Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 ISI Program Revision 0 Document No. 5 th Interval-ISI-PTN-3/4-Program Plan January 21, 2015 1.6.1.17 Turkey Point will comply with the mandatory augmented examination criteria listed in 10CFR50.55a(g)(6)(ii)(F) regarding examination requirements for Class 1 piping and nozzle dissimilar-metal butt welds. However, Turkey Point does not have piping fabricated with UNS N06082 or UNS W86182 weld filler material. Therefore, although mandated, these criteria do not apply to Turkey Point.
1.7 System Classification System safety classifications, design and fabrication requirements meet the intent of 10CFR50.2(v) and Regulatory Guide 1.26, as identified within the Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR).
Water, steam and radioactive containing components (other than turbines and condensers) are designated Quality Group A, B, C, or D in accordance with their importance to safety.
1.7.1 System Classifications Class 1 system boundaries are developed based on 10CFR50.2(v), and the Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 FSAR. Class 2 and 3 system boundaries are developed based on Regulatory Guide 1.26 and the Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 FSAR.
System Quality Group classification interfaces between components of different quality groups are designated on various system piping and instrument diagrams (P&IDs) (see Section 13).
1.7.2 Optional Construction Optional construction of a component within a system boundary to a classification higher than the minimum class established in the component design specification does not affect the overall system classification by which the applicable rules of Section Xl are determined.
1.7.3 Containment Penetrations Portions of piping penetrating the containment vessel which are required to be constructed to Class 1 or 2 rules for piping, and which may differ from the classification of the balance of the piping system, may not affect the overall system classification that determines the applicable rules of Section Xl.
1.7.4 Class MC Components 10CFR50.55a was amended, effective November 22, 1999, to address the requirements of ISI of metal containment buildings. The Metal Containment Inservice Inspection Program, as addressed in the 2 nd Interval-IWE-PTN-3/4-Program Plan defines the classification of the areas to be examined.

Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 ISI Program Revision 0 Document No. 5 th Interval-ISI-PTN-3/4-Program Plan January 21, 2015 1.7.5 Class CC Components 10CFR50.55a was amended, effective November 22, 1999, to address the requirements of ISI of concrete containment buildings. The Concrete Containment Inservice Inspection Program, as addressed in the 12-ISI/IWL-PTN-3/4, defines the classification of the areas to be examined.
1.8 Inspection Program Plan Examinations for Class 1, 2, and 3 components and their supports are scheduled in accordance with the Inservice Inspection Program. This incorporates the criteria of IWB-2411, IWC-2411, IWD-2411, IWF-2410 and Tables IWB-2411-1, IWC-2411-1, IWD-241 1-1 and IWF-241 0-1 for the examination of Class 1, 2, and 3 components and their supports, respectively. Examinations are scheduled based upon previous 10-Year intervals, to the extent practical and within the limits of IWB-2420(a), IWC-2420(a),
IWD-2420(a) and IWF-2420(a).
In order to be consistent in determining percentages, FPL chooses to multiply the number of examination areas by the minimum or maximum percentages of the Inspection Program and rounding to the nearest whole number. This will be the number FPL uses for determining how many welds/components/supports will be examined each period.
The total numbers of Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 Class 1, 2 and 3 components and supports subject to examination at the start of the fifth interval are shown in the Summary Tables in Appendix B. The listing of these components and supports and their relevant ISI related details are maintained and updated on an ongoing basis in the Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 ISI database.
The 5 th Interval Turkey Point ISI database provides the data for the Inservice Inspection Schedule Tables for examinations of the major components for PTN 3 and 4 located in 5 th Interval-ISI-PTN-3-Schedule and 5 th Interval-ISI-PTN-4-Schedule, respectively. The 5 th Interval-ISI-PTN-3-Schedule and 5 th Interval-ISI-PTN-4-Schedule include tables that have descriptions of each component subject to examination, the required Code references, and any other pertinent information that is useful for determining examination requirements. The information and summary tables located in the 5 Interval-ISI-PTN-3-Schedule and 5 th Interval-ISI-PTN-4-Schedule satisfy the requirements of IWA-2420(b)(1) through (6) respectively.

Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 ISI Program Revision 0 Document No. 5 th Interval-ISI-PTN-3/4-Program Plan January 21, 2015 1.11 Branch Technical Position MEB 3-1 Branch Technical Position MEB 3-1 required FPL to determine where piping failure in fluid systems outside of the containment would have an adverse effect on other components and equipment. FPL completed a detailed engineering analysis of the Residual Heat Removal, Chemical Volume Control, Main Steam, Main Feedwater, Auxiliary Feedwater, and Steam Generator Blowdown systems in 1973. At that time, modifications to the plant were made to eliminate areas of concern. Based on this analysis, augmented ISI examinations on these systems are not required. (Ref. 16.38) 1.12 Plant Life Extension The purpose of the Renewed License Program (EN-AA-1 06) is to define the roles and responsibilities for the implementation of the License Renewal process and the actions that need to be completed for each unit after the Renewed Operating License is issued to include the post approval inspections and operation in the Period of Extended Operation (PEO).
The ISI Program Plan will implement the FPL commitment to manage the effects of aging for systems/structures/components within the scope of license renewal. The Section Xl Plan is credited as an aging management program for license renewal. As such, changes to the Section Xl Program Plan shall consider License Renewal requirements described in the Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 Design Basis Document, 5610-000-DBD-001, "Selected Licensing and Issues (SLI)",Section XVIII.
1.12.1 Licensing Renewal Commitment Documents PTN-ENG-LRAM-00-0027, ASME Section Xl, Subsection IWF Inservice Inspection Program Plan - License Renewal Basis Document, has been credited as a License Renewal commitment for performing the inspections as required by this document.
PTN-ENG-LRAM-00-0044, ASME Section Xl, Subsection IWB, IWC and IWD Inservice Inspection Program Plan - License Renewal Basis Document, has been credited as a License Renewal commitment for performing the inspections as required by this document.
PTN-ENG-LRNS-01-0019, RAI 3.2.4 A VT-1 visual examination will be implemented in addition to the Code required VT-3 visual examination for the reactor vessel core support lugs. This commitment is to be implemented in the fifth ISI interval during the period of extended operation.

Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 ISI Program Revision 0 Document No. 5 th Interval-ISI-PTN-3/4-Program Plan January 21, 2015 will correspond with ASME Section Xl reactor vessel inspections.
PTN-ENG-LR-00-0030 - A combination of volumetric inspections and destructive testing on a sample of small bore Class 1 piping and nozzles was performed at Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 during the fourth interval to verify that cracking is not an aging effect requiring management during the period of extended operation. A one-time volumetric (ultrasonic) examination was performed on five (5) 3 inch full penetration butt welds in each unit to look for evidence of cracking due to thermal and mechanical loading or intergranular stress corrosion. In addition, seven (7) small bore socket welds in each unit underwent destructive testing to look for evidence of inservice cracking. For each socket weld that was destructively examined, the NRC allowed equivalent credit to be taken for volumetrically examining two socket welds. The results of the ultrasonic examinations and destructive testing of the small bore butt and socket welds confirmed that there was no inservice cracking in the sample welds. Therefore, it was confirmed that inservice cracking in small bore piping at Turkey Point is not an aging issue and as such does not require additional management during the period of extended operation. No further action is required.
PTN-ENG-LRAM-00-0037, "Reactor Vessel Integrity Program - License Renewal Basis Document."
1.13 Successive Examinations The sequence of component examinations will be modified in accordance with the requirements of ASME Section Xl, IWB-2420(a), IWC-2420(a), IWD-2420(a) and IWF-2420(a). This allows FPL to alter the sequence of examinations to allow the examination of several components in an area during one outage instead of over several outages. This will reduce costs and radiation exposure. The percentage requirements of IWB-241 1, IWC-241 1, IWD-241 1, and IWF-2410 will be satisfied. The examination schedule is designed to optimize the performance of work within the plant to reduce radiation dose, eliminate interference with other work, and reduce costs.
1.14 NDE Examinations and Personnel Qualification/Certification All NDE will be performed in accordance with the requirements of ASME Section Xl, 2007 Edition with Addenda through 2008 with the following modifications as required by 10CFR50.55a.
1.14.1 Alternative Examinations (IWA-4520(b)(2) and IWA-4521)
Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 will not apply the provisions in IWA-4520(b)(2) and IWA-4521 of the 2007 Edition through 2008 Addenda which allow the substitution of ultrasonic examination for radiographic examination specified in the Construction Code. (Reference 10CFR50.55a(b)(2)(xix)).

1.14.3 Appendix VIII Requirements 1.14.3.1 10CFR50.55a(b)(2)(xiv) requires that all personnel qualified for performing ultrasonic (UT) examinations in accordance with Appendix VIII shall receive additional annual hands-on training. This requirement consists of at least eight hours of hands on training on samples containing cracks no earlier than six months prior to performing examinations at a licensee's facility. Turkey Point will comply with these additional training requirements for personnel performing Section Xl Appendix VIII, UT examinations.
1.14.3.2 In September 1999, 10CFR50.55a incorporated an expedited implementation schedule for ASME Section Xl, Appendix VIII. FPL implemented the requirements in accordance with the expedited schedule within the third 10-year interval for Turkey Point Units 3 and 4. For the fifth 10-year interval, FPL will implement the requirements of ASME Section Xl, 2007 Edition with Addenda through 2008 as modified by 1 OCFR50.55a and relief request, when approved.
2.0 Risk-Informed (RI) ISI Requirements 2.1 During the third and fourth 10-year intervals, Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 implemented a Risk-Informed selection criterion for Examination Category B-F and B-J piping welds.
This alternative to the requirements of Section Xl was submitted to the NRC during the third 10-year interval in letters dated January 19, 2000 and July 8, 2002. The alternative was authorized by letters dated November 30, 2000 and August 1, 2003 for the remainder of the third ISI interval ending February 21, 2004 for PTN-3 and April 14, 2004 for PTN-4. This alternative to the requirements of Section Xl was resubmitted to the NRC during the fourth 10-year interval as Relief Request #3 for Unit 3 by SE dated December 9, 2008 (TAC No. MD7740) and Relief Request #4 for Unit 4 by SE dated December 9, 2008 (TAC No. MD8875).
2.2 During the third and fourth 10-year intervals, the RI-ISI application was developed and implemented in accordance with the RI-ISI methodology of WCAP 14572, Rev. 1-NP-A, Addenda 1. This is typically referred to as the Westinghouse RI-ISI approach. During the fifth 10-year interval, Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 intends to convert their RI-ISI application from the Westinghouse RI-ISI approach to the EPRI RI-ISI approach that is in accordance with EPRI Topical Report No. TR-1 12657 and ASME Section Xl, Nonmandatory Appendix R. The RI-ISI application will also be expanded to include the examination of Class 2 piping welds currently addressed by ASME Section Xl, Examination Categories C-F-1 and C-F-2. Once the RI-ISI conversion to the EPRI approach is completed, the proposed alternative will be submitted via relief request for approval by the NRC. Until that time, Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 will implement the criteria of ASME Section Xl, Examination Categories B-F, B-J, C-F-1 and C-F-2 for the examination of Class 1 and 2 piping welds. Examination Category B-F vessel butt 26 of 60

SUBJECT:
TURKEY POINT NUCLEAR GENERATING UNIT NO. 3 - SAFETY EVALUATION FOR RELIEF REQUEST NO. I FOR FIFTH 10-YEAR INSERVICE INSPECTION INTERVAL - REPAIR OF PRESSURIZER STAINLESS STEEL HEATER SLEEVE WITHOUT FLAW REMOVAL (TAC NO. MF3834)
Dear Mr. Nazar:
By letter dated April 4, 2014, as supplemented by letters dated April 9, and April 14, 2014, Florida Power & Light Company (the licensee) submitted Relief Request No. 1 for the fifth 10-year inservice inspection interval of Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Unit No. 3 (Turkey Point 3). Pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of FederalRegulations (10 CFR),
Part 50, Section 55a(a)(3)(ii), the licensee requested the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to authorize an alternative to the requirements of 10 CFR 50.55a(g)(4) because compliance with the specified requirements would result in hardship or unusual difficulty without a compensating increase in the level of quality and safety.
During the Turkey Point 3 refueling outage that began in March 2014, the licensee observed evidence of leakage in the annulus between the outer surface of one heater sleeve and the pressurizer bottom head bore. The licensee requested NRC authorization of a proposed alternative to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Code,Section XI, 2007 Edition with Addenda through 2008, subparagraph IWB-3142.3, "Acceptance by Corrective Measures or Repair/Replacement Activity," which states that a component containing relevant conditions is acceptable for continued service if the relevant conditions are corrected by a repair/replacement activity or by corrective measures to the extent necessary to meet the acceptance standards of Table IWB-3410-1. The licensee's proposed alternative was to relocate the pressure boundary weld to the outside of the pressurizer bottom head shell and, thus, leave the flaw that caused the leakage in place. The licensee requested relief for one 18-month operating cycle.
The licensee requested the NRC to authorize the proposed alternative to support placing the pressurizer back in service for entry into Mode 4 from the Turkey Point 3 spring 2014 refueling outage. By electronic mail dated April 8, and April 10, 2014, the NRC staff requested additional information. During a conference call with the licensee on April 15, 2014, the NRC verbally authorized the licensee's use of Relief Request No. 1 for Turkey Point 3 for that unit's next 18-month operating cycle. The NRC staff's follow-up written safety evaluation is enclosed.
Relief Request 1 Al of A44
M. Nazar The NRC staff reviewed the subject request and concludes, as set forth in the enclosed safety evaluation, that complying with the requirements of subparagraph IWB-3142.3 would result in hardship or unusual difficulty without a compensating increase in the level of quality and safety and that the licensee adequately addressed all regulatory requirements in 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3)(ii). Accordingly, the NRC staff authorizes Relief Request No. 1 at Turkey Point 3 for that unit's current 18-month operating cycle.
All other ASME Code,Section XI requirements for which relief was not specifically requested and authorized in Relief Request No. 13 remain applicable, including third-party review by the Authorized Nuclear Inservice Inspector.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
By letter dated April 4, 2014,1 as supplemented by letters dated April 9, and April 14, 2014,2 Florida Power & Light Company (the licensee) submitted Relief Request No. 1 for the fifth 10-year inservice inspection (ISI) interval of Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Unit No. 3 (Turkey Point 3). Pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of FederalRegulations (10 CFR),
Part 50, Section 55a(a)(3)(ii), the licensee requested the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to authorize an alternative to the requirements of 10 CFR 50.55a(g)(4) because compliance with the specified requirements would result in hardship or unusual difficulty without a compensating increase in the level of quality and safety.
During the Turkey Point 3 refueling outage that began in March 2014, the licensee observed evidence of leakage in the annulus between the outer surface of one heater sleeve and the pressurizer bottom head bore at Heater Penetration No. 11. The licensee requested NRC authorization of a proposed alternative to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Code,Section XI, 2007 Edition with Addenda through 2008, subparaglraph IWB-3142.3, "Acceptance by Corrective Measures or Repair/Replacement Activity," which states that a component containing relevant conditions is acceptable for continued service if the relevant conditions are corrected by a repair/replacement activity or by corrective measures to the extent necessary to meet the acceptance standards of Table IWB-3410-1. The licensee's proposed alternative was to perform a "half-nozzle" repair that relocates the pressure boundary weld to the outside of the pressurizer bottom head shell and, thus, leave the flaw that caused the leakage in place, which was assumed to exist in the original J-groove weld attaching the heater sleeve to the pressurizer cladding. The licensee requested relief for one 18-month operating cycle.

Relief Request 1 Enclosure A3 of A44
The licensee requested the NRC to authorize the proposed alternative to support placing the pressurizer back in service for entry into Mode 4 from the Turkey Point 3 spring 2014 refueling outage. By electronic mail (email) dated April 8, and April 10, 2014,4 the NRC staff sent the licensee requests for additional information (RAIs). By letters dated April 9 and April 14, 2014, the licensee responded to the NRC staff's requests. During a conference call with the licensee on April 15, 2014, the NRC verbally authorized the licensee's use of Relief Request No. I for Turkey Point 3 for that unit's 18-month operating cycle that began after the spring 2014 refueling outage.5
2.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION
Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(3)(ii), the licensee proposed an alternative to 10 CFR 50.55a(g)(4) - specifically to the ASME Code,Section XI, subparagraph IWB-3142.3.
Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(g)(4), ASME Code Class 1, 2, and 3 components (including supports) must meet the requirements, except the design and access provisions and the preservice examination requirements, set forth in the ASME Code,Section XI, "Rules for Inservice Inspection of Nuclear Power Plant Components," to the extent practical within the limitations of design, geometry, and materials of construction of the components. Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(g)(4)(i) and 10 CFR 50.55a(g)(4)(ii), inservice examination of components and system pressure tests conducted during the first and subsequent 10-year inspection intervals must comply with the requirements in the latest edition and addenda of Section XI of the ASME Code incorporated by reference in 10 CFR 50.55a(b) 12 months prior to the start of the 120-month inspection interval, subject to the limitations and modifications listed therein.
Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55(a)(3)(ii), alternatives to the requirements of 10 CFR 50.55a(g) may be used when authorized by the Director of the NRC Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation if compliance with the specified requirements would result in hardship or unusual difficulty without a compensating increase in the level of quality and safety.
Based on its regulatory and technical evaluations in this safety evaluation, the NRC staff concludes that the regulatory authority exists to authorize the licensee's proposed alternative on the basis that compliance with the specified requirements would result in hardship or unusual difficulty without a compensating increase in the level of quality and safety. Accordingly, the NRC staff reviewed and evaluated the licensee's request pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3)(ii).
The code of record for the fifth 10-year ISI interval is the 2007 Edition with Addenda through 2008 of the ASME Code,Section XI, subject to the limitations and modifications in 10 CFR 50.55a(b).
4 ADAMS Accession Nos. ML14099A191 and ML14120A152, respectively.

Relief Request 1 A4 of A44
3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION
3.1 Licensee's Proposed Alternative ASME Code Components Affected and Applicable Code Edition and Addenda The components for which the licensee sought proposed alternatives are the pressurizer and pressurizer heater sleeve nozzle No. 11. The pressurizer heater sleeve is internally welded to the pressurizer lower head cladding. The components are examination category B-P, "All Pressure Retaining Components," Code Item No. B15.10. The stainless steel SA-213 TP316 sleeve has a 1.125-inch nominal outside diameter and a 0.095-inch wall thickness. The pressurizer lower head base material (carbon steel) is SA-216 Grade WCC. The cladding is austenitic stainless steel. The original construction code for the pressurizer is the ASME Code,Section III, 1965 Edition, including Addenda through summer 1965, Class A. The code of record for the fifth 10-year ISI interval is the 2007 Edition with Addenda through 2008 of the ASME Code,Section XI, subject to the limitations and modifications in 10 CFR 50.55a(b).
ASME Code Requirement for Which Relief is Requested The licensee requested relief from the requirements of the ASME Code,Section XI, IWB-3142.3, "Acceptance by corrective Measures of Repair/Replacement Activity," which states that a component containing relevant conditions is acceptable for continued service if the relevant conditions are corrected by a repair/replacement activity or by corrective measures to the extent necessary to meet the acceptance standards of Table IWB-3410-1.
In its letter dated April 4, 2014, the licensee stated that visual examination of the Turkey Point 3 pressurizer heater sleeve penetrations during the spring 2014 refueling outage revealed evidence of leakage in the annulus between the outer surface of the heater sleeve and the pressurizer lower head bore at Heater Penetration No. 11. The licensee stated that it performed manual nondestructive examination (NDE) from the sleeve bore using eddy current testing (ECT) after the heater was removed from the heater sleeve. The licensee stated that the ECT examination did not reveal a flaw in the sleeve. Therefore, the licensee concluded the most likely location of the flaw is in the partial penetration stainless steel weld between the heater sleeve and the stainless steel cladding on the inside of the pressurizer bottom head.
In its letter dated April 4, 2014, the licensee stated that removal of the flaw would constitute a hardship because removal of a flaw in the partial penetration weld would require the licensee to perform work from inside the pressurizer, which would result in high personnel radiation dose, personnel safety hazards, and potential foreign material generation. The licensee repaired Heater Sleeve No. 11 using the "half-nozzle" method, which relocated the pressure boundary weld to the outside of the pressurizer bottom head. The licensee requested a proposed alternative to the requirements of the ASME Code,Section XI, IWB-3142.3 to leave the presumed flaw in place in the original weld.
Duration of Proposed Alternative In its letter dated April 4, 2014, the licensee requested to apply the proposed alternative for one 18-month fuel cycle. In its letter dated April 4, 2014, the licensee also stated that during the next fuel cycle, it will perform additional analyses to justify the revised configuration with the Relief Request 1 A5 of A44
postulated flaw(s) remaining in place for the current inspection interval for Turkey Point 3, which expires on February 21, 2024.
In its letter dated April 4, 2014, the licensee stated that there are no known precedents for pressurizer stainless steel heater sleeve leakage requiring repair. The licensee stated that there is a precedent for evaluating flaw growth in carbon steel and low alloy steel base material caused by fatigue and that is exposed to reactor coolant in the pressurizer environment. The licensee stated that the evaluation for that precedent is, "ATTACHMENT (6) UNIT 1 PRESSURIZER HEATER SLEEVE AS-LEFT J-GROOVE WELD FLAW EVALUATION FOR IDTB [Internal Diameter Temper Bead) REPAIR - NON-PROPRIETARY," dated May 11, 2011,6 which was for the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant (CCNPP), LLC.
3.2 NRC Staff's Evaluation 3.2.1 Evaluation of Compliance with ASME Code Requirements The heater sleeves fall under examination category B-P; therefore, per IWB-2500, Table IWB-2500-1, they are subject to a VT-2 visual examination each refueling outage during the system leakage test conducted prior to plant startup. The table refers to IWB-3522 for acceptance standards, which states:
A component whose visual examination (IWA-5240) detects any of the following relevant conditions shall meet IWB-3142 and IWA-5250 prior to continued service:
a) any through-wall or through-weld, pressure retaining material leakage from insulated and non-insulated components; b) leakage in excess of limits established by the Owner from mechanical connections (such as pipe caps, bolted connections, or compression fittings) or from components provided with leakage limiting devices (such as valve packing glands or pump seals);
c) areas of general corrosion of a component resulting from leakage; d) discoloration or accumulated residues on surfaces of components, insulation, or floor areas that may be evidence of borated water leakage; or e) leakages or flow test results from buried components in excess of limits established by the Owner.
6ADAMS Accession No. ML11132A183.
Relief Request 1 A6 of A44
IWB-3142. 1(b) states:
A component whose visual examination detects the relevant conditions described in the standards of Table IWB-3410-1 shall be unacceptable for continued service, unless such components meet the requirements of IWB-3142.2, IWB-3142.3, or IWB-3142.4.
The licensee chose the option of IWB-3142.3 for acceptance with corrective measures or repair/replacement activities, which states that a component containing relevant conditions is acceptable for continued service if the relevant conditions are corrected by a repair/replacement activity or by corrective measures to the extent necessary to meet the acceptance standards of Table IWB-3410-1. The licensee implemented the repair in the form of a half-nozzle repair.
However, the licensee proposed an alternative to the Code requirements because the repair, while it will stop leakage and restore the pressure boundary integrity, will not remove the defect that caused the leak, which is presumed to be in the J-groove weld because itwas not found in the tube.
3.2.2 Evaluation of Hardship Because the flaw causing the leak is assumed to be in the original J-groove weld, removing the defect that caused the leak would require removing the original J-groove weld, which would have to be performed from inside the pressurizer. In its letter dated April 4, 2014, the licensee stated that removing the heater sleeve-to-pressurizer weld requires accessing the internal surface of the pressurizer and removing the weld and remaining sleeve base material. Such an activity would result in high radiation exposure to the personnel involved, which is considered a hardship. The licensee also stated that grinding and/or machining within the components would also expose personnel to safety hazards and could introduce foreign material in the pressurizer that could later affect fuel performance.
The NRC staff concludes that removing the original weld would result in a hardship to the licensee because of the radiation exposure to personnel, personnel safety hazards, and foreign material risk. The benefit to be gained with respect to safety from removing the original J-groove weld does not compensate for the hardship because, based on experience with similar half-nozzle repairs on similar nozzle configurations, there has never been a case of unacceptable flaw growth into the vessel. Therefore, in this case, the NRC staff concludes that to comply with the ASME Code requirement would constitute a hardship without a compensating increase in safety.
3.2.3 Evaluation of Leak Tightness and Structural Integrity The licensee requested relief from the ASME Code requirements of IWB-3142.3, which essentially allow a component with flaws to be accepted for continued service if the component is repaired or replaced to correct or remove the flaws or if the flaws are reduced in size such that the flaws would meet the acceptance criteria of the ASME Code,Section XI, Table IWB-341 0-1. The licensee's proposed alternative is to repair the heater sleeve using the half nozzle technique in which the bottom portion of the original sleeve is replaced with a new sleeve, and the pressure-retaining weld is relocated to the outer surface of the vessel. In the half-nozzle method, the remnant of the original sleeve, including the original J-groove weld, remains installed, but the original J-groove weld is no longer part of the pressure boundary.

However, it is possible that a flaw exists in the original J-groove weld, and this flaw could grow because of fatigue loads through the entire J-groove weld and the cladding beneath the J-groove weld into the carbon steel bottom head of the pressurizer. Therefore, the NRC staff evaluated the licensee's request for reasonable assurance that postulated flaws in the original J-groove weld will not grow into the carbon steel pressurizer bottom head to the extent that threatens structural integrity.
Establishment of Leakage Path in the OriginalJ-Groove Weld In its letter dated April 9, 2014, in response to the NRC's RAI No. 1, the licensee confirmed that it performed ECT on the entire heater sleeve bore and found no indications. By process of elimination, the licensee concluded that the flaw causing the leak is located in the J-groove weld because no through-wall cracking is present in the sleeve. However, this cannot be confirmed by NDE because ECT does not penetrate deep enough to detect flaws in the weld, and there is no qualified ultrasonic testing technique for inspecting J-groove welds. In its letter dated April 4, 2014, the licensee also stated that it performed a borescope examination of the original heater sleeve weld to the pressurizer, and it noted an area of discoloration around M.-inch in size along the reinforcing fillet weld face. However, the licensee did not identify any indication of cracking in the discolored region or in any other part of the weld that it viewed.
Based on the results of the licensee's ECT and visual examination of the heater sleeve and weld, the NRC staff concludes the leak path is most likely through the weld because the ECT examination detected no cracking in the sleeve itself.
Flaw Growth Assessment In its letter dated April 4, 2014, the licensee provided a qualitative evaluation of the likelihood of flaw propagation from the J-groove weld into the pressurizer bottom head shell material. The licensee's evaluation intended to demonstrate that there is a very low probability that such flaw propagation would occur during the one cycle duration of the proposed alternative. In its letter dated April 4, 2014, the licensee stated that the leak occurred since the last visual VT-2 inspection of the pressurizer bottom head performed in fall 2012 because no evidence of leakage was observed at that time. Therefore, the licensee concluded that the postulated flaw that caused the leakage must be confined to the J-groove weld because a crack through the weld alone would be sufficient to allow leakage, and additional time would have been required for the crack to grow into the cladding.
In its email dated April 8, 2014, in RAI No. 4, the NRC staff requested the licensee to address the possibility that the leakage may have required several cycles to reach the bottom head surface because of the roll expansion of the original sleeve into the bottom head. The NRC staff also asked whether this creates the possibility that the flaw causing the leakage may have had more time to grow into the cladding and the pressurizer bottom head. In its response dated April 9, 2014, the licensee stated that the purpose of the roll expansion of the pressurizer heater sleeve is to limit the loads on the existing internal weld, much like an interference fit of a nozzle.
The licensee further stated that while the roll expansion provides support for the nozzle, it is not expected to provide a watertight seal against the pressure and dilation stresses of the reactor coolant system (RCS). The licensee referred to industry operating experience (OE), including Relief Request 1 A8 of A44
Licensee Event Report (LER) 95-007-01 , which described similarly designed and installed pressurizer instrument nozzles with roll expansion that also exhibited leakage. The licensee stated that this OE, the Turkey Point 3 experience, and the interference fit penetrations in reactor vessel upper heads suggest that the breach of an inner diameter partial penetration pressure boundary weld will result in leakage. In its letter dated April 9, 2014, the licensee also stated that the pressurizer bottom head cladding was stress-relieved (i.e., post-weld heat treated) during fabrication, which would tend to reduce the crack growth rate through the cladding. The licensee also stated that several additional operating cycles would be needed for a crack to grow through the cladding, whereas leakage would begin as soon as the crack was through the J-groove weld. Finally, the licensee noted that its qualitative assessment already considers the possibility of crack growth by fatigue into the pressurizer bottom head shell.
The NRC staff reviewed the referenced industry OE and LER, which are for the same incident of leakage in stainless steel pressurizer instrument nozzles at the Surry Power Station, Unit 1 (Surry). The OE and LER do not quantify the amount of corrosion to the pressurizer shell but indicate that the corrosion was able to be machined out as part of the preparation of the nozzle bore for a new nozzle. Therefore, the NRC staff assumes the amount of corrosion associated with the Surry pressurizer instrument nozzle leak was not structurally significant, which indicates that the leaks had existed for one cycle or less. The NRC staff concludes that it is likely the leakage at Turkey Point 3 only required one cycle to reach the outside surface of the pressurizer bottom head based on experience with reactor pressure vessel (RPV) closure head nozzles with an interference fit. In such cases, 8 there was no significant corrosion or crack propagation into the vessel shell before leakage reached the surface. The NRC staff concluded the licensee's assumption that the flaw at Turkey Point 3 would not have grown significantly into the cladding is reasonable if leakage reached the surface in one cycle because the number of fatigue cycles occurring over one operating cycle is relatively small. Based on its review of the licensee's response to RAI No. 4 and other OE, the NRC staff concluded that it was highly probable that the leak had only existed for one cycle.
Assessment of Flaw Growth by Fatigue In its letter dated April 4, 2014, the licensee cited experience with previous fatigue flaw growth analyses for Combustion Engineering (CE) design pressurizers that were documented in WCAP-15973-P-A, 'Low-Alloy Steel Component Corrosion Analysis Supporting Small-Diameter Alloy 600/690 Nozzle Repair/Replacement Programs," Revision 0, dated February 2005. This document contains proprietary information and is not publicly available. A public version of the Westinghouse document, WCAP-1 5973-NP-A, Revision 0, is available in ADAMS. " The licensee also referenced a public version of the AREVA, Inc. Calculation 32-9156231-000.6 These analyses were for CE design pressurizer heater sleeves that have significantly larger J-groove welds than the Turkey Point 3 design. Therefore, the initial flaw that was postulated in these analyses was significantly larger than the initial flaw postulated for the Turkey Point 3 J-groove weld. In its letter dated April 4, 2014, the licensee stated these fatigue crack growth analyses yielded 7ADAMS Legacy Accession No. 9603050016.

acceptable results for a significant length of time, providing ample assurance that flaw growth into the Turkey Point 3 pressurizer bottom head would be stable for at least one cycle.
The staff reviewed the proprietary and nonproprietary analyses for CCNPP-1 in which the postulated J-groove flaw was found to be acceptable for 35 years, as documented in the NRC's safety evaluation dated December 9, 2011 .o The CCNPP-1 pressurizer heater sleeves have a similar geometry to the Turkey Point 3 heater sleeve, in terms of thickness, diameter, the vessel shell thickness, but have a larger J-groove weld area. The operational transients causing fatigue cycles should be similar in number and severity to those experienced by the Turkey Point 3 heater sleeves. However, to confirm this, in its email dated April 8, 2014, RAI No. 3, Part (a)(i), the NRC staff requested the number of operating transients applicable over the life of the plant for the Turkey Point 3 heater sleeves and whether any of these transients have the potential to be more severe than the corresponding transients in CE design pressurizers. In its response dated April 9, 2014, the licensee stated that the transients for CE design pressurizers are generally similar to those for Westinghouse designs, such as Turkey Point 3, because both are pressurized-water reactors (PWRs), and the CE design closely followed the Westinghouse design in its implementation. The licensee further indicated that one of the key differences is that the CE design has many more heatup (HU) and cooldown (CD) transient cycles than the Westinghouse design (i.e., 500 versus 200 cycles), which makes the use of the CE design transients conservative for use in evaluating the Turkey Point 3 heater sleeve. The licensee also indicated that the CE generic evaluation reported one transient type (i.e., 500 cycles of HU and CD (HU/CD) with a change in temperature (AT) caused by insurges and outsurges assumed to occur during HUICD) that was applicable to the pressurizer heater sleeve and contributed to fatigue crack growth. For the Turkey Point 3 pressurizer, the AT for the surge during HU/CU was consistent with the larger surge AT from the generic CE evaluation.
In Table 1 of its letter dated April 9, 2014, the licensee listed all the cycles applicable to the Turkey Point 3 heater sleeve, including revised AT and flowrate values based on the updated fatigue design basis from the extended power uprate. Some types of cycles listed in Table I were not considered in the generic CE evaluation. Although the AT values for these cycles were less than the insurge/outsurge AT, the NRC staff was concerned that these cycles could contribute to fatigue crack growth because of the large numbers of cycles over the life of the plant for some types of cycles, such as 5-percent changes in plant loading and unloading.
Therefore, by email dated April 10, 2014, the NRC staff provided RAI No. 5 to the licensee. In its response dated April 14, 2014, the licensee stated that in the CE generic evaluation, only the HU/CD and operating basis earthquake (OBE) transients made a significant contribution to fatigue crack growth. Furthermore, because the CE generic evaluation assumed a much larger number of HU/CD cycles over the pressurizer design life than Turkey Point 3 (i.e., 500 versus 200 cycles), fatigue crack growth for Turkey Point 3 should be bounded for the life of the plant.
The licensee also stated that the current evaluation is only for one 18-month cycle; therefore, the number of cycles expected to be accrued is only a small fraction of the design life cycles.
The NRC staff concludes that for the HU/CD transients with insurge/outsurge, the fatigue crack growth for Turkey Point 3 should be bounded over the life of the plant because the number of cycles considered in the generic CE evaluation is 150-percent greater or 2 %times than that for Turkey Point 3. The staff also compared the Turkey Point 3 information to the CCNPP-1
'oADAMS Accession No. ML 13360526.
Relief Request 1 A10 of A44
analysis, in which plant loading and unloading had no contribution to fatigue crack growth.
Therefore, the NRC staff expects that plant loading and unloading would not significantly contribute to fatigue crack growth for Turkey Point 3. The NRC staff also understands that Turkey Point 3 operates as a base-loaded plant (i.e., the plant generally operates at 100-percent power rather than increasing or decreasing power level based on the grid demand).
Therefore, plant loading and unloading transients and steady-state fluctuation transients should occur much less frequently than the numbers of these transients that are included in the design basis cycles of Table 1 of the licensee's letter dated April 9, 2014. Furthermore, Footnote 6 to Table I indicates the maximum AT for the steady state fluctuation transient occurs at 15-percent power, which is not a power level at which base-loaded plants normally operate for any extended period. Based on its evaluation of the information the licensee provided in its RAI responses dated April 9, and April 14, 2014, the NRC staff concludes that transients other than HU/CD and OBE will not significantly contribute to fatigue crack growth.
In its email dated April 8, 2014, the NRC staff requested in RAI No. 3.a.ii that the licensee identify the key parameters in determining the driving force for crack growth and final flaw stability of the postulated flaw in the Turkey Point 3 heater sleeve assembly. The NRC staff also requested the licensee to demonstrate that these parameters are bounded by the corresponding parameters of the CCNPP-1 heater sleeve assembly and the generic CE heater sleeve assembly evaluation. In its letter dated April 9, 2014, the licensee compared the rates of temperature change for the limiting transients for the generic CE heater sleeve assembly evaluation to that allowed for the Turkey Point 3 pressurizer. The information provided demonstrated the rate of temperature change for the limiting transient (i.e., CD) is similar, but the numbers are conservatively high for the generic CE design.
Based on the information provided by the licensee in response to RAls 3.a.i and 3.a.ii, the NRC staff concludes that the types of operational transients - specifically the HU/CD transients coupled with insurge - that dominate fatigue crack growth are similar for both the generic CE design and Turkey Point 3. The NRC staff also expects that the severity of the transients would be similar based on the similar AT for the surge and HU/CD rates. With respect to geometry of the generic CE and Turkey Point 3 heater sleeve assemblies, the generic CE analysis and the licensee's submittals indicated that the heater sleeve outer diameter and thickness and pressurizer bottom head shell and cladding thickness are similar. The major difference is in the dimension of the J-groove weld, which is much larger in the generic CE and CCNPP-1 heater sleeves. In its qualitative evaluation, the licensee assumed the flaw was the size of the Turkey Point 3 J-groove weld dimension of 3/16 inch. Therefore, because the transients are relatively the same, the driving force should be similar, but the resulting applied stress intensity should be less for Turkey Point because of the smaller flaw dimension.
The licensee also stated that because the cladding was stress-relieved, the fatigue crack growth rates in the cladding should be reduced compared to those in the J-groove weld, which is not stress-relieved. The licensee therefore concluded that if 42 years of operation were required for a fatigue crack to grow through the 3/16-inch J-groove weld, greater than 18-months would be required for the crack to grow another 3/16 inch.
Relief Request 1 All of A44
Based on a comparison of the licensee's analysis to the generic and plant-specific CE plant pressurizer flaw analyses, the NRC staff concludes the following regarding the Turkey Point 3 pressurizer heater sleeve:
- The controlling transients for fatigue crack growth are similar in severity, but a much larger number were assumed for the CE plants; therefore, fatigue crack growth for Turkey Point 3 should be bounded for plant life.
- The driving force for crack growth should be less for Turkey Point 3 because of the smaller initial flaw size. The licensee's assumption that the initial flaw is limited to the J-groove weld is reasonable based on the design of the heater sleeve and relevant OE.
- Because the Turkey Point 3 relief request is only for one 18-month cycle, fatigue crack growth over one cycle should be a small fraction of the expected amount for a 40-year life, which was found to be acceptable for the generic CE analysis, or for 35 years, which was found acceptable in the CCNPP-1 analysis.
Assessment of Flaw Growth by Stress Corrosion Cracking(SCC)
In its safety evaluation11 for WCAP-1 5973-P-A Rev 0, the NRC staff concluded that existing flaws in J-groove welds will not grow by SCC into the low-alloy steel material of the pressurizer bottom head provided that the licensee maintains low levels of oxygen (i.e., less than 10 parts per billion (ppb)) and halide (i.e., chloride and sulfate ion concentrations of less than 150 ppb) in the RCS chemistry for the previous two refueling cycles and maintains appropriate hydrogen overpressure on the RCS. In Section 3.1.1, "Chemistry Control Program," of its safety evaluation 12 for the License Renewal of the Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Unit Nos. 3 and 4, the NRC staff documents that Turkey Point 3 follows Revision 4 of the Electric Power Research 13 Institute (EPRI) Topical Report TR-105714, "EPRI Primary Water Chemistry Guidelines."
Following the EPRI guidelines will assure the conditions regarding contaminants and hydrogen will be met.
Based on OE in PWRs, which shows the resistance of carbon and low-alloy steels to SCC if good chemistry is maintained, and the conformance to the EPRI guidelines of Turkey Point 3, the NRC staff concludes that flaw growth caused by SCC into the pressurizer shell is extremely unlikely.
FinalFlaw Stability In its email dated April 8, 2014, the NRC staff requested in RAI 3.b that the licensee provide the material resistance to fracture (J-R) curve for the Turkey Point 3 pressurizer bottom head. The licensee instead provided the static initiation fracture toughness (K1c) curve for the SA-216, Grade WCC pressurizer bottom head material and compared the Kic value at the temperature at the end of CD of 70 degrees Fahrenheit (OF) to the K1c value used in WCAP-1 5973-P-A. The licensee stated that based on the Turkey Point 3 bottom head reference nil-ductility temperature (RTNDT) of 30 OF, the Kic at RTNDT plus 40 OF would be approximately 70 kilopound 1 ADAMS Accession No. ML050700431.

per square inch square root inches (ksia/in). For normal and upset conditions, the ASME Code,Section XI, IWB-3612 formerly required a margin for the ratio of crack-arrest fracture toughness (Kia) to the applied stress intensity factor (K,) be greater than the square root of 10 (Ka/K, greater than q10). However, the more recent editions of the Code, such as the 2007 edition with 2008 addenda, allow K1,/K1 greater than q10 for normal and upset conditions.
The K, values are larger than K1. value for the same temperature minus the RTNDT value.
Because the applicable ASME Code Section XI edition for Turkey Point 3 is the 2007 edition through 2008 addenda, KI, would be used in linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) evaluations for normal and upset conditions.
Ifthe applied stress intensity were the same for Turkey Point 3 as the generic CE analysis, the licensee's Kic value of 70 ksiqin would allow the IWB-3612 margins to be met for the most limiting transient evaluated by LEFM in the generic CE analysis. However, because both the generic CE analysis and the CCNPP-1 analysis used elastic-plastic fracture mechanics (EPFM) for acceptance of the final flaw in some cases, in its email dated April 10, 2014, the NRC staff requested in RAI 6 that the licensee provide the J-R curve for the Turkey Point 3 pressurizer bottom head material. In its letter dated April 14, 2014, the licensee responded to RAI 6 and indicated that a material-specific J-R curve was not available for the SA-216, Grade WCC material because there were no requirements for such toughness testing in the 1965 edition of the ASME Code,Section III to which the Turkey Point 3 pressurizer was constructed. The licensee indicated the J-R model used in the generic CE analysis was equally applicable to Turkey Point 3. The generic CE analysis used the J-R toughness model for typical RPV steel from Equation 17 in Revision 0 of NRC Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.161, "Evaluation of Reactor Pressure Vessels with Charpy Upper-Shelf Energy [USE] Less Than 50 Ft-Lb [foot-pounds],"14 modified by the use of a margin factor of 1.0 rather than 0.749. The NRC staff accepted the generic CE analysis because sensitivity studies performed by Westinghouse showed that the RG 1.161 acceptance criteriai 5 were still met even when the 0.749 factor was applied to the J-R curve, and with a structural factor of 9.0 on the applied J-integral value (JappIw).
The model proposed is applicable to a sulfur content of less than 0.01 8-percent and calculates the J-R curve based on a correlation with Charpy V-notch (CVN) USE. The licensee assumed a USE value of 70 ft-lb in lieu of plant-specific data for the Turkey Point 3 bottom head. To support its assumption, the licensee provided USE data for several heats of SA-216, Grade WCC material, including full CVN curves. The staff reviewed these curves and concluded the USE of these material heats is greater than 100 ft-lb. Therefore, the staff concludes the licensee's assumption of a USE of 70 ft-lbs for the Turkey Point 3 pressurizer bottom head is reasonable. The staff reviewed RG 1.161, and concluded that the J-R model used in the generic CE analysis is appropriate for the pressurizer bottom head material. Therefore, because the material resistance to fracture of the Turkey Point 3 material should be equal to or greater than the material resistance used in the generic heater sleeve analysis, the staff determined it to be acceptable.
With respect to the driving force for fracture for the final flaw, in its response to RAI 6, the licensee indicated that in the generic CE analysis, CD was limiting among the transients 14 ADAMS Accession No. ML003740038.
is Japplied is less than J0 .1, and AJappijd divided by aa (aJppjed/a) is less than BJnte, Voa at Japplied equal to Jm=a; where Jappuid is the driving force, Jo.1 is the material resistance at 0.1-inch crack extension, and Jmwtl is the material resistance curve.

evaluated by LEFM and that CD coupled with insurge/outsurge was evaluated by EPFM. The licensee implied the same transients would be limiting for the Turkey Point 3 heater sleeve.
Given the similar severity of the CD transients for the generic CE analysis and Turkey Point 3, the NRC staff concludes that the driving force for final crack stability should be similar for both.
However, the NRC staff notes that based on the information provided on the driving force for fatigue crack growth and the material fracture toughness, it is highly unlikely a flaw would approach critical size in one operating cycle.
General CorrosionEvaluation The licensee performed a general corrosion evaluation of the exposed carbon steel in the penetration. Based on industry data and AREVA's experience, the licensee estimated a corrosion rate of exposed carbon steel the bore of the lower head 0.0018 inches per year with 10-percent shutdown time during the operating cycle, and 0.0026 inches per year with 20-percent shutdown time during the operating cycle. Corrosion rates are higher during plant shutdowns because of higher oxygen concentrations. The NRC staff checked the licensee's estimated rate against the rate equation in WCAP-1 5973-P-A, Revision 0 and found that the licensee's corrosion rate is slightly more conservative and is therefore acceptable.
NRC Staff Conclusion on Leak Tightness and StructuralIntegrity Based on its review of the licensee's evaluation of the potential for crack growth into the pressurizer shell and the licensee's corrosion assessment, the NRC staff concludes that there is reasonable assurance that unacceptable flaw growth caused by fatigue or SCC will not occur in one operating cycle. The NRC staffs conclusion is based on a comparison of the licensee's analysis to quantitative flaw analyses performed on similar postulated flaws in similar components and on OE that shows that flaws in remnant welds have not degraded structural integrity when half-nozzle repairs have been implemented.
4.0 REGULATORY COMMITMENTS In its letter dated April 4, 2014, the licensee included a regulatory commitment that it will perform a bare metal visual examination of the Turkey Point 3 pressurizer heater sleeve area during the next (i.e., Cycle 28) refueling outage. The NRC staff's conclusions in this safety evaluation did not rely on the licensee's commitment to perform a bare metal visual examination.
5.0 CONCLUSION
Based on its review of the licensee's submittals, the NRC staff concludes that the licensee's proposed alternative - Relief Request No. 1 - provides reasonable assurance that the leak tightness and structural integrity of the Turkey Point 3 pressurizer will be maintained over the 18-month duration of the operating cycle for which the licensee requested relief. The NRC staff also concludes that complying with the requirements of IWB-3142.3 would result in hardship or unusual difficulty without a compensating increase in the level of quality and safety.
The NRC staff, therefore, authorizes the licensee's requested alternative for the duration of the current 18-month operating cycle for Turkey Point 3.

Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a (a)(3)(ii) Florida Power and Light (FPL) requests an alternative to the requirements of ASME B&PV Code, Section Xl, IWB-3142.3 "Acceptance by Corrective Measures or Repair/Replacement Activity. A component containing relevant conditions is acceptable for continued service if the relevant conditions are corrected by a repair/replacement activity or corrective measures to the extent necessary to meet the acceptance standards of Table IWB-341 0-1 ."
4. Reason for Request
FPL conducted visual examinations of the pressurizer heater sleeve penetrations during the current Turkey Point Unit 3 Refueling Outage. These examinations revealed evidence of leakage in the annulus between the outer surface of the heater sleeve and the lower head bore at heater penetration #11. There was no leakage observed at the other heater penetrations. Manual nondestructive examination (NDE) was conducted from the sleeve bore using the eddy current method after the heater was removed from the heater sleeve. The examination did not reveal any flaw in the sleeve. Therefore, the most likely location of the flaw is located in the stainless steel weld between the heater sleeve and the stainless steel cladding buildup.
The heater sleeve is roll expanded into the lower head bore and welded with a partial penetration weld to the stainless steel cladding buildup on the inside of the pressurizer lower head. The partial penetration weld joint does not extend into the lower head carbon steel base material.
The cladding is final stress relieved prior to welding the heater sleeve thereto. The cladding is approximately 3/8" thick and one layer of cladding of approximately 3/16" thick remains beneath the partial penetration weld. The heater is fillet welded to the bottom of the sleeve and extends upward through the two heater lateral support plates in the pressurizer.
To remove the heater sleeve-to-pressurizer weld requires accessing the internal surface of the pressurizer and removal of the weld and any remaining sleeve base metal. Such an activity results in high radiation exposure to the personnel involved which is considered a hardship. Grinding and/or machining within the components also exposes personnel to safety hazards as well as possible foreign material remaining in the pressurizer that could later affect fuel performance.

FPL proposes to leave the upper portion of the existing heater sleeve and its weld to the pressurizer lower head cladding in service.
- 5. Proposed Alternative and Basis for Use PROPOSED ALTERNATIVE:
The original weld will not be corrected and the heater sleeve base material will be removed to approximately the mid wall of the pressurizer lower head. The heater sleeve will be repaired by relocating the pressure boundary weld from the inside surface of the pressurizer to the outside surface. The repair is in accordance with the Class 1 requirements of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section III.
The "half-nozzle" method will be used for the repair to penetration #11. The heater is removed and the heater sleeve is severed below the pressurizer lower head. The remaining lower portion of the heater sleeve is removed by boring to approximately mid-wall of the lower head. The removed portion of the stainless steel sleeve will be replaced with a section (half-nozzle) of low carbon stainless steel which will then be welded to the outside surface of the pressurizer lower head using low carbon stainless steel weld filler. A new heater will be welded to the bottom of the replacement lower sleeve using low carbon stainless steel weld filler. The upper portion of the sleeve, including the partial penetration weld, will remain in place. (See Figure 1)
Heater sleeve welds on pressurizers with Alloy 600 material have been repaired by the industry using a similar "half-nozzle" technique. The half-nozzle method has been used at Calvert Cliffs Unit 1 and St. Lucie Unit 2.
The portion of the original heater weld to the pressurizer was examined with a borescope. An area of discoloration - Y2" along the reinforcing fillet weld face was noted. However, no indication of cracking was identified in the discolored region or any other part of the weld that was viewed.
The original heater sleeve remnant and weld will not receive any additional NDE. The new lower heater sleeve-to-lower head and heater/plug-to-lower heater sleeve pressure boundary welds, on the exterior surface of the pressurizer, will be examined in accordance with the applicable requirements of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Sections III and XI.
Relief Request 1 A20 of A44
BASIS FOR USE:
Since the heater sleeve material and sleeve-to-clad weld are generally not susceptible to a stress corrosion mechanism in the pressurizer environment it is presumed that the weld flaw(s) was the result of an original fabrication flaw that propagated from service.
Such service propagation could be a combination of thermal fatigue and/or SCC.
There has been no leakage at any other pressurizer heater sleeve location at Turkey Point unit 3 or unit 4. A review of industry operating experience (OE) from the 48 US PWRs with similar stainless steel heater sleeves welded to the interior clad surface, representing greater than 3800 heater sleeves and 23-42 years of service, has not identified a leak at this location. OE was identified at one US plant but the leak was at a location in the heater sleeve material outside of the pressurizer shell attributed to an anomaly in the tube adjacent to the weld. The greater than 3800 stainless steel pressurizer heater sleeves with 23-42 years of operating history represents greater than 100,000 sleeve years of service with occurrence of only this single leak in the weld.
This provides evidence of the excellent service history as well as the evidence of the lack of a generic condition.
The effects of propagation of any flaw(s) that remain in the original heater sleeve weld, by fatigue crack growth and stress corrosion cracking mechanisms are considered.
Postulated worst case flaws are assessed for flaw growth. The assessment concludes the structural integrity will not be adversely affected by postulated flaw(s) remaining in service for at least one fuel cycle.
Further characterization of the weld by NDE was not practical as discussed below. Due to its location in the inside of the lower pressurizer head, the original heater sleeve-to-pressurizer clad partial penetration weld is extremely difficult to access from the pressurizer manway, through the heater support plates and heaters, to perform NDE.
Also, if it was accessible, to fully characterize the flaw(s) causing leakage would require a volumetric examination method, such as an ultrasonic (UT) examination method.
However, the weld configuration around the sleeve outer diameter precludes UT coupling and control of the sound beam needed to perform flaw characterization and sizing, with reasonable confidence, of the measured flaw dimensions. If UT examination of the original partial penetration weld were attempted from the outside surface of the pressurizer lower head, the cladding interface would provide an acoustic mismatch that would severely limit this examination. This UT examination would also encounter scanning interferences due to adjacent heaters as well as the required long examination distances (i.e., metal paths) for interrogation of radial-axial oriented flaws at the opposite (inside) surface. These conditions would make accurate detection, characterization, and sizing of flaw(s) problematic.
Relief Request 1 A21 of A44
Currently, there is no qualified UT technique for examination of the original partial penetration weld or adjacent carbon steel pressurizer lower head material from either the inside or outside surface. Radiography of this area is also impractical because of the inability to position either a source or film inside the pressurizer. Additionally, other NDE methods, such as liquid penetrant, magnetic particle, and eddy current would not provide useful volumetric information needed for flaw characterization.
It is reasonable to assume that the existing flaw(s) is contained within the weld only, since eddy current examination did not reveal any indication in the heater sleeve, and has not progressed significantly into the cladding beneath the weld.
The cladding is subjected to post weld heat treatment (stress relief). As a result, the residual tensile stress state during normal operation is significantly less than the tensile stress state in the weld, which has not been stress relieved. During operation the cladding stress may even be compressive because the stainless steel coefficient of thermal expansion is greater than that of the carbon steel lower head. Therefore, the force driving a crack through the weld will be greatly diminished as the crack enters the cladding. For stress corrosion cracking (SCC), the reduced stress will lead to lower growth rates, and for cyclic loading (fatigue) the stresses will be alternating about a significantly lower mean stress, leading to reduced crack growth per cycle. Therefore is it reasonable to assume that the flaw that resulted in the leak through the 3/16" partial penetration weld after 42 years of service would take greater than one 18-month cycle to grow an additional 3/16" through the remaining layer of clad to reach the clad/carbon steel interface.
The current inspection performed at Turkey Point Unit 3 is a VT-2 exam every refueling outage, meeting the NEI-03-08 recommended inspection guidance and frequency provided by the PWR Owners Group. This examination is performed with the insulation in place. The Turkey Point Unit 3 pressurizer lower head is insulated with glass or mineral fiber insulation. At the time of the initial inspection the insulation configuration provided gaps around the leaking penetration and several other heater sleeve locations to permit examination of the base metal. A complete bare metal visual was performed at all 78 penetrations to determine the extent of condition.
The bottom of the pressurizer is visually inspected for leakage every outage, therefore the leak occurred since the last inspection. Since it took many years for the leakage to occur, there is no reason to believe that significant growth into the cladding would occur in only a few additional fuel cycles, especially due to its lower residual stress state and since the sleeve-to-cladding weld is no longer pressure retaining.
Relief Request 1 A22 of A44
Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that:
a) The existing flaw is completely contained within the pressurizer stainless steel cladding.
b) Crack growth from the cladding into the inside surface of the pressurizer lower head carbon steel base material will not occur over the next fuel cycle.
c) There are no flaw(s) driven by fatigue into the lower head carbon steel base material.
d) In the unlikely event that a, b, and c, are untrue, quantitative analysis of a similar configuration has demonstrated that a flaw starting at the cladding to base metal interface can grow for a significant length of time and remain stable with appropriate factors of safety.
Experience with fatigue flaw growth analysis in Combustion Engineering (CE) designed PWR pressurizers was performed by the PWROG in WCAP-1 5973-P-A Rev 0, as well as a plant specific analysis in NRC Accession MLI11132A1 83. The initial postulated flaw was significantly larger in the CE design since the pressure boundary J-groove weld prep is cut into the low alloy carbon steel lower head of the pressurizer, resulting in a significantly larger initial flaw than the Turkey Point Unit 3 original weld prep which remains in the stress relieved clad (Figure 1). These fatigue crack growth analyses yielded acceptable results for a significant length of time, providing ample assurance that a flaw growth into the ferritic steel head would be stable for at least one cycle.
The qualitative fracture mechanics assessment concludes that it is acceptable to allow postulated flaw(s) to remain in service and demonstrates the acceptability of the condition for at least one fuel cycle. Therefore the proposed alternative is being requested for acceptance in accordance with IWB-3142.3 for the next 18-month fuel cycle.
Corrosion of the exposed carbon steel in the half nozzle repair is also considered. The "half-nozzle" repair has a small radial gap between the heater sleeve remnant and the replacement lower heater sleeve and the bore in the pressurizer lower head and a small axial gap between the bottom of the heater sleeve remnant and the top of the replacement lower heater sleeve. As a result, primary coolant (borated water) will fill this crevice. Carbon steels used for reactor coolant systems components are clad with stainless steel to minimize corrosion resulting from exposure to borated primary coolant.
Since the crevice regions are not clad, the carbon steel is exposed to borated water.
Relief Request 1 A23 of A44
The carbon steel pressurizer lower head will not be significantly degraded by general corrosion as a result of the modification. Although some minor corrosion may occur in the crevice region on the carbon steel head the degradation will not proceed to the point that the structural integrity of the pressurizer will be adversely affected during its remaining service life, including the period of extended operation. Further, available laboratory data and field experience also indicate that continued propagation of cracks into carbon steel by a stress corrosion mechanism is unlikely.
For the carbon steel exposed to the primary coolant, galvanic corrosion, hydrogen embrittlement, SCC, and crevice corrosion are not expected to be a concern. Based on industry data and AREVA's experience, the corrosion rate of exposed carbon steel in the bore of the lower head is conservatively estimated to average 0.0018" per year with 10% shutdown time during the operating cycle and 0.0026" per year with 20% shutdown time during the operating cycle.
SCC of the stainless steel components (replacement heater sleeve and weld metals) is not likely because two of the three necessary synergistic elements of SCC (susceptible material and aggressive environment) are minimal or not present. Some residual stresses will likely be present adjacent to the weld in the replacement stainless steel items. However, this stress will likely not cause crack initiation or propagation because the other two necessary elements of SCC are minimal or not present.
Results of the stress analyses show that the structural integrity of the pressurizer will not be adversely affected for the remainder of its service life due to material loss in the lower head base material.
In conclusion, the ASME B & PV Code Section Xl requirement, IWB-3142.3, is to correct a component containing a flaw(s). The proposed alternative is to relocate the pressure boundary weld to the outside surface of the pressurizer and not correct the item(s) containing the flaw(s) but show by qualitative assessment that the material and the presence of the postulated worst case flaw(s) will not be detrimental to the pressure retaining function of the pressurizer for one fuel cycle.
- 6. Duration of Proposed Alternative Relief is requested for 18-month fuel cycle. During the next fuel cycle additional analyses will be performed to justify the revised configuration with the postulated flaw(s) remaining in place for the current inspection interval for Turkey Point Unit 3 which expires on February 21, 2024.
Relief Request 1 A24 of A44
- 7. Commitment FPL will perform a bare metal visual examination of the Unit 3 pressurizer heater sleeve area during the next Cycle 28 refueling outage.
- 8. Precedents There are no known precedents for pressurizer stainless steel heater sleeve leakage requiring repair. The modified configuration is similar to various half-nozzle repairs performed by the industry for Alloy 600 items that have experienced leakage that have typically been caused by primary water SCC. However, there is a precedent for evaluating flaw growth in carbon steel and low alloy steel base material due to fatigue that is exposed to reactor coolant in the pressurizer environment.

Response to Request for Additional Information Concerning Turkey Point Unit 3 Relief Request No. 1 for the 5 th Inspection Interval cc: Regional Administrator, USNRC Region II Senior Resident Inspector, USNRC, Turkey Point Nuclear Plant Florida Power & Light Company 9760 SW 344e SL, Florida City, FL 33035 Relief Request 1 A27 of A44
By email dated April 8, 2014, the Nuclear Requlatory Commission (NRC) staff forwarded to the Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) a request for additional information (RAI) concerning FPL's request for relief from a certain provision of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. FPL submitted the request for relief by letter L-2014-096 dated April 4, 2014. The FPL response to the NRC RAI follows.
NRC RAI By letter dated April 4, 2014, Florida Power & Light company (FPL, the licensee) requested approval to use an alternative to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (ASME Code), Section Xl, 2007 Edition, including Addenda through 2008. During the Turkey Point, Unit 3 refueling outage, the licensee observed evidence of leakage in the annulus between the outer surface of one heater sleeve and the pressurizer bottom head bore. The licensee specifically requested relief from the requirements of the ASME Code, Section Xl, IWB-3142.3, "Acceptance by Corrective Measures or Repair/Replacement Activity," which states that a component containing relevant conditions is acceptable for continued service if the relevant conditions are corrected by a repair/ replacement activity or by corrective measures to the extent necessary to meet the acceptance standards of Table IWB-3410-1. The licensee stated that it had determined that compliance with the specified requirements would result in hardship or unusual difficulty without a compensating increase in the level of quality and safety, therefore requested relief pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3)(ii). The licensee proposed to perform a "half-nozzle" repair which relocates the pressure boundary weld to the outside of the pressurizer bottom head shell and thus leaves the flaw that caused the leakage in place, which is assumed to exist in the original J-groove weld attaching the heater sleeve to the pressurizer cladding. The licensee requested relief for one 18-month operating cycles. The licensee's relief request is supported by a qualitative assessment of the potential for the growth of an assumed flaw in the original J-groove weld into the pressurizer bottom head shell. In support of its qualitative assessment the licensee cited experience with previous fatigue flaw growth analyses for Combustion Engineering (CE) -design pressurizers that are documented in References 1 and 2.
The staff requires the following addition information to complete its review of the relief request:
NRC RAI 1
- 1. Under "Reason for Request," the relief request states manual nondestructive examination (NDE) was conducted from the sleeve bore using the eddy current Relief Request 1 A28 of A44
method after the heater was removed from the heater sleeve, and that the examination did not reveal any flaw in the sleeve, the licensee stated that therefore, the most likely location of the flaw is located in the stainless steel weld between the heater sleeve and the stainless steel cladding buildup.
Confirm that the entire length of the original pressurizer heater sleeve bore was examined with eddy current testing.
FPL Response to RAI 1 As part of the removal of the heater, the heater sleeve end connection and a few inches of the sleeve were removed, leaving approximately 4 Y4" of the heater sleeve that protruded from the pressurizer shell. The remaining heater sleeve was approximately 9" long. The entire length of the remaining sleeve was examined by the ECT method and no crack like indication was identified.
NRC RAI 2
- 2. Was the pressurizer shell bore visually examined after the lower portion of the original heater sleeve was removed, and if so was any corrosion or degradation of the carbon steel pressurizer bottom head noted in this area? If so describe the type and extent of degradation including the amount of material lost.
FPL Response to RAI 2 Upon completion of boring out the lower portion of the original heater sleeve, the carbon steel bore of the pressurizer was visually examined. There was no evidence of material loss due to corrosion identified.
NRC RAI 3
- 3. The qualitative flaw assessment relies on the assumption that the existing flaw is completely contained within the pressurizer stainless steel cladding, that crack growth from the cladding into the inside surface of the pressurizer lower head carbon steel material will not occur over the next fuel cycle, and that there are no flaw(s) existing driven by fatigue into the lower head carbon steel base material. However, the licensee stated that in the unlikely event that these assumptions are untrue, quantitative analysis of a similar configuration has demonstrated that a flaw starting Relief Request 1 A29 of A44
at the cladding to base metal interface can grow for a significant length of time and remain stable with appropriate factors of safety. To enable the staff to determine whether these quantitative analyses in Reference 1 and 2 would bound the Turkey Point 3 heater sleeve, the staff requires the following additional information:
- a. To enable the staff to determine whether the driving force for crack growth and the stability determination of the final flaw in the Turkey Point, Unit 3 J-groove weld is bounded by the analyses in References 1 and 2:
- i. Provide the number and type of operating transients applicable for the life of the plant to the pressurizer heater sleeve J-groove weld, similar to the information contained in Table 4-3 of Reference 2. Discuss whether any of the transients applicable to the Turkey Point, Unit 3 heater sleeve would be significantly more severe that the corresponding transients evaluated in the fatigue crack growth analyses documented in References 1 and 2.
ii. Identify the key parameters in determining the driving force for crack growth and final flaw stability of the postulated flaw in the Turkey Point, Unit 3 heater sleeve assembly, and demonstrate these parameters are bounded by the corresponding parameters of the CCNPP-1 heater sleeve assembly evaluated in Reference 1 and the generic heater sleeve assembly evaluated in Reference 2.
- b. Demonstrate that the material resistance to fracture (J-R curve) of the Turkey Point, Unit 3 pressurizer bottom head is equal to or greater than the material resistance to fracture used in the crack stability evaluations in Reference 1 and 2.
The transients for Combustion Engineering (CE) designs are generally similar to those for Westinghouse designs, since both are pressurized water reactors, and the CE design closely followed the Westinghouse design in its implementation. One of the key differences is that the CE design has many more heatup (HU) and cooldown (CD) transient cycles (500 versus 200) than the Westinghouse design. This makes the use of the CE design transients conservative for use in evaluating the Turkey Point plant.
The CE generic evaluation [Reference 1] reported that only two transients contribute to fatigue crack growth. They are 500 cycles of HU/CD and 200 cycles of operating basis earthquake (OBE). However, OBE is only applicable to the hot leg (i.e., it is not applicable to heater penetrations). The temperature changes (AT) are 320°F and 220'F Relief Request 1 A30 of A44
for insurge/outsurge in the HU/CD transients. The applicable transients for the Turkey Point pressurizer are identified in [Reference 3] for extended power uprate (EPU) conditions; they are listed here in Table 1. As shown in Table 1, the surge temperature change for HU/CD is 320°F with 200 cycles each, which is similar to the temperature change of the transients evaluated in [1].

(7) Insurge assumed to occur at minimum THor. This transient may be grouped with the Large Step Load Decrease transient in component fatigue evaluations.
Relief Request 1 A32 of A44
As documented in the detailed flaw evaluation in reference 17 of [1], CD without insurge is used to calculate the maximum end of cooldown KI to compare with the KIC allowable for the stability evaluation. This transient cools down from 653°F to 200°F at 200°F/hr, then cools for 200°F to 120°F at 75°F/hr. HU/CD sequences with relatively large insurge/outsurge transients dominate fatigue crack growth. The temperature ranges are 320°F and 220°F for the HU/CD with insurge transients with 500 cycles.
Per reference 13 of [3], the pressurizer HU rate is limited to 100°F/hr and a maximum CD rate of 2000 F. This is similar to, or less severe than, the CD without insurge in [1].
As listed in Table 1, the HU/CD surge AT is 320°F [3] with 200 cycles each. This is also very similar to the transients evaluated in [1]. Therefore, the transients are similar, but the numbers are conservatively high for the CE design.
The pressurizer head is fabricated from SA-216 Gr. WCC cast steel, and the ASME Code KIC curve is directly applicable to this material. Over the years, a great deal of fracture toughness information has been obtained regarding this material, and a figure has been prepared to summarize the data as compared to the ASME Code reference KIC curve; see Figure 1. The fracture toughness was determined for nine heats of material, whose results are plotted [Reference 4]. Sufficient Charpy information was also obtained on these heats of material, and the NUREG-0800 method was used to estimate RTNDT, which was found to be 10°F for each heat. Figure 1 shows that the KIC curve is clearly appropriate for this steel.
Per [1], the KIC allowable for the pressurizer lower head (heater sleeves) at end of cooldown is 25.0 ksi4in, with RTNDT = 300F. The end of cooldown is 700F, conservatively using the RTNDT of 30 0 F, T - RTNDT = 400 F. The KIC at 40°F from Figure 1 is approximately 70 ksi4in, which is much higher than the KIC = 25.0 ksi4in used in [1]. Therefore, it is conservative to compare the CE stability evaluation in [1] to the Turkey Point plant.

NRC RAI 4
- 4. FPL concluded the leak occurred since the last inspection, since no leakage was observed during the previous refueling outage. However, since the original heater sleeve was roll expanded into the pressurizer bottom head shell, discuss the possibility that throughwall cracking of the J-groove weld may have occurred in earlier fuel cycles, since the tight fit might delay boric acid leakage from reaching the outer surface of the bottom head. If so, revise the qualitative assessment of flaw growth accordingly since the original postulated weld flaw would have had additional cycles to grow into the cladding and pressurizer bottom head.
FPL Response to RAI 4 The roll expansion of the pressurizer heater sleeve is to limit the loads on the existing internal weld much like an interference fit of a nozzle. While the roll expansion provides support for the nozzle it is not expected to provide a water tight seal against the pressure and dilation stresses of the reactor coolant system (RCS). INPO OE7490 and LER 95-007-01 (Docket No. 50-280) describes similar designed and installed pressurizer instrument nozzles with roll expansion which also exhibited leakage. This OE, the Turkey Point experience, as well as the interference fit penetrations in reactor vessel upper heads, suggest that the breach of an ID partial penetration pressure boundary weld will result in leakage.
As stated in the relief request, the cladding is subject to a post weld stress relief. The stresses in the clad are significantly reduced, if not compressive. It is reasonable to assume that a flaw that progressed through the pressure boundary weld to produce the leak, would take additional cycles to progress through the layer of clad (3/16" minimum) that separates the existing pressure boundary weld and the carbon steel base metal.
However, the assessments in References 1 and 2 both consider fatigue crack growth extension into the ferritic base metal before assessing the flaw stability. Therefore, the qualitative assessment does consider the flaw has progressed beyond the point of leakage and into the ferritic base material.

Response to Follow-up Request for Additional Information Concerning Turkey Point Unit 3 Relief Request No. 1 for the 5 th Inspection Interval cc: Regional Administrator, USNRC Region II Senior Resident Inspector, USNRC, Turkey Point Nuclear Plant Relief Request 1 A38 of A44
By email dated April 10, 2014, the Nuclear Requlatory Commission (NRC) staff forwarded to the Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) a follow-up request for additional information (RAI) concerning FPL's request for relief from a certain provision of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. FPL submitted the request for relief by letter L-2014-096 dated April 4, 2014 and responded to an initial April 8, 2014 RAI on April 9, 2014 (FPL letter L-2014-100). The FPL response to the April 10, 2014 RAI follows.
NRC RAI RAI 5 (Follow up to RAI 3a)
The response to Request for Additional Information (RAI) 3a in FPL's April 9, 2014 letter emphasizes that heatup and cooldown transients with insurge/outsurge transients dominate fatigue crack growth in the generic evaluation for Combustion Engineering (CE) designed pressurizers (Ref. 1, 2). In Table 1 of the RAI response, transients were listed that were not considered in the generic CE evaluation. Some of these transients have very large numbers of cycles over the life of the plant, such as plant loading at 5%
per minute, plant unloading at 5% per minute, and steady state fluctuations (initial and random). The temperature range for some of these cycles, although less than that of the insurge/outsurge during heatup and cooldown, is around 100 degrees F for some of these transients.
Would any of the transients listed in Table 1 that were not considered in the generic CE evaluation be expected to contribute significantly to fatigue crack growth? If not, provide an explanation for why these transients would not be expected to be significant contributors to fatigue crack growth. If any of the other transients would contribute significantly to fatigue crack growth, provide justification that fatigue crack growth for the Turkey Point, Unit 3 pressurizer would remain bounded by the generic evaluation.
FPL Response to RA1 5 Table 1 in the response to RAI-3.a. lists design transients for the Turkey Point Unit 3 and 4 pressurizers. The transients and cycles are generally similar between Westinghouse and Combustion Engineering (CE) designs, except that there are 500 heatup/cooldown (HU/CD) cycles in the CE design, and only 200 in the Westinghouse design. This makes use of the CE design calculation conservative for this application.
The CE evaluation in References 1 and 2 reviewed the pressurizer transients of the participating CE plants, and concluded that only HU/CD and operating basis earthquake (OBE) made any meaningful contribution to fatigue crack growth. The purpose of the pressurizer is to maintain system pressure while accounting for expansion and contraction of the system volume which occurs as the temperature changes. Most of the action in the pressurizer occurs as it experiences insurges and outsurges, with the Relief Request 1 A39 of A44
accompanying temperature changes in the bottom head and surge nozzle. It is also important to note that the transient cycles listed in the table in the response to RAI-3.a.
are for the design life of the plant, and the relief request is for only one operating cycle.
In response to RAI 3, Item b, FPL provided a graph of fracture toughness (Kic) versus temperature for the Turkey Point, Unit 3 pressurizer bottom head material. However, both of the heater sleeve flaw evaluations referenced in the relief request (Ref. 1, 2) used elastic-plastic fracture mechanics (EPFM) techniques to demonstrate stability of the final flaw, because the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (ASME Code), Section Xl linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) acceptance criteria were not met. This is specifically noted in Section 6.3.3.2 of Reference 3. Also in Reference 2, EPFM was used as the basis for accepting the final flaws.
Therefore, the staff requests that FPL (1) provide the material resistance (J-R) curve for the Turkey Point, Unit 3 pressurizer bottom head material (2) justify the use of the J-R curve in this application if it is not based on test data, and (3) demonstrate that the J-R curve is bounded by (i.e., provides equivalent or greater resistance to fracture) the J-R curve used in Refs 1 and 2.
FPL Response to RAI 6 The SA-216 Gr. WCC cast steel has a minimum yield strength less than 50 ksi, therefore, the ASME Code reference toughness curves apply directly to them. To further demonstrate this, additional fracture toughness tests were completed on materials of the same time period [4], and those were provided in the previous RAI response. This demonstrates that these materials are similar in behavior to those used in the previous evaluations, and the fracture toughness models used in those evaluations are equally applicable here.
The results summary sections of [1 and 3] listed stability results using the linear elastic fracture mechanics method (LEFM, K, versus Klc) for the transients, except insurge/outsurge. The end of cooldown (CD) is limiting among these transients. The elastic-plastic fracture mechanics method (EPFM, Japplied and J-R curves) was used to evaluate stability for insurge/outsurge transients. Per Figure 6-16 of [3], the limiting event for stability is 320°F CD in-surge.
There are no J-integral fracture resistance (J-R) curve data available for the pressurizer head SA-216 Gr. WCC cast steel materials, as this type of fracture toughness testing was not required in the 1965 ASME Section III Code. The material J-R curve used for Relief Request 1 A40 of A44
the evaluations in [1 and 3] was for typical reactor pressure vessel steel. The J-R curve was determined from Equation 17 of Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.161 (Ref. 5), without the margin factor (MF) of 0.749. As noted in Section 6.3.3.2.2 of [3], an MF of 1.0 was used since Japplied was conservatively multiplied by a factor of 3.0 in order to address the recommended safety factor (SF) of 1.15 and 1.25 for Levels A and B, respectively.
Furthermore, a lower bound Charpy upper shelf energy (CVNUSE) value of 70 ft-lbs [3]
was used in lieu of unavailable plant-specific Charpy tests of the pressurizer plate. This value is consistent with Branch Technical Position (BTP 5-2), Fracture Toughness Requirements, for pressure vessel materials.
The relevant input data used calculating Japplied and JMaterial are:
cy = 43.74 ksi, Material Yield Strength at Temperature @ 610-F CVNUSE = 70 ft-lb, Upper Shelf Energy from Charpy test The model for the J-R curve in equation 17 of [5] is:
JR = (MF) {CI(Aa)C2 exp[C3 (Aa)C4])
For high toughness materials, where the sulfur level is below 0.018%, the constants for this equation are provided in [5] as:
CI = exp[-2.44 + 1.13 In(CVN) - 0.00277 77 C2 = 0.077 + 0.116 InC1 C3 = -0.0182 - 0.00921nC1 C4 = -0.409 From this discussion and the preceding equation, it is shown that the J-R curve equation is primarily a function of the CVNUSE. For the J-R calculations shown in [3], the Charpy upper shelf energy was 70 ft-lb.
There are no plant specific data available for the SA-216 Gr. WCC cast steel used in the Turkey Point pressurizer heads. However, a number of heats of the same type of material were tested in [4], and full Charpy curves were obtained on three of them.
These Charpy curves, shown in Figure 1 through Figure 3, demonstrate that the upper shelf Charpy energy is at least 100 ft-lb for each heat. Tests also demonstrate that the sulfur level for these materials is typically less than 0.018 weight percent. Therefore, the Regulatory Guide equations used in [3] for the previous evaluation are directly applicable.
Relief Request 1 A41 of A44
Based on these evaluations, the model used in [1 and 3] is more limiting than a similar model based on the material of the Turkey Point Pressurizer head.
