This letter is also an interim report. Attachments 1 and 2 provide Eechtel Associates' interim reports in response to the Management Corrective Action Reports (MCAR-1 Report No.18 ard MCAR-1 Report No. 19). Attachment 3 is Eechtel's Quality Assurance Program Manage =ent Corrective Action Report (MCAR-21) which addresses undersized field welds. The Project Engineering response to MCAR-21 vill be included in our next 50 55(e) report-ITT Grinnell submitted to Bechtel Associates' Professional Corporation two engineering reports for review, one dealing with stress analysis of as-built veld configurations as found in a field survey and the second one providing the results of specific testing and a general history of Grinnell's experience with the type of welding in questien. These reports support a conclusion that the hanger velds vill not fail in service. Consumers Power and Eechtel, after review of these reports, agreed that additional work is necessary to strengthen the justification for an " accept as is" disposition. A meeting vill be held by early April with ITT Grinnell to determine the further actions required. g

Three additional load tests will be included. To establish the actual quantity of underspecified fillet welds, Bechtel
. is reviewing,all ASME hanger sketches originally engineered prior to May 1, 1978; the date Grinnell acknowledges full compliance with the code fillet veld size requirements. ,
For'ecast Dates on Corrective Actions Grinnell has committed to submit a preliminary copy of its test report by the end of February. The recent severe weather that paraly::cd the east coast forced Grinnell engineering at Providence to shut down for nearly 10 days which will probably cause some slippage in concluding this MCAR.

PROJECT: Consumers Power Company Midland Plant Units 1 & 2 Bechtel Job 7220 Status of Corrective Action and Investigation On February 13, 1978, Bechtel received Grinnell's analytical analys'is report on the 36 shop welds found underfabricated by Bechtel field OA personnel on random sample of 125 hangers. This report is presently being reviewed by Bechtel. . Bechtel is currently - an estimate of the number of underf.ibricated shop welds existing _. nangers shipped by Grinnell to the field through August 1977. sais estimate will also include the cost of reworking and the factors on uhich the estimate was based. Forecast Date on Correcti'.e Action Bechtel's estimate of the number of underfabricated shop welds and the cost of their rework will be completed by ,the end of February 1978. Review of the Grinnell analysis on underfabricated welds will be completed with.a disposition on applicability by March 17, 1978. Submitted by: [[ ym/3 Approved by: fic[M &I4 u b M Concurrence by:

As part of the investigation to determine the extent of fillet veld size discrep-ancies associated with hanger fabrication and identified in MCAR 18 and 19, a reinspection, using a weld fillet gauge, was conducted by Quality Control of a sanple of 80 completed hangers consisting of 300 field ucids. This sa=ple represents 10". of the Q-listed hangers uith field fillet welds installed to date. The reinspection was for the purpose of determining the actual field weld size conpared to Grinnell design and shetches. It was discovered that contrary to the specified field veld size required by Grinnell drawings, the actual field weld size
' RECOMMENDED ACTION (Optional)
- 1) Determine the cause of the deviation.
- 2) Request Project Engineering to evaluate the nonconforming conditions and deter-mine whether er not the worst probable case for undersized confiCuration has been identified. If not, instruct Quality Control accordingly to expand their sample to include the vorst case configuration.
- 3) Have Quality Control conduct additional reinspection of the field welds of the
. remaining installed hangers depending on Project Enginecring's disposition of (con t ' d. )
