a class-Q' cable will no't be spliced.

MR. HANZE: I have no-knowledge of that.

17 INVESTIGATOR: John,:in working-out on the I 18 site and in the observations and experience that you have 18

, had, 'have you come across any ' situations,- or know of any y 20 -

situations, where cables have been properly terminated, 21' and then brought off by QC, signed off by the c' raft,

- 221 and-thenithey come back later and find it'has been de- -1

.'l 23' terminated, and it may not be connected, or it may have been l 24 re-terminated, but not done in as neat of a fashion as

_t m.'..e

6 12-191 MR. HANZE: Will you shut that thing off for 2 a minutes.

3 INVESTIGATOR: Sure. (Tape recorder stopped) 4 INVESTIGA' TOR: .While we were off tape, Mr.

~

l 5 Hanze requested that.I clarify my question, and in 6

summary his response is that he has no firsthand knowledge, 7

having witnessed any determinations beig made by anyone 8

other than urmar proper documentation and proper procedure.

9 Is that correct, Mr.~Hanze?

10 MR. HANZE: That is right. Right.

11 INVESTIGATOR: John, we have an allegation 12 concerning the type of insulating material used on some

(]) 13 of the termingtions, and I am afraid probably it happened 14 prior to your coming on board, because you came on board 15 in August of 1981. But there was a period of time which 16 we have established by fact, that they were using -- the 17 electricians were using a material called Scotch Fill 2200 18 on the terminations, and it was found that this material, 19 due to the high temperatures that we have out here in the M

desert, in Palo Verde, that this material was melting and 21 secreting'its fluids down onto the cabling. '

22 And then they changed approximately a year ago 23 to a material called 130C. Are you familiar with what 24 I am talking about?

U MR. HANZE: No. Here again, basically -- I have 1 <

12-20 1 heard of it, but I am not basically familiar with it.

O 2 INVESTIGATOR: John, you car:e on board here as 3

3 an older person compared to a lot of the young men that 4 are here, an'd have a lot of' years of experience in d

~

5 construction work. Ilowever , this was your first quality 6 control-type position,, is that correct?

7 MR. !!ANZE : That is correct.

8 N

INVESTIGATOR: Will you tell us what type of -

j 9 training you were given when you came aboard in August of 10 1981? 1 11 MR. IIANZE: I was taken through by George Palmara, J

~

12 and given training for approximately six weeks in. race ways. p 8

O 13 And I was taken over by cable pull, and worked under Bill y s

14 -

Burdick for approximately six weeks in cable pull.

15 INVESTIGATOR: Did you have a period of time I 16 4

where you were given documentation procedures to study? l 17 MR. IIANZE: Yes. During this period, we basically [

i 18 worked mornings in'the field, and afternoons we would work I 19 i

in the office meeting (inaudible) procedures, j 20 INVESTIGATOR: In your opinion, did you feel 21 4 that by the time you were released to work on your own that -

=

22 you had been adequately trained?

23 i MR. IIANZE : I basically feel I was adequately { i 24 trained in my job.  ?

O 25

=

INVESTIGATOR: Did you have any kind of seminars, i

y 5

A

8 12-211 or meetings, or updating, or refresher courses, or anything O 2 of that nature that you got on board?

-3 -

MR. HANZE: Yeah, we have had updating on like 4 DCPs, SWPs , a .id start-up work.

l 5 -INVESTIGATOR: John, would you explain. A lot 6 ofipeople. don't understand what DCP stands for?

7 MR. HANZE: Design change procedures.

8 INVESTIGATOR: And the other you gave us?

9 MR. HANZE: Start up work permit.

10 INVESTIGATOR: That SWP is start-up work permit.

11 John, you have been out in the field for approximately a 12 year here. Do you feel that you, as an inspector, are 13 able to operate freely without any intimidation from the 14 crafts or from the craft management?

15 MR. IRNZE: Yes.

16 INVESTIGATOR: You have no -- you have suffered 17 no bad experiences when you have tried to enforce -- I don't 18 know if you have ever hung any red tags.

19 MR. HANZE: None.

20 1NVESTIGATOR: You feel your relationship, then,

.1 with the crafts has been satisfactory?

a2 MR. HANZE: I do.

23 INVESTIGATOR: ' John, have you participated in 24 any hapotic (phonetic) testing?

~

4 Have you been involved in.any installations like that?

5 MR. HANZE: (Inaudible)'

6 INVESTIGATOR: The next issue I want to address, 7 John, is the situation where we have core drilling,.which 8' is frequently done in a plant like this where they have to' 9 make new penetrations.

10 MR. HANZE: I.have no experience in core drillings.

11 INVESTIGATOR: Do you know of any. situation where 12 there has'been core drilling, and they have accidentally 13 ' damaged the conduit?

14 MR. HANZE: No, I have no knowledge of that.

15 INVESTIGATOR: Where.they have drilled into the i

16 wall, and hit conduit.

17 MR..HANZE: No.

18 INVESTIGATOR: Wasn't there one --

19 INVESTIGATOR: (Inaudible) received information 20 that you might have possibly observed something that 21 occurred'down on the main steam building.
