L-2013-240, 10 CFR 50.4, 10 CFR 50.55a Attachment 1, Rev. 0 1 of 13 St. Lucie Unit 1 FOURTH INSPECTION INTERVAL RELIEF REQUEST NUMBER 7, Revision 0 PSL Relief Request In Accordance with 10CFR50.55a(a)(3)(ii)
-Hardship or Unusual Difficulty without Compensating Increase in Level of Quality or Safety-
- 1. ASME Code Component(s) Affected Class 3 Intake Cooling Water (ICW) System 30" diameter piping in Unit 1 as follows:
System 21, 1-30"-CW-29 and 1-30"-CW-30 (Discharge piping downstream of Component Cooling Water (CCW) Heat Exchangers only)
2. Applicable Code Edition and Addenda
The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Rules for Inservice Inspection of Nuclear Power Plant Components, Section Xl, 2001 Edition with Addenda through 2003111 as amended by 10CFR50.55a, is the Code of Record for the St. Lucie Unit 1 4 th 10-year interval.
USAS B31.7 Class 3, 1969 Edition [2" is the Construction Code for St. Lucie Unit 1. The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Rules for Construction of Nuclear Power Plant Components, Section I1l, Class 3, 1971 Edition with Addenda through Summer 1973' ], is the Code of Record for St. Lucie Unit 1 based on reconciliation with the Construction Code.
3. Applicable Code Requirement
ASME Code,Section XI, Paragraph IWA-4421 of the 2001 Edition with Addenda through 2003[11 states that "Defects shall be removed or mitigated in accordance with the following requirements:
..." Subparagraph IWA-4422.1 states that "A defect is considered removed when it has been reduced to an acceptable size."
4. Reason for Request
The nuclear safety related ICW System for St. Lucie Unit 1 is comprised of two redundant trains (i.e., 'A' and 'B'). 1-30"-CW-29 and 1-30"-CW-30 are open ended discharge pipes to the ocean discharge canals. Due to the seawater content, the ICW piping constructed from Standard Wall 30" (0.375 inch wall), A-155 KC-65 (equivalent to SA 106 Grade B) Carbon Steel, has an internal liner to preclude the loss of internal pipe wall due to corrosion. The piping being addressed in this relief request is cement or epoxy lined 30 inch nominal diameter buried piping with a nominal liner thickness of 1/8-inch. The outer surface of the piping is coated with Coal-Tar Epoxy. The ICW piping is classified as a Class 3 component, qualified in accordance with ASME Code,Section III, Subsection ND criteria. Burial depths range from 4 feet-3 inch to 16 feet below grade.
L-2013-240, 10 CFR 50.4, 10 CFR 50.55a Attachment 1, Rev. 0 2 of 13 St. Lucie Unit 1 FOURTH INSPECTION INTERVAL RELIEF REQUEST NUMBER 7, Revision 0 St. Lucie station performs single train internal pipe inspections each outage, resulting in 100%
inspection every other outage. The inspections are performed in accordance with St. Lucie's commitment to the NRC Generic Letter GL 89-13[41. The objective of this commitment is to perform routine inspection to ensure that corrosion, erosion, protective coating failure, silting, and biofouling does not degrade the performance of the ICW safety-related system. ICW pipe inspections at St. Lucie are performed by a qualified pipe inspector. The inspection methodology consists of draining the pipe and removing a section to allow internal access, cleaning the pipe surface, and performing a visual examination of the cement or epoxy liner. The inspector observes for signs of corrosion deposits, staining, cracks, missing lining, area blisters, peeling/delamination, surface irregularities, or discoloration. UT inspection of degraded pipe metal is performed where there is degradation.
The above described pipe inspections have from time to time identified localized areas of liner loss resulting from corrosion cells in the underlying piping. Should measurements detect a pipe wall loss resulting in a remaining pipe wall thickness less than the prescribed ASME Code required minimum pipe wall thickness or a through-wall leak is identified, a repair in compliance with ASME Code Section Xl, Article IWA-4000 "Repair and Replacement" would be required. Full defect removal of discovered localized thinning per IWA-4000 may result in a through-wall defect. This case and in those instances where a through-wall defect is discovered, would result in the potential for leakage due to damage to the external coating. If the external coating was not damaged during the defect removal, a traditional repair of cutting a hole and installing a welded rolled plate to return the piping to its original design condition is not possible as the pipe is buried and the outside of the pipe is not easily accessible. Welding would destroy the surrounding exterior coating and the location would prevent NDE of the exterior of the pipe. Consequently, Florida Power & Light, pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3)(ii), is requesting relief from the requirements of ASME Code,Section XI, Subsection IWA-4000 for defect removal prior to repair since compliance would result in hardship or unusual difficulty without a compensating increase in the level of quality and safety.
Florida Power and Light has installed several repairs without removing the defects, and is requesting relief to leave the existing repairs in place and to allow installation of additional repairs in the future to repair similarly damaged areas. The earliest existing repairs that are still in service were installed in 2005. The ASME Code, Section Xl requirements before the current 10-year inspection interval regarding removal of defects are equivalent to those listed in Section 2 and Section 3 above.
The existing repairs include six installed plates in 1-30"-CW-29 (Train B) consisting of sizes of 3.5"x3.5", 7.5"x11.5", and 10"xll". The plates in 1-30"-CW-29 were all installed in 2012. An additional nineteen plates consisting of sizes of 3.5"x3.5", 11"xll", 8"x8", and 10"xll" are installed in 1-30"-CW-30 (Train A). One of the plates was installed in 2005, one in 2008 and the remainder in 2012. The total length of pipe in both trains that contains the bolted patch plates is approximately 200 feet. Isometric views showing the relative location of the bolted patch. plate repairs in the ICW piping are provided in Figure 3 through Figure 7.
L-2013-240, 10 CFR 50.4, 10 CFR 50.55a Attachment 1, Rev. 0 3 of 13 St. Lucie Unit 1 FOURTH INSPECTION INTERVAL RELIEF REQUEST NUMBER 7, Revision 0
- 5. Proposed Alternative and Basis for Use Proposed Alternative Install internal bolted patch plate repairs typical of that illustrated in Figure l and Figure 2 to cover the damaged areas of the inside surface of the pipe. The internal bolted patch plates are designed to meet the criteria of the applicable Code of Record 131, as required by ASME Code, Section XI1",
Paragraph IWA-4221.
Basis A description of the process used to qualify the design, a description of the installation process, and the inspection program to monitor the condition of the repairs is included in this section.
Design Qualification Process:
The design qualification process determines the minimum pipe wall thickness using design formulas of ASME Code,Section III and the criteria presented within FSAR Table 3.9-3 for reviewing interactions of pressure stress and longitudinal bending stresses. The calculations evaluate the required reinforcement versus the actual reinforcement available around the corrosion holes and reviews bolting requirements for the patch plate which is analyzed as a blind flange. Reinforcement interaction is reviewed for the multiple holes to ensure additional reinforcement is not required.
The design qualification process includes the following steps:
- 1. Develop a minimum pipe wall thickness based on hoop stress and longitudinal bending stress per ASME Code,Section III, ND-3641.1 as required by Subsection ND.
- 2. Determine required and actual reinforcement areas and zones per ASME Code,Section III, Subsection ND.
- 3. Determine patch plate thickness requirements per ASME Code,Section III, Subsection ND.
The installed plate nominal thickness is at least equal to the nominal thickness of the undamaged pipe.
- 4. Determine the gasket loading and bolt requirements per ASME Code,Section III, Appendix E.
- 5. Review thread engagement using machinery principles.
- 6. Address interaction or reinforcement zones per ASME Code,Section III, Subsection ND.
- 7. Perform stress intensification factor review.
Installation Process Summary:
- 1. Avoiding damage to any external coatings on the pipe outside surface (OD), prepare the surface of corrosion holes by blast cleaning and fill with epoxy material to the profile of the pipe ID.
- 2. Remove a section of the pipe lining centered on the affected area.
L-2013-240, 10 CFR 50.4, 10 CFR 50.55a Attachment 1, Rev. 0 4 of 13 St. Lucie Unit 1 FOURTH INSPECTION INTERVAL RELIEF REQUEST NUMBER 7, Revision 0
- 3. Clean and smooth interior of pipe to support closure plate fit-up.
- 4. Layout bolt hole locations on pipe and ultrasonically inspect for thickness. The degraded areas are ultrasonically inspected to determine surrounding wall thickness. All readings outside of the areas of degradation are within the manufacturer's tolerance of nominal wall thickness.
- 5. Drill and tap Y4" deep bolt holes. Do not allow holes to exceed Y" depth to maintain minimum wall thickness.
- 6. Install the studs wrench tight without lubrication.
- 7. Apply epoxy to pipe beneath closure plate area including corrosion holes previously filled and the gasket area.
- 8. Before epoxy hardens, install gasket, closure plate, washers and nuts (lightly lubricated).
- 9. Trim studs flush with the tops of the nuts, degrease and surface prep the exposed area, and cover the entire repair area with epoxy coating, Ensure that the coating is blende-dto.
provide smooth transitions to minimize ICW flow turbulence.
Post-installation Inspections:
The piping inspections described in Section 4 are continued after the internal bolted plate repairs are performed. In addition to the visual inspection, a hammer test is generally performed for all patches installed in the pipe. Partial disbondment of a patch will produce a hollow sound when tapped with a chipping hammer. A solid, non-hollow sound indicates that the patch remains in good condition. If a patch is suspect based on visual examination or hammer test results, the patch is removed from the pipe surface for further examination.
Since the bolted patch plate is installed on the inside surface of the piping and it completely covers the damaged area with a gasketed closure, the damaged area is isolated from the corrosive environment. Also, the damaged area is covered with an epoxy coating prior to the repair, including filling the damaged areas for a smooth repair surface, and after the repair, further isolating the damaged area from the corrosion surface. There is therefore minimal potential for the damaged area to expand over time during service such that the repair would no longer be effective. Based on a typical corrosion rate of carbon steel exposed to seawater of 30 mils per year (mpy)Is], the maximum extent of corrosion should the epoxy coating and gasket be breached to allow access to the original defect area would be 0.09-inch, assuming a 3-year inspection interval. The extent of the bolted plate beyond the defect area is always much greater than 0.09 inch so any additional corrosion of the defected area would be identified and corrected during the next inspection. Note that the minimum nominal thickness of the bolted plate is at least as thick as the undamaged piping so the potential corrosion of the plate is no greater than that of the undamaged piping.
Periodic inspections completed to date have not identified any degradation of the existing internal bolted plate repairs.
L-2013-240, 10 CFR 50.4, 10 CFR 50.55a Attachment 1, Rev. 0 5 of 13 St. Lucie Unit 1 FOURTH INSPECTION INTERVAL RELIEF REQUEST NUMBER 7, Revision 0 In early 2012 during the SL1-24 outage, the Unit 1 discharge headers were internally refurbished with Plascite coatings from the CCW Building to 45-degree elevation drop near the discharge canal.
This is the area that includes the existing bolted patch plates. The remainder of the two headers and overflow pipes were replaced with new carbon steel piping internally and externally coated with Plascite. This section is normally below the level of the discharge canal and requires divers for inspection.
As discussed above, the bolted patch plate repair is installed on the inside surface of the piping which isolates the damaged area from the corrosive environment. Also, the damaged area is covered with an epoxy coating prior to the repair, including filling the damaged areas for a smooth repair surface, and subsequent to the repair, further isolating the damaged area from the corrosion surface. There is therefore minimal potential for the damaged area to expand over time during service such that the repair would no longer be effective. Limitation on the life of the repair based on the potential degradation to grow to an unacceptable size for the repair or additional subsequent inspections is not required.
The design qualification process, installation process, and the post-installation inspections for the bolted patch plate repairs provide reasonable assurance of the structural integrity of the repair: The location of the defects and the potential additional damage that could occur if the defects were removed prior to the repair as required by the ASME Code, Section Xl support the request for an alternative to the ASME Code,Section XI requirement because complying with the requirement would represent a hardship or unusual difficulty without a compensating increase in the level of quality or safety.
- 6. Duration of Request This relief request is applicable to the St. Lucie Unit 1 Fourth Inservice Inspection Interval which began February 11, 2008 and ends February 10, 2018.
- 7. Precedents There are several precedents for installation of a repair without removal of the initiating defect.
These precedents limit the life of the repair because the repair leaves the damaged area exposed to the degradation environment and/or requires subsequent inspection of the damaged area to ensure that it does not grow to an unacceptable size for the repair. Examples of these precedents are listed below:

L-2013-240, 10 CFR 50.4, 10 CFR 50.55a, Att. 2, Rev. 0, Page 2 of 29 St. Lucie Unit 1 Min Wall Thickness and Bolted Plate Repairs-Line 1-30"-CW-29 and CW ICW Discharge to Canal 1.0 Purpose I Scope This calculation determines the pipe minimum wall thickness for Internal Corrosion per design formulas of ASME Section III and the criteria presented within UFSAR Table 3.9-3 for reviewing interactions of pressure stress and longitudinal bending stresses.
Revision 1 addresses application of bolted plate repairs on line I-30"-CW-29, which could also be applicable to line I-30"-CW-30. The subject lines have no isolation valves to the discharge canal and operate at near atmospheric pressure. The calculation reviews a repair methodology that blanks off the corrosion holes or deep pitting with bolted plates on the ID of the pipe. Calculation Parts 2-6 are added in Revision 1.
Revision 2 addresses the weight of the plates on the pipe, the shear of the bolting, the seismic properties of the plates and pipe and the Stress Intensity Factor of the bolting.
Calculation evaluates the required reinforcement versus the actual reinforcement available around the corrosion holes and reviews bolting requirements for the bolted plate which is analyzed as a blind flange.
Reinforcement interaction is reviewed for the multiple holes to ensure additional reinforcement is not required.
Calculation developed in support of AR 1730604.
2.0 Methodoloqv Part 1 The methodology used in the analysis is to:
- 1. Develop a minimum pipe wall thickness based on hoop stress.
- 2. Develop a minimum pipe wall thickness based on longitudinal stress calculated using the maximum allowed stress for each code equation.
- 3. The larger calculated minimum wall is used as the minimum wall criteria.
This analysis extrapolates the original pipe stress analysis to determine new longitudinal stress interaction ratios. A new pressure stress is calculated for the assumed wall thickness and the bending stresses within the interaction equations are extrapolated by the ratio of the nominal wall section modulus to the reduced wall section modulus.
Analysis assumes uniform wall reduction from the ID within the area of interest of the pipe run.
Additional local wall thinning may be acceptable with further analysis and information on actual wall thickness of surrounding areas.
2 Determine required and actual reinforcement areas and zones per ASME Section III, Subsection NC.
3 Determine repair plate thickness requirements per ASME Section III, Subsection NC.
4 Determine gasket loading and bolt requirements per ASME Section III Appendix E.
5 Review thread engagement using machinery principles.
6 Address interaction of reinforcement zones per ASME Section III, Subsection NC.

Equivalent materials are acceptable.
For specific materials used, see EC.
2 Fastener material will be SA-193 Grade B7 and SA-194-2H. Equivalent materials are acceptable.
For specific materials used, see EC.
3 Plate is on ID of Pipe. An arbitrary external pressure of 15 psig will be used to calculate gasket loading assuming zero pressure within the piping.
4 The addition of the stud holes and the required reinforcement area does not have a negative effect on the required reinforcement area of the branch connections as defined in the ASME Code Section NC-3643.3(c). Furthermore, the stud holes were not drilled beyond the minimum wall thickness.
5 The Stress Intensity Factor (SIF) was reviewed for the studs of each plate and was found to have a negligable effect on the result of Attachment 2. No additional evaluation was required however the conditions of Attachment 2 still apply.

When any two or more adjacent openings are so closely spaced that their reinforcement zones overlap, the two or more openings shall be reinforced in accordance with NC-3643.3(c) and (d), with a combined reinforcement that has strength equal to the combined strength of the reinforcement which would be required for the separate openings. No portion of the cross-section shall be considered as applying to more than one opening or be evaluated more than once in a combined area.
ASME III, Section NC-3643.3(f) defines reinforcement zone:
The reinforcement zone is a parallelogram the length of which shall extend a distance d2, on each side of the centerline of the branch pipe and the width of which shall start at the inside surface of the run pipe and extend to a distance, L, from the outside surface of the run pipe, when measured in the plane of the branch connection.
From Part 2, Cases 1 and 2, d 2 is the hole size for the location.
Based on review of PCA Engineering, Inc. UT readings (Att. 3):
The openings for closest holes are spaced sufficiently apart that the reinforcement zones do not overlap.
Therefore, additional reinforcement criteria per ASME Ill, Section NC-3643.3(f) is not required.

Calculation assumes general wall reduction due to Internal Corrosion Additional local wall thinning may be acceptable with further analysis, provided the wall thickness of the surrounding area is greater than the above minimum wall criteria.
Reinforcement Part 2, shows that hole sizes up to 30" diameter do not require additional reinforcement, provided the wall thickness in the surrounding areas is >0.328".

ASME Section III Edition 1971 through Summer 1973 Addenda provides stress intensification factors (SIFs) for various configurations which impose moment loading of piping components but does not address a branch hole with or without a bolted covering.
Stress indices and stress intensification factors (SIFs) are used in the design of piping systems that must meet Code requirements. SIFs are fatigue correlation factors that compare the fatigue life of piping components (for example, tees and branch connections) to that of girth butt welds in straight pipe subjected to bending moments.
As the subject opening with a bolted cover is not subjected to increased bending moments or externally applied loads, a SIF does not need to be applied to the configuration. Code criteria regarding reinforcement zones for a branch penetration apply.
Similarly, a SIF is not required for multiple openings. Code criteria regarding overlap of reinforcement zones for adjacent penetrations apply.

Subject:
UT data of CW-29 buried pipe results from 020312 pipe ID survey Attachments: Layout CW-29 Cells 1-6.pdf Attached find the current file from PCA showing the location of the pipe ID corrosion defects on the CW-29 underground ICW piping downstream of the CCW pit perimeter wall. The pipe run inspected is located on northbound run of CW-29 about 20 - 30 feet downstream of the elbow near the outbound ICW penetration in the east side of Unit 1 CCW pit. A few defects are thru wall.
The sketch of the ICW pipe ID surface, is laid out lengthwise from south to north. The "elevation" view is of the pipe split length- wise down the top centerline when viewed from the right (south) end at the elbow. The diagram shows a "plan" view of the pipe unrolled to a flat panel, with the 3 o'clock half on the top and th4e 6 o'clock half on the bottom. -
The pipe downstream of this location has had a limited inspection through a soiled surface. Additional surface cleaning may reveal additional defects. Therefore, discovery on CW-29 may not yet be complete.
There are a few relatively small diameter defects with a "conical" profile that shows corrosion initialing from the ID off the pipe.
Cold patch plates are suggested by PCA to prevent heat affected damage on the OD coating that results from weld repairs. The size of the proposed patch plates is shown on the detail sketches of the wall defects. Pictures of the defects are also included.
Information in Text Boxes was added by Carol Wallace based on Discussion with Richard Montgomery of PCA.

L-2013-240, 10 CFR 50.4, 10 CFR 50.55a, Aft. 2, Rev. 0, Page 29 of 29 Patch Plate Addition:
The purpose of this evaluation is to determine the impact on the affected pipe stresses and pipe support loads resulting from adding internal patch plates to the 1-30"-CW-29 and CW-30 piping lines (ICW Piping).
The subject piping is evaluated within calculation CW-2930-U1, Rev. 0. Per NAMS, the piping is classified as Quality Group C, Seismic Category I, or Class 3 Code piping.
The patch plates are 3/8" thick held in place with 1/4"-20 studs (SA-193 Gr. B7), and vary in overall size, and total number of studs. Review of patch plate drawings within EC-275443 and EC-275645 reveals that the largest patch plate is 11"x11". Conservatively considering a 12"x12" plate results in an added weight of 20 lb (12"x12"x0.375"xO.284 lb/in 3xl.2 (bolting) = 18.4 Ib). The ICW Piping is 30" OD having a wall thickness 0.375" (3/8"), and a weight of 118.7 lb/ft. The piping is shown on isometric drawing 8770-G-125, Sheet CW-F-10, Rev. 5. In accordance with the calculation of record CW-2930-U1, Page-10, the worst case OBE factor is 0.68, thus SSE is 1.36 (SSE = 2xOBE). Therefore, to account for seismic excitation the evaluated weight will be 30 lb (20 lb x 1.36g = 27.2 Ib).
In accordance with Specification SPEC-M-004, the SA-193 Gr. B7, 1/4-20 studs have Tensile Stress of 125 ksi, and a Yield Stress 105 ksi, and As is 0.0318 in2 . Thus the shear stress on a 1/4-20 stud resulting from the seismic loading of the patch plate is 943.4 psi < 21,000 psi (Shear Allowable per AISC 9t Edition) with the entire load on one bolt (flow force is negligible). The effect on the pipe stresses due to added patch plate (weight increase) will be evaluated using the results of the analysis of record as shown below:
Weight ratio factor = (added patch plate weight)/(analysis of record piping weight) = (30 lb +119 Ib) / 119 lbs = 1.25.
Since the percent increase in the pipe stresses is directly proportional to the weight increase, conservatively the deadweight and seismic stresses (maximum stress), including the unaffected pressure stresses, will be adjusted by the weight ratio factor (Note: CW-30 is worst case).
In addition, to account for the effect of any frequency change due to the increased weight, the above maximum seismic stresses will also conservatively be increased by a dynamic factor of 1.5.
Analysis of record EQ. 8 stress = 9,467 psi New EQ. 8 stress = 9,467 x (1.25) = 11,834 psi < 1.0 SH = 15,000 psi; thus o.k.
Analysis of record EQ. 9 stress (Seismic SSE) = 7,461 psi New EQ. 9 faulted stress = 7,461 x (1.25) x (1.5) = 13,989 psi < 1.8 SH = 27,000 psi; thus o.k.
Multiple plates: per drawing 8770-G-125, Sheet CW-F-3, Rev. 23, at CW-30 three (3) plates have been installed in close proximity to one another. There are two (2) 8"x8" plates and one 11 "x11" plate. The combined weight of these plates is 26.5 lb x 1.2 (bolting) = 31.8 lb. The conservatisms used in the above evaluation for the weight ratio for 30 lb is considered to be envelope the three plate scenario.
Based on the above, the affecte iping section meets the stress requirements of the design criteria for each individual patch plate I ca Prepared By: Date: / /1"3 Verified By: 2<Date: /[
