APPENDIX A

WESTINGHOUSE RESPONSE TO NOTICE OF VIOLA TIONS

A.1 The following information is provided in response to Non-Cited Violation as reported in07100708/2005202 failure to comply with requirements for procurement of maintenanceservices for the Patriot shipping package (USA.9292/AF-85).

A.L.a ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF THE VIOLATION

The violation is correct as stated in the Safety Inspection Report and ComplianceInspection report 07100708/2005202. Westinghouse identified the noncompliance earlyin October 2005 and immediately stopped work at the vendor site. A meeting wasconvened that included representatives from Westinghouse quality assurance, supplierquality, transportation, shipping container licensing and compliance, and productengineering to ascertain the nature and extent the noncompliance and establish a plan ofcorrective actions.

A.L.b REASON FOR THE VIOLATION

The non-cited violation identifies maintenance being performed on the PATRIOT modelpackage, Package Identification USA/9292/AF-85, licensed under NRC Docket 71-9292.The bill of material on the license drawing, Dwg. No. 10014E28, identifies the safetyrelated components for the package. Maintenance work being performed forWestinghouse by the supplier included cutting and welding the inner container lid endcap. Both the inner container lid and end cap are designated as safety related componentsin the bill of material. The Westinghouse procedure for the control of purchased itemsand services (WEC 6.1) defines the responsibilities and identifies requirements forprocurement of shipping packages subject to approval by the U.S. Department ofTransportation (DOT) or U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for thetransportation of radioactive material. WEC 6.1 defines specific responsibilitiesassociated with procurement of items or services that includes identifying the item orservice as safety-related.

Westinghouse initiated a purchase requisition that requested a vendor to provide servicesto chemically clean and paint PATRIOT inner containers, which included the cutting andwelding the lid end caps. The requisition incorrectly identified the services to be "non-QA". This "non-QA" designation established a release strategy that did not includeappropriate quality approvals for services that are safety-related. As a resultWestinghouse issued a purchase order to the vendor that did not include appropriatequality requirements.

A.I.c CORRECTIVE ACTION TAKEN AND RESULTS ACHIEVED

When Westinghouse realized that the vendor providing the services was not a QualifiedSupplier work was stopped and initiated a corrective action plan. The initial correctiveaction plan included qualifying the supplier, the process, the welders, and the workalready completed.

After reviewing the vendor processes and Westinghouse quality requirements it wasdecided that rather than qualify the supplier Westinghouse would follow approvedprocedures for the dedication of commercial grade items that are intended for use innuclear safety-related applications. Westinghouse issued a commercial dedicationinstruction (CDI) for maintenance performed on the Patriot inner container by thesupplier. In accordance with the commercial dedication procedure Westinghouse isresponsible for executing the CDI to dedicate packaging as a safety-related item. Thededication is based on special inspections and tests to verify critical characteristicsidentified by the responsible engineer. The critical characteristics include productidentification verification, inner package skin integrity, inner package structural weldintegrity, channel weld integrity, lid end repair weld integrity, surface finish, lid/basefunctionality, dimensional stability, and process verification.

Westinghouse worked generated a Manufacturing and Quality Plan (MAQP) for therefurbishment of the Patriot inner containers. The MAQP provides specific guidance forcleaning, acid stripping, welding, weld inspection, and powder coat painting servicesprovided by the vendor. Westinghouse developed procedures with input from the vendorfor the weld process, for welder qualification and specifically welding the lid end cap. Aprocess routing was developed to documents the performance of required maintenanceand inspections. The process routing identified inspection hold points during themaintenance.

Westinghouse procured the services of a qualified supplier to qualify the welders and thewelding process. This vendor certified that test specimens were prepared, joined andexamined in accordance with the requirements of American National Standard, AWSD9.IM/D9.1:2000, Sheet Metal Welding Code (ASW D9.1). Furthermore they providedprocedure qualification test record (ASW D9.1, Annex E) and welding procedurespecifications (ASW D9. 1, Annex D) to certify the welding process used to repair the lidend cap. Welder and welding operator qualification test records (ASW D9. 1, Annex F)were also provided by QIS for each of the welders who performed the welding.

Magnetic particle testing (MT) was used for nondestructive examination of all weldingthat was performed on the inner containers prior to issuing the CDI. The MT wascompleted on December 01, 2005. MT was performed using dry powder per ASW D9. 1to detect surface discontinuities in the sheet metal welds of the lid end cap. All weldsinspected were found to be acceptable. No defects were found at the time of theinspection.

A.1.d ACTIONS TO PREVENT RECURRENCE

Westinghouse initiated a corrective actions process (CAPS) issue report (05286-C003)on October 13, 2005. The CAPS program formally ascertains the cause of the problemthrough an apparent cause analysis, and also requires short and long term correctiveactions as well as actions to prevent recurrence. A project team has already beenestablished to assess the current practices for procuring services and components forshipping containers. The CAPS process and project team's review may result inrevisions to procedures or training to ensure that the quality requirements associated withprocuring services or items for shipping packages are correctly identified.

A.1.e DATE WHEN FULL COMPLIANCE WILL BE ACHIEVED

First note that no shipments have been made with packages that did comply with theCertificate of Compliance (CoC). Compliance was achieved with regard to t hemaintenance activities November 15, 2005 when the Commercial Dedication Instructionwas issued. Full compliance for the Patriot shipping packages will be achieved when therevised CoC is issued, and the anticipated date is prior to January 23, 2006.

(Continued)Westinghouse created Issue Report # 05-286-C003, submitted 10/13/05, identifying that (1) the PO was issuedwithout the required QC approval, (2) the vendor was not on the approved supplier list, (3) the vendor's weldinghad not been done under a Westinghouse program, and (4) an inspection program had not been established forthe vendor welding.

Q. C. Deviation or Notification (QCDN) No. 65309, dated 10/17/05, identified the defective condition as: The endsof the BWR Inner Box were welded back in place and painted without the weld being inspected. The requirementwas cited as: Welds on safety-related parts are to be inspected to PS-WELD1 0, Rev. 01. The QCDN identified19 units in the condition, and instructed that the completed boxes be inspected for weld defects. The QCDNappeared to indicate the welds had subsequently been inspected by Westinghouse, but the NRC inspector wasinformed that some of the welds had been painted over at the time of the inspection.

The above Issue Report and QCDN document that Westinghouse had identified deviations and initiated correctiveactions prior to the start of the NRC inspection. However, the team noted that the refurbishment activities wereongoing at the time of the inspection and the team considered that the actions that had been taken did not appearto be adequate to resolve the issue for either the completed units or the ongoing work. Westinghouseacknowledged during discussions with the team that additional actions would be necessary.

The purchase order to Chem-Strip specified that welding was to meet Westinghouse Electric Co. SpecificationPS-WELD1 0 - Shielded Metal Arc Welding of Carbon Steel. No other welding procedure was provided to Chem-Strip. The inspector was informed that Chem-Strip was performing MIG welding. PS-WELD10 states that theweld joint design shall be shown on drawing and designated by AWS weld symbols. Most of the weldingperformed to replace the end of the container lid was on newly created joints not shown on licensing or fabricationdrawings.

Westinghouse had copies of certificates of welding qualification for three Chem-Strip employees. Neither Chem-Strip nor the three issuers of the certificates were approved suppliers for Westinghouse. No test reports, weldingrecords, or other objective evidence accompanied any of the certificates which were dated 1990, 1992, and 1996.While such documentation may be obtainable, it did not appear that Westinghouse had reviewed or validated anysuch information.

Westinghouse issued a letter stating that two Chem-Strip employees had been trained on the verification ofcontainer rework welds per PS-WELD10 and container drawings on October 27, 2005. The letter certified theindividuals to perform weld inspections per the specification and drawing. There was no further documentation onthe details of the training or the weld attributes to be inspected. PS-WELD1 0 is a general welding specificationand the drawings do not show the weld joint design. The sign-off on the inspection sheet used by Chem-Striponly states "Inspected Welds." Also, there was no further documentation attesting to the qualification of theinspector, such as a written or practical examination, or the results of an eye examination normally required for avisual inspector.
