U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment A 3F0505-12 Page 1 of 19 FEBRUARY 1, 2005 - NRC RAI QUESTION 1 With respect to your accident induced leakage assessment, please provide the following a) a technical description of the methodology used to project the number and location (tubesheet radius) of tube-end-crack indications and the technical basis for this methodology (e.g., a benchmarking of this methodology based on previous inspection data). Include in this description, the actual values used.

b) the actual value of leakage from tube-end-crack indications based on the number of projected indications (from la above) and the existing NRC-approved leakage model.

c) a clarification of the number of tubes with tube-end-crack indications and the number of tube-end-crack indications. The staff notes that there appears to be a discrepancy in the reported number of tubes with tube-end-crack indications and the number of indications in both steam generators. For example, in steam generator A, 957 tubes were reported to have 1228 tube-end-crack indications in the October 31, 2003, letter; however, Appendix 5 to the January 27, 2004, letter indicates 1105 tubes in steam generator A contained tube end cracks. In addition, Table A-3 of the August 10, 2004, letter indicates 1119 tubes contained 1474 indications which does not appear (based on a cursory count) to match the number of tubes listed in Tables A-1 and A-2 (1099 tubes).

RESPONSE - la)

For the Refueling Outage 13 (13R) Operation Assessment Tube End Crack (TEC) leakage, Crystal River Unit 3 (CR3) used the methodology to project leakagefrom TEC as described in BAW-2346P, Alternate Repair Criteria for Tube End Cracking in the Tube-to-Tubesheet Roll Joint of Once-Through Steam Generators, Revision 0. The projected number of TEC for each radial zone was based on the number of as-found indications multiplied by the inverse of the probability of detection (POD) for Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC) in the upper tube end. To account for cracks that were not detected during the inspection, which could potentially leak during accident conditions, during the next cycle of operation the frequency distribution of TEC is scaled upward by a factor of 1/POD (based on radius location found during the eddy-current inspections). The equation used is from section 10.0 of BAW-2346P:

NIradius = [(l/POD)(NAsFound)radius] - [(Nrepaired)radius(l)]

Where:

NMradius = estimated number of indications at given radius zone NAsFound)radius = number of indications actually detected at given radius zone Nrcpalrcd)radius = number of repaired indications at a given radius zone POD = probability of detection for TECs = 0.84 The actual values of 13R TEC indications are summarized in Tables 1 & 2 below:

RESPONSE - lb)

The projected TEC leak rate from all zones for each OTSG is based oil the NRC approved plant specific TEC leak rate and corresponding radial zones for CR3 (See Table 3 below). These values are obtained from the most conservative leak rate table from Addendum A of BAW-2346P, Revision 0 (FPC to NRC letter, 3F0599-21, dated May 28, 1999).

U. S.

U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment A 3F0505-12 Page 5 of 19 Conclusion The projection of TECfor the next cycle was based on BAW-2346P. Additionally, CR3 repaired tubes with TEC to reduce the as-left leakage to accountfor a population increase in TEC. Tubes in the highest leakage value zone were repaired to minimize the recurrence of TEC in those zones. 77Te methodology to project tie number of indications was based on thie number of new TEC indications identified in 13R since ProgressEnergy personnelconsidered that there are too few datapoints to develop a meaningful historicaltrend. 7Te improvements in eddy currentdata analysis training in 13R gives confidence that CR3 identified TEC indicationsmore accuratelyin 13R than in past outages.

CR3 recognized that additional corrective actions had to be taken during the 13R outage as a result of finding the TEC postulated leakage higher than the allowable. Besides procedural and administrative changes to the OTSG inspection program, the physical changes to the plant include the re-rolling of additional tubes with TEC in both OTSGs to conservatively reduce the as-left leakage even further than the existing BAW-2346P criteria. Attachment D lists corrective actions establishedto prevent recurrence.

As part of the corrective actions, CR3 submitted License Amendment Request (LAR) #290, Revision 0, to the NRC on January 27, 2005. Approval has been requested prior to the next refueling outage for use in estimating leakage for the subsequent cycle. The LAR proposes to utilize a probabilistic methodology to determine the contribution to SLB leakage rates from TEC.

The proposed probabilistic method to estimate TEC leakage provides more accurate and realistic TEC leakage predictions while maintaining all other assumptions in BAW-2346P, Revision 0.

The methodology change for TEC leakage calculation proposed in LAR #290, Revision 0, utilizes the same probabilistic process approved by the NRC for use by plants implementing Generic Letter (GL) 95-05, "Voltage-Based Repair Criteria for Westinghouse Steam Generator Tubes Affected by Outside Diameter Stress Corrosion Cracking." The predicted leakage from TEC indications found in 13R would not have exceeded predictions had the probabilistic method been employed.

U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment A 3F0505-12 Page 6 of 19 RESPONSE - 1c) Part 1 The CR3 October 31, 2003 letter to the NRC (3F1003-07) provided the number of axially orientated TEC indications left in-service after the 13R inspection outage in each steam generator. The reported population of tubes included tubes with TEC indications that were not removed from service by re-rolling or plugging. Those tubes left in service with TEC have a projected accident leakage value assigned to each indication. The number of as-left TEC tubes reported was:

OTSG TUBES INDICATIONS Location UTEILTE UTE/LTE A 953/4 1221/7 B 729/105 959/112 The tubes with TEC indications were also identified by upper tube end (UTE) or lower tube end (LTE) since this was the first occurrence of lower tube end cracking. For the A-OTSG, the total number of tubes with TEC indications per steam generator was the sum of the two (957) because there were no tubes with a TEC on both the upper and lower tube end of the same tube. For the B-OTSG, the total number of tubes with TEC indications per steam generator was not the sum of the two because there are some tubes with a TEC on both the upper and lower tube ends. The total of unique tubes for B-OTSG is 804 and tube ends is 834. In either case, when determining TEC leakage for each steam generator, a leakage value is assigned to each and every indication whether the TEC indications are on the upper or lower tube end.

Appendix 5 from the CR3 January 4, 2004 letter (3F0104-03) to the NRC provided tables of tubes in the A and B steam generators with TEC remaining in service after the 13R outage.

After a detailed comparison between the lists in the October 31, 2003 and January 4, 2004 letters, CR3 determined that the January 2004 list included some TEC tubes that are in-service, but had been re-rolled during the 13R outage. Therefore, while the list accurately represented in-service tubes with a TEC identified, the population of re-rolled tubes should not have been included in this list. Once a tube end is re-rolled, a TEC is no longer assigned a leakage value because the tube end is outside the new pressure boundary. The re-roll is assigned a different leakage value instead of the TEC leakage value. Pages 1 through 7 of Appendix 5 identify that 1105 tubes had TECs in the A-OTSG. When revised for repaired (re-rolled) tubes, the total agrees with the 957 (953+4) identified in the first table. Pages 8 through 13 of Appendix 5 identify that 972 tubes had TECs in the B-OTSG. When revised for repaired (re-rolled) tubes, the total also agrees with the 834 (729+105) total tube ends identified above. A revised Appendix 5, consistent with previous submittals, is included as Attachment B. This attachment provides an updated listing including a tube count column.

U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment A 3F0505-12 Page 7 of 19 RESPONSE - Ic) Part 2 Table A-3 from the August 10, 2004 letter (3F0804-04) to the NRC provided a summary of the A and B-OTSG as-found TEC indications. The totals from Table A-3 are summarized below:

OTSG A Tubes A Indications B Tubes B Indications Upper Tubesheet 1115 1467 908 1173 Lower Tubesheet 4 7 108 115 Totals 1119 1474 1016 1288 The above numbers of tubes and indications have been reviewed and determined to be accurate.

RAI question Ic questions whether the number of tubes listed in Tables A-I and A-2 agree with the totals above for A-OTSG. A review of the tube numbers from Table A-I (pages 2 thru 23 from the August 10, 2004 letter) identified a total of 1115 tubes with 1467 indications. A review of the tube numbers from Table A-2 (page 24) identified a total of 4 tubes with 7 indications.

The same review was performed for the tube numbers in the B-OTSG. A review of the tube numbers from Table B-1 (pages 25 thru 42) identified a total of 908 tubes with 1173 indications.

A review of the tube numbers from Table B-2 (pages 43 thru 45) identified a total of 108 tubes with 115 indications.

The CR3 review did not identify any discrepancies between the number of tubes/indications in the A-3 Summary Table and the corresponding detailed tables A-1, A-2, B-1, or B-2.

U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment A 3F0505-12 Page 8 of 19 FEBRUARY 1 2005 - NRC RAI QUESTION 2 In the November 24, 2004, response to RAI question 1.d, it was indicated that indications are classified as being attributed to wear based on bobbin coil data. These "wear indications" are then compared to previous inspection data to determine if there is a change in signal characteristics. Rotating probe examinations are then performed at these locations of "wear" if the indications are new, the bobbin signal characteristics have changed, or there is no previous rotating probe data. Given that crack indications have been found at locations also affected by wear, please provide the technical basis for this approach. This technical basis should include the following:

a) a description of the bobbin coil eddy current data parameters used to distinguish wear from other degradation mechanisms (including intergranular attack and cracking); In particular, discuss whether other degradation mechanisms (e.g., intergranular attack and cracking) may also pass the test for being called wear based on screening the bobbin data.

b) the data supporting these parameters for screening wear from other forms of degradation.

c) a description of the criteria used to determine if the bobbin signal characteristics have changed and the basis for this "change criteria." Please discuss whether operational data supports your screening criteria. For example, in the cases where cracking has been observed in wear scars, discuss whether the bobbin signals from these indications would have met your criteria for performing rotating probe examinations. If field wear scars with cracks would not have met your criteria for performing rotating probe examinations, discuss what corrective actions will be taken (including the basis for concluding that existing wear scars (with the potential for cracks being present) will have adequate integrity at the time of your next inspection).

RESPONSE - 2 Each tube in service is inspected with the bobbin coil from tube end-to-tube end. An indication, such as wear, intergranular attack (IGA), or stress corrosion cracking (SCC) is first identified as a non-quantifiable indication (NQI) with the bobbin coil and then re-evaluated with a rotating coil probe to characterize the indication. If the indication is characterized as wear from the rotating coil examination, it is sized with the qualified bobbin sizing technique and left in-service pending review for structural integrity. Historic wear indications previously evaluated with a rotating coil and characterized as wear (volumetric wall loss) with the bobbin signal characteristics having no notable change, have the percent through-wall dimension recorded using the bobbin data. Indications are compared to the earliest inspection data (typically data from three inspections) to determine if there is any change in signal characteristics. If an indication does not have previous bobbin data (new indication) or previous rotating coil data, the indications are marked for further evaluation (NQI) using a mid-frequency +Point probe and 0.115 RPC Coil. All indications identified as NQI are resolved prior to the close out of the inspection.

U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment A 3F0505-12 Page 9 of 19 The technical basis for not repeating the rotating coil exam on confirmed wear signals is based on observing no notable bobbin signal change and that the previous rotating coil examination did not identify a flaw, other than wear. Since there is no notable change in the bobbin signal, there is reasonable assurance that the tube condition has not changed and a rotating coil exam would repeat the finding from the previous confirmation examination.

At a minimum, a notable change is characterized as a change in the phase angle of -10% or a change in the signal voltage of -0.5V or 25% of the previously recorded voltage. However, an absolute criterion for signal change is not always applicable and therefore a smaller amount of change may prompt a rotating coil exam at the discretion of the Eddy Current Qualified Data Analyst (QDA). For example, if the analyst determines that the formation of the lissajous for a specific indication is different than that of the previous data, but the phase angle and voltage are the same as the previous data, the QDAs are expected to mark the indication for further evaluation (NQI) using a mid-frequency +Point probe and 0.115 RPC.

To date, there have been no indications of wear that have had other degradation [such as Outside Diameter Stress Corrosion Cracking (ODSCC)] associated with the wear scar. In general, other degradation such as ODSCC has not occurred at broached support wear scars anywhere within the OTSG fleet. At CR3, a sample of tubes with previous wear have been examined with rotating coil during the past two inspections, Refueling Outages 12 and 13 (12R) and (13R), to confirm no change in the bobbin coil wear signal characterization.

From discussions with steam generator program representatives from other utilities with non-OTSG design steam generators, there has been no other degradation such as ODSCC that has "grown out of" support wear scars. It should also be understood that the prevalent source of ODSCC in the free span of OTSGs is "groove IGA" which develops from scratches in the tubes from tube manufacturing. In other steam generator designs, such as the Combustion Engineering (CE) design utilizing "eggcrate" lattice structures, ODSCC develops from corrosion within the crevice created at the support structure.

IGA and SCC bobbin signals are included for the Site Specific Performance Demonstration (SSPD) test that each QDA (primary, secondary, resolution, independent, and utility QDAs) must successfully complete prior to analyzing data at CR3. During the site familiarization training, the QDAs are provided examples of graphics of bobbin signals for IGA and SSC and expectations for identifying indications for further review.

The technical basis for the bobbin technique used at CR3 is based on the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) qualified techniques for wear, impingement, IGA, and stress corrosion cracking detection (SCC). EPRI Specific Technique Sheet (ETSS) 96007.1 and 96008.1 for IGA and SCC respectively are the basis for the CR3 ETSS bobbin coil examination technique. The EPRI qualifications were evaluated for application to the OTSG tubes at CR3 and determined that the essential variables are equivalent and applicable to CR3, including the data sample set.

[Framatome Document 51-5005589-02]. Additionally, the qualification probability of detection for intergranular attack and stress corrosion cracking detection was determined using pulled tube data from OTSG tubes, including tubes from CR3 [B&WOG Documents 77-1258722-00, "Probability of Detection of Defects in Once-Through Steam Generators" and 77-5002925-05, "Probability of Detection of Defects in Once-Through Steam Generators" (2002 Project Supplement)].

U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment A 3F0505-12 Page 10 of 19 Inspection Results Cracking in a wear scar has not been specifically observed at CR3 as an active degradation mechanism. During 12R (fall 2001), 109 wear indications in the A-OTSG and 503 indications in B-OTSG were inspected using the rotating coil and no flaws, other than wear, were identified.

During the bobbin examination, 222 indications were identified as NQI, using the screening criteria described above, in A-OTSG, of which 47 indications were near a tube support plate (TSP) or upper tube sheet secondary face (+/-1.0 inch from the TSP centerline) where a wear signal is expected to appear. Two of the 47 indications were evaluated as unacceptable, volumetric IGA or SCC indications, and were removed from service (one indication was evaluated as a single circumferential crack, not associated with a wear indication). In B-OTSG, 101 indications were near a TSP or upper tube sheet secondary face (+/-1.0 inch from the TSP centerline) where a wear signal is expected to appear. Two of the 101 indications were evaluated as volumetric indications (IGA) and were removed from service.

During 13R (fall 2003), 281 wear indications in the A-OTSG were inspected using the rotating coil. One indication in A-OTSG, tube 143-3, had a flaw other than wear and was removed from service. The indication was identified during the bobbin exam and indicated as a NQI and was further evaluated with RPC and confirmed to have a volumetric indication (IGA). In B-OTSG, 323 wear indications were inspected using the rotating coil. No flaws, other than wear, were identified. During the bobbin examination, 188 indications were identified as NQI using the screening criteria described above in A-OTSG, of which 21 indications were near a TSP or upper tubesheet secondary face (+/-1.0 inch from the TSP centerline). Three indications were evaluated as IGA and were removed from service. In B-OTSG, 9 indications were near a TSP or upper tube sheet secondary face (+/-1.0 inch from the TSP centerline) where a wear signal is expected to appear. No indications were identified or confirmed as a flaw. This specific data demonstrates that CR3 applies a conservative threshold for evaluating wear indications for further characterization based on the small percentage of wear NQIs that actually have additional degradation. No corrective actions are considered necessary since the operational data shows that unacceptable flaws near the TSP would be detected.

Conclusion Bobbin indications of wear in the 2003 inspection were evaluated and compared for change based on available historical data for that indication. If there was previous rotating coil data AND there was no significant change in the bobbin signal based on available historical data, the bobbin indication was assigned a through-wall dimension. Over the past several cycles there have been hundreds of bobbin NQI indications reported, and all NQI indications are characterized with a rotating coil. Within these examinations are many support structures, of which all that have been inspected show no evidence of other degradation associated with wear scars.

The standard industry practice is to use the bobbin coil to screen the OTSG tubes for indications potentially associated with SCC and perform a follow-up inspection with a rotating coil. The bobbin technique was able to detect IGA and SCC near the TSP as detailed above. Therefore, the qualification for detection of flaws and operational data provides reasonable assurance that unacceptable flaws near the TSP (wear) would be detected for further evaluation using the bobbin coil technique.

U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment A 3F0505-12 Page 11 of 19 CR3 reviewed NRC Information Notice (IN) 03-05, Failure to Detect Freespan Cracks in PWR Steam Generator Tubes. As identified in IN 03-05, the industry practice is to use the bobbin coil technique to screen for indications potentially associated with SCC and then further characterize the indication with rotating coil techniques. The proposed actions in the IN were to evaluate the reporting criteria for bobbin flaws to ensure that potential flaws are further evaluated with the appropriate technique. During the review of IN 03-05, the CR3 data analyst guidelines were reviewed to ensure they included the minimum expectation to report any change in the bobbin signal from all available previous data. The qualified data analysts at CR3 are required to pass the site-specific performance demonstration test, which includes bobbin indications where flaws were later confirmed, with a rotating coil. The analysis process at CR3 is an independent review of all of the data by primary analysts and secondary analysts. If an indication is called by one group and not the other, two resolution analysts (Level III QDAs) evaluate the indications to determine the appropriate action, keep the indication for further evaluation or determine the indication is non-relevant. The indications are then reviewed by an Independent QDA or Utility QDA for concurrence on the final disposition. This rigor in data analysis provides reasonable assurance that unacceptable flaws will be identified and appropriately dispositioned within the industry guidelines.

U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment A 3F0505-12 Page 12 of 19 FEBRUARY 1, 2005 - RAI QUESTION 3 In the November 24, 2004, response to RAI question 2b, it was indicated that the difference between certain inspection numbers was due to the sleeves installed in the steam generators.

In response to question lb, it was indicated that 163 sleeves were installed in each steam generator at the start of the 2003 outage. Clarify the difference between the inspection numbers for steam generator B which is 159 rather than 163 (as it is for steam generator A).

RESPONSE - 3 There were 163 Alloy 690 sleeves originally installed in 1994 in both A and B-OTSG. One sleeved tube was removed from service from B-OTSG during the 1997 inspection due to an outside diameter indication in the non-sleeved region of the tube. Three sleeved tubes were removed from service in B-OTSG during the 1999 inspection due to indications in the parent tube.

Therefore, at the beginning of the fall 2003 inspection, there were 163 sleeves in-service in A-OTSG and 159 sleeves in-service in B-OTSG.

In the 2003 outage, four sleeved tubes in A-OTSG were removed from service because the eddy current probes could not traverse the sleeve upper end. Also in the 2003 outage, three sleeved tubes in B-OTSG were removed from service preventatively to address tube end degradation and operating experience recommendations from the Three Mile Island tube sever issue. At the conclusion of the fall 2003 inspection, there were 159 sleeves in-service in A-OTSG and 156 sleeves in-service in B-OTSG.

U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment A 3F0505-12 Page 13 of 19 FEBRUARY 1, 2005 - NRC RAI QUESTION 4 In the November 24, 2004, response to RAI question 3, the size of indications with the largest voltages was provided. Given that the largest voltage indication may not always correspond to the most severe indication (in terms of structural and leakage integrity),

confirm that, in this case, the largest voltage indications were the most severe indications detected. In the future it would be beneficial to delineate the location of each imperfection based on whether the indications are in the original roll transition, the original roll expanded region (other than the transition and the tube end), the re-roll upper or lower roll transition, the re-roll expanded region, the unexpanded portion of tube in the tubesheet region (not between re-rolls), the free span portion of the tube (outside the tubesheet) etc.

In addition, it would be beneficial to specify the number of re-rolls (if any) were in the tube at the time of the inspection if the imperfections are in the tubesheet region.

RESPONSE - 4 The response to RAI question 3 from the November 24, 2004 letter provided a table of the eddy current indications that identified the largest signal voltage for a given type of Non-destructive Examination (NDE) indication. This table provided a list of many of the largest percent through-wall indications found during the inspection. The response also provided a separate list of indications in each OTSG excluding indications near the cladding, first span intergranular attack and wear. However, not all of the largest voltage indications are the most severe when compared to a condition monitoring assessment for structural and leakage evaluation. As requested, the most limiting indications based on the structural and leakage assessment are identified in the table and Figures 1 and 2 below. Where a given type of NDE indication is not represented in the table, it is because that type of indication was not considered the most limiting based on the structural and leakage assessment. To provide additional flaw information, the locations of the imperfections are identified by OTSG landmark.

The choice of the largest indications for the A-OTSG and B-OTSG is from the 13R Condition Monitoring (CM) assessment. For condition monitoring, degradation dimensions are inferred from NDE measurements. Therefore, the condition monitoring limit curves in Figures 1 & 2 include NDE sizing uncertainties as well as material property variation and burst pressure calculation uncertainties. NDE readings which plot under the Condition Monitoring Limit curve demonstrate at least a 0.95 probability at 50% confidence that the burst pressure meets or exceeds a value of 3 Delta P. Indications with NDE measured lengths and depths at or below the Condition Monitoring Limit curve meet the required deterministic structural performance criteria for minimum degraded tube burst pressure. Each of the indications was compared to the CM criteria which are established for CR3. The leakage assessment for these indications was also acceptable.

U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment A 3F0505-12 Page 17 of 19 February 1. 2005 - NRC RAI Ouestion 5 In the November 24, 2004, response to RAI question 5, you indicated that the obstructed sleeves were attributed to tube/sleeve end damage from previous loose parts and no indications were identified in the portion of the sleeve and tube examined. Please discuss the following with respect to this finding:

a) State whether the loose part was identified and removed from the steam generator (presumably from the primary side of the steam generator). Discuss the source of the part. If a part was not identified, discuss the basis for concluding the damage was from a loose part.

b) Discuss the location of the obstruction (i.e., the portion of tube/sleeve extending above the upper tubesheet). If the obstruction was located in the portion of tube/sleeve within the tubesheet (including the clad), discuss how the part caused the obstruction.

c) Given that the upper sleeve joint is a mechanical joint, discuss how you confirmed that the obstruction did not result in a weakening of the joint (i.e., pulling of the sleeve away from the parent tube) such that the sleeve could not meet its original design criteria.

Provide the extent of the obstruction and the technical basis for your conclusion.

d) Although no rejectable flaw-like signals were identified during the inspection of the portion of the sleeve that could be inspected, discuss whether an obstruction in another sleeved tube could have weakened the joint such that the sleeve could no longer meet its original design criteria.

RESPONSE - 5a)

Loose parts on the primary side of the OTSG are typically identified visually before the eddy current inspection begins and then using the eddy current tool camera. There was not a specific loose part removed from the upper tubesheet area of the A-OTSG in the 2003 inspection.

However, the A-OTSG tubes have had significant tube end (upper 0.125 inch) damage from loose parts in previous cycles. The source of loose parts was foreign material (section of Unistrut and related fasteners) in the Reactor Coolant System after Refueling Outage 8. During 13R, the decision was made to plug the sleeved tubes even though no defects were identified, instead of delaying the outage by several shifts waiting for the tube-end repair tool to arrive on site.

RESPONSE - 5b)

The damage was at the tube end and the bobbin coil probe could not completely traverse the sleeved tube end that extends above the tubesheet. The roll joints in the tube were inspected from the cold leg (lower tube end) and did not reveal any flaws in the sleeve or parent tube.

RESPONSE - Sc)

Visual inspection of the sleeve ends showed that the ends were not pulled away from the parent tube and the sleeve opening was essentially round indicating only minor impacts from above.

The sleeve end was only slightly deformed to the point where the eddy current probe could not

U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment A 3FO505-12 Page 18 of 19 enter and traverse the sleeve. For example, there were several other sleeves that originally could not pass a probe (NDE Code OBS) which later had the sleeve ends opened using a tube end repair tool. Once the tube ends were opened, every sleeve was inspected and no defects were identified in any sleeve or rolled joint. These four sleeves/tubes were only plugged because the original tube-end repair tool had to be replaced and a new tool was not available in a timely manner. In addition, the original sleeve qualification testing (BAW-2120P, Steam Generator Tube Sleeving) included axial load cycling in excess of the possible impact loading from loose parts. The qualification testing results, along with the minimal damage to the sleeve end, was the technical basis for determining the sleeve and rolled joints were still acceptable.

RESPONSE - 5d)

As explained in response 5a), the obstruction was tube end damage and not foreign material.

The tubes and upper sleeve ends extend above the tubesheet approximately 0.187 inch. The upper sleeve rolled joint is centered approximately 1.375 inch below the tube end. Therefore, sleeve end damage is not expected to weaken the joint such that the sleeve could no longer meet its original design criteria. A drawing of a typical sleeve is attached.

MODE 4 REPORT, TABLE 3

U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment C 3F0505-12 Page 1 of 1 Table 3 numbers below are from the Refueling Outage 12 (12R) MODE 4 Report (Table 3 of letter 3F1001-03, dated October 19, 2001). It was not known at the time, but the numbers in that document were based on a non-conservative TEC leak rate table used for determining total leakage. It was not until after the 13R inspection and the preparation of the revised TEC calculation that this discrepancy was identified. Using the corrected leak rates in the revised 12R TEC calculation allows for a better comparison with Refueling Outage 13 (13R) as-found leakage. Below, CR3 is providing Table 3 with the previous non-conservative information and the revised Table 3. The information in the revised Table 3 supersedes the Table 3 provided in the 12R MODE 4 Report.

Any under-prediction calculated using the 13R accident leakage tables (letter 3F1003-07, dated October 31, 2003) should use the upper tubesheet leakage rate from 13R because the lower tube end leakage could not have been predicted.

U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment D 3F0505-12 Page 1 of 7 Corrective Actions

1. Revised the Once-Through Steam Generator (OTSG) Program Manual. The changes included:
a. Added information related to use of the appropriate Tube End Crack (TEC) leak rate table.
b. Added guidance to ensure accounting of new TEC beyond Probability of Detection (POD).
c. Added a requirement for vendor notification for use of correct leak rate table prior to the outage.
2. Revised the OTSG Inspection Procedure. The changes included:
a. Added signature confirmation that the correct leak rate table was utilized.
b. Ensured Refueling Outage 13 (13R) leakage assessment used the correct leak rate table.

Added requirement to evaluate the need for repairs made to account for rate of new TEC found in the current outage.

c. Repaired TEC in 13R to gain margin for Refueling Outage 14 (14R).
d. Revised Refueling Outage 12 (12R) TEC calculation to correct errors.
3. Will re-evaluate the method to account for rate of new TEC for Refueling 15 (15R) projection. The projection will be based upon:
a. Refueling Outage 14R as-found data as compared to previous outage trends. A more precise prediction can be made with multiple data points.
b. Lessons learned from NRC Requests for Additional Information (RAls).
c. The status of License Amendment Request #290, Revision 0, "Probabilistic Methodology to Determine the Contribution to Main Steam Line Break Leakage Rates for the Once-Through Steam Generator from the Tube End Crack Alternate Repair Criteria."
4. CR3 will establish a requirement for the Plant Nuclear Safety Committee approval of the methodology utilized for projecting the next operating cycles Main Steam Line Break (MSLB) leakage value and the basis for projecting TEC values beyond the Probability of Detection (POD) amount, and the as-left results for the upcoming operating cycle.
5. CR3 will perform a review of RAIs from recent submittals to identify process improvements. CR3 recognizes that more early face-to-face communications will be required when addressing complex issues.

U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment D 3F0505-12 Page 2 of 7 APRIL 8,2005, NRC RAT OUESTION - a) a) A justification for reducing the expected number of indications in the lower tubesheet by a factor of 15. Since a similar reduction factor could have been applied following the initial detection of indications in the upper tubesheet, discuss whether such a reduction was actually observed in the upper tubesheet.

RESPONSE - a)

This question addresses information provided in the response to Question lb), Attachment A, Reference 1, that has been deleted from the response provided in this letter. The deleted information addressed a technique for predicting leakage attributed to Tube End Cracks for the next Refueling Outage (14R). The deleted information was not used during the 13R OTSG inspection and will not be used during the 14R inspection. Thus, Question a) above is no longer applicable.

APRIL 8,2005, NRC RAI QUESTION - b) b) A justification for reducing the number of indications expected to find in zone 6 given that some of the zone 6 tubes were plugged or repaired. This justification should include the following: i) the number of non-repaired or non-plugged tubes in each zone since IOR (i.e.,

the number of tubes in which tube end cracks (TECs) could initiate and contribute to leakage), ii) the number of actual TEC indications (tubes) detected in each zone since 1 IR, iii) the number of projected TEC indication in each zone since 1IR, iv) the number of as-left TEC indications (tubes) since IIR, v) the number of new TEC indications (tubes) found in each zone since 1 IR, vi) the average number of TEC indications per tube per zone since IIR, vii) the percentage of tubes that developed new TECs since 1 IR.

RESPONSE - b First Part)

This question addresses information from the response to Question lb), Attachment A, Reference 1, that has been deleted from the response. The deleted information addressed a technique for predicting leakage attributed to Tube End Cracks for the next Refueling Outage (14R). The deleted information was not used during the 13R OTSG inspection and will not be used during the 14R inspection. Thus, the first part of Question b) is no longer applicable.

Prior to 2003, the lower tube ends were not inspected for TEC and no indications were identified.

Therefore, the data for 1997, 1999, and 2001 only have TEC information for the upper tube end.

All data prior to 13R (2003) is from the Upper Tube End.

APRIL 8,2005. NRC RAI OUESTION - c) c) An assessment of the potential that the number of TEC indications is increasing at an increasing rate such that projections based on historical experience need to be adjusted.

RESPONSE - c)

An assessment of the potential that the number of TEC indications is increasing at an increasing rate has not been performed. Corrective Action 3 in this attachment will use data from Refueling Outage 14 and previous outages to re-evaluate the method to account for new TEC and to adjust projections for 15R.

APRIL 8, 2005. NRC RAI QUESTION - d) d) The basis for the new TEC leakage values of 0.274 gpm and 0.535 gpm in steam generators A and B, respectively in light of the information discussed above.

U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment D 3F050-12 Page 7 of 7 RESPONSE - d)

This question addresses information from the response to Question 1.b), Attachment A, Reference 1, that has been deleted from the response. The deleted information addressed a technique for predicting leakage attributed to Tube End Cracks for the next Refueling Outage (14R). The deleted information was not used during the 13R OTSG inspection and will not be used during the 14R inspection. Thus, Question d) is no longer applicable.

APRIL 11, 2005. NRC RAT QUESTION Upon further review of the March 30, 2005, there appear to be other inconsistencies in reported values. For example, the "new" leakage for the upper tubesheet reported in the March 30, 2005, letter does not appear to be based on values provided in previous reports. "New leakage" is defined as the difference between the "as found" leakage during one outage (13R in this case) and the "as-left" leakage in the prior outage (12R in this case). On pages 6 and 8 of 30 of Attachment A to the March 30, 2005 letter, the "new leakage" is reported as 0.261 gpm for steam generator A and 0.411 gpm for steam generator B. However, the "as-found" leakage for 13R is reported in the licensee's letter dated October 31, 2003 (ML033090110) as 1.102 gpm and 0.932 gpm for steam generators A and B, respectively. The "as-left" leakage for 12R was reported in the March 30, 2005 letter as 0.626 gpm and 0.625 gpm for steam generators A and B, respectively. The difference between these as-found and as-left leakage values (0.306 gpm and 0.477 gpm in steam generators A and B, respectively) do not match those reported in the March 30, 2005, letter. In addition, the number of indications in zone 6 reported in the body of the text of the March 30, 2005 letter (pages 7 and 9 of Attachment A) do not appear to match those reported in Tables 1 and 2.

RESPONSE

This question addresses information from the response to Question 1.b), Attachment A, Reference 1, that has been deleted from the response. The deleted information addressed a technique for predicting leakage attributed to Tube End Cracks for the next Refueling Outage (14R). The deleted information was not used during the 13R OTSG inspection and will not be used during the 14R inspection. Thus, this question is no longer applicable.
