Inspector Notes On January 27 to January 30, 2020, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) performed an inspection at Global Nuclear Fuel - Americas, LLC (GNF-A) located in Wilmington, North Carolina (NC). The last Quality Assurance Program (QAP) implementation inspection occurred in February of 2014 (ML14078A627). During that inspection, the team issued one Notice of Violation (NOV) regarding procedural non-compliance with two examples. Both examples were in the area of nonconforming material controls.

The purpose of this inspection was to verify and assess GNF-As compliance with the provisions of their approved NRC QAP and applicable Certificate of Compliances (CoC)s for the transportation of radioactive material packages, and the requirements of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Parts 21 and 71. Specifically, a team of NRC inspectors evaluated the adequacy of GNF-As activities related to management, design, procurement and maintenance controls of their radioactive material transportation package models known as the New Powder Container (NPC) and RAJ II. The team also reviewed and assessed the corrective actions from the previous NOV and applicable 10 CFR 71.95 60-day reports associated with the GNF-As transportation package models.

The team conducted the inspection in accordance with NRC Inspection Procedure 86001, Design, Fabrication, Testing, and Maintenance of Transportation Packagings and NUREG/CR-6314, Quality Assurance Inspections for Shipping and Storage Containers. The team reviewed selected procedures, quality assurance records, and interviewed personnel. The team performed an exit meeting on [[Exit meeting date::January 30, 2020]], which discussed the preliminary results at the completion of the inspection week.

The team identified one violation of NRC requirements because GNF-A did not establish measures for the identification and control of materials, parts, and components for their radioactive material transportation package models to prevent the use of incorrect or defective items. The team dispositioned the violation as a Severity Level IV non-cited violation (NCV),
which was consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. GNF-A acknowledged the information presented and documented the NCV in their corrective action program for resolution as condition report number 33611. The team described the violation in Section 02.06 of the inspector notes for this report.

However, in general, the team assessed that GNF-A effectively implemented their NRC-approved QAP for activities subject to 10 CFR Parts 21 and 71 in the areas of management, design, procurement and maintenance control INSPECTOR NOTES: AS DESCRIBED BELOW, THE TEAM PERFORMED AND DOCUMENTED APPLICABLE PORTIONS OF SECTIONS 02.02 THROUGH 02.10, WHICH ARE THE INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS OF INSPECTION PROCEDURE (IP) 86001.

02.02 Verify that the CoC holder's activities related to transportation packaging are being conducted in accordance with the CoC, as well as the NRC-approved QAP, and that implementing procedures are in place and effective.

Quality Assurance Policy The NRC inspection team reviewed Global Nuclear Fuels (GNF) quality assurance program and implementing procedures to verify how GNF conducted activities in accordance with their transportation package Certificate of Compliances (CoC)s and their NRC-approved Quality Assurance Program (QAP). The team reviewed GNFs QAP document NEDO-11209-A, GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy Quality Assurance Program Description (QAPD), Revision 14 and various implementing procedures. Additionally, the team reviewed GNFs graded approach for identifying Important-to-Safety (ITS) components for their radioactive material transportation package model RAJ II (No. 0034-3649, dated November 2014) and ITS descriptions related to the New Powder Container (NPC), QN-01810, Revision 6, Master Spare Parts List - Nuclear Containers,. The team also reviewed a sample of personnel qualifications and indoctrination training records in accordance with implementing procedure CP-20-100, Conduct of Training, Revision 5.

The team assessed that GNF had a program and implementing procedures in place and were effective in conducting activities in accordance with the CoCs as well as the NRC approved QAP for the NPC (CoC No. 71-9294) and RAJ-II (CoC No. 71-9309) radioactive material transportation package models. The team verified that the quality assurance program authorities and responsibilities were clearly defined and documented, and the quality assurance organization functioned as an independent group. The team also assessed that GNFs RAJ-II component safety classification and quality classification list for the NPC appropriately identified and classified those components used to maintain and refurbish packaging components in accordance with implementing procedures.

Documentation Controls The team reviewed the following procedures and work instructions associated with document control and quality records to determine if GNF was following its procedures in controlling its documentation and records:
 * CP-06-100, Document Control Process, Rev. 23, issue date 12/30/2019
 * CP-06-102, Supporting Document Control Process, Rev. 10, issue date 10/16/2018

 * WI-06-100-05, Issuing Authority Responsibilities, Rev. 10.1, issue date 3/27/2019 The team assessed that adequate document control and records management exists at GNF.

The team noted that GNF together with General Electric Hitachi (GEH) have three document control groups. Each group provides an essential function of document and quality record control. The team assessed that the groups were in full compliance with procedure CP-06-100.

All documents and records added to the electronic database system by the three groups are user controlled in that the user of a document is required to verify that they have the latest version before using that document. Since all documents and quality records are electronic, they are automatically remotely backed up by the GEH/GNF Information Technology staff periodically. Overall, there were no concerns identified by the team in the GNF documentation control or quality records areas.

02.03 Verify that provisions are in place for reporting defects, which could cause a substantial safety hazard, as required by 10 CFR Part 21 The team reviewed the Part 21 work instruction WI-16-108-07, Reporting of Defects and Noncompliance Under 10 CFR Part 21, Revision 7.2, to evaluate if provisions were in place for evaluating deviations that could cause a substantial safety hazard and if the required notification would be completed in a timely manner. The inspectors requested a list of Part 21 evaluations and notifications associated with any of the transportation packages and interviewed personnel to verify if they were familiar with the implementing work instruction WI-16-108-07. The team also reviewed GNF posting of Part 21 requirements in accordance with the 10 CFR 21.6, Posting requirements.

The team assessed that GNF has provisions in place for evaluating deviations and reporting defects, as required by 10 CFR Part 21. The team noted that GNF did not have any Part 21 reports within the last five years.

02.04 Interview selected personnel and review selected design documentation to determine that adequate design controls are implemented.

Design and Modification Controls The team interviewed selected personnel and reviewed selected design documentation to verify and evaluate that GNF implemented adequate design controls associated with their radioactive material transportation package models RAJ II and NPC. The team reviewed the GNFs procedures specifically related to design development, and control of modification activities.

The team also reviewed the qualifications of selected engineering personnel. The team focused its review on the latest GNFs design activity related to Revision 8 of CoC No. 9294 for the Part 71 NPC transportation packaging model. The team reviewed the following GNF procedures and GEH QAPD sections associated with design control and qualification to verify that GNF implemented the procedures and work instructions properly. The procedures and work instructions (WI) are as follows:
 * CP-03-100, Design Process, Rev. 5.2, issue date 8//1//2019
 * CP-03-113, Engineering Change Control, Rev. 2.0, issue date 8/20/2019
 * CP-23-400, Engineering Computer Projects, Rev. 2.3, issue date 10/4/2019

 * CP-23-401, Procured Engineering Computer Projects, Rev. 2.1, issue date10/4/2019
 * CP-23-402, Acquired Engineering Computer Projects, Rev. 2.1, issue date 10/4/2019
 * WI-03-100-30, Design Verification, Rev. 3.3, issue date 12/13/2018
 * WI-03-100-32, Engineering Tests, Rev. 1.0, issue date 4/9/2018
 * QP-3.0.07, Identification of Quality Categories, Revision 1
 * QP-2.0.06, Qualification of Engineering Personnel, Revision 3 The team evaluated the revised amendment to the NPC CoC No. 9294 for the addition of approved content to the radioactive material transportation packaging model. The team noted that GNF and GEH no longer use engineering change orders because GNF/GEH perform all engineering electronically. Therefore, the team interviewed the project engineer that performed the amendment at their computer to review the work flow and project documents including electronic reviews and approvals. The team noted that there is a traveler summary document associated with every quality document which shows the individuals that performed the reviews and approvals and the date when personnel add their electronic signature. The team assessed that all reviewer and approver comments are also addressed electronically and are retrievable in the GEH engineering electronic data base system. The team did note that once engineering approves the documents, engineering personnel releases the document into the quality record/document system for use and view by all GNF/GEH staff. The team verified that for the NPC amendment, Safety Analysis Report (SAR) revisions, design basis records (which included calculations), and drawings were independently reviewed and approved electronically.

Additionally, the team assessed that NPC change in content amendment had a criticality calculation associated with it that used the Keno computer software analysis program. The team verified that GNF provided quality assurance to the Keno program in accordance with their procedures.

The team assessed that overall, GNF through GEH engineering was effectively implementing its design control procedures as demonstrated through the review of the NPC amendment. The team found that GNF/GEH developed and processed all engineering quality documents in accordance with applicable procedures and design documents received the proper independent verification reviews and approvals. The team also found the training and qualification records for the GEH engineering staff that worked on the NPC new contents amendment project were adequate to justify their experience, knowledge, and ability to perform the amendment.

Therefore, there were no concerns identified by the team in the design control area as subject to the sample chosen.

02.05 Review selected drawings, procedures and records, and observe selected activities being performed to determine that design and maintenance activities meet SARP design requirements documented in the CoC.

Maintenance Activities The team reviewed selected drawings, procedures and maintenance records for the maintenance and inspection activities for the NPC or RAJ-II transportation radioactive material packages. The team also reviewed the maintenance requirements and inspection procedures associated with the UX30 overpacks that GNF used to transport radioactive material.

Specifically, the team reviewed and observed selected activities pertaining to the handling and storage of empty or loaded RAJ-II and NPC shipping containers. The activities that the team witnessed were loading of an NPC used to ship a payload of scrap material offsite (s/n: N-0417)
and a pre-loaded and final inspection of an NPC and RAJ-II shipping container, respectivel This included the review of three Inner Containment Canister Assembly (ICCA) test results performed on July 15, 2016 for the NPC and other applicable maintenance on two other NPC in December of 2019 (S/Ns: N-0210 and N-0148). The team also observed the refurbishing operations of the RAJ-II that included weld examinations and visual inspections.

The team assessed that GNF adequately captured and addressed the maintenance requirements from the SAR during the inspection and maintenance refurbishment process. The team noted that GNF maintained the shipping containers in a protective environment, segregated by type, status (empty, loaded, refurbished, etc.) and adequately identified by the individual container serial number and its present status. The team also noted that GNF sealed loaded containers with non-tamper wire seals and the refurbished containers with non-tamper mylar seals. The team determined that GNF adequately implemented operations and documented inspection requirements in accordance with the SAR and inspection procedures.

The team assessed that GNF's maintenance records of NPC and RAJ-II, all conformed to various GNF operating procedures and refurbishment inspection checklists. Additionally, the team noted that GNF routinely inspected and maintained the UX-30 overpacks prior to each use. The team noted that GNF electronically recorded, as defined and required by procedure, all weld and other non-weld inspection attributes and that the weld inspector was a qualified SNT-TC-1A, VT-1 examiner.

02.06 Observe activities affecting safety aspects of the packaging (such as fabrication, assembly, and testing) to verify that they are performed in accordance with approved methods, procedures, and specifications Control of Measuring and Test Equipment The team focused on maintenance and inspection activities since there was no ongoing fabrication for the NPC or RAJ-II transportation radioactive material packages. The team interviewed personnel and reviewed personnel training and qualification records, and controls for tools and equipment use in the refurbishment and loading (new fuel rods or scrap material)
of RAJ-II and NPC containers. The team reviewed the control of measuring and test equipment (M&TE) procedure to evaluate how GNF identified, specified, and controlled tools and equipment in accordance with applicable standards and regulatory requirements. The team selected a sample of the M&TE used during the refurbishment and loading of the RAJ-II and NPC shipping container. The sample included a review of torque wrenches (W17641 and W17105). The team also reviewed the calibration reports to verify calibration dates, testing standards, and traceability of the associated M&TE.

Overall, the team assessed that GNF established controls of M&TE in accordance with standards and regulatory requirements. The team assessed that GNF maintenance and operation personnel provided the appropriate information on checklists and work packages in accordance with approved procedures. The team found the M&TE program to be adequate with no concerns.

Maintenance Material Control The team observed activities at the RAJ-II refurbishing work station to assess how GNF controlled the spare parts used in the RAJ-II refurbishment operations. The team reviewed five ITS Category B components (i.e., the lid and clamp bolts, helicoil threaded insert, shock absorbers, and end face component). For the most part, the team noted that GNF maintained material control of spare parts during the receipt of the component from the quality supplie However, the team noted that the material control and traceability of the spare part components in the refurbishment area lacked those same controls. Specifically, material control and traceability were not appropriately established nor verified to be taken from or tracked back to the supplier material quality release records. The team noted that GNF had mixed spare part components at the point of use location following removal of the original lot identification for the spare parts. The team observed components mixed in containers with no markings, scrap material with good material, helicoil threaded inserts were in multiple containers and in cabinets with no documentation. The team determined that there was no traceability to the original receipt documentation prior to use and installation of the ITS components during the refurbishment operation.

The team assessed that this was a violation of NRC requirements. Specifically, 10 CFR 71.117, Identification and control of materials, parts, and components, which states, in part, that the certificate holder shall establish measures for the identification and control of materials, parts, and components. These measures must assure that identification of the item is maintained by heat number, part number, or other appropriate means, either on the item or on records traceable to the item, as required throughout fabrication, installation, and use of the item. These identification and control measures must be designed to prevent the use of incorrect or defective materials, parts, and components. Contrary to, as of January 30, 2020, certificate holder (GNF) did not establish measures to assure that identification of the item is maintained by heat number, part number, or other appropriate means, either on the item or on records traceable to the item, as required throughout fabrication, installation, and use of the item.

Specifically, GNF in the process of purchase and after release from supplier quality of ITS components to control for shop use to assure traceability. The team dispositioned the violation in accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy. The team characterized the violation as a Severity Level IV non-cited violation (NCV). The NRC plans to treat this NRC identified violation as an NCV consistent with section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. GNF acknowledged the information presented and documented the NCV in their corrective action program for resolution as condition report (CR) number 33611. Additionally, GNF evaluated this CR under the quality notice QN-02243, dated 2/13/2020.

02.08 Review selected records and interview selected personnel to verify that a nonconformance control program is effectively implemented, and that corrective actions for identified deficiencies are technically sound and completed in a timely manner The team reviewed selected records and interviewed selected personnel to verify that GNF effectively implemented a nonconformance control program, and that personnel completed corrective actions for identified deficiencies in a technically sound and timely manner.

Specifically, the team reviewed GNFs quality procedure CP-15-100, Control of Nonconforming Items, Revision 3.2 and work instruction WI-15-100-02, GNFA Nonconforming Material Control, Revision 0.5. The inspectors reviewed a list of nonconformances, and corrective action reports from the last five years. Additionally, the team reviewed and assessed the corrective actions from the previous NOV (ML14078A627) and applicable 10 CFR 71.95 60-day reports associated with the RAJ-II, dated June 26, 2019. The team discussed the nonconformance and corrective actions with the GNF staff including the previous notice of violatio Overall, the team assessed that GNF had an adequate nonconformance and corrective action program in place to resolve deficiencies. GNF addressed concerns from the previous violation and the corrective actions addressed the deficiencies identified and GNF resolved those items in a timely manner.

02.09 Review selected records and procedures, interview selected personnel, and observe selected activities affecting the safety aspects of the packaging to verify that individuals performing activities affecting quality are properly trained and qualified, and to verify that management and quality assurance (QA) staff are cognizant and provide appropriate oversight.

The team reviewed the applicable procedures and records to assess if individuals performed quality-related activities in other sections of this report.

The team assessed that GNF implemented procedures for the qualification and certification of personnel. The team determined that GNF appropriately trained and qualified personnel according to standard requirements as noted in their quality procedures.

02.10 Verify that audits of the QA Program and activities affecting the safety aspects of the packaging are scheduled, have been performed as scheduled, and that identified deficiencies have been satisfactorily resolved in a timely manner.

The team reviewed the GNF audit program to determine if GNF scheduled, planned, and performed internal audits in accordance with approved implementing procedures. Specifically, the team reviewed CP-18-100, Quality Assurance Internal Audit Requirements, Revision 9.3 and CP-18-03, Lead Auditor Certification and Audit Team Training Requirements, Revision 6.

The team selected internal audits from the last five years, particularly related to transportation activities. The team reviewed the audit results to determine if GNF identified deficiencies and addressed the deficiencies with their corrective action program.

Overall, the team assessed that for the internal audits sampled GNF generally conducted audits with qualified and certified personnel and scheduled and evaluated applicable elements of their QAP for the transportation functional are
