SUMMARY
Dresser, LLC 99902058/2022-201 The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff conducted a vendor inspection at the Dresser, LLCs (hereafter referred to as Dresser) facility in Jacksonville, FL, to verify that it had implemented an adequate quality assurance (QA) program that complies with the requirements of Appendix B, Quality Assurance Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants and Fuel Reprocessing Plants, to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 50, Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities. In addition, the NRC inspection team also verified that Dresser implemented a program in accordance with 10 CFR Part 21, Reporting of Defects and Noncompliance. Furthermore, the NRC inspection team verified that Dresser had implemented a program in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section III, Rules for Construction of Nuclear Facility Components,Section V, Nondestructive Examination, and Section IX, Welding and Brazing Qualification, of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Boiler and Pressure Vessel (B&PV) Code, and the American Society for Nondestructive Testing (ASNT) SNT-TC-1A, Personnel Qualification and Certification in Nondestructive Testing. This was the second NRC inspection of Dressers Jacksonville facility.
This technically-focused inspection evaluated aspects of Dressers QA program implementation activities associated with the design, fabrication, and testing of valves and valve replacement parts for U.S. nuclear power plants. Specific activities observed by the NRC inspection team included:
hydrostatic testing of valve component base 19096M/MS-2
functional testing of a 3/4 pressure relief valve (Part No. 09171001)
commercial grade dedication of Exhaust Valve 77 Airset for PO 31460257 These regulations served as the bases for the NRC inspection:
Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50
10 CFR Part 21 During the course of this inspection, the NRC inspection team used the following Inspection Procedures (IPs): IP 43002, Routine Inspections of Nuclear Vendors, dated April 5, 2022; IP 43004, Inspection of Commercial-Grade Dedication Programs, dated April 5, 2022; and IP 36100, Inspection of 10 CFR Part 21 and Programs for Reporting Defects and Noncompliance, dated May 16, 2019.
The NRC inspection team concluded that Dressers QA policies and procedures comply with the applicable requirements of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 and 10 CFR Part 21, and that Dressers personnel are implementing these policies and procedures effectively. The results of this inspection are summarized below.
10 CFR Part 21 Program The NRC inspection team reviewed Dressers policies and implementing procedures that govern the implementation of its 10 CFR Part 21 program to verify compliance with the requirements of 10 CFR Part 21. The NRC inspection team: (1) reviewed the 10 CFR Part 21 postings; (2) reviewed a sample of purchase orders (POs) to verify that 10 CFR Part 21 was specified in these POs; (3) verified that Dressers nonconformance and corrective action programs provide a link to the 10 CFR Part 21 program; and (4) reviewed a sample of 10 CFR Part 21 evaluations performed by Dresser. No findings of significance were identified.
Design Control The NRC inspection team reviewed Dressers policies and implementing procedures that govern the implementation of its design control program to verify compliance with the requirements of Criterion III, Design Control, of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50. The NRC inspection team selected samples of design and testing documentation from four different products provided to U.S. nuclear power plants. The NRC inspection team also reviewed the relevant POs, customer specifications and qualification requirements, drawings, certificate of conformance records, certified material test reports, ASME Form NV-1 data reports, seismic analysis reports, production order operation lists, functional test reports, hydrostatic test reports, liquid penetrant test reports, dimensional inspection reports, and minimum wall inspection reports for these products for compliance with the regulatory requirements. The NRC inspection team observed that several final design documents related to the verification of successful completion of design activities were not signed by an independent evaluator. Section 11 of the Dresser QA) Manual specifies that the tester must sign the applicable reports. However, the QA Manual does not specify that the independent evaluator must sign design documents. In response, Dresser included this issue and proposed resolution to clearly define the roles and responsibilities of the evaluator in Corrective Action Report (CAR) 1039. The NRC inspection team reviewed CAR 1039 and verified that this issue has been adequately described. The NRC inspection team identified this issue as minor because all required signatures were present on the final paperwork. No findings of significance were identified.
Commercial-Grade Dedication The NRC inspection team reviewed Dressers policies and implementing procedures that govern the implementation of its commercial-grade dedication (CGD) program to verify compliance with the requirements of Criterion III and Criterion VII, Control of Purchased Material, Equipment, and Services, of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50. The NRC inspection team observed Dressers staff performing dedication activities for an Exhaust valve 77 Airset in accordance with Dressers CGD process. The NRC inspection team reviewed the documentation associated with the dedication of this for the Exhaust Valve 77 Airset. In addition, the NRC inspection team reviewed a sample of completed CGD packages including the technical evaluations used to identify the critical characteristics and acceptance criteria to verify that Dresser effectively implemented its CGD processes. No findings of significance were identified.
Material Traceability The NRC inspection team reviewed Dressers policies and implementing procedures that govern the implementation of its material, parts, and components control program to verify compliance with the requirements of Criterion VIII, Identification and Control of Materials, Parts, and Components, of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50. The NRC inspection team observed receipt, fabrication, and storage activities associated with ongoing production orders, and reviewed a sample of completed shop work orders to confirm Dresser personnel were performing material control activities in accordance with the policies and procedures established for those activities. No findings of significance were identified.
Test Control The NRC inspection team reviewed Dressers policies and implementing procedures that govern the implementation of its test control program to verify compliance with the requirements of Criterion XI, Test Control, of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50. The NRC inspection team observed a hydrostatic testing of Dresser parts and functional testing of a relief valve. The NRC inspection team also reviewed Dressers test setup, equipment calibration, personnel qualification, quality control (QC) and Authorized Nuclear Inspector (ANI) participation, test performance data, and records to verify compliance with the applicable regulatory requirements.
The NRC inspection team observed the functional testing of a 3/4 pressure relief valve (Part No.
09171001). The NRC inspection team noted that the Dresser test personnel performed one additional test to obtain three test results that show no consistent upward or downward trend of the set pressure. This requirement is specified in ASME Performance Test Code (PTC) 25, Pressure Relief Devices, which is referenced in the Dresser Functional Testing Procedure, PT024, Revision 8. However, this non-trending requirement is not one of the steps in the Dresser Functional Testing Procedure. Dresser initiated corrective action report CAR 1039 to address this issue and update the procedures to include information on filling out the test report information for the ANI witness and other information that may be specific to nuclear valves. The NRC inspection team determined this issue as minor because the purchase order did not impose these requirements for those components. No findings of significance were identified.
Control of Measuring and Test Equipment The NRC inspection team reviewed Dresser policies and implementing procedures that govern the implementation of its measuring and test equipment (M&TE) program to verify compliance with the requirements of Criterion XII, Control of Measuring and Test Equipment, of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50. The NRC inspection team observed that M&TE was calibrated, labeled, tagged, handled, stored, or otherwise controlled to indicate the calibration status and its traceability to nationally recognized standards. No findings of significance were identified.
Nonconforming Material, Parts, or Components and Corrective Action The NRC inspection team reviewed Dressers policies and procedures that govern the implementation of its nonconformance control and corrective action programs to verify compliance with the regulatory requirements in Criterion XV, Nonconforming Materials, Parts or Components, and Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50. The NRC inspection team verified that the procedures contained sufficient guidance for evaluating nonconforming conditions and the procedures ensure that conditions are evaluated for possible corrective action and for 10 CFR Part 21 applicability. The NRC inspection team reviewed a sample of nonconformance reports (NCRs) and corrective action reports (CARs) and confirmed that Dresser adhered to applicable processes and procedures. No findings of significance were identified.

Observations and Findings The NRC inspection team observed the hydrostatic testing of valve component base 19096M/MS-2. The inspection team noted that the Dresser QA Manual requires hold points for the ANI to witness the hydrostatic testing. However, the Dresser Hydrostatic Testing Procedure HY017, Revision 18, does not include this step. The Dresser representative stated that the ANI witness requirement for a particular test is controlled by the Product Order Operation List. A Dresser representative provided samples of the Product Order Operation List that clarified this test control activity.
The NRC inspection team observed the functional testing of a 3/4 pressure relief valve (Part No. 09171001). The NRC inspection team noted that the Dresser test personnel performed one additional test to obtain three test results that show no consistent upward or downward trend of the set pressure. This requirement is specified in ASME Performance Test Code (PTC) 25, Pressure Relief Devices, which is referenced in the Dresser Functional Testing Procedure, PT024, Revision 8. However, this non-trending requirement is not one of the steps in the Dresser Functional Testing Procedure. The Dresser representative stated that many commercial procedures have been updated to add this non-trending requirement; however, some Dresser procedures, such as the PT024 procedure, have not been updated and the non-trending provision is not a requirement. Dresser initiated corrective action report CAR 1039 to address this issue and update the procedures to include information on filling out the test report information for the ANI witness and other information that may be specific to nuclear valves. The NRC inspection team determined this issue as minor because the POs did not impose these requirements for those components. No findings of significance were identified.
c.
Conclusion The NRC inspection team identified one issue that was not more than minor in association with Dresser is implementing test control program in accordance with the regulatory requirements of Criterion XI of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50. This minor issue identified Dressers clarification to adequately update the procedures to include information on filling out the test report information for the ANI witness and other information that may be specific to nuclear valves. Dresser initiated CAR 1039 to document these issues. No findings of significance were identified.
6.
