Subject:

Tenth Refuel Outage Steam Generator In-Service Inspection Report In accordance with Technical Specification 5.6.9, "Steam Generator (SG) Tube Inspection Reports," Exelon Generation Company, LLC is reporting the number of tubes plugged or repaired during the SG in-service inspection activities conducted during the Braidwood Station Unit 2 tenth refueling outage (i.e., A2R10). Technical Specification 5.6.9.a requires that following each in-service inspection of the SG tubes, the number of tubes plugged or repaired in each Scshati be reported to the NRC within 15 days. Therefore, we are providing this report by November 27, 2003.

During A2R10 refueling outage, which began November 4, 2003, eddy current inspection of the SG tubes was conducted. The scope of the inspection included 100% full-length bobbin coil inspection of the 2A, 26, 2C and 2D SGs. Fifty percent "Plus Point" Inspection of the hot leg top of tubesheet region, Row 1 and 2 U-Bend region and hot leg dents / dings > 5.0 volts was also conducted in the 2A, 2B, 2C and 2D SGs. Plus Point inspection was conducted on any bobbin coil indications classified as requiring additional diagnostic testing.

The SG tube inspections were completed on November 12, 2003. No tube sleeving was performed this outage. The Braidwood Unit 2 Steam Generator Tube Plugging Summary provides the inspection results during A2R1 0 and number of tubes removed from service to date by tube plugging.
