ATTACHMENT 2 A2R17 CONTAINMENT lSI (IWEIIWL) RESULTS
ATTACHMENT 2 A2R17 CONTAINMENT lSI (IWEIIWL) RESULTS REPORT OF CONTAINMENT DEGRADATION Containment inspections were performed in accordance with Subsection IWE (Requirements for Class MC and Metallic Liners of Class CC Components of Light-Water Cooled Power Plants) and IWL (Requirements for Class CC Components of Light-Water Cooled Power Plants) of ASME Section XI, Division 1, (2001 Edition through the 2003 Addenda} along with specified modifications and limitations in 10CFR 50.55a. The scope of the examinations during A2R17 included VT-1 examinations at all remaining areas behind the moisture barrier (MB) that were not examined during previous outages. Containment liner plate repairs by welding were completed at all locations where metal thickness losses exceeded 4/64", including those newly discovered during A2R17 (refer to Work Order 1511557 for documentation of repairs).
(ASME IWE) REPORT OF CONTAINMENT DEGRADATION Examinations of the Class CC liner during A2R17 (Second Period of the Second Interval Containment lSI) were performed in accordance with the requirements of 2001 Edition of ASME Section XI, through 2003 Addenda. The scope of the examinations included all locations below the moisture barrier that were not examined during previous outages.
Additionally, repair by welding was completed at all locations where metal thickness losses exceeded 4/64".
Exelon Procedures ER-AA-330-007, "Visual Examination of ASME Section XI Class MC Surfaces and Class CC Liners", ER-AA-335-018 "Visual Examination of ASME /WE Class MC and Metallic Liners of CC Components", and ER-AA-335-004 "Ultrasonic Measurement of Material Thickness and Interfering Conditions" were used to perform the examinations.
A description of the type and estimated extent of the conditions that led to the degradation [1 OCFR 50.55a(b)(2)(ix)(A)(1 )]:
As previously discussed, all locations behind the moisture barrier which had metal thickness losses exceeding 4/64" were repaired by welding. These repairs were completed prior to conducting the Containment Integrated Leak Rate Test (ILRT). With regard to other degradation identified during A2R17, the most notable type of degradation was liner metal thickness loss due to corroded metal just behind the MB, found as a result of VT examinations. Metal thickness loss of varying depths was found. The maximum pit depth identified was 6/64". It should be noted this metal thickness loss took place prior to moisture barrier replacement and application of Keeler and Long 9600 Series coating in A2R08. All VT areas examined during A2R17 were found coated and dry.
Extent of Condition:
The maximum metal thickness loss of 6/64" occurred at four locations based on VT examinations of the areas inspected. These examinations also indicated that the liner plate had contained numerous pits in the areas behind the MB. It should be noted that areas examined in A2R17 included areas that were not examined during previous outages. The degradation found in A2R17 was similar to that found during A2R14, A2R15, and A2R16. It is concluded that the pattern of degradation found in A2R17 is typical of the entire liner plate surface behind the moisture barrier and contained within a horizontal strip of liner plate, approximately 4" high, around the perimeter of the liner. There was no evidence of corrosion at lower elevations of the liner plate below the MB.
Page 1 of 3
ATTACHMENT 2 A2R17 CONTAINMENT lSI (IWE/IWL) RESULTS Description of the Conditions That Led to the Degradation:
Based on the recorded observations it is evident that the significant portions of the liner plate degradation behind the moisture barrier (MB) are attributed to corrosion due to moisture barrier degradation combined with water infiltration between the MB and the liner.
In addition, the liner coating system may not have been adequate for the application for which it was used. The liner plate surface below the MB was coated with Carbo Zinc CZ11 prior to the year 2000. Carbo Zinc CZ11 does not tolerate improper surface preparation and is not recommended for use unless white metal condition with a contoured surface profile is achieved. Since this strip of liner plate behind the MB is not easily accessible, it is unlikely that the proper surface preparation was attained during the initial coating application. Furthermore, the liner plate surface was not completely dried (some moisture left in the wall from the wet Cerafibre resting against it) before the MB was replaced in 2000. In the year 2000, the Cerafibre was found wet and adhering to the metal liner. The liner most likely experienced a slow chronic corrosion rate prior to 2000. The bulk of the liner corrosion likely occurred prior to the year 2000, when the coating for the liner below the moisture barrier was Carbo Zinc CZ11. The new coating applied during moisture barrier replacement in A2R08, and used in subsequent outages through A2R17, was Keeler and Long 9600 Series. This coating is used for Service Level I coating in containment. Unlike the original Carbo Zinc CZ11 coating, Keeler and Long 9600 does not require white metal surface conditions prior to coating and therefore is an effective coating for use on the liner plate behind the moisture barrier.
Evaluation of each area, and the result of the evaluation
[1 OCFR 50.55a(b)(2)(ix)(A)(2)]:
An Engineering evaluation (EC 398857) was performed to address all the indications. The evaluation determined that the liner plate with the highest degraded condition (4/64" metal thickness loss after all repairs were made) will remain operational and meet its intended design function throughout the upcoming cycle. Additional augmented examinations are scheduled during the next period (A2R19). As previously discussed, repair by welding was completed at locations where liner material losses exceeded 4/64".
Description of Necessary Corrective Actions Completed
[1 OCFR 50.55a(b)(2)(ix)(A)(3)]:
- 1)
Approximately 171' of liner plate directly behind the MB was examined in A2R17, in all remaining areas that were not examined during previous outages.
- 2) Repairs were completed in A2R17 for areas previously examined in A2R14, A2R15 and A2R16, and areas that were examined for the first time in A2R17, with a metal loss greater than 4/64".
- 3) An Engineering evaluation (EC 398857) was completed to provide justification for the acceptability of the liner plate at its thinnest location (4/64") and operation of Unit 2 until A2R19, without additional repair or replacement activities on the containment liner plate.
- 4) The liner surfaces at all exposed locations where the moisture barrier and existing coating had been removed during A2R17 were coated with Keeler and Long 9600 series coating (used for Level I coating in containment).
Page 2 of 3
ATTACHMENT2 A2R17 CONTAINMENT lSI (IWEIIWL) RESULTS
- 5) A new MB was installed at all areas where the existing MB was removed during A2R17. A post installation VT-3 exam of the entire MB was performed (Work Order 1511557-04. No cracks or voids which would allow water intrusion were observed.
- 6) Portions of Class CC liner below the MB have been categorized as Category E-C (Containment Surfaces Requiring Augmented Examination) in the Unit 2 lSI schedule.
Proposed Corrective Actions for A2R19:
Perform VT and UT examinations at all augmented areas discovered in A2R16 and A2R17 that were not repaired in A2R17.
Conclusions/Findings:
The liner plate is acceptable and capable of performing its intended design function until A2R19 when additional augmented examinations are scheduled. (ATI1433360)
