Steam Generator Tube, Eddy Current Examination During the manth of December 1980, an increase in the Alpha and Beta activity was noted by the chemistry department on the secondary side of IB steam generator.

The - surveillance monitoring system showed a slight increase in March 198,0, with steady increases through October, and.the greatest increase

. in December 1980.

It' was calculated that leakage to the secondary, side ranged between 19 and 45 GPD until the unit was shut down on January _ 15, 1981.

'On~ January 23, 1981, the IB generator manway cover was removed, and the ' secondary side hydrostaticif tested at 600 psi. No evidence of.

leakage was detected in the channelhead during this test.

Eddy current (EC) examination of^about 99%~of the tubes through the first support was performed on the IB generator, with no indication detected. Steam Generator IC was also examined through the first- -support with no indications recorded.

. . - _.

, . - EC examination through the "U" bend on generators IB and IC was performed with the following results. Of 2600 tubes examined on - IB. generator 20 tubes were plugged. Of the 2600 tubes examined on IC generator, 5 tubes were plugged, with most of the plugged tubes: located in rows 1 and 2.

Examination of generators IA and ID was limited to rows 1 and 2, with no indications recorded.

The complete flange and the remaining' Unit 1 Lsteam generators were penetrant examined revealing:no other indications.

The. licensee generated Discrepancy Report No. 22-1539 and Work Request-No. Z11339 for making repairs.

_ ._. ... . Westinghouse Electric Corporation, Tampa, Florida, was contracted to perform repair activities using their procedures following review and approval by the licensee.

On February 17, 1981, the indication was excavated to a depth of approximately 1/16", then penetrant examined. The indication was still present. On February 18, 1981, the area was further excavated to a depth of approximately 1/8" x 5/8" long and penetrant examined, showing the indication removed.

The area was welded in accordance with (W) procedures and machived to assure a true gasket seating surface.

No. items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.

Exit -Inte rview 'The inspector met with licensee personnel (denoted in Persons Contacted Paragraph) at the conclusion of the inspection on February 19, 1981.

The . inspector summarized the scope and findings of the inspection.
