RPV Head Design Reconciliation Design History
- The French and North Anna reactor pressure vessel (RPV) heads are of a similar design.
- The North Anna RPV head was constructed to a North Anna Design Specification.
- The French RPV head was constructed to an Electricit6 de France (EDF) Design Specification and the French Construction Code (RCC-M).
- Replacement RPV head provides industry standard solution to Primary Water Stress Corrosion Cracking (PWSCC) of penetrations.

RPV Head Design Reconciliation Reconciliation Plan
"* Safety-related design activities will be performed in accordance with the requirements of 10CFR50 Appendix B and 10CFR21.
"* ASME Section XI Repair/Replacement Program will be satisfied:
- A revised Design Specification will be prepared.
- A Report of Reconciliation will be prepared.

RPV Head Design Reconciliation Evaluation of Penetration Housing to Adapter Welds
"* The original Design Specification (Owner's Requirements) did not address friction welding. Therefore, a rigorous technical evaluation will be performed to verify the structural integrity of the friction welds. The following areas will be addressed:
- Manufacturer's friction welding procedure and performance qualification testing. Included are destructive testing requirements and manufacturer's records.
- Effectiveness of the manufacturer's welding process controls
- Effectiveness of the manufacturer's NDE techniques and performance demonstrations
- Application of the manufacturer's QA Program to control the friction welding process
- EDF operating experience with bimetallic friction-welded joints
- Belgian experience with friction weld reconciliation for equivalence between RCCM and ASME Code requirements
"* Evaluation will be documented in the Report of Reconciliation JDonminion
RPV Head Design Reconciliation
"* Implementation will be controlled by the existing Dominion Design and Quality Assurance Programs.
"* Dominion will evaluate manufacturer's QA Program to 10CFR50, Appendix B.
"* Dominion will audit the implementation of the manufacturer's QA Program.

Dominion - NRC Communications
- Open lines of communications will be maintained.
- Replacement activities schedules will be identified to permit NRC oversight.
- Engineering documents will be available for regional or headquarters review and inspection.

NRC's Oversight of the Reactor Vessel Head Replacement Project 71l Enclosure 2
NRC's Oversight (Continued) a The purpose of the staff's activities are to oversee the licensee's plans to replace the North Anna, Unit 2 Reactor Vessel Head with a vessel head manufactured to the French RCC-M standard.
NRC's Oversight (Continued)
Scope of Staff Review
"*Independent review of design, quality assurance, and licensing basis information for the currently installed vessel head.
"*Independent review of design, fabrication, quality records, and French regulatory oversight of the construction of the replacement vessel head.
NRC's Oversight (Continued)
Scope of Staff Review (continued) m Review of licensee's modification package, new design specifications, reconciliation report, and ASME data package.
- Oversight of onsite replacement activities.
- Review of post replacement maintenance and testing plans.
NORTH ANNA UNIT 2 HEAD REPLACEMENT plans to replace PURPOSE: The purpose of the staffs activities are to oversee the licensee's manufactured to the French RCC-M the North Anna Unit 2 Reactor Vessel Head with a head standard.
head as a design LICENSEE'S PROPOSAL: The licensee proposed to replace the modification, using the reconciliation provisions of ASME Section Xl. Design differences would The be addressed under the licensee's screening process for 10 CFR 50.59 determinations.
the 1st, 2nd, and French head (EDF RPVH no. 28) was built to the RCC-M, 1993 edition with 3rd addendum.
