INTRODUCTION ,

A Self-Initiated Evaluation, following Institute of Nuclear Power Operations (INPO) guidelines, was conducted for the Perry Nuclear Power PlantConstruction Project for Units #1 and #2 during the weeks of October 4 and 11, 1982. The Perry Plant is jointly owned by a group of five electric utilities--The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company (CEI), Ohio Edison Company, Toledo Edison Company, Pennsylvania Power Company, and Duquesne Light Company. CEI is acting as the Owners' representative for the group.

The Perry Nuclear Power Plant is located 35 miles northeast of Cleveland, Ohio, in North Perry Village and Perry Township on the shore of Lake Erie.

The Perry Plant will consist of two 1205 MWE General Electric Boiler Water Reactor Units. At the time of this evaluation, Unit #1 (including common facilities) was approximately 87% complete and Unit #2 was approximately 45%

complete. Unit #1 is scheduled for commercial operation in 1984 and Unit #2 On 1988.

Overall management of the PNPP Project activities is the responsibility of CEI, referred to as the Owner throughout this summary. The Owner has dele-gated design responsibilities to both General Electric (NSSS) and Gilbert Associates, Inc. (A/E). Construction management assistance is provided by Raymond Kaiser Engineers,.Inc. Construction work is performed by a number of companies contracted by the Owner.

e i

PURPOSE AND SCOPE The ultimate objective of this Self-Initiated Evaluation is to ensure that the program in effect is meeting the performance goals intended. Specifically, '

the evaluation was performed to confirm that the plant is being built to the design requirements by identifying the existence and adequacy of controls for design, construction and other important activities. As a basis for.the evaluation, INPO developed performance objectives and criteria were used for

each of the seven performance categories examined. Conditions found in each

,' performance area were evaluated against the parformance criteria for that area, with good practices identified as well as findings requiring corrective 1 actions. The report includes these findings and the Project responses showing corrective actions planned. This evaluation was undertaken as part of an industry effort guided by INPO to examine the status of current Nuclear Con-struction Projects. Benefits are anticipated for both the Perry Project and the Nuclear Industry.

This Self-Initiated Evaluation was conducted at the Perry Site and at the Gilbert (A/E) Design Offices in Reading, Pennsylvania, to assess activites related to the design, construction, and preoperational testing of Units #1 and #2. The evaluation did not include the transmission station, fuel pro-curement, NSSS vendor, and some contractors with limited design responsibil-ities. However, interfaces with these areas were taken into account as part of the evaluation.

The evaluation examined the project organization and administration, corporate management support, design control, training, construction control, project support, quality programs, and test control activities as part of the overall assessment. Information was assembled by an evaluation team through discus-sions and interviews with Project and A/E personnel, observations of activi-ties, and reviews of procedures and documents. Interviews were held with key corporate officers of the Owner, the A/E, and the construction management consultant to assess the corporate support of the Project. Construction con-tractor activities also were included within the scope of this evaluation.

This evaluation was conducted by a team of 16 engineering and construction experts. Appendix II contains an organization chart for the team and the resumes of all team members. The team consisted of a Team Manager from the Owner's corporate office, a team leader and a liaison person from the Perry Project 0rganization, eight engineering management personnel from the Owner's corporate office, one from Toledo Edison, two consultants, and two engineering management personnel from Gilbert (A/.E) who are not associated with the Perry

Project. The team was supported by a representative from the INPO Self-Initiated Evaluation Task Force who had also participated in the three INPO pilot evaluations.

^

l The evaluation team was formed in September 1982. Seven members of the team

] attended an INPO two-day workshop in preparation for the evaluation. The entire team spent two weeks at the site in training on the evaluation method-ology and in preparing work plans for the evaluation. In all, approximately '

1,300 hours0.00347 days <br />0.0833 hours <br />4.960317e-4 weeks <br />1.1415e-4 months <br /> were spent in training and preparation, and another 1,300 hours0.00347 days <br />0.0833 hours <br />4.960317e-4 weeks <br />1.1415e-4 months <br /> were spent in performing the evaluation.

n DETERMINATION

^

Within the scope of this evaluation, the team determined that the Perry con-struction Project is under good control. This rating is based on the fact that all areas assessed were either'under good control or activities were underway to enhance existing controls.

In the process of conducting this -evaluation, the following strengths were noted: -

f

1. The construction effort is being strongly supported, with all admin-istrative, quality, procurement, and engineering activities located at the site. This includes a large site design element working as an extension of the A/E design office.
2. The high level of involvement of the Owner's personnel and their leadership role in the construction support organization further emphasize tha commitment by the Owner to the Perry Project.
3. A high level of corporate management involvement and support by both the Owner and the A/E was evident.
4. Management has identified and is making the organizational changes
in a timely manner required for the transition from the construction ,

] phase to the construction / start-up/ operations phase.

S. The qualification and experience level in the overall construction organization was found to be noteworthy. This is further enhanced by the long tenure on this project of key members of the Owner's organizatica as well as those of the consultants.

. 6. The facilities and equipment to support construction were rated very good based on observations of various construction and testing activities.

7. The corporate goal of constructing a sa'fe, reliable plant is being '

actively pursued throughout the Project Organization. There was indication of high morale in many of the interviews, along with an eagerness to offer constructive suggestions.

< Through re' view of specific findings and concerns from this evaluation, some weaknesses were identified. In a number of cases those weaknesses had been recognized by the Owner with corrective measures underway, but results I observed during the evaluation did not appear sufficient to meet project objectives and will require increased management attention. These weaknesses are summarized as follows: ,

1. The document management program and the "As-Built" drawing program require a high level of effort in the near term to assure meeting Project requirements.

i I

111 l

l

2. The Preoperational Test Program, including Turnover methods, re-quires increased training at the working level as soon as possible to ensure a smooth transition from construction to test and test to operations.
3. There needs to be increased emphasis on training by Supervision to assure that existing procedures are known and followed by all Project Organization and contractor personnel.
4. In view of recent organization changes, additional specific job descriptions and position responsibility guides need to be developed for the Project Organization to assure that individuals have a good understanding of their authorities and responsibilities.
5. Storage of equipment and materials and field maintenance activities need to be upgraded.

SUMMARY

OF GOOD PRACTICES.AND FINDINGS .

As discussed above, the evaluation dealt with saven specific performance ,

categories, with several performance areas in each category. Following is a summary of each category evaluation, with a brief statement of Good Practices and Findings for each area.

- Organization and Administration Th's organizational structure is in place and functioning effectively to ensure a high level of management control and the accomplishment of corporate quality commitments for the Perry Project.

0A.1 Organization Structure Finding Summary a Page OA.1-1 Good Practice: Owner's technical and support 2 -

personnel located on site.

0A.1-2 Good Practice: Integrated Project Team 2 combines strengths of several erganizations.

0A.1-3 Good Practica: Owner has formed an on-site 2 design team.

0A.3 Role of First Line Supervisors and Middle Managers Finding Summary Page OA.3-1 Job descriptions are not available for some 9 Owner personnel.

0A.3-2 In some Sections, subtier organization charts 9 need to be developed or updated.

Desian Control

-The design control effort is generally well performed. The Construction Engineering area in particular appears to be strong as a result of having highly experienced people with long tenure on the project. There were

, few findings in the design control area and these were related primarily to lack of knowledge of procedures and vagueness in some of the proca-dures.

Training The evaluation of the training area covered management support, organi-zation, the actual training and qualification of Project employees, and training facilities. Despite a few specific findings, employees in most instances are appropriately trained. Additional emphasis needs to be placed on procedural training and adherence to procedures. Strong management support was evident and a recent improvement to the training organization was noted. The new Training Center now under construction should alleviate facilities problems in the future.

A. In a review of organization charts and documents relative to the on-site Project personnel, it was noted that an integrated Project Team is established consisting of people from Owner and several other companies. The integration exists in management, engineering, construction management, and various support activities. Owner personnel retain the lead in management and most supervisory positions. The September Project Progress Report shows.that the Owner Project Organiza-tion has a total of 1,199 people on-site. Of this total, the Owner has 528, with 216 of them in the Plant Department dedicated to plant operation efforts. The balance consists of 437 from Construction Management Consultant, 150 from the AE, 15 from NSSS Contractor and 69 from several consulting firms.

B. Interviews and discussions with many Project pefsonnel by all members of the Evaluation Team confirmed the team membership and the various company affiliations. The level of assignments and apparent capability of the individuals under the umbrella Owner management, and their tenure at the site, was found to be impressive.

C. Evidence of Scope Not Associated with Specific Findings

1. Some concerns relative to continuity and interfacing were noted in certain areas of the Project Organization during the evaluation that are considered attributable to recent organization changes.
a. A recent shift of engineering personnel from Nuclear Design & Analysis (ND&A) Section to the Nuclear Construction Engineering (NCE).Section who are responsible for Owner follow of AE' design was done in part. Not all responsible. engineers were transferred,
b. It was learned from AE engineers that as a result of the ND&A/NCE transfers, they now had to interface their engineering efforts with three separate Project groups at the Site.

The following good practice was noted:

(OA.2-1)

An Owner corporate policy requires that a Performance Analysis Report (PAR) be prepared and submitted monthly to Senior Management by each group. These reports supplement other means of communications and are designed to highlight significant problems, potential opportunities and anticipated actions.

The unique benefit provided by this PAR system is the insight that the Owner's senior management has to a greater depth within the organization than that normally realized within many large companies.

This is of particular importance on a nuclear constuction project. The PAR is considered to be a positive supplement to the normal reporting ,

means encountered on a project of this nature, made possible by having Owner personnel in manage-ment and most supervisory positions in the Site Project Organization.

SUMMARY

Conctruction Project Perry Plant Performance Area The Role of the First-Line Objective No. OA-3 Supervisors and Middle Managers Evaluator (s) H. R. Porter, R. G. Schuerger IV. Areas of weakness and corrective action; Good Practices Finding Job descriptions are not available for some of the

(OA.3-1) Owner's personnel who were contacted. The absence of these documents was noted in some of the long established groups as well as in some groups recently organized.

Corrective Management previously recognized the need to revise Action existing job descriptions and in some cases create (OA.3-1) new job descriptions listing Perry specific func-tional responsibilities and tasks. Tne Nuclear Project Training Section (NPTS) is currently work-ing with the Nuclear Quality Assurance Department in a pilot project to analyze the organizational QA structure and to develop functional position descriptions and corresponding training commit-ments. ,

This project will be expanded to include all ele-ments of the Project Organization on a priority basis. Action should be completed by April 30, 1983.

Each Section will be required to designate at least one individual to develop position descrip-tions and organization charts. NPTS will provide initial orientation and continuing guidance to I the designated individuals.

Based on the results of the pilot project, a Special Project plan will be developed by December 15, 1982, to include guidelines for development of functional position descriptions and provisions for revisions and annual reviews. NPTS is responsible for coordi-nating the above activities.

Finding Subtier organization. charts should be developed (OA.3-2) and/or updated in some sections.and distributed to i identify assigned responsibilities and interfaces.

A. Details in Support of Finding OA.3-1 Interviews were conducted with managers and supervisors in several sections of the Nuclear Engineering and Nuclear Construction Departments. In several of the interviews it was determined that the individual had no written job description, and in some instances it was indicated that job descriptions did not exist for their subordinates. It was determined that an Owner corporate policy requires job descriptions for all employees.

B. Details in Support of Finding OA.3-2 It was found through discussions and review oh section organization charts that certain groups within the section show up as a long list o'f names. Comments made'by some individuals to Evaluation Team members indicated that a more visible means is needed to show assigned responsibilities, levels of authority, and interfaces, such as a subtier organization chart that is available to interfacing organizations.

C. Evidence of Scope Not Associated with Specific Findings:

It is not evident from a review of the major piping contractor's organization chart that there is any direct supervision of the Assistant Resident Construction Manager, who has direct responsibility for craft labor. Only an information line of communication exists between the Assistant Resident Construction Manager and the Resident Construction Manager. There is a concern that this condition could hamper proper construction management of the Project. Project management is aware of the situation and 6 is monitoring the situation to assure that there is adequate

! management control of' craft labor. CONCERN - AN ACTION

IV. Areas of weakness and corrective action; Good Practices Finding The interviews and document reviews discovered (DC.1-1) several instances of lack of use of the required A/E design input form. This is true of both safety and non-safety calculations. The appli-cation of this form to non-safety calculations is not clearly spelled out in the A/E procedures.

Corrective The calculations identified in the finding will be Action retrofitted with the design input form by the site (DC.1-1) design team personnel responsible for the calcula-tions by 12-1-82. We evaluated the need to review calculations to retrofit the form for those calcu-lations performed since 6-30-82 (when the form be-came' applicable to Perry). It was determined that this review was not required because it did not add significantly to the engineering support for the design. To prevent recurrence, A-/E lead engi-neers were reindoctrinated on 10-26-82 of the requirement for the use of the form, where required, on safety-related calculations. A review of the Engineering Operations Manual indicated that the manual adequately addressed the procedure. An indoctrination to the requirements for nonsafety calculations will be conducted for site design team personnel by 12-1-82. A/E internal design control audits will be used to verify that the problem is not recurring.

A. Details in Support of Finding (DC.1-1)

(1) An interview was held with the A/E site mechanical design personnel. A random check of a specific cal-culation for safety-related welds produced the fact that three required A/E design input forms were not used, although the work itself was done correctly.

(2) An interview was conducted with an A/E engineer who works on nonsafety-related seismic clearance viola-tions. Document reviews revealed that the A/E design input form was not used per procedure. The procedures are actually unclear as to how this form is to be used on nonsafety calculations.

B. Details in Support of Finding (DC.1-2) -

- In all interviews with A/E design personnel, it was asked how constructability reviews were performed. Generally, the response was that the A/E layout group performed this function.

The A/E layout group stated that they did not request review of layouts by the A/E Construction Services Group. Document reviews discovered that the A/E DCP 1.15 requires this review.

C. Evidence of Scope Not Associated with Specific Findings:

Areas of weakness and corrective action; Good Practices Finding After the fact design overview is not always (DC.2-1) being done and documented by the A/E Home Office engineers for work performed by the A/E Site Team.

The Perry Project Manual calls for A/E home office overview of Field Variance Authorizations, Engineer-ing Change Notices and Nonconformance Reports.

Corrective Appendix P to the Perry Project Manual (PPM) will Action be revised to require the A/E Home Office Project (DC.2-1) Engineer or his designee to initial field Noncon-formance Reports (as is already required on ECN's and FVA's). This procedure will be placed in effect by memo from the Project Manager by Novem-ber 1, 1982, and a formal revision to the PPM will be issued by December 31, 1982.

The Project Organization (P/0) distribution matrix has been revised to indicate the A/E Home Office on distribution for site NR's, effective Octo-ber 18, 1982.

For the period in question from December 1, 1980, to October 18, 1982, NR's were forwarded to the Home Office and have been overviewed and initialed. Prior to December 1, 1980, NR's were'being forwarded to j

the Home Office.

The project office will monitor this effort and assure its compliance.

The effectiveness of the implementation of the procedure revisions will be evaluated by the A/E Quality Assurance Division.

Finding - Although the specifications were generally being (DC.2-2) reviewed and comments documented by the mechanical disciplines of the Nuclear Design and Analysis l Section, the HVAC area specification review and comment documentation of some non-safety general I contracts is not always being carried out according to procedures.

1. Copies of completed Nonconformance Reports have not been arriving at the A/E home office as required in Appendix P of the A/E Interfaces Manual.
2. No procedure exists to document or sign-off that an overview of field Nonconformance Reports by the A/E home office has been completed.
3. A procedure exists for sign-off that overview of field Engineering Change Notices (ECN) has been completed by the A/E home office. This procedure is not always being followed as has been identified in a QA audit the week of October 4. Responsible Engineers interviewed during the week of October 11 were still unaware of the ECN sign-off requirements.

B. Details in Support of Finding DC.2-2

2. The vendor instruction book approval activity was investigated and procedures for distribution and review of books were being followed. Generally the Responsible Equipment Engineer coordinates this activity. There is no specific requirement for review of instruction books by Responsible System Engineers' but there are situations where instructions affect system design, such as the need for special temporary strainers, cool-ing water, and temperature control.

communications of changes in Project Administration Procedures which have secondary effects in the A/E home office. Recently the Project Administration Procedures were revised to show 30-day turnaround periods for the disposition and review of Nonconformance Reports. This change is not reflected in the A/E Design Control Procedures and is not known to all A/E Site or home office personnel.

SUMMARY

Construction Project Perry Plant Performance Area Design Process Objective No. DC-3 Evaluator (s) S. Biro, F. Jankowski, R. Villforth IV. Areas of weakness and corrective action: Good Practices Finding Installation problems during construction could be (DC.3-1) reduced by improved interference checking during the design review process and by the use of more

. construction details on the installation drawings.

Corrective We agree that additional interference checking at the Action home office could have resulted in improved construc-(DC.3-1) tion interfaces, i.e., fewer field problems. The effects of cost and schedule were considered in the early design phases of the project and as a result, the site design team was formed in 1978, with an em-phasis on resolving interferences and accumulation of tolerances in the field. The site design team was supplemented'in 1979, in the case of electrical con-duit design'by an on-site detailing effort directed specifically at an optimum cost / benefit solution to interference problems, and to provide additional con-struction details on the installation drawings. Recog-nizing completeness of the design, no further correc-tive action is required. ,

Areas of weakness and corrective action: Good Practices Finding Controls do not alway's exist to assure prompt 1 (DC.5-1) processing of documents which comprise the design change control system.

Corrective The procedural address for prompt processing of design Action changes was evaluated. There is no evidence indicat-(DC.5-1) ing that construction scheduling needs or Quality re-quirements have been compromised because of delays in i processing known changes. The contract team concept utilizes good communication to ensure that all parties are aware of priorities. The Contract Administrator generally expedites processing of documents affecting construction and the Quality Engineer generally ex-pedites documents affecting quality. None of the dis-ciplines have a proceduralized system and the evalu-ation concluded that it would not improve the effec-tiveness of the Engineering effort.

It is recognized that some Field Questions and Noncon-formance Reports may take longer. than 30 days to re-solve. Some may involve extensive evaluation, vendor contacts, additional inspections, etc. The intent of

the 30 day requirement is to help expedite resolutions and avoid unnecessary delays. A revision will be initiated by Construction Engineering by November 30, 1982, to Procedure 3-1501 to clarify the engineering requirements for the 30 day resolution and address the need for justification of delays.

(CC.1-1) The Nuclear Construction Engineering Section has developed a computerized valve information system which functions not only as a valve list, but also as a valve installed location, inventory, design verification, and start-up area identifica-tion program.

Finding The Nonconformance Report Log of the Site Design (CC.1-2) Team - Mechanical indicated that actions on some reports were pending beyond the 30-day turnaround requirements for disposition and review.

Corrective A review will be made by the site design team of Action the nonconformance report log to determine all (CC.1-2) violations of the applicable requirements of PAP '1502, para. 1.2.2. All violations will be cor-rected by the site design team engineer responsible for review of the nonconformance report by 11-1-82.

To prevent further recurrences of this problem, the A/E Perry Procedures Manual will be revised by 12-31-82 to add the requirements on timing of the review cycles and documenting reason for delay.

A review will be performed under the A/E Assistant Project Manager's direction in January 1983, to assure that the problem is not recurring.

Please note that the NR log maintained in the A/E site project office covers all disciplines; therefore, this corrective action will apply to all disciplines.

A. Details in Support of Finding CC.1-1

1. The Responsible Engineer for the site valve information system was interviewed as a result of commendations which were noted while evaluating the A/E Home Office Design Group. The system is a very sophisticated computerized system which offers a wide variety of i information, as well as performs some design and in-ventory control functions.
2. The actual valve printout was reviewed and demonstrated the wide usefulness and flexibility of the program.

! 3. The A/E Home Office Organization has a computer terminal which allows them to get up to the minute information concerning valve records, even though the Basic updating and administration of the program occurs at the site.

B. Details in Support of Finding CC.1-2

1. Review of logs indicated that the A/E Mechanical Site Team is not always following the Nonconformance Report Procedures. Procedure 1502, Revision 2, calls for ,

30-day disposition and 30-day review periods. The log showed NR's pending since 1981 without documentation of reasons for passing the deadlines, as required by procedures.

2. The 30-day NR deadline periods generally were not known to the A/E site people, since they are not indicated in the A/E Site Procedure Manuals.

3. Contractor superintendents were interviewe'd and generally could not present problems relating to the Construction Engineering activity.
4. The performance of safety-related calculations on site could become a problem. Not many calculations (only two or three) were performed, and they were generally completed per requirements, except that design inputs were vague. A recent procedure for documenting design input criteria-was not well known to the Mechanical Site Lead Engineer and his team. This procedure should be made clear to the people in the event that more safety-related calculations are done on site.

II. Scope of Evaluation The evaluation involved three members of the team whose inspections,

' observations, and interviews were divided in three areas: namely, Site-controlled indoor storage, Site-controlled. outdoor storage, and field (contractor) warehousing under Site authority and .

directing, including materials and equipment already in place. A survey of documentation practices, storage , maintenance, and

, warehousing practices in general was made. Input from other team members associated with contractors' operations was also included.

The evaluation required 100 manhours. .

I III. Conclusion There appeared to be a generally satisfactory written program which had been developed for handling materials and equipment from receipt l to process completion. The program for storage maintenance requirement s l

as outlined in the Storage Maintenance Requirements (SMR), provides j the Project Organization with a precise set of. guidelines for the preservation of the quality of each item. There were some problems in the implementation of the program which should be improved. There were also some isolated weaknesses also noted in the contractors' storage practices. -

Finding Project personnel responsible for Material and (CC.3-1) Equipment Maintenance and Inspection report noncon-forming conditions for major problems, using the

.Nonconformance Reports (NR's) per Procedure 7-1302; but do not use the Nonconformance Report for minor discrepancies related to periodic maintenance requirements. Instead, they use an informal notification method not addressed by approved procedures or instructions.

Corrective After evaluation it was concluded that the basic Action problems associated with the Maintenance Program (CC.3-1) (as implemented) consist of the following:

1. Failure of the program tc specify responsi-bilities for needed SMR revisions, when such necessary changes are attributed *to changing environmental conditions or installation progress.
2. Failure to specifically delineate actions required by Maintenance personnel when a routine maintenance frequency has been missed.

Both of the above deficiencies have been addressed by Action Requests issued by Nuclear Quality Assur-ance Department. All conditions identified needed correction but were not specifically nonconforming based on the evaluation.

Corrective Warehouse personnel are performing an inventory Action of all items in storage to ensure accurate storage (CC.3-2) location records and correct discrepancies. Action will be completed by December 31, 1982, under direc-tion of the Assistant Warehouse Superintendent.

The Warehouse Composite Crew has been directed to i

inform the Assistant Warehouse Superintendent when-ever items are not stored in the intended location or are moved to a different location. Procurement Quality Unit will perform a monthly surveillance to sample items in storage per a checklist to be developed by the Supervisor, Procurement Quality Unit by December 15, 1982.

An area is being established by the Assistant Warehouse Superintendent to segregate material awaiting receipt inspection. All incoming mater-ial, size permitting, will be stored in this area.

After inspection, satisfactory items will be moved to their identified storage locations and noncon-forming items will be documented on Nonconformance Reports, tagged, and stored in a segregated area when possible. The segregated area will be estab-lished by December 15, 1982.

Finding Equipment stored in the Warehouse may not always l (CC.3-3) receive the required maintenance. Files of storage maintenance requirement records are not well organized to ensure that all warehouse in storage equipment is properly maintained and in a timely fashion. There were indications that SMR's were not maintained to agree with their current storage levels.

Program Revision Notices are being issued to address the necessary changes in exist-ing procedures and instructions. All actions are scheduled for completion by January 31, 1983, under overall direction of the Assistant Warehouse Superintendent.

The program developed includes revision to Instruc-tion 53-1302 to describe use of the Maintenance Job Tickets an inventory of all equipment in the Warehouse to identify items without Storage Main-tenance Requirements (SMR) forms; monthly sur-veillance of SMRs in the Warehouse by- Nuclear Quality Assurance Department; revision of Pro-cedure 5-0802 to address credit tickets and material returned from Contractors; a review of Procedure 3-1301 to identify possible improve-ment in. updating and maintaining SMRs; and improv-ing the SMR filing and tickler system.

Finding Review of the contractors' material control (CC.3-4) operations revealed situations inconsistent with procedures. Lack of controlled access to storage areas containing safety-related material, trace-ability and housekeeping appeared to be the major problems. The survey, however, also revealed. good storage practice by some contractors.

1. A spot check of maintenance records on equipment showed that, in general, proper maintenance was being performed.

However, several instances were noted where records were not attached to equipment, and several pieces of equipment had missed a yearly maintenance.

2. A review of the master SMR file indicated that there was no method of initiating maintenance in a timely fashion. The maintenance coordinator indicated that he is in the process of instituting a tickler file to help him in getting maintenance done. This is a manual method, as opposed to a computerized maintenance file used by plant operations for in place equipment main-tenance.
3. Storage Maintenance Requirement records (SMR) for several in storage sump pumps inspected were found to be missing from the master file. There were no main-tenance records available. The maintenance coordinator said that he was correcting this. These pumps were not safety-related and did not require Nonconformance

, Reports to be written. However, he could not be sure how bad this situation is and is in the process of reviewing this.

4. Inspection of the maintenance coordinator's list of items under his ~ surveillance revealed equipment without ,

an MR, but having an SMR. It was explained that this equipment belonged to a contractor, but was under Site maintenance. There.was no definite procedure which could be located to explain the handling of this situation. Inspection of the equipment revealed that nonsafety sluice gates were-involved. The attached SMR indicated that this equipment required- UI (Unheated l Inside) storage. It was stored outdoors under a tarp.

No DR or NR was located covering this nonconformance.

problem. In addition, the I&C Contractor has been instructed to establish a training session for all personnel involved with hilti bolt installation.

This training session will be monitored and docu-mented by the Civil / Structural Unit of Construction Quality Section (CQS). This training will be done by October 29, 1982.

In addition to the above actions, the Supervisor of the Civil / Structural Unit of CQS (a Level III civil inspector as well as a lead auditor) will lead an in-process audit of "all" contractor's presently installed hilti bolts. The results of these audits will determine if this finding is '

. generic in nature or simply an isolated case.

The I&C Contractor has'been~ instructed to provide a map of all hilti bolt installations in the area where the obse'rvation for this finding occurred.

This map will be analyzed to identify any abandoned bolt holes which fall within the stress cone area

_ _ _ _ of installed hilti bolts. Any abandoned holes that fall within the stress cone area will be sample inspected in accordance with Mil Standard 105.D to establish the structural integrity of abandoned bolt holes.

IV. Areas of weakness and corrective action: Good Practices Corrective' The current procedure for brazing of flex conduit Action provides for training of personnel performing this (CC.4-2) activity. The Electrical contractor will reviso this procedure to include qualification of brazing personnel. It should be recognized that this opera-tion does not affect the safety function of the system nor does the brazing technique lend itself to normal qualification procedures.

A random 20% sample of in-process brazed ends was performed by the contractor's inspection personnel and found acceptabic. The results of this inspec-tion were documented on the contractor's Form No. 131. No,further prior work inspections are planned in view of these results and the fact that the brazing of the conduit was being done merely to facilitate the next construction step of installing the conduit fitting.

Nuclear Construction Engineering and Construction Quality Sections will review revisions to the above procedure and verify that work is performed per procedures.

Installation of expansion anchor bolts to relocate a conduit bracket in R3 #1, 620'-0" elevation at the 195*

interval was performed according to the contractor's procedure and was inspected by the Contractor's QC Inspector.

5. During expansion anchor bolt installationb 'y the Electrical Contractor, it was observed,that Contractor QC Inspectors did not follow good documentation practices. The Contractor's QC Inspectors took notes of observations, then went back to the office to fill out the Quality Documentation and Acceptance Report. This may be a source of error in the' documentation of the operation, especially when several inspections are completed before data is recorded on the quality record.

CONCERN - AN ACTION REQUEST WAS ISSUED BY THE PROJECT FOR RESPONSE AND FOLLOW-UP.

6. In general the Project Organization's flush unit of NTS displayed an excellent knowledge of the process and the details of the procedures. However, two areas of concern were noted during the observation of the flushing of a nonsafety system:
a. The operator displayed carelessness in handling the " pillowcase" which is used to evaluate the quality of the flushed water. The pillowcase was removed from the plastic container and laid on a packing crate in the work area. This activity subjected the pillowcase to area cont' amination.

The collected particulates are used to evaluate the cleanliness of the line. This breach of good practice might cause false indications which could require further unnecessary flushing.

b. Procedures were ignored during the f!"sh which may have altered the results. The procedure required a three-pump operation during an observation; only two pumps were operating. The Test System Engineer in charge authorized this procedural change while flush was in progress. This change in procedure was not documented but later was accepted by a high level review.

IV,. Areas of weakness and corrective actiont Good Practices Finding The Major Piping and Electrical Contractors and (CC.5-1) NDE procedures for liquid penetrant examination do not specify the maximum drying time between

' penetrant removal and developer application as required by the ASME Code,Section V, Article 6.

In the Major Piping Contractors case, it was

_ __ observed that an NDE inspector performing.a liquid penetrant examination in the contractor's fabrication shop on site did not adhere to a maximum time between penetrant removal and developer application.

Corrective The major piping Contractor was issued an Observa-Action tion Action Request on October 13, 1982, stating (CC.5-1) that removal and application of the developer had not been addressed procedurally. This finding can be closed upon receipt of an acceptable procedure

- revision from the Contractor. (This requirement was established during procedure qualification.)

A follow-up audit will be performed 30 days after the procedure revision.

Identification of past deficiencies is not appli-cable. The material manufacturer recommends a drying time of 5 to 30 minutes. Past monitoring by the-Construction Quality Section (CQS) revealed no problems with excessive drying. CQS will con-tinue to include this area in their daily sur-veillance inspection activities.

The Major Electrical Contractor's liquid penetrant procedure will be revised not later than Novem-ber 30, 1982, to specify maximum drying time be-tween penetrant removal and developer application.

l .

A Project Action Request has been issued to ensure l

this action item is tracked to completion.

No action to identify past deficiencies is re-quired because this Contractor has not performed any P.7. on site.

SUMMARY

Construction Project Perry Plant Performance Area Construction Quality Inspections Objective No. CC-5 Sheet 3 of 3 Evaluator (s) B. H. Grier IV. Areas of weakness and corrective action; Good Practices The Major Electrical Contractor's NDE Practice Qualification procedure will be revised not later than November 30, 1982, to include the SNT-TC-1A requirements that a test piece with known indica-tions be utilized and that examinees be required to identify 90% of those indications during par-ticle examination. A Project Action Request will be issued by CQS to ensure this item is tracked to resolution.

All Major Electrical Contractor personnel holding P.7. certifications will be retested to the re-vised procedure. No action to identify past pro-cedures is required because this Contractor has not performed any P.7. on site.

Finding The project procedure for the Review of Con-(CC.5-3) tractor Procedures (2-0504), which is applicable to the Construction Quality Section (CQS), does not specify the qualification requirements for the individual who reviews and approves contractor procedures. CQS is assigned the prime responsi-bility for review of NDE procedures. (While it may be inferred that this finding contributed to CC.5-1 and CC.5-2, that fact was not established.)

I Corrective Current procedures are being revised and combined Action into a new Project Administration Procedure which (CC.5-3) will requira reviewers to be certified in accor-dance with ANSI N45.2.6 (1972). The General Supervisor, Construction Quality Section (CQS) will assure the revised procedure is forwarded l

to the Procedures and Records Unit by November 15, i

1982, for processing, training and issuance.

The Unit Supervisor, CQS Program and Records Unit, will ensure a review of all active NDE procedures by November 15, 1982, to determine if the original reviews were performed by qualified reviewers.

Any procedure found not to have been reviewed by a person qualified in accordance with ANSI N45.2.6 and/or ASNT-7C-1A will be re-reviewed by a quali-fied reviewer.

B. Evidence of Scope not Associated with Specific Findings

1. An extensive assessment of the NR System was conducted early in 1982 as a part of the QA Program Evaluation.

The Task Force conducting the assessment made a number of recommendations for improving the NR System. Action on these recommendations has been carried out over the past several months.

2. A detailed training program on the NR system was developed for all involved Project personnel. This training program has been completed.
3. The Project procedures for nonconformance control (PAP 1502) was revised and issued effective September 15, 1982. Changes were made in the procedure to respond to recommendations of the 101 Assessment Task Force. The revised procedure clearly defines respon-sibilities and establishes time periods within which action must be taken in processing trend analyses.

Areas of weakness and corrective action; Good Practices Finding The Instrumentation and Control contractor had no (CC.7-1) routine program for calibrating welding machines.

Corrective The Instrumentation and Control (I&C) Contractor Action will revise their Measuring and Test Equipment (CC.7-1) Procedure, and the Project will review QAS-1006,

" Welding Procedure and Performance Qualification" by November 30, 1982. CQS generated a Project Organization Action Request to ensure that the actions are effectively implemented with appro-priate follow-up.

. The I&C Contractor Quality Control inspects 100%

of all safety-related welds, and the Project Con-struction Quality Section (CQS) inspects approxi-mately 10% of all welds inspected by the I&C Con-tractor. Based on successful results'in these inspections, there currently is no reason to suspect the acceptability of any previous welds.

Therefore, no re-inspection prograss is proposed.

Corrective The primary responsibility related to safety and Action fire protection for all site contracts lies with the (PS.1-1) Contractors. The site reviews of their activities and the performance record of the project indicates

- the Contractors are effectively meeting their responsibilities.

The Project Organization responsibility is to pro-vide an overview and coordination with the Contrac-tors' programs. The following are the plans of the Project Organization to maintain its effective overview function. .

A new Project Fire Chief has recently been appointed in the Fire Protection Unit. Based on this recent transition, a new person will be provided to assume the Chief's former responsibilities.

While the number of violations observed were low for a project this size, improvement can be made in a number of areas. Each contractor has the prime r.e,sponsibility' for safety in their work areas.

Corrective Existing contract clauses and day-to-day communica-Action tions will continue to emphasize that the first-(Ps.1-2) line responsibility for safety rests with con-tractors. A designated safety representative is

- provided by all major contractors to assure that safety programs are enforced.

The Project 0 ganization Safety Unit is continually striving for improvements in the Contractor's safety progrcms. The Safety Unit provides an over-view of contractor programs with identified problems being reported to the contractors v.ia the Contractor Administration using " Notice of Safety Violations"

SUMMARY

Construction Project Perry Plant Performance Area Proiect Control Objective No. PS-3 Evaluator (s) H. R. Porter IV' . Areas of weakness and corrective action: Good Practices ,

~

Finding Complete and comprehensive system scheduling (PS.3-1) information is not yet available to all project personnel. In certain instances, full and effective use of what is available is not being realized due to continuing use of interim schedules and some that have been personalized.

~~ Lack of firm and clear communication of the system scheduling plan and its intended and mandatory use has been noted in some contacts.

Corrective The existing distribution of the Project Schedule Action or portions thereof is based on established (PS.3-1) matrices. These existing matrices will be' reviewed by the responsible Section's General Supervisor to assure adequate dissemination of schedule infor-mation in their respective areas. T, hey will initiate any required changes by December 1, 1982.

See response to Finding PS.2-1 for address of the necessary indoctrination and training for effected personnel on utilization and understanding of schedule information.

Finding The following good practice was noted:

(PS.3-2)

An " Operational Review Program" has been instituted by the Owner to review the administration of all Construction Contracts. These reviews cover the areas of Contract Administration, Purchasing and Accounts Payable related to the specific contracts.

The frequency of the reviews is related to the size of the contract.

A. Details in Support of Finding PS.3-1 In discussions with planning and scheduling personnel, the intent to use Level IV schedules as a working-management tool was stated. This was verified by other project managers that indicated their support. In interviews with some supervisors and their subordinate personnel, a range of schedule types were found to be in use, including Level IV's. Additionally, comments were expressed by some j individuals that indicated they were not fully aware of the Level IV schedules being used in part and the intent to use them exclusively when they are completed, and

others thought of them as a punch list. Communication
of the details of the Level IV schedules and the intent for their use appears to be lacking.'

B. Details in Support of Good Practice Finding PS.3-2 A review was made of the construction contract audits per-formed by the Project and it was found that an " Operational Review Program" has been established. All construction con-tracts are reviewed in the areas of Contract Administration, l .,

Purchasing and Accounts Payable on the following basis:

1. All contracts at least once (while active).
2. Contracts over $20,000,000 are performed on an annual basis.
3. Any contract per special management request.
4. Upon special request of a Buyer or Contract Administrator, a review is done 3 months prior to completion of a contract.

PERFORMANCE EVALUATION

SUMMARY

Construction Project Perry Plant Performance Area Project Procurement Process Objective No. PS-4 Evaluator (s) R. Demchak IV. Areas of weakness and corrective action; Good Practices Finding No management controls exist and no written (PS.4-1) criteria exist to categorize a Perry Construction Work Authorization (PCWA) as per the following:

a. QA Urgent
b. Schedule Urgent (i.e. Work Before Price)
c. Price Before Work
d. No Cost / Transmittal Of special concern are the definitions of Schedule Urgent and Price Before Work, as they impact cost control.

Corrective Procedure 3-0350 will be revised to provide defini-Action tions and criteria for QA Urgent, Schedule Urgent, (PS.4-1) Price Before Work and No Cost / Transmittal. This revision will be mutually prepared by Nuclear Con-struction Engineering and the Construction Buying Sections under the responsibility of the General Supervising Engineer, Nuclear Construction Engi-neering Section. The target date for completing this revision is February 1, 1983.

No backfit considerations are applicable.

Finding There is no automatic follow-up procedure to (PS.4-2) remind a contractor when his response to a Perry Construction Work Authorization (PCWA) is overdue.

- Timely follow-up of contract changes is consistent with good contract cost control.

l Corrective A modification to the present computer program is Action in progress to provide a printout of overdue PCWA's (PS.4-2) by specification number. The General Supervisor

' of the Construction Buying Section will take the necessary steps to initiate action within the l

Buying Section for expediting contractor response I to PCWA's. The revised expediting practices will be in place by January 31, 1983.

i (a) Details In Support of Finding PS.4-1:

The Perry. Construction Work Authorization (PCWA) is the form used to transmit to the contractor changes and specific change documents affecting the existing construction con-tract. The PCWA is initiated by the Nuclear Engineering Department (NED) who categorize the PCWA as QA Urgent, Schedule Urgent (i.e. , work before price), Price Before Work, or No Cost Transmittal. No criteria for making this categorization are included in the applicable procedures.

Three construction buyers and two responsible engineers interviewed were not aware of such criteria being documented anywhere.

(b) Details In Support of Finding PS.4-2: .

When new PCWA's are received in Purchasing, they are recorded, '

logged into* tie computer, assigned a bid due date and mailed to the contractor. The bid due dates are defined as follows:

30 days - Price Before Work PCWA's 7 days - Work Before Price PCWA's j

A review of overdue PCWA's with the Purchasing General Supervisor has revealed:

4 (1) The general supervisor confirms that no automatic

. system exists reminding contractors that their PCWA response is overdue.

'(2) Currently, a monthly computer printout indicates to the Buyer when a PCWA response is late.

(3) The general supervisor has previously recognized the need for an automatic reminder system and that future development of the PCWA control program should include that feature.

Demchak IV., Areas of weakness and corrective action; Good Practices FINDING Contract Administration is not verifying time (PS.5-1) sheets for work performed in the Control Room on SP-33/34 in a complete manner consistent with Contract Administration guidelines. They are, however, approving and signing the time sheets, thereby delegating the responsibility that they are correct, factual and represent the actual work done to the System Test Engineer. This delegation of responsibility is not documented in any manner.

Corrective Contract Administration Procedure 5-0701 will be Action revised to reflect the Nuclear Test Section Control Room System Test Engineer's responsibility for directing the Contractor and verifying manhours expended on that work.

A. Details in Support of Finding PS.5-1:

1. The activity in the Control Room appears to have developed into a special case regarding administration of the work. The System Test Engineer seems to be assuming some of Contract Administration's responsi-bilities by directing the contractor and by verifying the work done, without the proper authority.
2. In an interview with a lead contract administrator, daily time sheets from the electrical contractor who is working in the Control Room on SP-33/34 were reviewed.
3. In this area of work only (Control Room), the Lead Contract Administrator (LCA) does not perform a normal review of the time sheets, but casually observes if anything on that time sheet appears unusual (i.e.,

extremely excessive hours, description of work out of contractor's responsibilities). If no highly unusual entry exists, he signs the time sheets.

B. Evidence of Scope Not Associated with Specific Findings:

1. A Contract Administration log book was reviewed (SP-33/34) and it was observed that some of the entries did not appear to conrorm with criteria established in Procedure S1-0503. Specifically, the entries observed did not address the areas of work, the contractor progress, the number of men working and what equipment and material may have been used. The Correspondence Log Sheet appeared to have some deficiencies in the recording of dates. CONCERN - AN ACTION REQUEST WAS ISSUED BY THE PROJECT FOR RESPONSE AND FOLLOW-UP.

IV. Areas of weakness and corrective action: Good Practices Finding The existing document management and control (PS.6-1) system does not appear to have the capacity to meet the volume of work expected prior to the scheduled fuel load of November, 1983.

Corrective The Project has recognized the large volume of Action documents that must be put into the System in the (PS.6-1) time indicated. A response to this need is already underway. Development of sufficient document l management and control capacity to meet the volume of work will be accomplished by:

a. A Special Project Plan is being developed to better organize and prioritize required record identification, review and turn-over. The plan will be developed by the Records Management Unit by November 15, 1982.
b. Additional staff, including consultants, are being added to the Records Management Unit with planned additions to be in place by November 15, 1982.
c. Controls to monitor the quantities and to qualify the records are being refined.

Improved record tracking controls will be developed by the Administrative and Special Projects Supervisor by Novem-ber 15, 1982.

2. Provide factual information that succorts the Performance Evaluation Summary Details in Support of Finding PS.6-1 a) Interviews were conducted with the Records Management Super-

. visor, the Records Control Supervisor, the Construction Analyst in charge of the Quality Records Vault (QRV), the Program and Records Supervisor, the Senior Staff Engineer responsible for Enginsering Records and the AE As-Built Drawing Coordinator. These discussions indicated the pro-ject is in the process of expanding their document manage-ment system which will be needed shortly based on the following observations:

, 1) An accepted industry standard for the total quantity of records expected for a single unit and common is 25,000,000 documents. Presently, 2,000,000 documents have been received by the Project. 1,000;000 have been reviewed and processed and 1,000,000 awaiting review.

2) The ANSI Standard that must be met for, licensing is N45.2.9, paragraph 6.2. This paragraph addresses

" Accessibility" and states: " Storage systems shall provide for the accurate retrieval of information without undue delay".

3) The svaluation recognizes that not all 25,000,000 docoments wil; be necessary to meet licensing criteria, however, two basic facts remain:
1) Which records and how many records will be required for licensing is as of yet unidentified.

i l ii) All records will have to be addressed and indexed l in some manner to comply with the redrievability

' criteria or to be available for future processing.

4) The first step towards meeting the records criteria is collection. Presently, the QRV, the collection point of document packages, is not procedurally included in the transfer plan,s of document packages from the contractors. Also, some contracts / specifications indicate that the turnover of documents should occur at contract completion rather than in a more timely fashion to support system turnover and testing.

2. Provide factual information that succorts the Performance Evaluation Summary
5) Although the QRV is the collection point for all document packages, their physical space limitation is about their present capacity which is 1,000,000 documents and their capability for performing the clerical review has been estimated at 200,000 documents / month. In September, 1982, the QRV processed 70,000 documents.
6) The quality and technical review is the next process toward document acceptance and the volume of records anticipated should severely test the reviewing elements.

The present capability of "as-built" drawing reviews has evidenced that of approximately 20,000 drawings submitted, only about 3,000 are approved. It is estimated that a total of 100,000 contractor drawings and 10,000 Nuclear Test Section drawings would have to be processed by Unit #1 fuel load. When the AE as-built drawing coordinator was asked as to how he would accomplish this volume of work. he said he didn't know. Further, a new Project Administration Procedure, 1705, requires that non-quality related cons'truction packages will be reviewed by the responsible engineers. These packages will be collected and stored by the Quality Assurance Group until the engineering review is completed.

7) Finally, the processing of document packages by the Records Control must be done. The present capacity of the Records Control element for microfilming and index-ing is 140,000 documents / month. At a level of 200,000 documents / month, additional processing equipment would be necessary.

Project Management has recognized the need to streng.then the document management program as evidenced by the recent creation of a Record Management Unit, by some organizational changes and procedural reviews within the document review areas, and by

agreeing to utilize a consultant experienced in record management.

These steps appear to be in a positive direction as the scheduled fuel load date of November 1983 will impose significant additional pressures upon the existing document management system.

Safety and housekeeping are covered in weekly " tailgate" safety meetings which may not have a written agenda: The trainer trains lower tier supervisors who in turn are supposed to train about 500 craft personnel in addition to the one-hour video tape. He is unsure whether his supervision training reaches the craft level. Subsequent training is on an irregular basis and may not include formal instruction.

Site QA and NRC findings are not transmitted to the trainer so that he can create training to inform the workers.

B. Details in Support of Finding (TN.3-2):

(1) The electrical contractor has a written corporate procedure which allows only clerical, drafting and conduit detailers to be site hired. Conduit detailer employment record is phone checked back to the previous job. All QC/QA personnel are hired out of the main office and employment and education confirmation is made there.

(2) The major piping contractor has no written corporate or site procedures on verification of education or employ-ment for QC/QA. Verification might be made by telephone but not consistently.

(3) The instrumentation and control installation contractor has a written' corporate procedure that requires QC/QA site hires to have the last employer contacted and

, college degrees verified for senior designers; the last employer must be checked, but not necessarily the educational record. Checking tor junior designers is erratic.

ObjecggggNg.;QP-2 Evaluator (s) R. Schuerger, B. Grier, C. Daft IV. Areas of weakness and corrective action; Good Practices Finding The Electrical Contractor does not meet their cur-(QP.2-1) rent commitment for Site QA staffing. Also, the absence of an on-site QA Manager seems to detract from the effectiveness of their QA Program.

Corrective The Project Organization and the Electrical Con-Action tractor have agreed that increased emphasis is (QP.2-1) needed in addressing Quality Assurance problems.

Construction Quality Section has monitored and will continue to monitor the performance of QA functions and their effectiveness through audits. These audits are scheduled on a monthly basis.

Currently the Electrical Contractor has one Quality Engineer on site performing QA functions. A second Quality Engineer has been hired and is com-mitted to report to the site on November 15, 1992.

The Contractor's QA function is managed and directed from Corporate Headquarters. The Owner will con-tinue to assess that the increased, staffing is adequate based on the above organizational arrange-ment.

Finding The Electrical Contractor's purchase order for (QP.2-2) supplier's materials (cable tray, fittings, etc.)

did not impose QA program requirements on the supplier.

Corrective This finding was previo'usly identified by Project Action Organization as a result of an audit by NCAD in (QP.2-2) May of 1982. Subsequently the Electrical Contractor has conducted and documented training classes on their QA/QC Procedure 4.4.1 " Procurement Document Review."

The Electrical Contractor's QC and Engineering have completed a review of all past Purchase Orders to assure that proper QA requirements were imposed

, on vendors via the procurement documents. This review has been completed with some concerns regarding lack of documentation. The Electrical Contractor has committed to resolve these concerns by December 15, 1982.

Performance Area Program Implementation Objective No. QP-2 Evaluator (s) R. Schuerger, B. Grier, C. Daft IV. Areas of weakness and corrective action: Good Practices An AR has been issued as a result of the afore-mentioned audit. Due to the extensiveness of the review and corrective action, this AR remains open; however, the Electrical Contractor continues to work toward completion. The Owner's Construction Quality Section will verify the effectiveness of corrective and preventative actions at the time of close-out.

Finding The Project Internal Audit function is not always (QP.2-3) effective in achieving corrective action.

Corrective Further definition of an " Action Request" versus a Action " Concern" will be developed and included in revi-(QP.2-3) sions to procedures 1602, " Corrective Action,",and 1-1806, " Audits." A review of all Project Internal Audit reports from 1980 to the present will be per-formed to identify all concerns, and follow-up on all concerns will be accomplished on future audits to insure close-out of each concern. All future concerns identified will require responses, follow-up and close-out by Nuclear Quality Assur-ance Department. To assure consistent use of concerns and Action Requests by all auditors, the Audit Coordinator, Training / Administration Section will provide a review of all Project Internal Audit reports for consistency in identification of deficiencies. These actions will be implemented by December 1, 1982 under direction of the Audit Coordinator, Training / Administration Section.

2. Provide factual information that supports the Performance Evaluation i Summary l A. Details in Support of Finding QP.2-1 At the exit meeting for Contractor Audit #722 on October 6, 1982, it was observed that there was no Electrical Contractor QA manager present. Discussions with the Manager, NQAD; the Supervisor, Construction Quality Auditing; and General Supervisor, Construction Quality Section indicated the Contractor does not have a site QA manager assigned, and that the regional QA manager position is not filled. The corporate QA manager, who has been overseeing this function, was not at the exit meeting. There is a QC supervisor on Site. The QA function appears to be attended to by a single quality engineer. Contractor has committed to assign a second QE but has not yet done so. ,

B. Details in Support of Finding QP.2-2 A review of the purchase order issued by the electrical contractor to the supplier.for conduit, tray, fittings, etc., did not impose QA program requirements on the Supplier.

This is contrary to the requirements of ANSI N45.2.13. This finding was previously identified during an audit by NQAD in May 1982, but corrective action has not yet been accomplished.

C. Details in Support of Finding QP.2-3 Audit reports are transmitted from a lead auditor or the audit coordinator to responsible General Supervising Engineers.

Findings are listed as Action Requests (AR's) or items of concern. AR's require response, but items of concern do not. The differentiation between AR's and items of concern is not clear. The overview of the findings is by the Audit Coordinator. For example, audit # PIA 82-12, Audit of Control of Contractor Procedures, identified one item of concern which should have been an AR. Procedure 2-0504 does not specify qualifications for the procedure reviewer as required by ANSI N45.2.6 and SNT-TC-1A. Action to resolve this item

- of concern was not apparent.

2. Provide factual information that succorts the Performance Evaluation Summary D. Details in Support of Finding QP.2-4:

In mid-1982 in response to a cuggestion by an NRC Inspector, the Project adopted a three-phase pipe hanger inspection program based on the program used at the Clinton Project.

The three phases are: 1) verification of pipe and anchor location prior to the initiation of hanger installation;

2) inspection after completion of installations; and 3) a recheck for clearances, damage, etc., after hydro and just prior to turnover. This three-phase approach is judged by the Project to be cost-effective; higher inspection costs are expected to be outweighed by lower rework and delay penalties.

E. Evidence of Scope Not Associated with Specific Findings:

  • Time limitations did not permit detailed investigation, but it is suggested that the relationship of the vendor inspec-tions and receiving inspections programs be reviewed by the Project to assure'that underlap does not exist. A receiving inspection was observed and the program was discussed with the Lead Inspector. CONCERN - AN ACTION REQUEST WAS INITIATED BY THE PROJECT FOR RESPONSE AND FOLLOW-UP.

Corrective The Nuclear Test Section General Supervisor will Action develop a document defining the functional respon-(TC.2-1) sibilities for the Section and personnel. Along with this, the lower tier organization will also be identified. This document will be made available to all Section personnel by November 15, 1982.

Similarly, a review will be made by all Project Organization Supervisors to assure that the same functional organization and personnel responsi-bility information is available to their personnel.

The Project effort will be completed by December 15, 1982. These steps are considered as an interim measure prior to completion of the Project Organi-zation plan to develop complete position descriptions for the organization by April 30, 1983. (See Cor-rective Action OA.3-1)

Finding The Nuclear Test Section (NTS) organization charts

Construction Project Perry Plant i

P0rformance Area System Turnover for Test Objective No. TC-4 Evaluator (s) W. Powell  ;

l IV. Areas of weakness and corrective action; Good Practices Finding The current Nuclear Test Section (NTS) to Perry (TC.4-1) Plant Department (PPD) turnover procedure is not consistent with FSAR, Chapter 14. This chapter of the FSAR addresses involvement of the Plant Operations Review Committee (PORC) in turnover. Current

'rocedures do not include any involvement of PORC in turnover.

Corrective An amendment to the FSAR has been submitted to Action delete PORC involvement in turnover. In place of (TC.4-1) PORC involvement the responsible General Supervisor will review and approve turnovers from Nuclear Test Section to Perry Plant Department. The Senior Licensing Engineer is responsible for assuring the change is included in the next FSAR amendment.

Amendment 10 to the FSAR is expected to be filed in November 1982. -

A. Details in Support of Finding TC.4-1

1. Chapter 14, Section 14.2.2.14, of the FSAR states the Plant Operations Review Committee (PORC) " responsibility incl'udes the review and recommendation for approval or rejection of safety-related systems to be turned over to the Perry Plant Department. . . " Section 14.2.2 of the FSAR also addresses PORC involvement in turnover.
2. Existing and proposed turnover procedures do not address PORC involvement in turnover.
3. In a discussion with the Senior Licensing Engineer, he stated the FSAR wording related to PORC came from Perry Plant Department. .
4. In an interview with the Perry Plant Department (PPD) person responsible for writing the turnover procedures, .

he stated he was not aware of the wording in the FSAR.

He said a current revision of the Nuclear Test Section (NTS) to Perry Plant Department (PPD) turnover procedure was in review. He stated the draft procedures do not address PORC. He agreed'there was a discrepancy between the FSAR and the procedures for turnover. He later stated he had put discussion of this discrepancy on the agenda for the next PORC meeting.

B. Evidence of Scope Not Associated with Specific Findings Procedures, FSAR requirements and turnover documentation were reviewed. Supervisory personnel in the Nuclear Construction, Nuclear Quality Assurance and Perry Plant Departments were interviewed. Observations of two walkdowns of safety-related systems by System Test Engineers were conducted. Two areas of concern were identified.

1. There were no significant problems observed on one system walkdown. The other system walkdown resulted in the following concerns:

Engineer without field verification of completion of the corrective action. He relied on a noncon-

.formance tracking report which was inaccurate.  ;

Nonconformance Hold Tags remained on items long after the Nonconformance Report was closed out.

Two had been closed out for over two years. The

, System Test Engineer was aware of this but did not take action to notify the appropriate quality control element to remove the Hold Tags.

I j -

A review of five Nonconformance Reports on system i

components indicated one nonconformance Hold Tag was placed on the wrong component.

It appears System Test Engineers should put more emphasis i on tracking and closeout of nonconformances within i their system. Evidence was inconclusive to formulate a finding based on only two safety-related system walkdowns with insufficient details to determine generic problems. <

CONCERN - AN ACTION REQUEST WAS INITIATED BY THE PROJECT FOR RESPONSE AND FOLLOW-UP.

2. Development of adequate procedures for turnover of systems and components from Nuclear Test Section to Perry Plant Department are required to support start-up testing in a timely manner.

4

In discussions with the Turnover Lead Engineer, Nuclear Test Section and General Supervising Engineer, Program Quality section, they stated procedures for safety-
related turnovers from NTS to PPD are not adequate due to lack of clear procedure and documentation requirements.

The General Supervising Engineer, Program Quality Section stated a new procedure is currently under review. He stated that after the new procedure was in place, safety-related turnovers from NTS to PPD would be evaluated on

. an individual basis. Turnover would depend on procedures PPD had in place to maintain and operate the system or equipment being turned over. Since safety-related turn-over procedures are not required at this time, there is no evidence for a finding. CONCERN - AN ACTION REQUEST WAS INITIATED BY THE PROJECT FOR RESPONSE AND FOLLOW-UP.

1. Practically no data is recorded. A determination of chloride in demineralized water was run and the result was inconsistent with previous data. The technician was unable to check where the problem was since he

, had not recorded data. Review of previous analyses also failed to produce data other than the final answer.

2. The pipette used for sampling was allowed to lay on the table and it was rinsed by reverse flow directly from the reagent water supply bottle. This is not good lab practice and could cause cross contamination.
3. Two standard solutions were used in the dne analysis.

There was no record of the credibility of these solu-tions.

4. The standard solutions used were well outside the range of the material being analyzed. The water was below 0.05 ppm, while the standards were 10 ppm and 100 ppm.
5. A great dependence was placed on laboratory instrument manufacturer procedures, which were at times extended beyond the intent for which they were written.

C. Evidence of Scope not Associated with Specific Findings

, A review was conducted on the various t'ypes of test pro-

! cedures (generic and initial) as to clarity, source docu-ments, and technical content. An observation was made on the utilization of a generic test procedure to a safety-related 125-V de cubicle. The test procedure policy for safety vs. nonsafety equipment was reviewed and discussed ~

with various Lead Test Engineers. All the above investiga-tion revealed no apparent problems.

It was noted that Perry Plant Department and Nuclear Test Section personnel work closely together on the development of initial calibration procedures and have apparently established good lines of communications and cooperation.

In one instance, a calibration procedure that would

normally be done by NTS personnel was being developed by PPD personnel, since they were more familiar with the l devices.

IV. Areas of weakness and corrective action; Good Practices 7nal Finding The present method of tracking the jurisdic (TC.6-1) status of systems needs to be improved. Separate tracking records now being maintained by dif-ferent organizations lead to. confusion. The current published status report does not adequately address component turnovers or turn-backs. Quality Assurance is planning to install a centralized computer tracking system. This system, if implemented in a timely manner and -

properly maintained, should resolve this weakness.

Corrective Nuclear Test Section is implementing a centralized Action Computer System Status Tracking Program. The (TC.6-1) stated program will be written and completed approximately December 1, 1982. Two additional months to backfit all records to date will be

required. By February 1, 1983, the system will be completely functional. The Nuclear Test Section Turnover Lead Engineer is responsible for implementation.

I Finding Jurisdictional tagging procedures are not being (TC.6-2) followed in the control room. Unauthorized juris-dictional tagging methods are currently being -

used for control room benchboard switches within the jurisdiction of Perry Plant Department..

Corrective A Program Revision Notice (PRN) has been initiated Action to PA-1104 " Project Safety, Jurisdictional, and (TC.6-2) Special Purpose Tagging" which clarifies and resolves the situation regarding tags and labels.

The PRN will be effective by December 1, 1982.

, OBSERVATION #1 0F CHEMICAL LAB OPERATIONS i

1 I. SCOPE  ;

Conducted a review of chemical laboratory operations in conjunction with I its role in assuring the proper quality of flush water.

II. OBSERVATIONS A. Supervisor informed me of the organizational status of his seven laboratory technicians and their quslifications.

B. A temporary lab was in use until the permanent facilities are available.

Technicians did comment on the cramped quarters.

C. Domineralized water was being analyzed for chloride content. A specific ion electrode coupled to a computerized voltmeter with digital readout was being used. The technician was relatively new and referred to the instrument manufacturer's manual frequently.

The method involved the use of two standards to tell the relationship and it then computes the chloride 'ontent c of the sample.

D. The technician used 10 and 100 ppe,CL as standards, although he was measuring water in the 0-20 ppb range. It was later pointed out that the instrument was linear in the 10-100 ppm range and, therefore, that is why it was used. The technician did not know how the standards were prepared or if they were certified by a secondary method.

E. After the analysis, the value produced (0.57 ppm) seemed out of line with what would be expected. I asked the technician to check his data to see how that compared with previous data. I was informed that no data is recorded except the final answer which is read from the instrument. A rerun produced a reasonable result.

F. The operator rinsed the pipette by inserting the tip into the delivery tube of the reagent water supply; he also Isid the pipette on the lab

  • table amidst a variety of solutions and equipment; each of these could lead to cross-contamination and a subsequent incorrect result.

G. The Instrument Manual did not specify the lower sensitivity of the method they were using, but a senior technician who set up the

. procedure assured me that the data was available justifying use of the procedure at that low level'. .

~ OBSERVATION OF ^

OBSERVATION #2 ,

OF CHEMICAL LAB OPERATIONS 1,

I. SCOPE This is the second review of this type. It included a more seasoned technician and different analysis.

II. OBSERVATIONS A. Raw, coagulated, and filtered water were analyzed for pH, conductivity, turbidity and free chlorine.

B. The instruments used were all essentially of the field type, portable nature with direct readout. All had been calibrated and properly tagged.

C. The technician measured pH using the Owner's manual as reference and followed those procedures religiously. She had a problem with one sample getting a stable reading as the method required. I asked her why she didn't take another portion of the same sample as most pH procedures require. She said the procedure did not require taking another sample increment.

D. No individual data was taken. As noted in my first observation, only the final answer was listed on a report sheet. No individual j data books are kept.

E. Interviewed the first and second line supervision and indicated my concerns. They admitted that the one method observed did not have proper background data for credibility. They are now in the process of developing this credibility. They also feel that once they move into their permanent quarters where more room and equipment are available, most of the concerns would be taken care of. They felt that the Owner's methods manual did conform with ASTM and EPA methods; however, when we looked up the pH method in ASTM and EPA manuals, some points of variation were pointed out.

4 III. CONCLUSIONS i

This second observation of Chemical Lab Operations verified the conclusions obtained previously. While most of these concerns are now being studied.

they seem to be' of a generic nature.

, OBSERVATION OF - i CONTROL ROOM INSTRUMENT CALIBRATION I. SCOPE Observed two Perry Plant Department technicians calibrating Channel D of a Source Range Monitor in the Unit 1 Control Room per an unofficial ICI calibration procedure that had been developed working with Channel A.

II. OBSERVATIONS A. Technicians ~ observed were from the Technical Section of the Perry Plant Department. They were working on the development of the ICI procedure (Perry Plant Procedure) since they had received substantial training in the device and were familiar with it.

B. A draft calibration document (OM8:ICI-C51-1, Rev. 0) was being used for calibration. This draft document had been developed from reference document GEK 73635, Source Range Monitor, 368x101BBG1,64, in conjunction with application to Channel A.

C. Several handwritten notes on OM-8 document indicated that GEK tolerances could not be met. These discrepancies were forwarded to the Control Room Coordinator to get resolution from the NSSS supplier.

D. The NTS ICP procedure was not available. Normally, the ICI procedure is developed from the ICP NTS procedure. However, due to PPD personnel '

familiarity with the device, the procedure would be reversed for this device.

E. Technician stated that the calibration procedure outlined in GEK would usually work, however, it may not be explicit enough and may not be the best and most efficient method to do calibration. By

. developing procedures in conjunction with working on the device, special precautions and pitfalls could be discovered and included in procedure (Ex. Test Point 4 - very sensitive to adjustment).

F. Calibration and functional checks were broken out separately because of testing periods.

G. Senior Plant Technician was knowledgeable regarding effects of EMI on instrumentation in Control Room. He did not know of any special

. precautions to be taken in Control Room to preclude use of radios or walkie-talkies.

OBSERVATION OF .

. CONTROL ROOM INSTRUMENT CALIBRATION Page 2 III. CONCLUSIONS A. Ih this instance, cooperation and communication between Perry Plant and NTS testing personnel resulted in the most experienced technician working on development of the required testing procedure.

B. (Good Practice) Developing the test procedure in conjunction with t.orking with the device results in an efficient test procedure and early identification of discrepancies with manufacturer's technical procedures.

OF COATING ACTIVITIES I. SCOPE

. Conducted a review of three different activities in the coating category; concrete preparation, concrete coating and a rework by the coatings contractor.

~ II. OBSERVATIONS A. Two workmen were removing loose concrete and miscellaneous material from the " broom" finished floor (Room 01, El. 631, #1 Reactor Building) using needle guns and chipping hammers (10/6/82). The contractor's inspector reviewed the job and okayed it for coating on 10/7/82.

B. Met the contractor's inspector (10/7/82) who had already directed the workmen to make an additional cleaning of the floor (sweeping and vacuuming). Prep t nditions appeared to meet requirements.

C. The coating (110AA) was brought to the job site. Its " Pot Life" was clearly marked on the container. A measured amount of coating was distributed over a specific area and two workmen troweled this amount over the surface, frequently " wet gauging" for thickness (Specs. 1/8 i 1/32). This was also verified by the contractor's inspector.

D. Observed the application of the second coat on concrete wall (E1. 642, Rooms 04, 05, RB II). The contractor's inspector had previously directed an additional scraping of the wall prior to the application.

The workmen were just finishing that operation. The application

+

of this material (114) is also by a blade. Its purpose is mainly to level the voids in the concrete. Thickness may vary from 1-10 mil; no wet-film measurements were observed during the time of inspection.

E. A " rework was observed at El. 689, A2, 248' to 271* of structural

, steel between the fuel pool wall and the drywell wall. This involved the power tool removal of rust or nonconforming zine primer. This involved the bolts and nuts of the I-beam junctions. The cleanup job was deemed excellent by the inspector who released it for coating.

No primer was to be applied. When I questioned this, I was referred to ECN #7433-64-44, Rev. A, Attachment I, 5:03.4.6, which allows for direct application of top coat on this rework.

F. On 10/8/82, I reviewed the inspector's reports on the three projects I observed on 10/7/82 and found them to be complete and accurate.

3 C. .

W'h ile making the above observations, I had the opportunity to witness several occasions where there were direct contacts between the coatings workmen and their supervisors and the inspector. During each of the encounters, there appeared to be a rather genuine air of cooperation and respect.

OBSERVATION OF SYSTEM WALKDOWN I. SCOPE Observe system test engineer walkdown of the P45 Emergency Service Water System.

II. OBSERVATION .

.i A. The test engineer had all appropriate documents (scoping package, deficiency list, system diagram) for the walkdown.

B. The engineer had a good working knowledge of his system status.

C. When asked if several nonconformance tagged items were on his deficiency list, the test engineer found they were not.

D. Further research determined that some of the nonconformances were closed out, but all tags had not been removed. In one case, research of the records indicated the nonconformance tag was on the wrong item. In another case, the noncohformance computer log had deleted the NR and the engineer had deleted it from the deficiency list without field verification. He had subsequently caught the error when the NR was replaced in the log and he was in the process of updating the deficiency list.

III. CONCLUSIONS .

A. More emphasis should be placed on field verification of nonconforming items.

B. Quality personnel La some cases are not removing nonconformance tags after closeout of the NR and some items are being incorrectly tagged.

OBSERVATION OF INSPECTION OF PIPE HANGERS I. SCOPE Discussed the program for the inspection of the pipe hangers installed by the rajer piping contractor under SP-44 with the Lead Inspector of the assigned QC group, and with him observed the inspection of two hangers.

II. OBSERVATIONS A. The Lead Inspector stated that his inspectors are all qualified to Level II but was not aware of whether the contract surveyors who he uses were registered.

B. The Lead Inspector stated that he does not get work schedule information on hanger installation to use for planning inspection work, but rather, his inspectors respond to requests from the contractor.

C. The second hanger inspected (1G43H008) was found to have a defect and was not signed off. The hanger was actually a guide, and the clearance between the guide and the pipe was less than the allowable 1/32 inch on one side.

III. CONCLUSION A. The observed inspection was performed in accordance with applicable procedures. Rework may be necessary because of inadequate t

clearance. It was stated that the clearance was proper at fitup, so

! that a welding process or procedure may be at fault.

OBSERVATION OF MATERIAL HANDLING I. SCOPE Conducted an observation of the outside storage to establish if the objectives of the Storage Maintenance Requirements are being met.

II. OBSERVATIONS A. The Warehouse Supervisor's alternate and the Lead Receiving Inspector reviewed the mechanisms of receiving and putting the material in storage. Both were knowledgeable and cooperative.

B. The whole Owner-managed storage area was inspected and all outside storage appeared to be in compliance with the Nuclear Design and Procurement Procedure 3-1302.

C. My guide pointed cut areas where added covered storage was supplied to accommodate the implementation of the plans.

D. When asked ab'out the rapidity of repair of pipe and equipment closures, he indicated that they respond as soon as they hear of an incident.

I mentioned that I saw several pipes which had ruptured caps the previous day. He seemed somewhat surprised and we hunted for them without success. He explained that they may have been in the contractor's storage.

III. CONCLUSION A. The preliminary conclusion is that present control of the outdoor storage function is being adequately handled.

OUTSIDE STORAGE I. SCOPE Conducted an observation of Owner-managed outside storage to evaluate the implementation of the Maintenance Program.

II. OBSERVATIONS l A. Inspection of materials stored inside (but not in the warehouse) and i inspection of equipment which was already in place indicated that l maintenance was being handled properly. The Storage Maintenance Requirements (SMR) were quite evident;. maintenance dates (such as replacement of desiccant) were marked and current.

B. Outside storage materials were almost completely devoid of SMR's.

It was explained that there was considerable difficulty in keeping these attached due to their availability to the general work force and the elements. There is no requirement to have this document on the equipment (Nuclear Design and Procurement 3-0102, 9/21/81), but it is done for the convenience of the inspectors.

C. We walked the . area trying to locate the 6" pipes which I found the previous day uncapped. . We could not find them. Either they had been recapped or removed from storage in the meantime or may have been in a contractor's storage area.

D. I inquired about the inspection control schedule and was Laformed that it is now up to data but had problems earlier. They now do audits more frequently than the schedule requires.

III. CONCLUSIONS i

l This cbservation of materials stored outdoors indicated that at the present time the program was being adequately implemented. However, subeequent analysis of warehouse SMR records showed some weakness in the effectiveness of the system.

OBSERVATION #2 0F EXPANSION ANCHOR BOLT INSTALLATION BY THE INSTRUMENTATION CONTRACTOR I. SCOPE Gbserved torquing of bolts for Hanger P-1043 #3, Dwg. #MK IH51-104-3, Rev. O, at El. 664 in the Unit 1 Reactor drywell outside wall at location N270*. The bolts had previously been drilled and installed and the plate fitted and nuts drawn tight and ready for torquing. The contractor's QC inspector was present, as well as a CQS inspector.

II. OBSERVATIONS A. Contractor's QC inspector was taking measurements to determine location of plate. He also made visual inspection of the plate and bolts and the welded angle bracket on the plate. Location is verified from survey points along the circular wall and elevations previously established by contractor's survey crew. Measurements are taken from these points to establish locations as shown on hanger drawing.

B. Torque wrench was set by craftsmen at 200 ft.lbs. and checked by QC.

Wrench #72-33 was, used. Allowable torque was reached when wrench clicked.

C. Inspector then checked for skewness by inspecting washers for plate bearing by inserting thin steel rule under plate and minimum imbedment by measuring bold exposure above nut.

j D. QC inspector signed off on the activity.

E. It seemed to me that the top bolt on the hanger may not have the minimum 4" imbed for 3/4" diameter bolt and I measured it. I came up with 4-1/2".

F. I did not check wrench calibration because the earlier checks I had

. made were good, and the CQS inspector said he was going to check m

this so'etime today.

III. CONCLUSION A. The expansion anchor bolt installations I have observed were according to procedures. The only concern is that there is no verification evident of complete grouting of unused holes.

OE3ERVATION OF AIR MANIFOLD INSTALLATION I. SCOPE Two Nuclear Test Section (NTS) personnel were attempting to field verify air manifold connections for an upcoming air supply test. Observed NTS personnel interacting with I&C Engineer and accompanied personnel to field v'erify air manifold connections.

II. OBSERVATIONS A. NTS personnel had visually checked several air manifold connections end found them in error. Furthe- checking indicated they were not working from the proper print revision.

B. Latest " Contractor Drawing Distribution List - Monthly Report" was used to verify proper "as-built" field revision which I&C Engineer had. NTS personnel were not aware of this list.

C. NTS personnel checked their visual inspection data with proper drawing revisions and still found discrepancies.

D*. hB Unit 1, El. 600', IP 52-J112 manifold was checked visually. NTS personnel stated they could not visually confirm routing due to inaccessibility and would have to use compressed air to trace pipe continuity.

E. IP 52-J112 was tagged with a blue tag for NTS. Observed loose clamp on copper tubing bundle (screw missing) and screw missing on upper left-hand strut.

F. Auxiliary Boiler House, El. 620', IP 52-Jll8 was visually checked.

Checked only 4th outlet on left supply which was supposed to be a l spare from print. Was connected to an instrument and did not agree with print. Was easy to visually check (run of approximately 20 ft.).

G. Inquired as to how long piping runs could be. Knew of no limitation in length. Stated that runs have been made between buildings.

III. CONCLUSIONS.

l i

A. The drawing had not been revised to indicate the actual installation which was installed on a " field route" basis.

B. In this instance, NTS personnel were not adequately trained on how to obtain latest print revisions.

_k OBSERVATION OF FLUSHING OPERATION I. SCOPE Conducted an observation of the flush of Condensate Transfer and Storage System on September 28, 1982, a system which had previously been difficult to flush. It had been " pigged" as a result and was being given a final flush.

II. OBSERVATIONS A. The Test Support Engineer (TSE) who directed the program was well acquainted with the system; the support personnel were likewise well acquainted.

B. The TSE at times was somewhat careless with the " pillowcase" used to evaluate the efficiency of the flush. They were left uncovered on boxes, etc., in the plant atmosphere between tests. Despite this handling, the flush still passed inspection.

C. TSE did not always initial the activity being completed at the time

. of completion.

D. When asked why this syst'em had been so troublesome to clean, the operator indicated the piping was installed a relatively long time ago after what he felt was poor outside storage.

E. When the " pillowcase" tests showed the system to meet ANSI Class B cleanliness, the operator was asked if a layup procedure would be employed. He indicated no special layup was required since there was expected to be some work performed on the system. The procedure allows up to 45 days for this work. (The instructions - IP11A-F-026-M requires only draining of the system if work is expected within 45 days.)

F. .I asked about organic removal (such as overheated weld purge barriers) since this could not be evaluated by the " pillowcase." The operator indicated that there was a letter from Engineering excluding them from this evaluation. This was confirmed.

III. CONCLUSION A; This operation is under adequate control. Except for minor technique deficienices, it could be ccasidered a well handled process.
