Diablo Canyon Power Plant - 1 R 1 May 20, 2002 Steam Generator Tube Inspection Results Areas of discussion:
- 1. Primary to secondary leakage prior to shutdown:
A small P/S leak of 1.03 gpd existed prior to shutdown. It was first detected in August 1998.
Leakage during the most recent cycle averaged 1-2 gpd. It is -thought to be in SG 1-4 based on tritium analysis. There is a high probability this leakage is through a plug.
- 2. Results of secondary side hydro:
No secondary hydro was performed because the small leak rate would make it very difficult to find the leak with a secondary pressure test.
- 3. For each steam generator, a general description of areas examined; include expansion criteria and specify type of probe used in each area:
See attached table from the Degradation Assessment.
- 4. For analyzed EC results, describe bobbin indications (those not examined with RPC) and MRPC/Plus Point indications.
Include the following information:
location, number, degradation mode, disposition, and voltages/depths/lengths of most significant indications:
Discussion.
- 5. Describe repair/plugging plans for SG tubes that meet the repair/plugging criteria.
Discussion.
- 6. Discuss of previous history of SG inspection results, including any "look backs" performed.
Discussion.
- 7. Discuss in general any new inspection findings, including loose parts indications.
Discussion.
- 8. Discuss your use or reliance on the X-probe, if applicable.
The x probe was used to inspect 6 tubes in the WEXTEX area. This was for information only. These tubes had been inspected with +Point.
- 9. Describe in-situ pressure test plans and results; include tube selection criteria, test pressure plans, test configuration:
No in-situ testing was performed.

10.Describe tube pull plans and preliminary results; include tube selection criteria and evaluation plans:
No tubes were pulled.
11.Discuss assessment of tube integrity for previous operating cycle:
All inspection findings met the performance criteria for structural and accident induced leakage. Largest flaws by category will be discussed.
12.Discuss assessment of tube integrity for next operating cycle:
Based on the size of detected flaws, historical flaw growth rates, and planned cycle length, all tubes will retain adequate margin for structural and leakage integrity over the next cycle.
13.Provide schedule for steam generator-related activities during remainder of current outage.
Nozzle dams will be removed this afternoon.
14.Discuss what steps have been taken, or will be taken, in response to the lessons learned from the Indian Point Unit 2 tube failure.
Data quality and noise criteria have been established for Row 1 & 2 U bend data. Vertical RMS noise was measured in each tube U bend at both tangents and the apex. Noise measurements were compared with the EPRI ETSS 96 511 data set. Nine tubes were plugged because the U bend data did not meet the noise criteria.
In addition, please be prepared to discuss the following:
a) Discuss the actions that are taken in response to identifying a new degradation mechanism:
The DA would be updated to define inspection scope, techniques, etc for the new degradation in the current inspection. The finding would be entered into PG&E's corrective action program (i.e., an AR would be initiated). The preliminary OA would be modified to address the new degradation.
Growth rates and supporting information would be obtained as possible and the 90 day OA would address cycle length with the new degradation mechanism.
b) Discuss the actions taken to ensure that data noise levels are acceptable:
See item 13 above for U bends. Noise criteria have also been implemented for other + Point and bobbin inspection data.
c) Address data quality issues and the need for criteria to address data quality:
See item 14 above for U bends. Data quality criteria have also been implemented for other + Point and bobbin inspection data.
