Scope The evaluation was a "self-initiated" review of work being done by the Design, Construction, and Quality Assurance Departments on the Catawba Nuclear Station. Personnel conducting the evaluation were employed by Duke Power Company and the Tennessee Valley Authority (see the resumes that follow). Evaluation team members were selected on the basis of their experience in design, construction, and quality assurance. Duke team members had little direct responsibilities for activities at the Catawba site and none in the areas they reviewed.

To prepare the team members for the evaluation, INPO trained key team members in the methodology of the "self-initiated" review. These individuals then trained the other team members.

The evaluation consisted of field observations, interviews, and review of supporting documentation.

NOTE: This evaluation did not include a review and assessment of vendors supplying permanent plant materials and equipment in areas other than HVAC. In addition the evaluation did not include any preoperational testing beyond the testing performed by Duke's Construction Department.

SUMMARY

Introduction l

An evaluation was conducted of design and construction activities

  • at Duke Power Company's Catawba Nuclear Plant Units No. 1 & 2 during l the period from September 27 through October 14, 1982. The evaluation was initiated by Duke Power Company and was conducted by an evaluation team comprised of senior technical and management personnel from Duke Power Company and Tennessee Valley Authority. The evaluation team utilized performance objectives and criteria developed by the Institute of Nuclear Power Operations specifically to support the Institute's sponsoring utilities in this type of evaluation. The plant, which is located in Clover, South Carolina will be two 1145 MWe (Westinghouse)

PWR Units. Unit 1 is about 90% complete and is scheduled to begin commercial operation in 1985.

Statement of Purpose The purpose of this self-initiated evaluation was to facilitate the general upgrading of this plant, and the nuclear industry as a whole, to a higher level of excellence in the design and construction of new facilities. A true appreciation of this effort can best be achieved by a review of the performance objectives, the results, and the corrective actions specific to this evaluation as contained in the body of this report.

j Overall Assessment Within the scope of this evaluation, the team determined that the plant was being designed and constructed by well qualified personnel. Once the facility is completed, we are confident that the plant will perform its intended functions and operate safely.

Certain Strengths were noted as follows:

1. A strong corporate committment to design and construct a safe facility.
2. Construction facilities and equipment are planned for, acquired, installed, and maintained in a manner consistent with projects needs to support quality construction.

l

3. Project scheduling and work planning were in order and are making effective and efficient use of project resources.
4. The procurement of equipment, materials and services was adequate to meet project requirements.

5 The management of project documentation was reviewed and found to provide 2

i a strong base for the plant's operational stage.

6. Management has shown support of training by hiring an outside consultant to review the inplace training techniques and performing a "needs analysis".

7 Quality Assurance and Quality Control functions were performed adequately and independently to support and control the quality of the facility.

Improvements Were Recommended in a Number of Areas: The Following are Considered the Most important:

(DC.1) 1. Procedure for the responsibility, issuance, and control of Design input needs to formalized.

(DC.2) 2. Coordination on Design changes between the design disciplines should be improved.

(DC.4) 3. Formal program is needed to review design documents to assure constructability, s maintainability, and operability.

(QA.3) 4. Managers and supervisors need to be reminded to enforce adherence to all plant policies and procedures.

(CC.3) 5. A Construction program should be implemented for site material control.

(CC.4) 6. Closer control and monitoring of activities conducted by the HVAC contractor (QP.1) is necessary.

(CC.5) 7. Inspection procedures need to be clearer in their definition of requirements.

8. Assessing generic implications of construction problems need to be considered more often.

I (QP 3) 9 Independent assessment of quality related activities should be incorporated into a program.

(TC.1) 10. Methods and procedures used to perform system testing needs to be reveiwed and individual responsibilities need to be more clearly defined.

I, Performance Objective Senior and middle managers in the owner's corporate office, designer's office, and at the construction site who are assigned functional responsibility for matters relating to the nuclear project should exhibit, through personal interest, awareness, and knowledge, a direct involvement in significant decisions that could affect their responsi-bilities.

II. Sco=e of Evaluation The scope of evaluation included the Project Manager and his immediate staff of the Construction organization, the division Chief Engineers and their immediate staff of the Design organization, and the Corporate Quality Assurance Manager and his immediate staff. The evaluation consisted of interviews, document review of examples of management involvement,and walk-through activities that enabled demon-stration of involvement either before or during the walk-through. Approximately 70 hours8.101852e-4 days <br />0.0194 hours <br />1.157407e-4 weeks <br />2.6635e-5 months <br /> were utilized by the total team for this evaluation. .

i l

. Conclusion All managers demonstrated, in general, a good understanding of the activities for which they were personally responsible and maintain an action tracking system for followup. One area for which a weakness was expressed by some managers was the relatively low visibility experienced at the Construction site. In some instances, Managers stated they spend less than 5 percent of their time in the Construction '

area. No finding was developed for this case. With this one exception, the acti-  ;

vities covered under this performance objective were considered satisfactory. .

2. Provide factual inforn tion that suceerts the Perfo mance Evaluation S t::=tarv_
1. Review of system design input documents used to provide interface criteria revealed the following:

A. The Mechanical System description and the system flow diagram are identified as the primary Design input documents; however, only the flow diagrams are revised in a timely manner. Most Mechanical Systems personnel interviewed did not feel that the Mechanical System description needed to be revised prior to or in conjunction wi th the flow diagram.

B. Design changes required by DCA(s), VN(s), NPR(s), etc are incorporated into the Design input process mainly through revision of the system flow diagram and direct communication with organizations having a Design interface.

C. The Mechanical and Electrical System descriptions for the RHR System

were found to disagree as to system requirements. The applicable QA procedures (EPR 101 and the Mechanical Systems Group Handbcok, Section 6.0) which govern preparation of system descriptions do not provide guidance for the case of conflicts between Design input documents.
2. A review of the interface between the Mechanical I & C group and the Electrical Equipment Quali fication group for the preparation .of the NUREG 0588 Electrical Equipment Environmental Qualification Report identified the following:

A. The Electrical i & C Group requested information on transmitter required accuracy; whereas, the Mechanical I & C Group provided Instrument accuracy based upcn system requirements (supplied by the process engineer).

B. The instrument total loop accuracy was not considered or addressed due ~

to a breakdown in communications between the groups involved.

3 Interviews and document reviews in the Civil / Environmental Division show the responsibility for Design interface coordination is not clearly defined. However, most of the division personnel interviewed exhibited a very good understanding of who they interfaced with and coordination is conducted through this understanding.

4. From interviews, literature searches and document reviews within the Civil /

Environmentai Division, the Project Management Division and the Safety Review Analysis and Licensing Division; no requirement could be determined to exist for identifying and tracking SAR commitments. The Safety Review Analysis and Licensing Division does compile a list of commitments of which they are aware and track these to completion.

1. The BOP transmitters required accuracy information supplied by the Mechanical

- Ir,C Group for the NUREG 0588 Electrical Equipment Environmental qualification Report does not consider overall instrument loop accuracy. The required accuracy for these transmitters is not coordinated with the Electrical Control System Engineering Group for consideration of overall loop accuracy. The entire system requirements are' being used for the transmitter.

2. During interviews with responsible engineers and their supervisors, it was deter-mined that constructability, operability, maintainability and personnel movement were considered during the design phase, but no documented prcgram was identified which requires these evaluations with the exception of the piping design criteria.

1 Some examples of weakness in the review of constructability are as follows:

A. Transition pieces are being added to the "A" frames of the steam generator upper lateral supports. These transition pieces were necessary due to the "

fact that the required post weld heat treatment of the welds joining the upper lateral supports and the embedment could not be performed.

B. The sealing surfaces of the KF heat exchangers are being weld built-up and machined to eliminate leakage at the sealing surfaces. A welded reinforcing collar was identified and added near the sealing surface that caused distortion of the sealing surface.

C. The area in Unit 1 Auxiliary Building Penetration Room at Elevation 577 where hangers are being installed is extremely congested, making quality installation difficult.

D. In the above defined area, Design changes on items already installed provide potential for extensive rework and/or modifications. Such rework and/or modifications may alter the quality of installed items previously accepted.

, i IV. Areas of weakness and corrective action: Good Practices '

Finding Site' receipt inspection does not ensure that material and equipment (CC.3-1) received on site are evaluated against the requirements of the pro-curement specifications. Examples of the problems identified may potentially result in delays, waste of materials, additional time spent on disposition of deviations from procured materials and work stoppage.

Finding A consistent method for material identification was not in effect in (CC.3-2) the warehouse. Several instances were noted where I.D. tages had fallen off, equipment was marked with ink; and when material was being sectional-ized to start fabrication, a means for maintaining the identification was not being done.

Finding Proper protective measures were not taking place for, environmentally (CC.3-3) sensitive equipment that was " robbed" for spare parts. Some parts were being stored in an open door instrument cabinet.

Finding Procedure QFP-8.002 CNS, Rev 1A, does not indicate the disposition of ~

(CC.3-4) unused filler material. Confusion appears to exist regarding handling ,

of unused filler material and adherence to AWS code requirements could not be determiend.

Finding Materials are not being maintained or stored effectively at work site (CC.3-5) locations. Several examples were noted which reflected improper control.

Finding Scheduled preventive maintenance activities on installed equipment are

, -(CC.3-6) not always assured throughout the entire period of Construction Depart-ment centrol. Equipment was identified for which preventive maintenance had been canceled up to 21 months ago, and there was no evidence that compensatory requirements had been established.

1. During a walk-through in the HVAC, Pipe Fab and Welding Equipment Shops, several weaknesses were observed:

A. In the Pipe Fab Shop:

1. Carbon steel pipe was heavily pitted on the inside diameter, which was only slightly above minimum wall thickness, thus not allowing much for clean-up, fitting and grinding.
2. Orifice flanges are being purchased oversized (next higher schedule) so that sufficient material is available for clean-up of the flow section.

B. In the Welding Equipment Shop:

1. A large supply (several boxes) of glue which is used for we.lding purge dams was being stored in one of the welding shops. The craft indicated they needed to keep a large supply because the warehousg would let them run out if they did not s. ore up.

C. In the HVAC Fab Shop:

1. A safety related galvanized steel angle used by the HVAC contractor is color coded on the ends when received at the site, but when f abrication begins (sectionalizing), no attempt is made to maintain this identification.
2. Procedure QFP-8.002 CNS, Rev 1A, (Control of Welding- Filler Material) requires the return of unused filler material at the end of each shift.

The procedure does not indicate what is the disposition of the unused filler material. The supervisor indicated that the coated electrodes are placed back into the holding oven and are subject to reissue to the -'

next shift. The QA engineer indicated that the returned coated electrodes are placed in a separate holding oven and are returned to Duke Power Company,

, who is responsible for the reconditioning of the electrodes. There is con-fi rmation f rom Duke Power Company welding material issue station employee

, that the contractor does occasionally return coated electrodes. The effective Code, AWS D1.1, requires reconditioning of coated electrodes after exposure to the atmospFere.

consistent' method of correcting the problem was being employed. One ware-house was usi ng ink to mark i,tems. The other one was stapling paper tags on equiprent when possible.

B. Spare generator cifcuit breaker had been robbed of parts for use with other circuit breckers without protection of disconnected parts. Some parts were stored in an instrument cabinet with the door open.

C. Access to warehouse area where safety-related equipment was stored was not secured in two warehouses. Entrance area was open for access by both maintenance personnel and electrical termination and panel fabrication crew.

D. A 4-inch stainless steel pipe was on a rusty set of carbon steel rollers used to move pipe into the pipe cutting building. The stainless pipe had rust streaks on the surface.

E. Cable reels were stored with cable ends not taped as requirtd in the storage yard. .

3 At a review of a repressure test in the Auxiliary Building on 10-4-82 for Shutdown 201B 7626 water was leaking from a temporary hose connection and was being allowed to soak a carton of filters. The carton was identified "AHU-3 1131-CNS." The situation was pointed out to the test director, but was not corrected.

4 During a walk-through of Unit 1 Turbine Building, it was noticed that while pipe fabrications on spool piece CT-SM-73 had end caps missing, there was no fit up being done in this area. Other fabrications in the main steam chest area were also uncapped. .

5 During a review of No. 10 cadweld operation in the Auxiliary Building, it was learned that the cadweld sleeves and powder had not been received by QC Receiving.

These items were received from another site as non quality items, and the QC inspector was not aware of the 16 51144 sleeves until notified by his supervisor.

The work was stopped.

6. A review of the welding filler control center did not identify any weakness. It is well equipped and designed to handle the flow of work in a smooth, efficient manner.

7 The program for prevantive maintenance of project equipment was observed. The details are presented in Observation of Preventive Maintenance Program. It was noted that preventive maintenance activi ties do not continue through the entire period of construction control.

1. A review of the applicable procedures and the testing and measuring equipment located in the soils laboratory identified the following weaknesses:

A. Scale CKSC TB.-2 stored in a cabinet in the Soils / Concrete Lab with a valid sticker having a calibration due date of 10/23/82. Supervision stated this scala was not bcir.g used. This item could r.ct be located on the computer calibration printout sheets; therefore, no recalibration could be made on this scale by QC area. Calibration sticker on this item implied this was under the program and subject to controls of Procedure 0-1, Rev 15 This procedure required an item to be entered on Form 0-1 A and listed on Form 0-1B; each M and TE item to be controlled. This was not done.

B. Triple Scale 2157 and several soil sieves located in the Soils / Concrete Labora-tory with stickers showing calibration dates had expired. QC supervisor stated these items were not in use. Procedure 0-1, Revision 15, Section 3.8, Discrepancies -- if the calibration check interval is excepded for a M & TE item, but the item is not used af ter the due date, an explanatory note shal t'~

be entered on Form 0-1 A or card 0-1D. Supervisor had failed to meet either of these requirements.

C. A 200 mesh sieve (CKQUA-19707) was observed in the Soils / Concrete Laboratory with a tear in the mesh screen. CP-620 requires any damage sieve to be imme-diately (1) removed from the test area; (2) removed f rom the calibration recall program (not in program); (3) calibration sticker removed (valid sticker-sieve due date not exceeded yet); (4) disposed of immediately (sieve still in Soils /

Concrete Laboratory). Item was removed from the program.

2. Two scheduled concrete placements were observed. The de: ails are presented in Observations of Concrete Placement. The overall work and end results were satis-factory; however, it was obsersed that the device used in measuring the slump 3 had a 1" movement in the vertical direction which could result in cn inaccurate reading.

3 During plant walk-through, severai electrical lug crimping tools (each requires h a unique identification number and requires bi-weekly calibration verification) unique numbers were very difficult to decipher.

_ 4. Construction Procedure 9, Section 5, requires the calibration of the dry film thickness gage at the beginning of each day. The dry film thickness gage used during the review of the coatings facility was calibrated September 13, 1982, with a two-month interval before the next calibration.

1. Independent as'sessments have not been performed for at least the last two years by the QA Department (either the Audit Division or the site surveillance group) in the following areas:

A. Post weld heat treatment (Note: site surveillance was performed in this ,

area through February, 1981, but the assessments were superficial). I B. Pipe Bending

2. The QA technical group does not do a logic check / review of pressure test ,

procedures. The Project QA Manager, in a memo dated 7-B-82, stated that QA review shall not normally include a " testing logic" check--that this check would be accomplished on a surveillance basis. To date, the surveillance.

program has not done a complete pressure test procedu e review. As a result, at a time when 75 percent of the Unit 1 test procedures are written, an effective independent assessment of the test procedures has not been done by site QA.

3 The site surveillance program has noted one finding in the last six months on the test program in six surveillances. Departmental Audit CD-82-10(CN),

conducted July 21 through 27, found four deficient items. A review of the surveillance checklist covering testing (MWN-1) revealed that it did not provide guidance in sufficient detail for a comprehensive assessment of the area.

4. Surveillance CEl-4 completed checklists habitually fall to cover item 13 (Monitor the electrical checkout of one electrical elementary diagram.)

The programmatic requirement for CEl-4 completion is quarterly, although

! the checklist itself requires monthly completion. The last time item 13 was performed was during October 1981. The reasons noted in the completed surveillance checklists for not performing item 13 were either failure of the craft to notify the technicial that the activity was going on or that no work was going on. The Electrical Support Group stated that checkout of electrical elementaries has been performed regularly. There are completed reporting forms, CP-466A, on file for this activity covering the period May through September 1982. Other items of the same checklist have not been performed for several months.

An inspection was made of the Systems Group. The Systems Group is responsible for conducting hydro and pneumatic tests of piping systems. The supervisor of the Systems Group reports to the Construction Engineer-Mechanical. Veaknesses were observed in specifications and procedures.

1. The supervisor had no overall policy direction on paper, such as a letter from management describing the group's mission and responsibilities.
2. The controlling design document is Specification CNS 1206.00-02-1002. This specification covers testing with water. There is nothing in this document that specifies how to handle pneumatic testing. Pneumatic testing is done on such systems as instrument, air and oil.

3 The controlling Quality Assurance procedure is Procedure N-1, Pressure Testing.

This procedure does not address Form L-71 A. There is nothing in N-1 on how to prepare or how to use L-71A. This form is the flow diagram that describes the systems and furnishes Design information. It also gives boundaries for partial system tests and is a principle planning document. The evaluator was told that a new revision of N-1 *is being distributed that mentions Form L-71A.

4. The Form L-7.A for hydro testing the Unit I CA System in the Feedwater Pump Rocm shows mislocated instrument lines. Corrective Action Notice form R-2A No 5350 was issued. The R-2A cleared with a statement that the flow diagram would be revised. The R-2A did not address the testing document (L-71A). The flow diagram has not been corrected. The L-71A was addended to reference the R-2A after the evaluator expressed concern.

5 A part of Design and QA Information being used to perform tests is not in the controlling Specification CNS-1206.00-02-1002, nor in the QA Procedure N-1. This.

Information is contained in various letters that are not controlled documents.

The Systems group reporting to the Construction Engineer-Mechanical is responsible for hydrostatic and pneumatic testing. This organization was reviewed, and interviews were held wi th appropriate' supervi sors. A hydrostatic test was observed for RN retest for Form CP-201B, No. 7626.

1. There is no procedure that clearly describes the organizational structure and organizational relationship to interfacing organizations.
2. There is no document that describes the reporting priorities and relationships between the Systems group supervisor and three separate superiors. The three superiors-are the Construction Engineer-Mechanical, the Completion Engineer and the General Superintendent for Unit 2.

3 The size of the Systems group appeared to be adequate for the assigned tasks.

4. There are no written descriptions of the positions of key management, supervisory and professional personnel. The evaluatcr was Informed that job descriptions have been written, but not yet approved and issued.

5 Personnel who are assigned to perform are trained on procedures. The quali fications of personnel are maintained by training on revisions to procedures. A record is made of training received by each individual.

6. The Hydrostatic Test Procedure CP-283 for the RHR (ND) System was reviewed. The hydrostatic test record for Section 7A shows that the test pressure was held for five minutes, rather than the ten minutes specified. The same individual that recorded this data conducted the RN retest for Form CP-201B, No. 7626. The hydro-static test record Form N1A for this test was examined. The test record and observation revealed that this test director had the following problems:

A. The N-1A listed the piping section low point as Elevation 578. The actual low point was approximately Elevation 602. The N-1A was not corrected before the test was attempted.

B. The N-1A requires the test relief valve set point to be in the range 234-236 psig.

The relief valve furnished by the test director was set to 238 psig. The maximum test pressure was 233 psig. This could have over pressured the system. The test director removed and reset the valve.

C. The test director had marked the minimum test pressure space on the calculation sheet as not applicable. After this was pointed out by the QC inspector, the test director calculated the minimum test pressure as 219.8 psig. The calculation sheet was then corrected.

1. During observations of testing in progress, the following weaknesses were noted.

(A through C -- approximately 300 feet of 1" pipe on CP-566)

A. More than one-half hour each for four craftsmen and the technician were spent trying to locate radios for communications during testing.

B. For approximately one and one-half hours the test crew tried to pump one section to test pressure. There was a boundary valve leak-through problem that prevented bringing the system to pressure. I t was not determined where the leak was.

C. Approximately s!x hours were spent from the time the test technician and craft started out to do a relatively simple test until it was completed and the pipe Inspected.

(D through J -- test for 201B 7626, RN System approximately 100 feet of 3" pipe)

D. The N-1A (hydro test form) listed th'e section low point as Elevation 578.

The actual low point was approximately 602. The N-1A was not corrected.

E. The N-IA indicated a relief valve set to 234-236 psig was required. The relief valve supplied by the test director was set at 238 psig. The maximum test pressure was 233 psig.

F. The QC inspector pointed out to the test director that he had marked minimum test pressure as not applicable. The minimum test pressure was then calculated by the director to be 219.8 psig, and the form corrected.

G. The temporary hoses being used to supply water to the system were leaking.

The water was soaking a carton of filters identified as "AHU-31131-CNS."

This was pointed out to the test director, but the situation was not corrected.

H. Water from a hose leak was running through an air duct sleeve to the elevation below, creating a slick floor. During the observation, two different people came to the test director to complain. A utility person was stationed on the floor below to clean up the water. The hose connection was tightened to slow down the leak.

l. The test director lef t the test area to have the relief valve reset to 232 psig, and the range corrected on the N-1A. Two craft personnel and two inspectors waited in the area for him to return. The wait was approximately 20 to 25 minutes.

identified in the PSAR are met. Design information should be clearly defined and controlled.

I i c orrective Action Plan Duke Power Company's past method for control of SAR commitments has been as follows:

1. Listings of commitments maintained by SRAL Division have been used to identify, track, and control:

I a. PSAR commitments, outside those embodied in normal engineering j practice.

b. Commitments sent to the NRC after PSAR approval and prior to submittal of FSAR.

l c. Commitments identified prior to preparation of the FSAR to be I included in the FSAR.

t d. Deviation from PSAR commitments.

l

e. Deviations from FSAR commitments. These deviations included in licensing documents via norm,al SAR and license amendments.

j

2. Commitment and deviation listings have been distributed to Design
Engineering Sections Heads and updated on no less than a quarterly basis.
3. All SAR and Regulatory Commitments are reviewed by appropriate levels of Duke management prior to submittal to'NRC. Quality Assurance procedures require the consideration of SAR and other regulatory commitments in the preparation of calculations, design specifications, and related documents.

l Duke Power Company feels that this finding has merit in that a number of SAR and Regulatory Commitments were considered a part of normal engineering practice and were not controlled by any o.f the above methods. An effort will be initiated to develop a program for more direct commitment tracking.

Program development will be complete by March 1,1983.

Performance Area DESIGN INPUT Evaluator (s) C. Glidewell IV. Areas of Weakness and Corrective Action; Good Practices Finding # DC 1-2 No control program for defining responsibility for providing Design input could be found. Input is usually provided on a request basis.

Corrective Action Plan The organizational responsibilities in the Design Engineering Department are formally documented in responsibility statements. In addition, significant commitments to provide design input are included in the integrated schedule or' punch list by responsibile group. At the supervisory level within Design Engineering, the design process is well understood; however, due to speciali-zation in some functional groups, individual engineers may not be familiar with the overall process.

The INP0 finding identifies some Design Engineering activities where formal procedures could be of value to Duke's overall design program. The INP0 observations will be used as a basis for continued review of this area through May 31, 1983,to determine if specific problems indicate a need for a more stringent control program. Corrective action regarding specific problems identified concerning system descriptions is addressed under the discussion of findings DC 1-4, 2-1, 3-3, 4-3 and 5-1. Corrective action regarding specific problems identified concerning instrumentation design is addressed under the discussion of findings DC 2-2 and DC 4-1.

  1. DC.1-4 System descriptions and flow diagrams do not always agree as to the current requirements. Several system descriptions were observed to lag revisions of system flow diagrams.
  1. DC.2-1 The process for controlling Design input documents does not require tirt,ely updating of system descriptions. The RHR and AFW System descriptions are not maintained current with system designs.
  1. DC.3-3 Design documents relating to the design of the RHR System are in disagreement creating a potential for error in the design.

This is also true for the VFW System.

  1. DC.4-3 System descriptions are used to provide system control informa-tion. They do not reflect current system design.
  1. DC.5-1 Conflicts between system design documents exist for extended periods of time, because system descriptions are not revised in a timely manner.

Corrective Action Plan All of the above INPO findings evolve from Design Engineering Depart-ment's philosophy pertaining to system descriptions. System descriptions q as utilized in Duke's design process are considered general supporting documents to flow diagrams and electrical elementary drawings. Also, system descriptions are important for initiating system design and for documenting the final design.

The present method of handling system descriptions requires a close working and approval process between Mechanical and Electrical. Although the process has worked well in the past, there is potential for improve-ment and the following corrective measures will be considered and pursued by Design Engineering:

1) Provide more timely update for both mechanical and electrical systems descriptions on a continuous basis with completion by Reactor Fuel Load date for Catawba Unit 1.

106

Page 2 of 2 Finding #'s DC.1-4, DC.2-1, DC.3-3, DC.4-3, and DC.5-1 Corrective Action Plan (Continued)

2) Document future changes in instrumentation and controls on instru-mentation data sheets. Instrumentation data sheets currently have a three level signoff (prepared, checked, approved); addi-tionally, in the future these documents will be issued via a controlled distribution. This approach will provide downstream work groups a document to work from until the Mechanical System Description is revised.
3) On future plant designs, consider using logic drawings to transmit design -information now found in the Mechanical System Description in a more graphic and controlled manner. With this change, the Mechanical System Description would then become a general i n fo rma-tion document only. '
4) Establish a time interval governing revisions to the Electrical System Description. Afterwards, monitor Electrical system descrip-tion release schedules to insure they reflect current system-designs.

Areas 1), 2), and 3) stated above for improvement of Duke Power Company's Design program will be evaluated, appropriate procedures revised or developed for implementation within Design Engineering by March 1, 1983 Item 4) will be implemented by December 15, 1982.

Corrective Action Plan As a result of an earlier internal review by Desgin Engineering, revised procedures are being implemented to improve contral of seismic design requirements. Responsibilities have been reviewed and the Civil / Environmental Division will review all specifications and procedures containing seismic design or qualification requirements to assure seismic requirements are adequately and correctly specified. In addition, the Civil / Environmental Division is preparing structural design specifications for each plant that include the seismic analysis and design requirements for major structures.

It is Duke's position that adequate procedures are in place or being implemented to control the use of response spectra and assure seismic design requirements _are being satisfied.

IV. Areas of Weakness and Corrective Action; Good Practices Finding # DC 4-2 No documented program was identified for determining and assuring review for constructability, maintainability and operability is conducted. Reviews are performed where a need is identified.

Corrective Action Plan Reviews for constructability, maintainability, and operability.have been conducted during the design and construction phases of Catawba Nuclear Station.

There are three primary programs for review as follows:

1) Scale Model Reviews - Each area of the plant has been reviewed several times utilizing our scale model (3/8 inch = 1 foot). Also, special enlarged models of small congested areas are constructed where potential-problems are known to exi'st.
2) . Composite Drawing Reviews - This series of orthographic drawings illustrates the design of all engineering disciplines within each area of the plant.

As design drawings are released, the composite drawings are updated and the design is reviewed for constructability and maintainability.

3) Piping Design Criteria - There are 24 Piping Design Criteria. Construct-ability, maintainability and operability were considered in the development of the criteria. Since the Piping Design Criteria is a recent development, it has only been utilized on new designs and recent design revisions.

Each of the above programs is documented and solicits appropriate inputs by affected groups within the company.

'To further improve or supplement the above programs, Duke Power organized a task force to i.nvestigate methods for improving Construction and Nuclear Production input into the design process during the fall of 1981. This study especially addressed reviews for constructability, maintainability and operability. The study and resulting reconnendations have been completed and approved for imple-mentation beginning with the design of the Cherokee Nuclear Station. Recommend-ations included the formation of review groups from the Construction and Nuclear Prod 0ction Departnents which review considerations for constructability, main-tainability and operability.

In summary, our Design Engineering Department's design process includes formal reviews for constructability, maintainability and operability which are considered adegu, ate; therefore, no change to existing or approved future Duke practices are p'lanned as a result of this finding.

Performance Area Design Input / Design Interfaces / Design Output Evaluator (s) Below, Clif t, Glidewell, Hendricks IV. Areas of Weakness and Corrective Action; Good Practices Finding # DC.2-2. DC.4-1 Finding Several instances were identified where Design and Design change (DC.2-2) information were not effectively coordinated between the affected organizations. Several problems were observed involving the exchange of information and control of interfaces between the electrical and mechanical I & C groups and between suppo.rt/

restraint and piping layout sections.

Finding The B0P transmitter accuracy information required for the NUREG 0588 (DC.4-1) Electrical Equipment Environmental Qualification Report is not being properly determined. The overall instrument loop accuracy is not considered.

Corrective Action Plan The above findings all relate to the specific weakness identified in Finding DC.4-1 with respect to the interface between Mechanical Instrumentation and Control (liPIC) and the Electrical Division. The weakness is a lack of an established and documented program and responsibility assignments for determining -

required accuracy for Catawba safety related instroments located in potentially harsh plant environments as required by NUREG 0588.

To correct this specific problem, an appropriate dccumented resolution will be developed and implemented with affected groups by December 15, 1982.

I In addition, existing methods of accounting for instrumentation accuracies in overall system design, both safety and non-safety, consist of unwritten understandings and agreements. To improve Design Engineering interfaces, responsibilities and methods, a more formal progran will be developed and implemented by March 1, 1983.

Support / Restraint and Piping layout sections.

f f Corrective Action Plan l

Current practices have an inherent weakness to the extent that Support / Restraint generated isometrics have potential for being in disagreement with the drawings produced by the Station Services Group. Discrepancies between the two can exist l for the following reasons:

l 1. Discrepancy between erected pipe and Station Services Drawings; i

2. Incorrect field measurement;
3. Translation error in the isometric process;
4. Time lag in revision process, i.e., the two documents temporarily may not be in agreement with latest revisions.

In order to ensure that disagreements between the Support / Restraint isometrics and the Station Services drawings are discovered and resolved in a timely fashion, the following future action plan will be implemented by the Mechanical. and, Nuclear Division:

1. Support / Restraint Group will review their isometric drawings against Station Services Group drawings and identify and resolve cases where there is a disa-greement.
2. Future isometric drawings will require an inspection sign-off by the Station l Services Group. Station Services Group will review the isometrics for con-

. figuration and inclusion of the latest revisions.

l ,, (pplementation ,of steps 1 and 2 will begin December 1,1982.

In conclusion, Duke agrees with the INP0 Finding- and appropriate procedures will be revised and/or developed formally documenting the above interface improvements.

Performance Area DESIGN PROCESS Evaluator (s) C. Glidewell IV. Areas of Weakness and Corrective Action: Good Practices Finding # DC 3-2 Changes to design drawings do not receive the same degree of documented review as the original issue. Originals are documented by designer, drawer, checker and approver. Revisions are documented by checker and approver.

Corrective Action Plan Dresings are processed in accordance with the Design Engineering Quality Assurance program. This program distinguishes between original drawing issue and revision issue insofar as the degree of sign-off required. Even though there is a difference in the amount of documented information concerning those individuals working on a drawing, the overall program maintains the same integrity for r'. visions as for original issue. Both original issue drawings and revisions to those drawings are prepared by a qualified individual. The information which is prepared by the qualified individual is then checked by another individual, other than the supervisor, who is equally qualified. This check is documented in the case of original issue and revision issue. If there are interfacing considerations with other divisions, appropriate inspection signatures are obtained for both original issue and revision issue drawings. Finally, the original issue or revision issue of the drawing is approved by an individual authorized in writing by the division head of the sponsoring division. In all instances, work on design drawings is done by a qualified preparer, checked by another qualified individual, and approved by a designated supervisor who is in responsible charge of the work. Documentation of who actually prepared a revision to an original drawing has no bearing on the quality or integrity of the design.

Although INP0's finding is correct,it does not represent a design deficiency or weakness. The finding and supporting facts describe what is documented in the Design Engineering Quality Assurance program as Duke procedure. This program has met the test of time for adequacy and has been reviewed and accepted by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. No change to existing Duke practices are planned as a result of this finding.

Corrective Action Plan The INP0 finding relative to this matter is unique to the Mechanical Systems Group of Duke Design Engineering and requi res two corrective actions as follows.

1) Documentation Deficiencies - As a result of this INP0 finding, Design Engineering conducted a review of the Mechanical Systems Group calculational file which revealed that a small percentage

(<5%) of the Catawba calculations were not in the required docu-mentation format. All calculations not in the required documenta-tion format will be upgraded to proper format by March 1, 1983

2) Mechanical System Verification - As a system reaches an advanced stage of erection (system as-built to QA procedure HPR-140), design data, parameters, and functional design requirements that are important to nuclear safety ere verified in a final system verifica-tion calculation prior to reactor fuel load as required by ANSI N45.2-II. Although the Design Engineering Department's system verification process is acceptable, it has two weaknesses; the requirement for system verification is not documented in writing nor is the work scheduled. In order to formalize and assure the requirement for system verification is met, a Mechanical Systems Group work place procedure will be written and implemented by 1-15-83 to define design parameters to be verified and how the verification can be accomplished. A schedule for system verifica-tion will be developed based on as-built and reactor fuel load dates. Appropriate entries will be added to the Design Engineering acti vities punchlist by 12-15-82 to assure system verification calculations are completed prior to reactor fuel load.

Performance Area Construction Quality Inspections Evaluator (s) D L Freeze IV. Areas of Weakness and Corrective Action: Good Practices Finding # CC.5-3 Inspection requirements established by HVAC contractor do not verify that Code requirements are met.

Corrective Action Plan A review with Bahnson personnel confirmed that the sign offs on the weld procedures constituted verification that the procedure meets the require-ments of AWS D-1.1. A letter is forthcoming to verify this.

Based upon this aedit, questions have been raised as to the compliance of Bahnson Weld Inspection Procedure, QCI-9.001 CfiS, to the AWS Code D1.1 as it relates to undercut.

When Bahnson procedure QCI-9.001 CNS was formulated, a conversation was held between Bahnson and Duke's Catawba Analysis and Support Restraints section concerning the 1/32" undercut being in compliance with the Code.

Duke's support restraint section felt that the 1/32" undercut was acceptable due to the loading on these welds but this was not documented or followed up by a letter.

Duke Design Analysis Section has stated that concern for undercut is primarily related to fatigue considerations. The requirement for less allowable undercut when its direction is transverse to primary tensile stress is specifically aimed at high stress fatigue considerations.

Fatigue is not a concern in HVAC duct support systems and stresses for all loading conditions other than seismic are relatively low. For this reason the criteria used by Bahnson is considered acceptable.

Duke Specification CHS 1211.00-05 will be revised stating that fatigue is not a concern for HVAC duct support systems and stresses for all loading conditions other than seismic are relatively low; therefore undercut up to 1/32 inch is acceptable regardless of direction of primary tensile stress.

This revision will be completed by Feburary .1,1983.

OBSERVATION OF COSMETIC CONCRETE REPAIR I. Scope Observed two Concrete Finishers and one QC Inspector performing cosmetic concrete repair of spalled concrete around a 12" pipe penetrating the concrete containment wall--Unit 1 Reactor Building. The repair was on the outside f ace of the wall at Elevation 560 in the Auxiliary Building penetration room area.

11. Observations A. The repai r area had been previously cleaned of all loose particles.

The workers did clean area of any loose dust, etc, with compressed air before beginning work.

B. The inspector measured depth of spalling and assured the repair area met requirements for cosmetic repair.

C. The repair material, Sikatop 123, was already mixed. The QC Inspector said they had mixed one comolete bag since several large areas were going to be repaired.

D. The workers aoplied the components properly and blended the repai r with the originally-placed concrete such that a smooth interface resulted.

E. The QC Inspector observed the work in progress. He had a current copy of CP-430 in his possession which addressed cosmetic repair.

He also had a release log of Sikatop materials approved by QA 9-24-82, Revision 33, Occument Number 337 F. In the area was a fire extinguisher which had been inspected 9-8-82.

150

G. Two workers near the area were on an unguarded platform greater than 20 feet above the floor drilling and installing expansion anchors. One worker was tied off by safety lanyard; the other was not.

Ill. Conclusions A. Some craf t personnel tend to ignore safety practices.

OBSERVATION OF CONCRETE OPERATION

1. Scoce Observed the batching, sampling, testing and placing operations for concrete assigned to Pour No. 4960 in the No. 2 Reactor Building from 8:45 am till 12:15 pm on 10-1-82.
11. Observations A. One Level I civil-structural inspector and one operator were present at the batch plant.

B. The first truck load (4 c.y.) was batched out--had the required mix-actual weights on a printed-out ticket, signed by the inspector releasing the truck for delivery. This load of concrete was rejected because of unacceptable amount of Melment was added to the concrete.

C. Reviewed records on storage of material--Form P-3C, Revision 1, dated 6-12-80, inspection of Stored Material and Equipment. Aggregate and admixtures met the level and storage conditions required. It was signed by Level I structural inspector and dated 10-1-82.

1 D. The second truck load (4 c.y.) was batched out--meeting all require-ments of Procedure M-2. This load of concrete was rejected--exceeded slumo before addition of Melment, even though the batched out water was 858 pounds, and the maximum Design called for was c60 pounds.

Note: There was a long telephone conversation between the plant inspector and his supervisor about the amount of water and Melment to be batched out on the second load.

E. The third truck load (4 c.y.) was batched out--met all requirements of the procedure. This load was accepted before and after the addition of Melment.

160

F. It was noted during the slump test measurement that the handle attached to baseplate had a 1/4" movement in the vertical direction.

This device is not under the calibration program. Remaining slump tests were performed by the inverted cone method. Both methods are acceptable.

G. A QA technician was performing a surveillance of this concrete pour.

These are required quarterly. No problems were noted.

H. First concrete reached the form at approximately 10:45 am. At the form were four utility personnel and thei r supervisor to place the concrete, two builders and thei r supervisor to monitor the form, one crane flagman and one QC inspector to monitor the placing of the concrete.

I. The concrete was being transported in a two cubic yard bucket. A tremie chute was used to drop concrete to bottom of form.

J. The Melment admixture caused the concrete to flow readily. Good vibration of the concrete in the form was performed.

K. Placing of the concrete progressed well. No clogging of tremie chute occurred.

L. The two craf ts were assisting each other when the need arose indicating good cooperation.

M. Good safety practices were observed. Safety belts and lanyards were being used where needed.

N. The approach path of the concrete to the form traveled over the refueling canal. The canal had been covered with polyethylene to protect against dripping concrete laitance.

161

I Ill. Conclusion Site personnel are not properly trained in the use of the additive, Melment to the concrete mix.

OBSERVATION 0F MATERIAL CONTROL .

I. Scope Review warehouse and storeyard storage activities relating to electrical equipment.

II. Observation A. Identification of material and equipment, both safety and non-safety, within warehouses was by paper stick-on tag with non-permanent adhesive. Tags on numerous items were either loose or had fallen off. Warehouseman stated there was no standard procedure for tagging or identifying equipment in the warehouse.

B. A non-safety transformer that was damaged was stored in middle of the aisle without any identification tag. The warehouseman was able to find the receiving paper by leafing through the record book. There was no camage notation on record.

C. Safety and non-safety equipment was stored together. There is potential for issuing wrong equipment.

D. Access to warehouse is rat secure from adjacent termination fabrication shop. Material on second and tnird shelves on bin separating the shop and warehouse is directly accessible L

to shoc personnel.

E. Access to warehouse is not secure from adjacent maintenance office area. Double doors were unlocked and open allowing direct access to storage areas.

F. Warehouseman responsible for receiving equipment in one warehouse stated he did not know of any procedures relating to his work.

Quality Assurar.ce Procedures P-1 and P-2 are directly applicable to receiving ano storage activities.

163

G. Same warehouseman Indicated he had been in his job three years and had not received any formal training in that job. Absence of knowledge of procedures indicates need for training. i H. Cable reels were stored in storage yard with cable ends open and unprotected. Open cable ends allow moisture to enter causing cable deterioration and possible failure in service.

1. Spare generator circuit breaker stored in yard had its control cabinet open where parts had been robbed. Disconnected tubing connections and loose parts were, therefore, exposed to the open envi ronmen t. This indicated lack of storage control, maintenance and surveillance and could lead to deterioration of equipment.

J. Varehouse supervisor indicated he needed training and informa-tion on handling hazardous materials.

Ill. Conclusions A. The procedures for storage of material are not always followed.

B. Procedures for identification of equipment in storage are not available.

C. Knowledge of storage procedures appear to be lacking.

0. Training of personnel does not appear adequate.

E. Procedures for identi fication of damaged equipment wi thin the warehouse do not appear to exist.

F. Control of access to warehouse appears to be weak.

OBSERVATION OF HVAC SUPPORT INSTALLATION

1. Scoce An observation was made of Bahnson Service Company's installation of duct supports and plenum work in the Unit 2 Auxiliary Building.

Approximately 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> were spent on this observation.

II. Observations A. Viewed Support 2-H-VC-4999 There appeared to be excessive undercut on some of the welds.

B. Looked at a plenum that was shown on Drawing CN-1684-VA-000H, Rev 0. This drawing had two sheets. There were differences between the drawing and what was erected.

Reviewed Design Change Request A-0073N523, Rev 15, wnich had 20 pages of revised details attached. Due to the volume of changes, the required configuration was difficult to understand.

DCR Procedure QFP3 004CNS, Rev 2, does not specify a time f rame to incorporate changes. No apparent discrepancies between the assembly and the drawing as modifled by the DCR were found.

C. The " process control" package for this plenum contained only the 7

drawing and the OCR. The Senior QA Engineer indicated that it should contain a sheet specifying the welding procedure, al though there is no written requirement.

D. When asked how the welder knew what welding procedure to use on the plenum, the supervisor said that the welder walks up and either knows what procedure to use, or he doesn't. If he knows what to use, he uses it. If he doesn't know, he asks his supervisor.

165

1 Each support package has a Sheet BSC-62-81, Rev 1, in it. This E.

sheet lists all procedures qualified for Catawba. Each welding procedure on the list has such things as base material type, base material thickness, welding process, joint type, etc shown. The welder (s) selects the welding procedure (s) to be used. After the support is completed, the supervisor checks off on the sheet the welding procedure (s) that was used.

t F. The welders did not stencil their work. The HVAC contractor's procedure requires that work be stenciled in those areas designated by the Project Welding Supervisor. No areas have been designated.

There is no Code requirenent (AWS 01.1) to stencil welds. Either the supervisor or the welder (s) list the welder (s) on "Ductwork Hanger Log Sheet." This log sheet is kept by the supervisor. The supervisor indicated that the log sheet, even though i t is a part of a formal procedure, is not a permanent QC/QA record, and he has never turned any in to the office. This log sheet is required by Procedure AFF-CNS 5 003, Rev 1. The procedure does not indicate the disposi tion of the log, and the Senior QA Engineer confi rmed that it was not a part of the permanent record. He also confirmed that there is no permanent record showing which welders or procedures were used on a suoport.

G. The supervisor indicated that QC checked each welder's " rods"

about once each week. The Senior QA Engineer said that filler material was checked on a surveillance basis, and there is no written requirement. There is a form (QC/QA 116, Rev 1) used to
  • documen t the inspection.

H. Procedure QCl 9 001 CNS, Rev 0, (Visual inspection of Welds) was reviewed and determined that this procedure allows 1/32" undercut on material greater than 5/32" thick. This does not meet the AWS 01.1 Code requirement.

1. The QC inspector's copy of QCl-10.002 CNS, Rev 0, (Seismic Hanger installation) was reviewed, and no apparent problems were found.

166

J. The QC inspector was asked that since the welders don' t mark their work and the welding procedure is not specified or recorded by individual welds, how did he know that the proper procedure was used on the weld and that the welder making that weld was qualified. He indicated that it was not a problem, that he just knew. The Senior QA Engineer indicated that this inspection was done on a surveillance basis.

K. Procedure CNS-007, Rev 0, (Welder Quali fication Log) was reviewed.

This procedure is designed to meet the 00-day requalification require-ment of ASME IX and appeared adequate.

L. A log is published monthly to show which welders are qualified on which procedures. This log is not a controlled document. As this log is not controlled, it is used to assign qualified welders to production welds and is subject to change; the distinct possibility exists to assign an unqualified welder to a job.

Ill. Conclusions A. Welding procedures and welders are qualified, but the program to control thei r use in the field needs modification.

I B. There are necessary functions that need to be performed; and V

these functions are being performed, but are not formalized in a procedure.

C. Procedures need to be reviewed for technical adequacy (i.e., do they meet the Code?).

D. Training should be performed so that welders know to which procedures they are working and where to find the requirements.

OBSERVATION OF BASEPLATE GROUTING

l. Scooe Conducted a brief review of quality and non quality baseplate grouting.

II. Observations A. The first two plates were quality related, and quality control was present.

B. The mixing water was measured by a painted line on the inside of a bucket.

C. The grout was Gifford-Hill Supreme, a non-shrink grout, of which a full sack was used in each batch.

D. An electric hand mixer was timed for 5 minutes. (The mixing time required was 4 to 5 minutes).

E. The inspector took the mixed grout temperature and recorded 78 F.

F. The area to be grouted had been wet and covered in burlao.

G. The area was inspected and released for grouting by the inspector, i

H. The grout was placed from one corner, and the entraoped air was removed.

l. The placea grout was dressed, and the crew moved on to the second baseplate.

J. The last two baseplates were non quali ty.

168

K. The difference between quality and non quality grouting was the inspection; craf t action was the same.

111. Conclusion The baseplate grouting operation for both quality and non-quality activi ties is meeting the program established and the effected performance objectives.

OBSERVATION OF HANGER INSPECTION

1. Scoce Observed the final QC inspection of Hangers 1-R-FW-87 and 2-A-YC-3163 II. Observations A. The hanger document packages had all the required information needed to perform the final inspection, including applicable variation notices, nonconforming i tem reports, supplementing typical drawings ,

and baseplate epoxy report.

B. The inspector cited correctly the applicable procedure as M-51.

C. The inspector verifed that he had the correct drawing revisions by comparing them wi th those identified on Form M-51B.

D. The inspector verified all the dimensions shown on the hanger sketches and the correct material and size. The inspector was generally familiar with allowed tolerances but sometimes checked with a QA process control :echnician (our escort) for seccifics.

For example, on Hanger 2-A-YC-3163, the inspector did not recall "the latest thing they told us" on the tolerances for the "W" and "C-C" dimens ions. The QA technician provided the information, and the inspector stated that anything in doubt would be verified correct by checking the procedure, specification, or information f rom hi s supervisor.

E. Sufficient thread engagement was questionable on one of the nuts on Hanger 1-R-FW-87 The inspector stated that he could barely get a fingernail in part of a thread, so it was ok. He stated that no one said you had to be able to feel a thread the entire circum-ference of the anchor bolt. CP-115, Section 1F, states, "the anchor 170

to be torqued has at least a full nut engagement after torquing."

f Subsequent evaluation by the QA hanger group determined that the engagement was marginal but acceptable.

F. While attempting to verify that the welds were in the correct posi tion on Hanger 1-R-FW-87, the inspector became confused wi th the weld symbols on the hanger sketch and stated, "I don't know.

I'm not much of a weld inspector." He stated that the only reason they verified weld locations was to be sure that bench fabricated hangers were installed in the correct orientation. The inspector and the QA technician (escort) subsequently agreed that the welds were in the correct locations. Further checking with the QA hanger group verified the welds were positioned correctly.

G. Bearing surfaces of expansion anchor washer surfaces were visually inspected.

H. The inspector veri fied minimum torque on Hanger 2-A-YC-3163 anchor nuts. He stated that torquing was not checked at installation but at final inspection. This agrees with Procedure M-52.

1. Torque was checked at 20 ft-lb with a torque wrench set correctly with an attached sticker indicating calibration was current. The QA hanger group verified that this was the correct to rq ue.
2. The torque inspection resulted in three of four plate nuts tightening further during inspection, toraue being applied at minimum torque (20 ft-lb). One of there three moved significantly (more than 1/2 turn) .

3 The inspector tightened all the loose nuts to minimum torque while explaining that when they found loose nuts, they were instructed to stop, allowing the craft to correct the discrepancy.

He further stated that he believed i t was the common practice for the inspector to go ahead and tighten the nuts.

171

4. When asked how he knew how much torque to apply, the inspector stated that he did this so much that he just knew (the "12" in the expansion anchor identification HN1240 identified the amount of torque). Subsequent checking with the QA hanger group verified that 20 ft-lb was the correct torque.
  1. ~ The welds on item 3 (plate) of 2-A-YC-3163 were incorrectly positioned.

'l.,

x' The-inspector noted this and noted the discrepancy on Form M-51c for correction.

J. Several of the tolerances which the inspector cited without consulting the procedure were recorded and later verified with the QA hanger group.

Ill. Conclusions inspectors sometimes perform torquing on expansion anchor nuts which are found insufficiently torqued at the time of inspection rather than having the craft correct the discrepancy for subsequent reinspection.

172

OBSERVATION OF CONCRETE EXPANSION AllCHOR INSTALLATION

1. Scoce Observed two powerhouse mecpanics (hangers) installing two sleeve-type concrete expansion anchors in Unit 1 Auxiliary Building Penetration Room at Elevation 577 The general foreman and foreman for this area were present during the observation. Approximately 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> was used for observation.

II. Observations The initial anchor Installation to be observed did not occur. The A.

hanger could not be installed to meet Design requirements. The problem was communicated to the Hanger Construction Engineering group. The hanger had previously been pre-checked and ok'd for installation.

B. The next anchor installation was for a two-anchor plate to be mounted to the ceiling. The plate had a strut attached to it.

C. The workers had located the anchors per the hanger sketch using l

the piping as the reference. .

D. Due to small size and spacing of these anchors, no ultrasonic check for embedded rebar was deemed necessary.

E. The holes were drilled to an approximate depth of 3 1/h" inches.

The workers used the length of the drill bit to gage the death and did not measure. Minimum depth required was 2".

F. Wi th the holes in an overhead position, no specific action was taken to clean the holes.

173

G. Anchors were installed by threading nut onto bolt and tapping on nut with a hammer to set the anchor into the drilled hole.

H. Nuts were tightened snug against plate. QC inspector was not present. Calibrated torquing will be done when the QC inspector is present for documentation.

I. While in the area, an anchor hanger was observed. This particular hanger was installed as a QA-2 hanger which did not require visual welding inspection. The hanger has been re-classified as a QA-4 hanger which requires visual weld inspection; however, some of the welds are now inaccessible. The workers did not know whether or not the hanger could be accepted as installed or if the hanger would have to be removed and re-installed.

J. Checked records and verified the two workers were trained to install anchors.

K. Returned to area later and installation had been completed.

Epoxy had been applied, and anchors torqued. Wrench used to torque was identified as CA-160. Follow-up with QA/QC showed the wrench to be currently in its calibration.

L. Area where expansion anchors were being installed was extremely congested with piping, valves and other hangers and restraints.

The congestion appears to make quali ty installation difficult to do.

Ill. Conclusions A. Vorkers and supervisors installing concrete expansion anchors are trained and knowledgeable of installation requirements.

B. Areas where hangers are being installed are extremely congested, making quality installations difficult.

C. Changing Design criteria provides potential for extensive craft rework.

174

OBSERVATION OF PRESSURE TEST

l. Scoce Observed a pressure test performed for shutdown 2018 7626. (RN System 100 + feet of 3" pipe.)
11. Observations A. The N-1A (hydro test form) listed the section low point as Elevation 578. The actual low point was approximately 602.

The N-1A was not corrected.

B. The N-1A indicated a relief valve set to 234-236 psig was required. The relief valve supplied by the test director was set at 238 psig. The maximum test pressure was 233 psig.

C. The QC inspector pointed out to the test director that he had marked minimum test pressure as not applicable. The minimum test oressure was then calculated by the director to be 210.8 psig, and the form corrected.

D. The temporary hoses being used to supply water to the system were leaking. The water was soaking a carton of filters identifiec as "AHU-3 1131-CNS." This was pointed out to the test director, I but the situation was not corrected.

E. Water from the hose leak was also running through an air duct sleeve to the elevation below creating a slick floor. During the observation two different people came to the test director to comolain. A utility person was stationed on the floor below to clean up the water. The hose connection was tightened to slow down the leak.

175

F. The test director left the test area to have the relief valve reset to 232 psig, and the range corrected on the N-1A. Two craft personnel and two inspectors waited in the area for him to return. The wait was approximately 20 to 25 minutes.

G. Further checking concerning proper system low point revealed di rection had been given the systems people in a letter dated 12-14-78. The letter stated the provisions would be added to the specification. Nothing could be located in the spec by this observer, nor by the systems engineer.

Ill. Conclusions A. Appropriate preparation for testing operations is not being performed prior to going to the field.

B. Direction is being taken from Design in letters which are not controlled.

C. Appropriate attention is not being given to stored materials and surrounding areas affected by leaking water.

i l

REVIEW OF PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE PROGRAM

l. Scooe Reviewed the program for identification and performance of preventive maintenance during the construction process. The preventive maintenance program (PM) is implemented by Procedure P-3, and PM tasks and frequencies are identified by the Construction Engineering group on Form P-3A. Forms P-3A are initiated when a component arrives for storage and :re reviewed as necessary when the component is installed.
11. Observations A. A review of selected P-3A records maintained by QA revealed that all identified PM tasks on QA condition equipment are performed at the identified frequencies.

B. A reviewton to P-3A # M-94 (Reactor Cavity Manipulator Bridge Crane) changed the classification from " Nuclear Safety Related" to "Non QA Condition." The QA records reflected cancellation of the PM item.

1. QA reflected the status as cancelled because inspection of the PM activity is not required for non-QA condition equipment; thus, QA had no responsibility to assure PM compliance once the classification was downgraded.
2. A check of the Safety Related Structures. Systems and Comoonents Manual confirmed a non-safety related (QA Condition 1) status.

3 Additional examination of non-QA condition records reflected that PM M-c4 has been acccmplished at the prescribed frequency. Checks of additional non-QA condition PM tasks revealed accomplishment at the specified frequencies.

C. QA records reflected that P-3A #E-125 (KC Pump Motor 1B1) was can-celled by Construction Engineering on 5-19-82.

177

1. The stated reason by Construction Engineering for the cancella-tion was that once the power to the motor is terminated and the pump is coupled, it is turned over to the Construction " Systems" group for flush and hydro, and then it is turned over in short order to the Nuclear Production Department (NPD), who assumes PM responsibility. The cancellation Form P-38 stated the reason was that the pump and motor are coupled.
2. The KC System has not been turned over to NPD, and NPD performs no PM tasks on the equipment.

3 The Systems group runs the pumps periodically, as requested by NPD, for chemical mixing, but performs no PM tasks on the equip-ment.

4. No scheduled maintenance activities have been performed on 1B1 KC Pump Motor since cancellation of the P-3A Form.

5 QA reviewed the cancellation of the PM tasks. Asked why the PM was cancelled, the reviewer stated that " Construction Engi-neering determines the requirements--they can do anything they want to."

D. QA records reflected that P-3A #E-133 (Centrifugal Charging Pump IB Motor) was cancelled by Construction Engineering on 1-9-81. Previously identified PM tasks included rotati'g the shaft, checking the space heaters energized, periodic resistance checks and checking the oil level.

1. The same reason as stated in C.1 above was given for cancellation.
2. The NV System has not been turned over to NPD, and NPD performs no PM tssks on the equipment.

3 The Systems group performs no PM tasks on the equipmen:.

170

4. No scheduled maintenance activities have been performed on the equipment since cancellation of the P-3A Form.

5 QA reviewed the cancellation as in D.5, above.

E. The testing engineer stated that he is supposed to get copies of P-3A Forms when the systems are turned over to his group so that h'e can designate any PM items which are to continue. He stated that he has seen very few of the forms.

F. The wording of CP-411, Section 4.2.4 ("When a P-3A appears no longer appropriate because of T/0 to Systems...") implies preventive main-tenance ends at that point.

111. Conclusions Scheduled preventive maintenance activities on installed equipment does not always continue through the enti re period of Construction Department control.

OBSERVATION OF CONCRETE OPERATION

1. Scope Observed the batching, sampling, testing and placing operations for concrete assigned to the steam generator enclosure wall, Pour No.

4958 in the No. 2 Reactor Building from 8 am till 11: 30 am on 9/28/82. A visit was made to the civil section of site construction engineering, also,

11. Observations A. One Level I civil-structural inspector and one operator were present at the batch plant.

B. One truck had been loaded out before observation started.

C. Three consecutive loads were batched out--each had the required mix--actual weights on a printed-out ticket, signed by the QC insoector releasing the trucks for delivery.

D. Three of the four truck loads (8 c.y. per load) were rejected at the test point af ter the addition of Melment changed the batch-out Design mix from an allowable slump of under 4" to an unacceptable

! slump of more than 8".

E. The QC inspector was questioned about inspection and Testing, Part 4.3 of Procedure M-2, inspection of Design Concrete. He said that a mixer performance was performed on both the batch plant mixer and on truck No. 37 Upon checking on records at the concrete lab, they showed the main batch plant mixer passed the test, but truck No. 37 failed.

180

F. One QC supervisor, one Level I and one Level 11 inspector (civil-structural) were present at the discharge point (sampling and testing).

G. When the first truck load of concrete (8 c.y.) arrived, Melment L10-A was placed in the truck at the discharge point in accordance with the procedure (88 OZ/cy). Concrete met the Construction procedure before Melment was added to mix (less than 4" slump, 4-8 percent air content allowable), but failed criteria after Melment.was added (greater than 8" slump)..

H. QC supervisor produced Construction Procedure 461 as the control -

procedure for this concrete pour. CP-461 relates to repair of honeycomb areas. Pour No. 4958 was a first-time pour. Procedure 601 was the correct Construction procedure for this concrete pour,

l. The ladder allowing access to the area where concrete pours were being made had no cage or railing around the top portion of the ladder. The top of the ladder was 50 plus or minus feet from the ground floor of Reactor Building Uni t 2.

J. Procedure 461 (a controlled document) in the civil section of Construction Engineering had been altered by marking through parts of the typed materials. Also, additional comments had been written in ink at several places in this procedure. Altered controlled documents could cause confusion when referenced by individuals in the civil section.

K. At the pour location, there were six utility personnel plus utility supervisor, two builders plus builcer supervisor, two concrete finishers and one QC inspector during concrete placement at the form.

L. The rebar placement inside the form was somewhat irregular.

The builder supervisor stated that rebar previously embedded 181

M. Drawings used'by the buidder supervisor to install the rebar and embedments were verified with Document Control that all ware of ,

the current revision.

N. In talking with the concrete finishet, he..expeds ed.Aconcerns about productivity'in grouting work being hampered by lack; of paperwork ,

to release hangers for grouting. He stated he often went into areas that looked like they.had many (40 to 50) hangers ready to -

grout, but would only ? lave' paperwork fyr a few (2 to 3). He was  !.

concerned about inaccessibiJ i tyl -di ffi cul ty in transporting grout materials to areas of work. A general comment was made that there1 were too many people on site in the craft organization.

' 0F UNIT 2 PRESSURIZER CAVITY ENCLOSURE WALL b

!. Scoce Observed three utility personnel plus foreman, two buliders, one area engineer and one QC inspector making final adjustments to release bottom lift of pressurizer cavity enclosure wall for concrete placement. Work was identified by Placement No. Ao60.

11. Observations A. The previous day, the evaluation team was advised this pour would begin the morning of 9-30-82. When we arrived at the form at 9 am, the pre-pour inspection sheet had not been signed by QC.

B., Several areas had rebar too close to the form.

C. Final cleaning of the form was in progress.

D. QC was questioning the correctness of splice lengths on horizontal rebar. The builders had installed the rebar per verbal information t

l from the area engineer who had checked with Design. No cri teria was specified on the rebar drawings,and no variation notice was written to authorize the splice lengths used. The area engineer was measur ing the splice lengths on the horizontal bars to give information to Design such that a decision could be made by Design as to adequacy of installation. The area engineer did initiate a VN to verify splice lengths, and QC signed pre-pour.

E. No pour grade was marked on the form, and the utili ty foreman did not know where the top of concrete would be. He stated he would get the information from the builder foreman.

184

F. The utility foreman had not identified access points for placing concrete in the more heavily congested areas.

Ill. Conclusions A. The concrete pour was not ready for placement.

B. The builders had Installed rebar without knowing splice length criteria.

C. The builders had installed rebar not in accordance with clearance criteria.

D. The utility personnel had not planned their placement activi ties.

E. The area engineer was providing Design criteria information without documenting the information.

1 OBSERVATION OF MATERIAL CONTROL

i. Scope Review warehouse and storeyard storage activities relating to electrical equipment. i
11. Observation A. Identification of material and equipment, both safety and non-safety, within warehouses was by pap.. stick-on tag with non permanent adhe-sive. Tags on numerous items were either loose or had fallen off.

Warehouseman stated there was no standard procedure for tagging or Identifying equipment in the warehouse.

B. A non-safety transformer that was damaged was stored in middle of the aisle without any identification tag. The warehouseman was able to find the recel*/ing paper by leafing through the record book. There was no damage notation on record.

C. Safety and non-safety equipment war, stored together. There is poten-tial for issuing wrong equipment.

D. Access to warehouse is not secure from adjacent termination fabrication shop. Material on second and third shelves on bin separating the shop and warehouse is directly accessible to shop personnel.

E. Access to warehouse is not secure from adjacent maintenance office area.

Double doors were unlocked and open allowing direct access to storage areas.

F. Warehouseman responsible for receiving equipment in one warehouse stated he did not know of any procedures relating to his work.

Quality Assurance Procedures P-1 and P-2 are directly applicable to receiving and storage activities.

186

G. Same warehouseman indicated he had been in his job three years and had not received any formal training in that job. Absence of knowledge of procedures Indicates need for training.

H. Cable reels were stored in storage yard with cable ends open and unprotected. Open cable ends allow moisture to enter, causing cable deterioration and possible failure in service.

l. Spare generator circuit breaker stored in yard had its control cabinet open where parts had been robbed. Disconnected tubing connections and loose parts were, therefore, exposed to the open envi ronment. This indicated lack of storage control, maintenance and surveillance and could lead to deterioration of equipment.

J. Warehouse supervisor indicated he needed training and information on handling hazardous materials.

Ill. Conclusions A. The procedures for storage of material are not always followed.

B. Procedures for identification of equipment in storage are not available.

C. Knowledge of storage procedures appear to be lacking.

D. Training of personnel does not appear adequate.

E. Procedures for identification of damaged equipment within the ware-house do not appear to exist.

F. Control of access to warehouse appears to be weak.
