O Dravo Corporation Docket No. 99900017/78-01 NOTICE OF DEVIATION Based on the results of an NRC inspection conducted on April 10-13, 1978, it appears that certain of your activities were not conducted in full accordance with NRC requirements as indicated below:
A. A Dravo corrective action response letter dated November 23, 1977, states in part with respect to item I.D.3.a.(1) of IE Report No. 77-01,
. . . The welding foremen have been instructed and trained to include all variables over which a welder can exercise control on the Weld Joint Data card before giving to the welders . . . ."
Contrary to the above, the inspector observed that all variables over which a welder can exercise control were not being included by the welding foremen on Weld Joint Data cards supplied to the welders, as illustrated by the following examples:
- 1. The Weld Joint Data card applicable to the gas tungsten arc welding operation on Weld B, Job No. 3002, Sketch 427, did not specify the required maximum interpass temperature, the required purge gas flow rate, polarity to be used or reference the method of initial and interpass cleaning to be used.
- 2. The Weld Joint Data card applicable to the gas tungsten arc welding operation en Weld E, Job No. 3000, Sketch 218, referenced two (2) unidentified shielding gas flow rates of 25-50 cfh and 0-10 cfh.
Examination of the applicable welding procedure specification, 1-1-W 6104-LS, Re/ision 6, showed three (3) stipulated argon flow rates, i.e. for the torch, for the hot wire feed device and for the inside purge. It was further noted that the flowmeter ,
l for the hot wire device had been removed from the equipment. !
B. l A Dravo corrective action response letter dated November 23, 1977, !
states in part with respect to item I.C.3.a.(1) of IE Report No. 77-02,
". . . Dravo will prepare a General Welding Specification on or before February 28, 1978, incorporating shop standards for all welding processes to be used for tacking . . . ."
Contrary to the above, the inspector was advised on April 12, 1978, that the general welding specification had not been finalized.

C. A Dravo corrective action response letter dated flovember 23, 1977, states in part with respect to item I.C.3.a.(3) of IE Repcrt No. 77-02,
". . . This item will be included in our audit check list of production activities by 3/31/ 78 . . . . "
Contrary to the above, the inspector was advised on April 12, 1978, that the item had not yet been included in an audit checklist of production activities.
D. Criterion IX of Appendix B to 10 CFR 50 states in part, " Measures shall be established to assure that special processes, including welding,
. . are controlled and accomplished . . . using qualified procedures Paragraph NA-4451 in the ASME Section III Code (1974 Edition) states in part, ". . . Measures shall be established to assure that processes including welding . . . are accomplished . . . using qualified proce-dures."
Contrary to the above, measures were not established with respect to certain welding power sources e.g. Hobart S/N 66773, which would assure conformance of amperage output with the requirements of applicable welding procedure specifications, in that:
- 1. No method or means of correlating dial settings with amperage output was at the work station.
- 2. The QA Manual does not specifically require welding foremen to perform any checks of electrical parameters used by welders relative to procedure requirements, nor is equipment assigned to them to perform such functions.
- 3. Procedure GWS-6, Revision 1, which defines requiremants for inde-pendent surveys of production welding operations by Welding Engineering, utilizes a random selection basis for operations witnessed and has no provisions to assure that all qualified welders are progressively surveyed to verify compliance to proce-dure requirements at a specified frequency.
- 4. Review of Welding Engineering survey records dating from June 1973, for a sample of twelve (12) welders taken from a qualified welders list, showed two (2) shielded metal arc welders who had never been surveyed. The inspector also observed two (2) additional welders, who were listed as qualified for all Dravo active processes, that had never been surveyed for any process, The inspector was informed that the latter two were actually welding foremen, for whom until recently it had been the Dravo practice to maintain welding qualifications.

E. A Dravo corrective action response letter dated November 23, 1977, states in part, with respect to item II.C.3.a.(1) of Report No. 77-02, "A manual revision will be made and issued prior to fiarch 31, 1978, which will clarify this commitment so as to allow recording of the information to occur anytime prior to final inspection."
Contrary to the above, a menual revision to clarify this ommitment was not issued prior to March 31, 1978.
F. A Dravo corrective action response letter dated November 23, 1977, states in part with respect to item II.C.3.a. (4) of IE Report No. 77-02,
. our QA Manual will be revised prior to March 31,1978, to include a requirement for the recording of the procedures and revision letters on the speci fic back-up shop documents . . . ."
Contrary to the above, the QA Manual was not revised prior to March 31, 1978, and the applicable revision to correct this deviation had not j been issued as of the date of this inspection.
G. A Dravo corrective action response letter dated November 23, 1977, states in part with respect to item II.C.3.a.(5) of IE Report No. 77-02,
. A new procedure will be written to specifically delineate this commitment. This procedure ES-DOC-3 will be written and implemented prior to 1/1/78. . . ."
Contrary to the above, a new procedure ES-DOC-3 was not written and implemented prior to 1/1/78 but was written on 4/10/78, over three (3) months later.
H. 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion IX, states in part, " Measures shall be established to assure that special processes, including welding, heat treating, and nondestructive testing are controlled . . . in accordance with applicable codes, standards, specifications, criteria and other special requirements."
Section V, Article 6, of the ASME Code, paras,raph T-630, states in part, "When using penetrant examination methods for nickel base alloys the penetrant materials shall be analyzed for sulfur content . . ..
The total sulfur content shall not exceed 1% by weight . . . . When examining austenitic stainless steels . . . . The total halogen content of the residue shall not exceed 1% by weight." ,
Contrary to the above, it cculd not be verified that the total sulfur and halogen content of the residue did not exceed 1% by weight for the penetrant materials used to examine nickel base alloys and austenitic stainless steels, in that, the containers used to dispense bulk penetrant materials contained a residue of an unknown substance.
