: 3. Follwing much discussion on the attributes of NALCO 2000 and NALCO 39L watt:r treatments, it was resolved that NALCD 39L would be used next season in bcth the main engines. NALCO 39L exhibits less propensity for foaming then does hk.C0 2000. Also, since two of the Caterpillar diesels foam with NALCO 2000, U.S. Steel will try NALCO 39L in the foaming engines to see if the foam ca'n be climinated. TDI Service will review its water treatment SIM recorrnendations and attempt to update the material to reflect improved knowledge in the treatment area. U.S. Steel will drain as much water as possible from the main engine cooling water systems and recharge with fresh treated water following any problem with cylinder head cracks to reduce the possibility of continued operation with combustion gas contaminated water. A specific sampling source (water pump discharge) will be used to take all samples for treatment analysis.

TDI Service will review its water treatment SIM recorrnendations and attempt to update the material to reflect improved knowledge in the treatment area. U.S. Steel will drain as much water as possible from the main engine cooling water systems and recharge with fresh treated water following any problem with cylinder head cracks to reduce the possibility of continued operation with combustion gas contaminated water. A specific sampling source (water pump discharge) will be used to take all samples for treatment analysis.

APPLICATION FOR ISSUANCE OF SUBPOENAS Suffolk County hereby requests the Presiding Officer of this Licensing Board to issue subpoenas in the form attached hereto to (1) Titan Navigation, Inc.

(" Titan") and its subsidiary or affiliated companies (collectively, the " Titan Companies"),

(2) the State of Alaska, and (3) United States Steel Corporation

("U.S.

Steel").

The subpoenas direct the Titan Companies, the State of Alaska and U.S.

Steel to produce documents for inspec-tion and copying.

Issuance of the subpoenas is authorized by.

10 CFR, Section 2.720.

The documents requested are directly relevant to Suffolk County's emergency diesel generator contention concerning the I

cylinder head cracking problems'that have been experienced at the Shoreham Nuclear Power Station ("Shoreham").

The County's contention states that f

LILCO has failed to ensure rapid starting and reliable operation of the Shoreham emergency diesel generators (because) the diesels have suffered from cracking of (cylinder heads].

't,

. LILCO and Transamerica Delaval, Inc.

("TDI"), the manu-facturer of the Shoreham emergency diesel generators, assert that, since originally supplying diesel cylinder heads to Shoreham, TDI has improved the casting and manufacturing processes employed in producing 6ylinder heads and the inspection and testing techniques used in detecting flaws in TDI's casting and manu-facturing processes.

According to LILCO and TDI, these casting, inspection and testing improvements ensure that cracks and other casting defects will not occur in the cylinder heads currently produced by TDI (the "new heads"). / Accordingly, LILCO asserts 1

that its commitment to replace all cylinder heads with the new heads prior to fuel load eliminates any concerns respecting the reliability of the cylinder heads on the Shoreham diesel generators.

In support of this assertion, LILCO and TDI rely upon the operating history of the new cylinder heads manufactured by TDI.2/

The. nexus sought to be established by LILCO and TDI between the reliability and the operating history of the new heads is illustrated by both the Pratt Affidavit and the deposition of Mr.

i Pratt of August 2 and 3, 1983 (the "Pratt deposition"), pertinent parts of which are attached as Exhibit 1 to this Application.

I 1/ See, e.g.,

the Affidavit of Edward J. Youngling, the Shoreham Startup Manager, filed with this Board on July 7, 1983 (the

" Youngling Affidavit"), at 3-4.

See also the Affidavit of Richard A.

Pratt, TDI's Customer Service Manager, filed uith this Board on July 7, 1983 (the "Pratt Affidavit"), at 9-10.

2/ See, e.g.,

Pratt Affidavit, at 10.

, Information regarding the operating history of the new heads was first provided in the Pratt Affidavit, where it was alleged that the new heads are " free from the casting imper-fections" detected in the original cylinder heads and that

[clurrent production cylinder heads installed in six marine DMR V12-4 TDI diesel engines have accumulated over 19,000 hours0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br /> of reliable operation without any evidence of similar casting imperfections or head cracking failures having occurred.3/

According to Mr. Pratt, these six marine diesel engines are aboard three vessels owned and operated by Titan:

the Pride of 4/

Texas; the Star of Texas and the Spirit of Texas.-

Further information regarding the operating history of the new heads was provided at the Pratt deposition when Mr. Pratt testified that TDI has produced approximately 6'00 of the new style cylinder heads since September of 1980

. and to date, we have experienced no failures simi-lar to the ones that occurred at Shoreham.5/

Mr. Pratt later revealed that TDI had actually manufactured 636 new cylinder heads since September, 1980

/ and that his testimony 6

regarding the operating history of these 636 new heads was based upon the fact that there had been "no warranty orders issued for f

replacement of any of the new heads for failures similar to those (Shoreham]."7/

encountered at 3/ Id.

4/ Pratt deposition, at 78-80 (see Exhibit 1).

5/ Id.,

at 42 (see Exhibit 1).

~

6/ Id., at 65 (see Exhibit 1).

~

7/ Id., at 77 (see Exhibit 1).

I

1. - -. '

, Mr. Pratt, however, did not review all warranty orders applicable to the 636 new heads since, in his opinion, only seven diesel engines (other than the three Shoreham diesels) have accumulated enough hours to give " confidence in the reliability of the new production' heads."8/ These seven engines are the six 12-cylinder engines aboard the three Titan vessels and a 16-cylinder engine aboard the M.V. Columbia, a vessel owned by the State of Alaska which, according to Mr. Pratt, was retro-fitted with 16 new heads approximately two years ago, and has accumulated about 4,500 hours0.00579 days <br />0.139 hours <br />8.267196e-4 weeks <br />1.9025e-4 months <br /> of operation since that time.

Thus, Mr. Pratt reviewed only those warranty orders applicable to a total of 88 cylinder heads.9/

Mr. Pratt's testimony regarding the reliability of these 88 cylinder heads is suspect in light of documents discovered from LILCO following the Pratt deposition.

These documents indicate that during September 1982, a cylinder head aboard the Star of Texas cracked in the intake valve port.

This same documentation reveals l

that the Edwin H.

Gott, a vessel owned by U.S. Stee and part j

of that company's Great Lakes Fleet, has experienced numerous j

cylinder head failures since 1979.

These failures are relevant f

to the reliability of the new heads produced by TDI since, by I

Mr. Pratt's own testimony, TDI had generally completed its l

+ changes in the production,. inspection and testing tec'hniques for the'new heads as of late 1978.10/ Copies of the TDI docu.

ments relevant to the head failures on the Star of Texas and the Edwin H.

Gott are attached as Exhibit 2 to this Application.

No documentation respecting the M.V. Columbia was produced by 1

LILCO.

Based on the foregoing, Suffolk County hereby requests the Titan Companies, the State of Alaska and U.S. Steel to produce for inspection and copying.the documents described below.

The documents are plainly relevant, because they will tend to establish the actual operating history of the new heads installed on diesel engines owned or operated by entities either specifically refer: red to and relied upon by LILCO (Titan and the State of Alaska) or disclosed by documents discovered from LILCO (Titan and U S.

Steel).

Therefore, they are properly the subject of a t

subpoena under 10 CFR, Section 2.720.

Further, it is necessary that the County have access to these documents in order to conduct l

cross-examination of the LILCO witnesses durf.ng the hearing on i

the County's diesel generator head cracking contention.

It is requested that the documents be produced within 15 i

days of service of this Application and the applicable suLpoena at the offices of Suffolk County's undersigned counsel, 1900 M

Street, N.W.,

8th Floor, Washington, D.C.

[Mr. Early entered deposition room. ]

6 MR. DYNNER:

Q.

Mr. Pratt, you testified that since 7

September, 1980, Delaval has produced approximately 600 of the 8

new style heads; is that correct?

Is my recollection correct?

9 A.

Yes, that is correct.

It's slightly over; 636 to 10 be precise..

11 0

Now, do you know what portion of those cylinder 12 heads were installed in new diesel engines?

13 A.

No, I would have difficulty putting-a figure on 14 that because a certain number of heads have been sold to 15 customers such as Long Island Lighting and other customers 16 which would detract from that number.

17 A ballpark nu::tber' to be used in installation on new 18 units would be 450.

19 MR. ELLIS:

Mr. Dynner, I fail to see the relevance of 20 it.

If you could point out to me the relevance, if it is 21 vital to some particular issue, we may endeavor to collect the 22 appropriate figure for you.

MR. DYNNER:

Let's ask Mr. Pratt.

p

^-

3 THE WITNESS:

I base that statement on the fact that I.

4 there had been no warranty orders issued for replacement of any 5

of the new heads for failures similar to those encountered at 6

LILCO.

7 MR. DYNNER:

Q.

Could you describe what you mean by 8 j warranty order?

I 9j A.

Engines typically, when they are shipped from 10 our plant, are warranted for one year of operation after start-11 up.

12 Any part that does not function properly during that

13. ' one-year period and possibly for a considerable period af ter 14 : that time that we deem to be replaceable under that warranty, t

15 ' is ordered on our warranty order f orm.

It is a form of no 16 l charge parts ordering.

~

17 Q.

Have you reviswed all of the warranty orders that 18 you believe could be applicable to the. 636 new heads?

19 A.

I have reviewed what I would consider a sufficient 20 number of job files of engines which are in operation with the 21 new heads to, verify that, no, we have not had to replace any 22 of those heads for a failure mechanism similar to what occurred

/

23 at LILCO.

24 Q.

What do you think is a sufficient number as you 25 stated?

26 MR. ELLIS:

Well --

27 THE WITNESS:

Give me a moment to add these up.

The 28 number would be 88 cylinder heads.

4 MR. ELLIS:

5 THE WITNESS:

No.

6 MR. DYNNER:

Q.

Could you explain what you meant?

7 MR. ELLIS:

Are you asking with respect to preparation 8

for this deposition or whether in the course of his business, 9 ' he ' reviews warranty orders?

10 MR. DYNNER:

I am asking him on what he based the 11 statement that he made earlier, which I think is a correct 12 characterication of his testimony, that of the approximately 13 636 new style heads produced since September, 1980, there have 14 ! been no f ailures similar to those experienced at Shoreham.

15 !

Q.

Is that a correct statement of your testimony,.

s 16 Mr. Pratt?

17 A.

That's correct.

18 Q.

And I am asking the witness the basis for his 19 statement.

20 Now, could you explain -- if there is no objection 21 from Mr. Ellis -- could you explain what you meant by your 22 review of warranty orders with respect to 88 heads?

23 A.

Eighty-eight heads would be the total number of heads j

24 installed in the two particular jobs that I researched that 25 have accumulated the greatest number of hours since they were 26 manufactured and shipped from the plant.

27 Q.

What were those two particular jobs, Mr. Pratt?

28 A.

That was the Levingston ship building, which our

MR. ELLIS:

You are obviously gcing to be longer on 1

2 this.

Can we take a break after this question?

3 MR. DYNNER:

Sure.

4 THE WITNESS :.Again, research of our service records indicates whether or not a particular engine has started up 5

6 and when it would have started up; and, therefore, knowing the operation of those engines and the approximate number of hours 7

8 that the engines would accumulate each year, I drew the 9

conclusion that-the Levingston and Alaskan Marine Highway and 10 LILCO heads were the only ones that I could reasonably look at and justify as accumulating enough hours to give me confidence 11 12 in the reliability of the new production heads.

13 MR. DYNNER:

Q.

Okay.

Thank you, Mr. Pratt.

We can i

14 take a lu'nch break now.

I'm sorry I went slightly over the 15 12:30 point.

r 16 MR. ELLIS:

Let me just say that we took this detour 17 because you said you would cut through it.

I am assuming then, to 18 that unless you want to, when we come back you may want to review 19 consider what, if any, part of the request you want 20 and we will take it up at that time.

2I MR. DYNNER:

1 think what is becoming clear, Mr. Ellis, 22 is that my request now becomes especially pertinent, because 2'

it becomes obvious if one were to attempt to obtain accurate j

~

information with respect to each cylinder head, one needs in 24 the nature of the complete inf ormation that I have requested.

25 26 Now, it may be on the basis of what I think Mr. Pratt has testified to that Delaval doesn't have documented information 27 about certain of the items that I am going to be interested in.

i 5

MR. D$NNER:

O Mr. Pratt, is it correct that with 6

respect to your assertion either in your affidavit or in your 7 ! testimony here today that you are relying for your statement S

that the reliability record of the current production model

~

9 cylinder heads gives you assurance that the new cylinder heads are. free from the type of casting imperfections detected at 10 i

11 : Shoreham, that-you are relying solely upon the operating history,

12 i of the 83 heads that you identified previously today?

l 13 A Yes.

I think that's a valid assumption.

14 As Mr. Ellis was stating earlier, we have built 636 of 15 these heads since September of 1980; hoaever, numerous of them installed and sitting on shelves in the warehouse.

' '(..

Numerous of them.,- in f act the greater majority of them l

16 are not 17 i I'

18 ! are installed on new construction engir.es that have either not 19 been installed and started up yet, or have very minimal hours 20 on them, and therefore, I did not take them into account when I was considering what jobs or heads to look at and base any kind 21 and that's i

22 l of an assumption on reliability of the new heads, why I focus my attention on the Texas class vessels which have l

23 1

24. the 72 heads, on the M.V. Columbia, and on the five heads at 1

25 : LILCO.

i 26 Now I should mention in passing that the LILCO engines i

1 I

27 i operate at a EMEP rating of 225 rating -- BMEP.

20 The cylinder heads on the Texas class vessels operate at l

248 BMEP, which is roughly 10 percent more lead than the heads 1

2, at LILCO will see.

t Therefore, they are stressed higher than tihe heads of l

3 i

and I will state again that the 19,000 LILCO will be stressed, 4

hours that they have accumulated -- now that's 9,000 hours0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br /> per 5

6 hull, per engine, it's not 9,000 hours0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br /> distributed over two 7 ! engines, so that's two engines that have 9,000 hours0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br /> each on 8

them.

If you are going to distribute it over the entire number 10, of engines, it would be 38,000 hours0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br /> total.

You stated in response to Mr. Ellis that there were 15. new heads, as you define them, manufactured prior to 1980.

16 Could you define for me exactly what you mean by new 17 heads?

5 pattern equipment which caused an external visual appearance j

6 change, and was done primarily to incorporate the ongoing 7

changes to the old patterns, and in an effort to reduce 8!

foundry rework.

9!

Q.

Were all of the changes in the casting techniques 10 i made by late 1978 -- that is to say, all of the changes in 11 the casting techniques that you testified to yesterday, 12 alluded to this morning?

13l A.

A great majority of them.

I4 The only change that I'm aware of that was not i

incorporhted by that time was the change in the gating, and 15 16 {

I believe that was incorporated after September of 1980.

17 But you don't regard that as sufficiently important Q.

I so that it would change your definition of the new heads; is 18 19 that correct?

i 20 i A.

No, I do not.

[

I 21 That would merely eliminate problems and foundry i

22 t

i.

'23 Well,- based upon this recent definition, your g

O.

i 24 definition of the new heads --

i 25 MR. ELLIS:

Read that back again.

26 Based on this recent definition that MR. DYNNER:

27 you have given of the new heads --

-a 213 MR. DYNNER:

Let me finish the question and then 3

y u can object if you wish.

2 Q.

Is it fair to say that there have been more than 3,

636 new heads manufactured by Delaval?

4 i

5[

A.

Yes.

I 6

Q.

When you gave us the history of operation of new heads yesterday, why did you refer only to the 636 heads that 7

8 had been produced since September, 1980?

9 A.

Because the --

MR. ELLIS:

Let me object to the question.

10 'i 11 [

I think it's only fair to the witness that if we had 12 j the transcript, I think that's the implicit -- implicit in i

13 i the question.

14 But in any event, answer the question, Mr. Pratt.

15 MF., DYNNER:

Do you object to the question?

T6 l MR. ELLIS:

Yes, I do.

i 17 MR. DYNNER:

All right.

Let me clarify the basis for 18 the question, Mr. Pratt.

19 Q.

Do you recall yesterday we talked about your

! definition of new heads -- I asked him -Atether he recalled.

20 '

21 You certainly can't object to that, can you?

22 MR. ELLIS:

I don't object.

We discussed a definition for heads I

-23 THE WITNESS:

f 24 that were termed as new, yes.

25 MR. DYNNER:

Q.

And do you recall that in my~ ques-tioning of you yesterday, we were talking about new heads as 26 those that were manufactured since September of 19807 t

27 i

That was the general gist of the conversation at 28 A.

incorporated the new -- or the cast 3

A.

Heads that,

using the new pattern equipment.

4 And now the definition that you have given l

5 O.

Yes.

in response to Mr. Ellis' question would indicate that you 6

are talking about new heads as being those that were manu-7 Bi f actured since late 1978; isn't that correct?

9 MR. ELLIS:

I object to the question so far as it implies you asked him for a definition yesterday of new heads 10 11 as he was using it in his affidavit.

12 Perhaps you did, and perhaps he answered as you said --

13 :

I don't have the transcript before me, but I recall that was his intention in my discussions with him -- that's why I not 15 asked the question.

16 MR. DYNNER:

I think you are mistaken, Mr. Ellis, but 17 I think we can ask the witness whether --

MR. ELLIS:

I thought you asked him how many heads were 18 19 produced since September of 1980.

20!

I think the transcript will show we MR. DYNNER:

I 21 a definition of new heads yesterday during the i

arrived at 22 course of my examination.

/

as it may, would you please reread the question 23 Be that 24 for us?

25 i

THE REPORTER:

[ Record read as followsr 26 Yes. And now the definition

" Question:

question would indicate that you are talkinc 28 g

215 i

about new heads as being those that were manu-l i

factured since late 1978; isn't that correct?")

l 2

THE WITNESS:

Again, that is not totally correct, 3

because it depends on the drawing of a specific line to deter-mine whether or not a head is new.

5.

I use the September, 1980 definition because that --

6 those are the heads that LILCO has, and will be putting on i

7 s

their engines now.

9 MR. DYNNER:

All right.

10 Q.

Now, Mr. Pratt, were the changes that were made in the production of the cylinder heads at Delaval, which you 11 12 '. believe solved the problems that arose with the Shoreham heads excuse me -- made by late 1978?

13 made subsequent --

14 A.

Yes, they were.

15 Q. So in your judgment, would the operation history of heads that were manuf actured since late 1978, be relevant 16 17 I to the consideration of.the reliability of the Delaval heads?

i A.

Yes, it would.

18{

19 '

O.

Now you very kindly yesterday gave us your view of had the operating history of a portion of the 636 heads that 20 21 been manufactured since 1980 in September; is that correct?

22 A.

Correct.

23 Q.

Do you have information concerning the operating

\\

l 24 history of heads produced between late 1978 and September of i

i 25 1980?

I do not have that material at my fingertips.

26 A.

27 It would be available in our records, yes.

28 Q.

Have you reviewed that material in order to make t.

O The' following are minutes of.a meeting held with Transamerica DeLaval on

. November 20, 1980 at the Lake Shipping Office - Duluth,, Minnesota In Attendance:

Mr.

C'. Trussell Transamerica DeLaval i

Mr.sR.' Erickson Transamerica DeLaval Mr. C. King Transamerica DeLaval' Mr. S. Schumacher Transamerica DeLaval Mr. D. Wyr.cott Nalco Chemical Company Mr. S. Lamp Nalco Chemical Company Mr. R. McCartney USS Research Laboratory Mr. k'.

Bertz USS Lake Shipping Mr. B. Liberty USS Lake Shipping Mr. E. Merry USS lake Shipping i

The purpose of the meeting was to discust and resolve certain outstanding r

problems n lative to the operation and maintenance of the DeLaval DMRV engines, Serial f75039-40, installed on the M/V EDWIN H.'GOTT.

l.,

Head Problems Review of 1980 Experf ence - Since fit-out 1980, five heads have a.

failed.

Four of these heads were on the starboard engine and one on the port. Of the five heads, the last failure on MM,-Qgg % November 13, 1980 was to a stress relieved and pickled head that gp accumulated 2,392 hours0.00454 days <br />0.109 hours <br />6.481481e-4 weeks <br />1.49156e-4 months <br /> prior to failure.

b.

Mr. King gave a review of Transamerica Delaval's resea reh into the head failure problem. He concluded that (1) locked up casting stresses in the heads precipitated cracking failure and (2) a severe aeratien probicm in the starboard engine contributed to hot spots which in turn caused head failures. The Water Trcatment Program supervised by halco Chemical Company did not contribute to the failures.

~

c.

At this point, Mr. Bertz stated that he would meet separately with -

Mr. King and Mr. Erickson to discuss any contributing financial responsibility on the part of U. S. Steel concerning the head failures. This meeting was held at the conclusion of the group meeting.

Mr. Bertz again stated that U. S. Steel did not have any contributing responsibility for the head cracks and we would stand on the answer to the problem given in Mr. Bertz' letter to Mr. Durie dated June 13, 1980. Transamerica DeLaval indicated that the stand-pipe causing the' aeration was designed by the shipyard naval archi-j tect, R. A. Stearn, and therefore, was considered owner-furnished.

Mr. Bertz pointed out that the standpipe was constructed in accor-dance with information received from DeLaval and neither the ship-

_ yard nor U. S. Stesl was in possession of the Transamerii:a DeLaval drawing #00-700-01-D! showing a detail design of the standpipe for jacket water 'even though the drawing was dated in October 1973.

Mr. King acknowledged that this design information was not submitted to the owner prior to placing the engines in operation and this was regrettabic.

Mr. Bertz again pointed out that there was certainly no justification for U. S. Steel to share in the cost of the warranted hesd failures.

Mr. King stated that he personally ac-cepted this explanation.

If his superiors di.i not enre to appeal it, the matter would be considered closed.

Pile, S/N 75039/40 Janua ry 23, 1981 of head failures 7 This date is apprcximately two weeks af ter the engineers first noticed recalling the fos =inE proble=, and three weeks after the Nalco 2000 was put into the systa=.

Dave Cliff ord recalled some f oaming problems early in the season.

During subsequent review of the jacket water treatment and test logs, it was found that Nalco 2000 was used as the jacket water treatment early in the season also.

I was unaware of this condition previously.

The heads which have failed thus far and were found during lay up are as follows:

(This condition similar to that which exists on the cylinders l

j vith failed heads.)

Measured starboard engine valve stem wear. Wear is consider-ably worse than the port valves. Plotted data. Plot shows normal straight line wear up to 5000 hours0.0579 days <br />1.389 hours <br />0.00827 weeks <br />0.0019 months <br />. At this point the starboard exhaust guides were replaced with new guides. Plot shows accelerated wear on exhaust valve stems from SK to 10K hours.

The f ollowing starboard valves were recommended replaced:

Our visit to the vessel was made in preparation for a meeting requested by Ralph Bertz where he and his stEff wished to discuss engine component problems experienced witn the plant during the last Ralph, with Dick Erickson's support, felt it mandatory we get season.

Follwing much discussion on the attributes of NALCO 2000 and NALCO 39L watt:r treatments, it was resolved that NALCD 39L would be used next season in bcth the main engines.

NALCO 39L exhibits less propensity for foaming then does hk.C0 2000.

Also, since two of the Caterpillar diesels foam with NALCO 2000, U.S. Steel will try NALCO 39L in the foaming engines to see if the foam ca'n be climinated. TDI Service will review its water treatment SIM recorrnendations and attempt to update the material to reflect improved knowledge in the treatment area. U.S. Steel will drain as much water as possible from the main engine cooling water systems and recharge with fresh treated water following any problem with cylinder head cracks to reduce the possibility of continued operation with combustion gas contaminated water. A specific sampling source (water pump discharge) will be used to take all samples for treatment analysis.

U.S. Steel has cut a purchase order for TDI to repair five cylinder heads returned for leak inspection, Two_ of the heads are stress relieved oickled-heads exhibitine vaftical cracks in the back wall M'l-D EE ofTna avhaus Cort.

any interest in a sprayed-on ceramic coating applied to the fire deck and the exhaust port surfaces.

Bertz and Liberty were interested and Geoff will follow up on this possibility.

5.

Although it was necessary to rework all pistons to clean up the minor fretting at the crown skirt interface and the fourth ring groove.

U.S. Steel felt it best to bring pistons to current dimensional standards.

Also, studs fonnerly torqued to 250 ft. Ibs. were replaced because of possibility of bending and twisting during installation.

Future studs should give piston life perfont.ance since the seating
