Rxtland General BechicCcaignor Document Control Desh September 8, 1989 Page 2 Portland General Electric Company (PGE) concurs that the primary reason for the individual problents that were fo;.nd during your inspection was a lack of adequate oversight of inservice inspection (ISI) contractor activities.
We are now fully contre). ling the ISI Progrmn without the use of an outside administrator. We have filled several positions that were created in an essential expansion of our 1SI Croup, and many prcgram upgrades and procedural improvements are scheduled to be in place by the next refueling outage. . "GE is committed to significantly improving our ISI performance and believes that we are taking the necessary steps to do so.

- Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part SO (10 CFR 50),
Appendix.B. Criterion IK, requires that special processes ruch as quali-
.fication, certification, and training of nondestructive examination (NDE) personnel procedures shall comply with the requirements-of applicable codes and standards. The , Trojan Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR),
Section 6, invokes American. Society.of Mechanical Engineers.(ASME) Code 1983 Edition and . Addenda through Summer 1983. Site Procedure MTS-9 AM-300', Revision 1 0, and ASME Section V, Paragraph T-170,~" Qualification-of Personnel", establish SNT-TC-1A (1980 Edition), " Recommended Practice for Nondestructive Testing Personnel Qualification and' Certification", as the requirement for NDE personnel qualification.
SET-TC-1A (1980), Paragraph 8.3 requires. "The written examinations should be administered without access to reference material (Closed Book) except that necessary data, such as graphs, tables, specifications, procedures, and codes may be provided."
Contrary t'o the above, the inservice inspection (ISI) contractor training, qualification, and certification of NDE personnel procedure
'(NTS-QAM-300, Revision O. Paragraph 8.1.3) states " Specific examinations shall cover equipment operating procedures, test techniques, and codes that.the examiners may encounter in specific assignments. The examina-
.tions may be administered as an Open Book Test". The examinations given to ISI NDE contractors did not cover the required specific test areas, nor were the examinations closed book tests. Reference material was provided to examinees that contained all test answers.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement II).
REPLY TO VIOLATION A portland General Electric Company (PGE) contests this violation.
One of our engineers was a member of the authoring task force of SNT-TC-1A in-1961 through 1966, a participant in the revisions, and past chairman of the Personnel Qualification Division and the SNT-TC-1A Interpretation Panel. He is thus knowledgeable in the language and intent'of SNT-TC-1A. -He reviewed the subject of this violation and ccncluded we are in compliance with the requirements stated in this violation.
Our understanding of the intent of SNT-TC-1A (1980), Paragraph 8.3, is that the reference material shall be genmane to the questions asked and not be general text on the subject of nondestructive testing, welding technology, physics, metallurgy, etc. Our engineer reviewed the specific examinations taken by the contractor's Level II employees and the

He found that the Visual Test (VT)-1, VT-3, VT-4; the ultrasonic; the penetrant, and the magnetic particle examina-tions specifically cover the codes and procedures in effect at the Trojan Nuclear Plant, and that only the portions of the codes and only the procedures required by the examination questions were reproduced and issued during each examination as allowed by the exception of SNT-TC-la (1980), Paragraph 8.3. Attachment lA is a copy of a letter from the contractor which contains copies of the examinations and the reference material. The particular reference material provided for each examina-tion is identified in the cover letter.
We have contacted the SNT-TC-1A Interpretation Panel and learned they have experienced difficulty with requests for interpretations in the past on the meaning of " closed book" and that a proposed clarification of SNT-TC-1A, Paragraph 8.3. is presently being circulated by the Inter-pretation Panel for review and balloting. It states ". . . that a restrictive (verbatim) interpretation would be inappropriate because SNT-TC-1A is a recommended practice which provides a guideline by which the employer is responsible for establishing his written practice (as amended by ASME Section XI of course). To require / imply that a candi-date for any level of certification memorize data contained in graphs and tables, or in specifications, procedures, or codes for the purpose of taking an examination, is not the intent (now or since SNT-TC-1A's conception) of CLOSED BOOK". The proposed clarification, if passed, would confirm our present testing practice.

' License NPF-1:
Page 3 of 11 VIOLATION B 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion II requires that special processes such' as nondestructive testing be accomplished in accordance with applicable codes. Trojan's FSAR and ultrasonic procedure QAP-UT-101, Revision 1 invoke the'1983 Edition and Addenda through Summer of 1983 of ASME Section XI.for ISI requirements. .ASME Section XI, Article III-3210 and Site Procedure QAP-UT-101', Revision 1,-Paragraph 6.5.1 establish that calibration shall include the complete ultrasonic examination system and any change in search units in the system shall be cause for calibration checks of the entire examination system.
Contrary to the above, ultrasonic search unit changen were made during the ISI examination of Welds 89-011630, 89-011580 and 89-011620, and the required calibration checks were not performed.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement II).
REPLY TO VIOLATION B PGE acknowledges the. violation.
- 1. Reason for the Violation:
The reason for this violation was personnel error. Contractor examination personnel failed to follow instructions of ultrasonic procedure QAP-UT-101, " Manual Ultrasonic Examination of full Pene-tration Butt Welds Excluding Vessel Welds of 2 1/2-inches Thick and Creater", Revision 1, which details the required esse ~ntial variables for system calibration, recalibration and calibration reference checks. In addition, the contractor Level III review failed.to identify the nonconformance.
- 2. Corrective Steps Taken and Results Achieved:
- a. The ISI contractor Quality Assurance site representative.initi-ated a corrective action request (CAR) to the ISI contractor site Level III and PCE. Following the issuance of CAR -003-TNP on June 1, 1989, an audit of all ultrasonic calibration data sheets for the 1989 outage was performed to identify any similar nonconformances. Upon completion of this audit and discussion with Level II examination personnel, a total of nine welds, j including the three welds identified by the Nuclear Regulatiry Commission (NRC) audit team were identified. Transducers (t, 45 and 60 degree) as well as instrument settings had been changed, and the required calibration checks were not recorded on the ,
L ultrasonic calibration data sheet as required by ASME Section KI.

- b. The nine welds that were identified to be nonconforming were reexamined with no recordable indications noted. The Section II program component identification numbers for these welds are.as follows: 89-011630, 89-011580, 89-011620, 89-011570, 89-316128, 89-316700, 89-302200, 89-302600 and 89-304240.
- c. All contractor Level II personnel were retrained in the use of QAP-UT-101, Revision 1, by the ISI contractor corporate Level III and instructed specifically in the areas of noncon-formance. No further occurrences of noncompliance were noted for the remaining examinations.
- 3. Corrective Steps That Will be Taken to Avoid Further Violations:
- a. Site-specific ultrasonic examination procedures will be developed.
- b. Administrative controls will be established to ensure contract examination personnel are trained to site-specific procedures for ultrasonic testing.
- c. Administrative controls will be established to ensure vendor proficiency in use of the site-specific ultrasonic examination procedures is demonstrated prior to their performing ultrasonic examinations in the field.
- d. Administrative controls will be established to ensure the over-sight of contract personnel is increased to ensure compliance with examination procedures.
- e. Administrative controls will be established to ensure a PGE Level III will review examination and calibration data sheets for compliance to governing codes, standards and procedures.
- 4. Date When Full Compliance Will Be Achieved:
Full compliance to ASKE Eection XI, 1983 Edition and Addenda through Summer of 1983, and QAP-UT-101, Revision 1, was achieved on June 16, 1989 when the reexamination of the nine welds was completed. The corrective steps of 3.a through 3.e will be completed by March 21, 1990.

- Trojan Nucl;cr Plcnt Docum:nt Control Desk Docket 50-344 September 8, 1989 License NPF-1 Attachment 1 Page 5 of 11 VIOLATION C 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion IX requires that special processes such as nondestructive testing be' accomplished in accordance with applicable codes. Trojan's FSAR and site radiographic procedures, QC-RT-1, " Radio-graphic Examination", and Maintenance Request (MR) 89-4129, "Feedwater Piping Replacement for 'D' System", invokes United States of America Standard (USAS) B31.7, Pressure Piping Code, 1969 Edition with Addenda through Summer 1971.
The USAS B31.7 Code, Paragraph B-1-140, directs that for pipe wall thick-nesses up to 3/4-inch inclusive sections of welds be rejected that are shown by radiography to have any elongated indication, with a length greater than 1/4-inch.
Contrary to the above, the licensee inspected and accepted USAS B31.7 Class 2 Weld P25881R4 on feedwater system "D", which contained an indi-cation 3/8-inch in length, which is greater than the 1/4-inch allowable length for thickness up to 3/4-inch inclusive. This indication should have been evaluated and dispositioned; however, at the time of the inspection, the licensee had not recorded, evaluated nor dispositioned the indication.
This is a Severity Level V violation (Supplement II).
REPLY TO VIOLATION C PGE acknowledges the violation, in that the indication noted was not recorded. However, the indication was evaluated on July 30, 1987 and interpreted as being an inside diameter surface condition, and dispositioned as acceptable.
- 1. Reason for the Violation:
The reason for this violation was inadequate procedures. Although the indication was evaluated during the radiograph interpretation process as an acceptable surface condition, it was not so recorded on the examination report form since Plant approved radiography procedures do not specify requirements for documenting indications other than those interpreted as welding discontinuities (e.g. ,
elongated inclusions, porosity, incomplete fusion and penetration).
- 2. Corrective Steps Taken and Results Achieved:
- a. 1987 refueling outage radiographs and reports from feedwater pipe replacement repair welds were reviewed by PGE Level III Examiners not involved with initial interpretation. The reviewers noted indications which were determined to be a weld joint mismatch condition, that had not been so recorded on the
- Trojan Nuc1ctr Plant Document Crntrol De:k Docket 50-344 September 8, 1989
^
License NPF-1 Attachment 1 Page 6 of 11 examination' report. The mismatch condition was confirmed by supplemental ultrasonic examination. No other indications that could be interpreted as welding discontinuities were identified other than those recorded during initial interpretation.
- b. A supplemental ultrasonic examination of weld P25881R4 was performed, which confirmed the original disposition. This information has been documented in the original weld inspection records.
- 3. Corrective Steps That Will Be Taken to Avoid Further Violations:
- a. Plant procedures controlling radiography will be revised to require that all detected indications be recorded and disposi-tioned on'the examination report,
- b. The radiograph coordinator will receive instruction on the requirements for documentation of indications and examination results.
- 4. Date of Full Compliance:
Full compliance has been achieved. The corrective actions of 3.a and 3.b will be completed by January 31, 1990.

VIOLATION D 10 CFR 50.55a requires that Plant ISI Programs be perforned in accordance with appropriate editions of the ASME code.
The Trojan FSAR, Section 6, states that the ISI Program shall meet the requirements of the 1983 Edition of Section II of the ASME code with Addenda through the Summer of 1983, and the Trojan second Ten-Year ISI Program establishes the same code requirements. ASME Section II, Article III, Paragraph 4330 and Appendix III establish requirements to stamp the weld center line, establish zero reference starting points and identify the direction of examination for weld inspections. Also, marking requirements are set forth in Site Procedure QC-RT-1, dated January 2, 1980.
Contrary to the above Welds P-28372 and P-25893 each had two zero reference starting points indicating opposite directions of inspection.
Welds P-25894, P-25897 and P-25876 had no zero reference starting points established. Weld P-25875 had no weld identification stamp.
This is a Severity Level V violation (Supplement II).
REPLY TO VIOLATION D PGE acknowledges the violation.
- 1. Reasons for the Violation:
- a. The reason for the marking of two zero reference points for Welds P-28372 and P-25893 was inadequate procedures. A clearly established system for zero reference location was not provided in QC-RT-1. At different stages of welding progression, two separate zero reference locations were established with location markers progressing in opposite directions.
- b. The reason for the lack of zero reference points for Welds P-25894, P-25897 and P-25876 was inadequate procedures, which resulted in the use of an improper tool for marking the reference points. Feedwater replacement piping weld radio-graphic location marker positions were marked with approved permanent ink markers which have become unidentifiable due to the system operating temperature and curface discoloration.
- c. The reason for the lack of a weld identification stamp for Weld P-25875 was inadequate procedures which resulted in the use of an improper tool for marking the weld identification. The Trojan weld record form documents that the weld number and welder identification number were verified to be properly
- Trojan Nuclocr Plant - Document C ntral Desk Docket 50-344 September 8, 1989 License NPF-1 Attachment 1 Page 8 of 11 applied on the completed weld as required by QCP-4, " Visual Weld and Braze Inspection". The weld markings were applied by vibec l
etch and mey be difficult to locate after system operation depending on discoloration and surface conditions present.
- 2. Corrective Steps That Have Been Taken and the Recults Achieved:
Revision 0 of Quality Inspection Procedure QIP-17. " Radiographic Examination", was approved on April 13, 1989 and was implemented into the Plant Operating Manual. Radiographic contract personnel are now required to perform radiography at Trojan in accordance with ;
QIP-17, which has a clearly established system for identifying a !
zero reference location as required by ASME Section XI, 1983 Edition through Summer 1983 Addenda.
- 3. Corrective Steps to be Taken to Avoid Further Violationr:
i
- s. The Trojan Weld Program Manual will be revised to require the application of weld identification, weld centerline marking and i zero reference location on all Class 1 and 2 welds and '
components using approved indentation-type methods (low-stress dye, blunt-nose round dot).
- b. Administrative controls will be established to ensure that weld markings will be verified and, if necessary, corrected during l routine inservice examinations. Previous inservice examination reports will be corrected if deficiencies are noted. A short term program to verify weld markings was considered; however, it j was determined that this could be more effectively accomplished during routine inservice examinations.
- 4. Date When Full Compliance Will Be Achieved:
The Trojan Weld Program Manual will be revised by September 22, 1989 l to include the necessary details for weld marking. The administra- l tive controls through which compliance will be achieved during routine inservice examinations will be in place by March 21, 1990.

License NPF-1 Attachrent 1 Page 9 of 11 VIOLATION E 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion IX, requires that special processes such as nondestructive testing be accomplished in accordance with applicable codes. Trojan's FSAR and ultrasonic testing procedure QAP-UT-101, Revision 1, invoke the 1983 Edition and Addenda through Summer of 1983 of ASME Section XI. ASME Section II, Paragraph IWA-1400(1) and (h) require that ultrasonic' examination data and evaluation results be documented.
Procedure QAP-UT-101, Revision 1 requires plotting of geometric condi-tions, such as weld root areas or defects. The volume of material examined and any restrictions or limitations of examiners also are required to be documented.
Contrary to the above, ISI ultrasonic data for Systems 330010, 010030, 011570, 035030 and 301120 revealed the following:
- 1. The volume of weld examined was not documented;
- 2. Examination limitations were not properly documented;
- 3. Ultrasonic examination records did not have sufficient plots to ensure that proper examination coverage was obtained;
- 4. Recorded indications were not characterized ac defects or geometric in nature; and
- 5. The ultrasonic reports did not indicate if the indications were acceptable or rejectable.
This is a Severity Level V violation (Supplement II),
REPLY TO VIOLATION E PGE acknowledges the violation.
- 1. Reasons for the Violation:
- a. The reason for the undocumented volume of weld examined and undocumented examination limitations was personnel error. The requirements for recording volume and scan limitations were not accomplished as required by QAP-UT-101, Revision 1. The method used to record scmt limitations did not provide suf ficient data to calculate the actual percentage of volume scanned.
- b. The reascn for the insufficient plots of ultrasonic examinations was inadequate procedures. Ultrasonic examination procedure QAP-UT-101, Revision 1 did not require coverage plots to ensure adequate examination coverage. The examination requirements of

[ September 8, 1989 Docket 50-344 License WPF-1 Attachment 1 Page 10 of 11 QAP-UT-101, Revision 1. Paragraph 7.2 defined the beam path and orientation requirements expecting the Level II to be competent in determining the required sean distances to examine the code required volume,
- c. The reason for the lack of characterization and disposition of recorded indications was personnel error. While performing ultrasonic examinations in accordance with QAP-UT-01, Revision 1, indications whose response was equal to or greater than 20 percent distance-amplitude correction (OAC) were inves-tigated as to their origin, and those whose respense was equal to or greater than 50 percent DAC were recorded as cequired by Paragraph 8.2. At this point, detailed profile and thickness cross-sectional plots would be required, as well as observation of the signal characteristics to identify.the shape, location and the identity of the reflector. Examination personnel did not always carry out this process as required by QAP-UT-101, Revision 1, Paragraph 8.3. Investigation of indications to provide documented evidence that would substantiate the reflector as geometric or non-geometric in nature were not always performed. Entries, such as " suspected geometry", were written in the remarks column adjacent to the recorded reflector data. Contractor Level III review of indications was not performed in a timely or adequate manner to evaluate and disposition each ultrasonic reflector recorded.
- 2. Corrective Steps Taken and Results Achieved:
- a. When the NRC inspection team identified recordable indications which had not been evaluated or dispositioned as required by QAP-UT-101, Revision 1, the ISI cor. tractor initiated CAR-002-TNP.
- b. All ultrasonic examination data sheets were audited by the .
I contractor Level III and the corporate Level III to identify all examinations with recordable indications that had not been evaluated and dispositioned as required by QAP-UT-101, Revision 1. Contours and thickness measurements were obtained, cross-sectional plots were constructed, and reflectors were reevaluated. In each case, reflectors recorded were determined to be geometric with the exception of the reactor vessel outlet nozzle-to-vessel indication, which is code acceptable, and pressurizer upper head-to-shell indication, which is code acceptable per a fracture mechanics analysis.
I
- c. Training was held on procedural requirements with all Level II personnel, and no further discrepancies were identified.
