required depends upon whether or not the TPD involves a change in procedure intent.
Both TDRs and TPDs become part of the completed test record reviewed by the JTG prior to acceptance of the test results.
The JTG consists of representatives from the major onsite organizations. TUGC0 has organized the JTG to assure effective coordination of the engineering, construction, and operations activities related to the startup program.

3.0 BACKGROUND
(Cont'd)
The JTG consists of the following members :
Manager, Nuclear Operations - Chairman Manager, Plant Operations - Vice-Chairman Manager - CPSES Startup Assistant Manager - Nuclear Engineering Westinghouse Representative The JTG membership is knowledgeable of the plant design, FSAR requirements, and the test program administrative requirements and procedures. The group has sufficient organizational freedom and diversity to assure that objectivity will be maintained.
The NRC-TRT reviewed all but seven of the JTG-approved preoperational test data packages associated with hot functional testing. The NRC-TRT also reviewed two of the five acceptance test data packages. These acceptance tests were non-safety-related and no concern was expressed with respect to this category of tests.
In Revision 3 and previous revisions to ISAP III.b. " Containment Integrated Leak Rate Test," the approach to the FSAR commitment compliance review was to examine additional FSAR sections if discrepancies were noted in the test program commitments. This Action Plan examines the test program related commitments.
FSAR compliance considerations related to the design and construction of CPSES are being conducted unde; the Design Adequacy and Quality of Construction Programs described in Appendix A and B, respectively, to the CPRT Program Plan.
4.0 CPRT ACTION PLAN The objective of this Action Plan is two fold:
a) to provide reasonable assurance that the CPSES preoperational testing program was and is being accomplished according to applicable Regulatory Guides, FSAR commitments, Startup Administrative Procedures, and individual test procedures; and b) to satisfactorily resolve the four specific concerns identified by the NRC-TRT.
1 An FSAR Amendment is currently being prepared for submittal to the NRC which changes some of these position titles. However, the same organizations were and continue to be represented.

The approach to the work is as follows: develop criteria for the evaluation of completed test data packages; evaluate the three test data packages and resolve the NRC-TRT concerns related thereto; and evaluate the remaining test data packages not reviewed by the NRC-TRT.
4.1.1 Criteria Development The evaluation of completed test data packages will be conducted using written acceptance criteria.
(These criteria have been developed and are presented in, " Criteria for Evaluation of Completec Test Data Packages.")
4.1.2 NRC-TRT Identified Concerns The three test data packages cited in Section 1.0 will be evaluated. The four specific concerns identified by the NRC-TRT will be resolved.
4.1.3 Evaluation of Twenty-seven Test Data Packages Shortly after receipt of the NRC letter dated September 18, 1984, the CPRT initiated a programmatic evaluation of approved test data packages. The approach used at that time consisted of evaluating the seven HFT related packages not reviewed by the TRT and a sample of twenty other packages considered most safety-significant.
4.1.4 Evaluation of the Remaining Test Data Packages Excluding the sixteen that were reviewed by the NRC-TRT, there have been 190 preoperational tests performed to date.
Each of the data packages associated with these tests has been reviewed and approved by the JTG at least once and, as a consequence of steps 4.1.2 and 4.1.3 above, thirty of them have undergone a second evaluation. While there is no evidence thus far to indicate that a programmatic deficiency exists with respect to the Unit 1 preoperational test program, this population of 190 tests will be further examined through the application of a sampling program. Details of the program are provided in Section 4.5.

Description of Issue Identified by NRC The NRC-TRT described the issue in the CPSES Safety Evaluation Report, Supplement No. 7 at Pages J-73 through J-75, Item 4.(6), " Assessment of Safety Significance," as follows:
Final acceptance by TUEC of HFT results does not occur until the Joint Test Group (JTG) has conducted its review of the data and approves the completed test data package. In a sample of 17 out of 25 completed HFT data packages, the TRT found four instances in which not all of the test objectives had been met, yet the JTG had completed their review and had approved the test data package.
These instances were:
(a) Preoperational test procedure 1CP-PT-02-12, " Bus Voltage and Load Survey," intended to demonstrate that during all modes of plant operation, optimum current and voltage will be present at all the buses and associated equipment. After the test was completed, the STE noted in review of test data that the voltages recorded in paragraphs 7.8.2.1 and 7.8.3.1 did not meet the acceptance criteria specified in the test procedure.
A test deficiency report (TDR) was initiated.
Subsequent TUEC engineering evaluation of the out-of-tolerance voltages documented in the TDR required that changes to some of the transformer output settings used during the conduct of the test were necessary to bring the voltages within the originally specified acceptance criteria.
In accordance with the test procedure, these changes necessitated that some portions of the test be performed again. However, the JTG approved the data package without requiring these portions of the test to be performed again. Therefore, the test data package contained invalid data for that test; thus, the test objective had not been met.
(b) Procedure 1CP-PT-34-05, " Steam Generator Narrow Range Level Verification," intended to demonstrate at hot, no-load conditions, that the specified narrow range level channels for each steam generator indicate properly at the upper and lower instrument taps and compare properly with each other for actual changes in steam generator water level. The transmitters for level detectors 1-LT-517, 518, and 529 were found defective prior to initiation of testing and, thus, temporary equipment was substituted. The test was performed with the temporary equipment and declared successful. After the test, the specified transmitters were installed. The Joint Test Group (JTG) approved the completed test package m,.,
.-.-.,_.,.,,m.
Rsvision:

(Cont'd) l containing data taken with temporary transmitters. The only retest requireo after installation of the detectors was cold calibration (not calibration at hot, no-load conditions);
thus, this test objective was not met and no other requirements were imposed by the JTG to monitor performance when the transmitters are placed in service.
(c) Procedure ICP-PT-55-05, " Pressurizer Level Control," intended to demonstrate the control aspects of the system in conjunction with the chemical and volume control system. In addition, there was a note on page 12 of the procedure that stated, 'This test is provided to verify the capability of the pressurizer level control system to monitor pressurizer level over the range of installed instrumentation and to observe that all alarm and control functions are operational.' A prerequisite condition (paragraph 6.13) required the plant to be in hot standby condition. During conduct of pressurizer level indication testing in accordance with the procedure (paragraph 7.1), the System Test Engineer (STE) noted that a level detector (1-LT-461) was registering marginal readings.
He documented this and recommended a calibration check of the detector. After the test was completed, this was done, and it was determined that the detector was out of calibration, and attempts to calibrate it were unsuccessful. The corrective action was to replace the detector and perform a cold calibration (not calibration in hot standby condition); thus, this test objective was not met.
The JTG-approved test data package contained level cata taken with a detector that subsequently proved to be out of calibration, thereby invalidating the test data and no other requirements were imposed by the JTG to monitor the performance of the new detector when it was placed in service.
(d) Additionally, during the conduct of Proced' ire 1CP-PT-55-05 discussed in (c) above, the speed of the recording chart for the pressurizer level was changed from 2.5 cm/ minute, as required by paragraph 7.2.6c, to 15 cm/ hour. The TRT l
l determined that this was done to avoid running out of chart paper during the test. This deviation from the approved test procedure should have been documented on a TDR even though, in this case, the chart speed was inconsequential since the recorded trace data were not being relied upon to prove any of the system's performance features.

The TRT discussed these findings with startup management, including l
the Startup Manager, who is a JTG member. The Startup Manager informed the TRT that with respect to ICP-PT-34-05 and ICP-PT-55-05, the JTG had made a conscious decision not to require hot calibrations on the instruments in question since the accuracy of their calibrations could be determined during a subsequent plant heatup. While the TRT understood this, it pointed out that the JTG had not specified in the retest requirements that these hot calibration determinations must be made; it only specified a cold calibration. Therefore, there was no mechanism to draw attention to the fact that these instruments had not been operationally tested previously under hot plant conditions. The TRT, therefore, did not consider the test objectives to have been fully met.
With respect to ICP PT-02-12, when the TRT identified the need to perform some portions of the test again as a result of the actions taken to implement TUEC's engineering evaluation of the out-of-tolerance voltages, a TDR was immediately initiated by the startup group. The need for performing portions of the test again was apparently overlooked by the JTG during its review. The TRT, therefore, considered that the test objectives had not been fully satisfied and that the JTG review of this data package had been less than adequate.

Criteria for Evaluation of Completed Test Data Packages The following guidelines shall be used for reevaluation of completed I
preoperational test data packages as required by Action Plans III.a.1 and III.b to ensure:
1.0 That the test satisfied applicable FSAR commitments; 2.0 That the test objectives were not invalidated as a result of Test Procedure Deviations (TPDs) that were issued during conduct of the test; and 3.0 That the test objectives were not invalidated as a result of inappropriate corrective actions or ratests associated with Test Deficiency Reports (TDRs) issued during the test or as a result of test data package review.
NOTES:
(1) Particular attention must be given to TPDs that were issued to modify test prerequisite (initial) conditions, or test methodology such that the stated test objectives could not have been attained under the "as tested" conditions or system configuration.
l (2) Particular attention must be given to TPDs that were issued to l
delete the requirement to have permanent plant equipment l
installed for test conduct or that substituted temporary equipment for permanent plant equipment before or during the test.
(3) Particular attention must be given to the specified retest requirements for TDRs which documented permanent system component (s) that were not installed for conduct of the test or unacceptable test results with respect to the stated test acceptance criteria.
(4) Regulatory Position C.3 of Regulatory Guide 1.68, Revision 2, states in part; "To the extent practical, the duration of the test should be sufficient to permit equipment to reach its normal equilibrium condition, e.g., temperatures and pressures, and thus decrease the probability of failures,

Pegs 1 of 6 ISAP VII.a.9 Receipt and Storage of Purchased Material and Equipment
1.0 DESCRIPTION
OF ISSUE IDENTIFIED BY NRC This action plan was initiated to address a concern identified by the NRC:
that the CPRT was not providing verification of material and equipment compliance with procurement / design requirements.
This concern is documented on page 91, line 15 in the minutes of a public meeting held between the NRC and TUGCO on December 19, 1985 at Arlington, Texas.
2.0 ACTION IDENTIFIED BY NRC Action was not specified by the NRC in correspondence.
3.0 BACKGROUND
The Design Adequacy Program and a portion of ISAP VII.a.4, " Audit Program and' Auditor Qualification," cover key aspects of safety-related design and manufacturing activities including the specification of design requirements in the procurement documents.
The Quality of Construction and QA/QC Adequacy Program essentially cover construction activities beginning with the removal of materials / equipment from the warehouse or storage area. This ISAP will provide coverage on the receipt and storage activities which occur after manufacturing and before issue of materials / equipment from storage for installation. The results of the implementation f
of this action plan will provide useful input to the Quality of Construction and QA/QC Adequacy Program collective evaluation process and will ensure that receipt and storage program problems that may have occurred are appropriately considered in the final evaluation.
Safety-related procurements range from simple consumable materials
(
such as re-inforcing steel and weld rod to complex engineered equipment such heat exchangers and motor control centers.
Consequently, receipt inspection activities and storage / maintenance requirements vary significantly. The specific types of safety-related material / equipment to be reviewed will be selected to provide a reasonable cross-section of design complexity and a reasonable chronological spread of receipt activities at CPSES.

3.0 BACKGROUND
This action plan involves the fabrication shop identified as a part of the NRC item on material traceability, and addressed by Issue-Specific Action Plan VII.a.1, " Material Traceability".
CPSES Safety Evaluation Report Supplement No. 11 (SSER 11), May 1985, Appendix 0, Allegation AQ-138 (pages 0-145 to 0-153) discussed fabrication shop activities under QA/QC Category SB, Onsite Fabrication. Specifically, Allegation AQ-138 consists of 12 elements:
1.
Personnel asked to perform work without knowledge of paperwork.
2.
Paperwork illegal due to post dating.
3.
Non-safety material mixed with safety-related material.
4.
' Personnel directed not to mark indeterminate material as scrap.
5.
Electrical and iron fab shop material consolidated and mixed.
6.
Electrical personnel used undocumented material.
7.
ASME QC personnel in iron fab shop did not check Brown
& Root threads.
8.
Undocumented weld repairs made on base metal.
9.
Threaded rod cut without QC verification of heat numbers.
- 10. Arc cut done too close to cut line.
- 11. Beam clips may have been cracked during bending.
- 12. Chain and triple hook fabricated without regard to procedures.
l The NRC conclusions to Allegation AQ-138 (page 0-152) are:
Substantiated:
Item 1.
Not substantiated:
Items 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 11.
Unable to substantiate:
Items 2, 6, 8, 10, 12.

3.0 BACKGROUND
(Cont'd)
However, SSER 11, Appendix P lists seven (7) Allegation AQ-138 concerns or deficiencies under QA/QC program area 4 Construction and Testing (page P-14).
(Note that the QA/QC program areas of Appendix P are not the QA/QC categories of Appendix 0.)
The seven (7) AQ-138 concerns or deficiencies, referenced to SSER 11, Appendix P, are:
- 1. Parts fabricated without hanger package, traveler, or drawings.
- 2. Scrap and salvage material not marked or restricted access.
- 3. Indeterminate material mingled with safety-related material.
- 4. Fabrication procedures did not identify design standards for threads.
- 5. Material requisitions did not comply with procedures.
- 6. Random QC surveillance of storage areas not performed.
- 7. Unused material not returned to warehouse.
Concerns 1 through 6 were included in the NRC-TRT January 8, 1985 letter as Items 8G, 8A, 8E, 8D, 8B and 8F respectively (see paragraph 1.0 above also). NRC-TRT January 8, 1985 Item 8C (Shop Foreman familiarity with procedures) was identified only in SSER 11, Appendix 0 (page 0-146), but was not included in Appendix P.
Adequacy of craft training is addressed in ISAP I.d.3.
Concern 7 (above) was first identified in Appendix P, and will be addressed in ISAP VII.a.1.
Background and historical information will be obtained and evaluated as a part of the implementation of this action plan.
A preliminary investigation indicates that only a small amount of safety-related work was performed in the onsite fabrication shop prior to January 1980. The program of procedural and management controls applied to onsite fabrication shop activities has evolved with time as a result of corrective actions to problems identified by both internal and external sources. The work activities performed at the onsite fabrication shop range from simple cutting of material through the fabrication of complex items which involve fit-up, welding, and machining operations. Based upon this preliminary investigation, a directed approach for selecting fabricated items for review will provide a more effective means to assess a representative cross-section of activities over the time period than will a random sample process.

2 Pass 4 of 8 ISAP VII,b.1 (Cont'd) 4.0 CPRT ACTION PLAN 4.1 Scope and Methodology 4.1.1 This Issue-Specific Action Plan assesses the adequacy of the procedural and management control of fabrication shop work activities at CPSES. The evaluation will consider the evolution of procedural and management controls with time and provide an assessment of the current program.
This action plan consists of two separate areas of evaluation:
4.1.1.1 Concerns which may be evaluated by review of safety related fabrication document packages:
Material requisitions not properly completed.
Fabricated thread conformance.
Fabrication to memos and sketches.
4.1.1.2 Concerns which may be evaluated by review of procedures, survey, surveillance, and audit records to identify trends and corrective action effectiveness:
Scrap and salvage area control Safety, non-safety and bulk material segregation Site surveillance of material storage 4.1.2 The specific methodology is described below.
4.1.2.1 Identify, obtain, and review applicable material storage, fabrication, and inspection procedures in effect for both ASME and non-ASME safety related work in onsite fabrication shops.
Evaluate procedural adequacy with respect to controls for material traceability, fabrication processes and item acceptability.

2 Pega 5 of 8 ISAP VII.b.1 (Cont'd) 4.0 -CPRT ACTION PLAN (Cont'd) 4.1.2.2 Categories of both ASME and non-ASME safety-related fabricated items will be selected for review in such a manner ao to provide a reasonable cross-section of onsite fabrication shop activities during January 1980 through December 1985.
Fabrication shop activities include the following groups of work activities:
a)
Cutting of material and material identification transfer.
b)
Fitup and welding.
c)
Machining; threading, etc.
Fabricated items nelected for review will represent at least two (2) of the above groups of work activities. A minimum of three (3) items per calendar quarter will be selected over the January 1980 through December 1985 time period for a minimum total of 72 items.
Review the" completed fabrication packages for the selected pieces for adequacy of material identification, applicable drawings and procedures used, and fabrication and inspection sign offs.
If no discrepancies are identified, document the results and close the action item.
4.1.2.3 If documentation discrepancies are identified, a visual reinspection of the selected items in situ for welds, dimensions, fasteners, material identification, component identification, etc., will be performed (to confirm or resolve the discrepancies) depending'upon the nature of the discrepancy.
t iBased upon the review in Section 4.1.2.1, and hardware reinspection checklists developed under ISAP VII.c, appropriate inspection attributes and accept / reject criteria will be developed for this reinspection.
