HOPE CREEK UNIT 1 INDEPENDENT DESIGN VERIFICATION PROGRAM REPORT DOCUMENTATION INSPECTION September 30, 1985 to October 3, 1985 1. BACKGROUND On April 11, 1985, the NRC staff approved the Program Plan (Revision 1) for the Independent Design Verification Program (IDVP) of Hope Creek Unit 1.

Sargent & Lundy Engineers (S&L) had been retained by the applicant, Public Service Electric and Gas Company (PSE&G), to perform the IDVP for the purpose of providing additional assurance that the design of the Hope Creek Generating Station meets FSAR commitments and NRC regulations through a review of the technical adequacy of selected systems and the design process, including both vertical and horizontal type reviews.

NRC inspection activities associated with the IDVP are as follows: a. An inspection at S&L with review work in progress to ensure that the program is implemented in accordance with the approved plan and also to ensure that the reviews are conducted in sufficient technical depth to achieve program objectives. (The report of this inspection (50-354/85-32) was forwarded to the Applicant on July 8, 1985 in a letter from B. K. Grimes (NRC) to R. (PSE&G)). b. An inspection at S&L following publication of the IDVP report to review back-up information to ensure that S&L's conclusions in the report are technically supported.

c. An inspection at the offices of the architect / engineer, Bechtel Power Corporation (BPC), to verify performance of any corrective actions resulting from the IDVP.

2. PURPOSE The purpose of this inspection was (1) to inspect back-up documentation for the IDVP report to ensure that the conclusions in the report are technically supported and (2) to verify that the items identified in NRC Inspection Report 50-354/85-32 were incorporated in the program or otherwise satisfactorily resolved.

3. NRC INSPECTION TEAM The inspection was conducted by NRC personnel, with support of contractor personnel as follows:

PERSONNEL CONTACTED A large number of S&L personnel were contacted during the inspection. The following is a brief list of those key personnel: Name Position W. G. Hegener Director of Engineering P. Wattelet Project Director H. S. Taylor Chairman, Internal Review Conmittee W. A. Bloss IDVP Project Manager In addition, the individual NRC Team members contacted the S&L lead discipline engineer in each of the technical discipline areas. The S&L lead discipline engineers arranged for contact with the specific S&L reviewers at the request of the NRC Team members.

, 5. INSPECTION SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS In order to assess the validity of the conclusions reached by S&L regarding the design process employed by BPC in the design of HCGS, the documentation developed by S&L during the conduct of the IDVP was inspected to ensure that their findings were technically supported.

During the inspection, the NRC team reviewed the background documentation used by S&L as the basis of their findings. This documentation consisted primarily of BPC calculations, specifications and drawings. The team also reviewed the l S&L completed checklists to assess the depth and completeness of the review and auditability of the IDVP.

The inspection revealed that the documentation was auditable in that the team was able to trace the technical findings back to the source documents. In addition, the review of the completed checksheets and the types of detailed findings that were discovered by S&L gave the team a good insight by which to judge the comprehensiveness of the review.

The inspection team concluded that the S&L findings were technically supported and that the IDVP was formally documented and conducted in sufficient technical depth to support meaningful conclusions as the adequacy of the design and design process at the Hope Creek Generating Station Unit I.

6. STATUS OF ITEMS IDENTIFIED IN PREVIOUS INSPECTIONS Status of NRC Inspection Items from Inspection Report 50-354/85-32 dated May 8-10, and June 4-6, 1985 are given in Attachment I to this report.

Attachment 1 Status of NRC Inspection Items from Inspection 50-354/85-32 Original Comment / Obs. No. Subject Status Resolution 1 Mechanical Systems 1.1- SACS Hydraulic Closed BPC indicated that Transient backup documentation in Analysis support of design work by the subcontractor may not be available. An OR questioning this design process should be initiated.

An Observation Report was issued.

1.2 SACS Hydraulic Closed This report referenced Transient a computer code as a Analysis certified BPC program.

S&L should verify the code as appropriate.

Review of this program was found to be unnecessary. The entire Transient Analysis was superceded as a design basis document by a full-size model and subsequent hydraulic tests performed for BPC by a subcontractor. S&L reviewed these test results.

1.3 NPSH Calculation Closed Calculation BJ-1(Q) for KPCI Pump indicated little margin (2.5 feet of water) over the required NPSH.

There was a concern as to whether the " operating pressure" from a GE diagram was actually minimum pressure. S&L should review this matter.

S&L investigated this problem and determined

.
.

Attachment 1 (Continued) Original Comment / Obs. No. Subject Status Resolution that no problem existed because vacuum breakers were installed.

Hence the GE diagram showed minimum pressure.

1.4 - Design Adequacy Closed The checklist did Specification not provide adequate space for reviewer's comments, thereby making an audit of backup information supporting the final report difficult.

S&L agreed to revise the checklists.

The checklists were revised, and were found acceptable.

2 Mechanical Components 2.1 Floor Response Closed Piping calculation C-1750-20 referenced calculation 131-2 for enveloped floor response spectra.

Calculation 131-2 did not list the result of the enveloping process which was manually performed by the reviewer.

A POR should have been issued.

S&L reviewed this matter and PORs were written where appropriate.

2.2 Calculation Errors Closed The S&L reviewer corrected an error in a nozzle load calculation and concluded that nozzle design was still within allowables. The reviewer did not note this discrepancy on the

An appropriate POR was initiated.

2.3 Inconsistencies Closed Piping schedules in BPC in Piping design spec M-068 (line Documentation list) were inconsistent with piping isometrics.

Review of documentation was required for confirma-tion of formal transfer of information within the proj ect.

A review of this documentation was per-formed and formal methods for transfer of information were confirmed.

Field Change Closed Review of FCNs should Review Plans address problem statements, inter-disciplinary positions, and evaluation of judg-ments to eradicate

minor problems.

Subsequent S&L checklists and ors indicate the review of FCNs is sufficient.

3 Structural Discipline 3.1 Max. Rebar Spacing Closed Rebar spacing was seen to of R. B. Basemat . exceed maximum per ACI 318-71. The S&L review committee indicated that the capacity of the mat was structurally adequate. S&L should pursue this matter as a design process concern.

Attachment 1 (Continued) Original Comment / Obs. No. Subject Status Resolution S&L reviewed the mat analysis questions with regard to design process concerns and determined that the FSAR commitments had not been violated and therefore no design process concerns existed.

3.2 Reactor Building Closed The basemat design Basemat did not include torus uplift loading to deter-mine moments and shears.

Anchorage and strength of supporting structures were therefore questioned.

S&L should address this issue in their review.

These issues were reviewed by S&L. Based on additional information provided to S&L by BPC, S&L determined the design is adequate.

4 Electrical Power 4.1 Unj ustified Closed No justification was Assumption provided in calculation 17A(Q) for use of an assumed conductor temperature of 50 degrees C, in variance with the BPC design guide. This was not initially addressed in S&L's review.

S&L subsequently reviewed the matter and an OR was issued by S&L.

4.2 Panel Separation Closed S&L electrical separation Criteria Evaluation checksheets do not account for " specific" separation criteria relative to internal components in CE panels.

The item was incorporated in the checksheets and an OR was subsequently prepared.

5.1 Setpoint Closed Review plans do not Compliance with contain a requirement Safety Limit to evaluate setpoint calculations, including tolerance and calculation errors against established limits. S&L should address this in their review.

S&L subsequently performed a review and an OR was written on the subject of setpoint_ calculations.

5.2 Design Change Closed Design changes (FCNs Documents- and DCNs) have not been reviewed. S&L should review a representative sample of FCNs and DCNs.

A sample of FCNs and DCNs were selected for review. , t f L ! 8 l i l
