Agenda Calvert Cliffs Unit 1 Refueling Outage Spring 2004

  • Meeting Objectives - M. Milbradt
  • Executive Summary - M. Milbradt
  • Inspection Scope - J. Haydin
  • Summary - M. Milbradt 2

Obj ectives Calvert Cliffs Unit 1 Refueling Outage Spring 2004

  • Common understanding of CCNPP approach to inspection
  • Common understanding of CCNPP nozzle configuration
  • Common understanding of Regulatory Compliance 3

Calvert Cliffs Unit 1 Refueling Outage Executive Summary Spring 2004

  • Unit 1 and Unit 2 heads have similar nozzle configuration
  • Relaxation granted for Unit 2
  • Plan same inspection approach on Unit 1 which will ensure structural integrity
  • We will comply with the order. We plan on submitting a relaxation request in January.

Bare Metal Visual Inspection Calvert Cliffs Unit 1 Refueling Outage Spring 2004

  • Unit 1 Exam - Spring 2002 results

- 100% visual examination of all penetrations

- No indications of leakage

- No indications of head wastage 6

  • 1Calvert Cliffs Unit 1 Refueling Outage Spring 2004 Inspection Unit 1, 2004 Visual Examination Plan Same approach as 2002
  • Same vendor and technique Acquire visual inspection data on every penetration and the rest of the surface 1AW the Order

- Previous exam identified minor amounts of extraneous material (covering a few square inches of head) which we intend to move to permit fill surface examination

Refueling Outage Unit 1 Volumetric Exam Spring2004 Consistent with Unit 2 2003 exam

- CEDMs with stationary guide/thermal sleeves

  • Blade Probe Ultrasonic Testing (UT)

- ICIs and vent line

  • Rotating Probe UT

- Leak path determination

- Eddy Current Test (ET) vent line weld 10

Volumetric Inspection Refueling Outage Spring 2004

  • Unit 2, 2003 Inspection Findings

- In some penetrations, thermal sleeve and penetration geometry prevented inspecting 2" above J-groove weld

- Probe configuration (over/under transducers) excluded bottom 0.5" of nozzle OD

- Unit 1 nozzle configuration is similar. We expect to achieve similar results to those achieved on Unit 2 11

Refueling Outage ozze Repa rs Spring 2004

- Remove a portion of the penetration nozzle and re-establish welded pressure boundary

  • ICIs and Head Vent Nozzles

- Manually remove defect and re-weld 12

Calvert Cliffs Unit 1 Refueling Outage Summairy Spring 2004 Examination Goals 100% visual examination of the top of the vessel head including 360° around each penetration

- UT of Alloy 600 penetration material

- Leak path assessment of CEDMs and ICIs

- ET of Head Vent

  • We will comply with the order. We plan on submitting a relaxation request in January.
