Response to Notices of Violation 87-27-02 and 87-27 03
NOTICE OF VIOLATION 87-27-02
1. STATEMENT OF VIOLATION
" Criterion VI of Appendix B to 10CFR50 requires that measures be
established to control the issuance of documents such as drawings,
including changes thereto, and that these measures shall assure that
documents, including changes, are reviewed for adequacy and approved for
release by authorized personnel and are distributed to and used at the
location where the prescribed activity is performed,
" Contrary to the above, a design change notice (Brovn & Root DCN No.
1-S-1600-1) issued in 1980, but never implemented, was erroneously
incorporated into Bechtel design drawing No. 3C01-9-S-1600 and Bechtel
calculation No. 20011SC045, "RHR Pump Support Pedestal." As a result of
this erroneous incorporation, both the Bechtel drawing and calculation
indier.ted a 1/2-inch weld on the column to base plate connection while
the actual as-built condition was a 5/16-inch weld."
II. REASON FOR VIOLATION
When Brown & Root issued the design change for the RHR pump supports,
they made a drafting error in that they failed to indicate that an
increase (from 5/16 to 1/2-inch) in the weld size of vendor welds on the
RHR pump support columns would require field rework. Apparently, B&R
failed to recognize that the vendor had previously fabricated the weld
and delivered the support to site. Because the drawing did not call out
the field work to the vendor weld, B&R Construction did not modify the
weld.
During turn over of documents from B&R to Bechtel, Bechtel revised the
design drawing, in number only, to be 3C019S1600, Revision 0. Bechtel
did not detect the discrepant condition because the normal evaluation of
B&R design drawings and calculations emphasized consistency between
design documents and verification of their technical adequacy. The
interrelationship between receipt of materials and subsequent design
changes to the materials during the B&R era was not identified as an area
of concern prior to the transition from B&R to Bechtel. Therefore,
additional scrutiny in that area was not procedurally imposed during the
transition phase.
Bechtel's technical review and subsequent revision of B&R's calculation
determined that the increase in weld size was unnecessary. Cross-bracing

was added to resolve other desi6n concerns about the supports. As such,
the 1/2-inch weld was not reverifiad prior to issuance of the Bechtel
revision to the calculation.
Due to the circumstances surrounding this discrepancy and the chronology
involved, STP has determined that this discrepancy represents an isolated
case of design error.
III. CORRECTIVE ACTIONS TAKEN AND RESULTS ACHIEVED:
STP performed a reinspection of the affected RHR pump supports to ensure
tha't the weld size was indeed 5/16-inch (as identified in the NRC
inspection). The reinspection showed that, within specification
tolerances, the weld was a S/16-inch weld. The design calculation
(Bechtel calculation no. SC045-4B, Revision 7) was revised to
specifically document the conclusion that the increased weld size was
unnecessary. The dis > :nt drawing (3C019S1600, Revision 8) was reviscd
to show the appropriat. .se weld.
IV. CORRECTIVE STEPS TAKEN TO PREVENT RECURRENCE
Since this is an isolated case of a Brown & Root drafting error, no
actions to prevent recurrence are necessary.
V. DATE OF FULL COMPLI ANCE
STP is in full compliance at this time.

NOTICE OF VIOLATION 87-27-03
I. STATEMENT OF VIOLATION
" Criterion V of Appendix B to 10CFR50 requires that activities affecting
quality be prescribed by documented instructions or procedures, and shall
i
be accomplished in accordance with these procedures. Bechtel
Construction Specific.ation No. 3A010SS0030, Revision 8, " Specification
for Erection of Structural Steel and Miscellaneous Steel," Section
7.1.1.4, requires that high-strength bolts be installed in accordance
with the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) " Specification
for Structural Joints Using ASTM A325 or A490-Bolts." Section 5 of the
AISC specification requires that fasteners be tightened to provide, when
all fasteners in the joint are tight, at least the minimum tension of
39,000 pounds'for 7/8-inch diameter A325 bolts.
" Contrary to the above, the NRC inspector independently measured the
tension for 12 randomly selected 7/8 inch diameter A325 bolts on each of
the three. Residual Heat Removal (RHR) pump support structures and.found
that the tension was less than the required value of 39,000 pounds for
one bolt on RHR pump A and for six bolts on RHR pump C. All three RER
pump support structures had been inspected by Quality Control."
II. REASON FOR VIOLATION
STP has determined that an inappropriate standard site procedure (SSP)
'
was used to install the RHR pump supports cross-braces. SSP-52,
" Installation Assembly and Disassembly of Permanent Mechanical Plant
Equipment," was used to install the bolted connections as opposed to
SSP-11 " Fabrication, Erection, and Bolt-up of Structural Steel." SSP 11
provides appropriate inspection and installation instructions to ensure
that structural bolted connections are installed correctly. SSP-52 was
used because the supports in question were assumed to be mechanical
equipment as they were associated with the RHR pumps; thus, SSP-52 would
apply. At the time of the installation, SSP-52 did not include
sufficient detail to install the braces correctly.
III. CORRECTIVE ACTIONS TAKEN AND RESULTS ACHIEVED:
Subsequent to the NRC inspection, STP reinspected the bolted connections
on the RRR pump cross brace supports. Of the 124 bolted connections
inspected 33 had torque values lower than the specified range. The
deficient bolts were documented on a Nonconformance Report (NCR) and
corrected per the NCR disposition. The deficient bolts were retightened,
as necessary, utilizing the requirements of SSP-ll.
I STP has examined the potential for use of the incorrect procedure on l
other mechanical equipment supports. Three areas were identified where
SSP 52 could have been used in error to install structural supports for
mechanical equipment:

a. RHR pump supports,
b. RHR Heat exchanger lateral supports, and
c. pressurizer lateral supports.
Of these supports, only the RHR pump supports previously identified were
of concern, The RRR heat exchanger lateral supports have no bolted
steel-to-steel structural connections, and the pressurizer lateral
~
supports utilize bolting materials for which Westinghouse has specified
turn-of-the-nut method tightening requirements.
IV. CORRECTIVE ACTIONS TAKEN TO PREVENT RECURRENCE
Prior to the NRC inspection, but after installation of the 7MR pump
supports, STP recognized the limited provisions in SSP-52 for
installation of structural bolted connections. Accordingly, SSP-52 was
revised to require the use of SSP-ll for general structural support
erection associated with mechanical equipment installation. Proj ect
personnel have received training on this revision through the normal
training program concerning revisions to SSPs.
IV. DATE OF FULL COMPLIANCE
STP is in full compliance with regard to this violation at this time.
