Subject:
sWNP-2 OPERATING LICENSE NPF-21, ANALYTICALEVALUATIONOF INSERVICE INSPECTION EXAMINATIONRESULTS, ADDITIONALINFORMATION
Reference:
Letter GO2-98-213 dated December 15, 1998, DW Coleman (SS) to NRC, "Analytical Evaluation of Inservice Insp'ection Examination Results"
/
To complement the information provided to your staff during conference calls on February 2 and 25, 1999, the Supply System is docketing the attached reports. It is our understanding that this information will be used to assist the NRC staff in review of WNP-2 Inservice Inspection (ISI) activities associated with the evaluation of a ptanar indication found on weld number 24RRC(2)A-1 during the Spring 1998 refueling outage.
This information was not required to be submitted to the NRC for review and approval prior to resumption of operation (under Generic Letter 88-01) in that the planar indication was determined not to be a crack or an indication due to Intergranular Stress Corrosion Cracking (IGSCC).
The indication is considered an ultrasonic signal reflector condition from a fabrication repair.
However, since a direct correlation between the repair and the inservice examination can not be made, it was conservatively decided to evaluate the indication as ifthe IGSCC mechanism is active, and apply the worst case loading to determine ifthe indication is acceptable for continued operation.
Using this conservative
- approach, the reporting requirement of ASME Section XI, Subsection IWB-3134(b),
was implemented.
This requirement was satisfied by the referenced correspondence of December 15, 1998.
