Serial No.09-969 Docket No. 50-280 ATTACHMENT SURRY UNIT 1 180-DAY NRC REPORT REGARDING STEAM GENERATOR TUBE INSPECTION PER TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION 6.6.A.3 Surry Power Station Virginia Electric and Power Company

Serial No.09-969 Docket No. 50-280 Attachment 180-DAY NRC REPORT REGARDING STEAM GENERATOR TUBE INSPECTION SURRY UNIT 1 - SPRING 2009 END-OF-CYCLE 22 (EOC22) / REPLACEMENT-END-OF-CYCLE 17 (REOC17)

The following information satisfies the Surry Power Station Technical Specification (TS) reporting requirement section 6.6.A.3. During the Surry spring 2009 refueling outage, steam generator (SG) inspections were completed for all three SGs in accordance with TS 6.4.Q.

The Unit 1 SGs are now in the 3 rd inspection period which has a duration of 60 Effective Full Power Months (EFPM). The spring 2009 outage was the first outage of two in the second half of the 3 rd period.

TS 6.6.A.3 requires a SG Tube Inspection Report to be submitted to the NRC within 180 days following the unit exceeding 200 0 F. Unit 1 exceeded 200°F on May 9, 2009, therefore this report is required to be submitted by November 5, 2009. At the time of this inspection, the current SGs had operated for 251.0 EFPM since the first inservice inspection.

For EOC22, an Interim Alternate Repair Criterion (IARC) to address primary water stress corrosion indications was submitted for the bottom 4 inches of the tubesheet expansion zone (Surry Unit 1 Tech Spec Amendment 263). The IARC requires inspection of the tubesheet region, and plugging of any tubes which exhibit circumferentially oriented cracks greater than 940 in the 1 inch span above the tube-end, and greater than 2030 in the 3 inches above the 1 inch zone. Circumferentially oriented cracks of less than these magnitudes and all axial cracks are acceptable for continued operation in these regions. Leakage observed from the tubesheet expansion zone must be multiplied by a factor of 2.5 to determine accident induced leakage from the tubesheet region.

The report information is provided under each bold italicizedTS 6.6.A.3 item shown below.

A reportshall be submitted within 180 days after Tavg exceeds 200°F following completion of an inspectionperformed in accordance with the Specification 6.4.Q, "Steam Generator(SG) Program." The reportshall include:

a. The scope of inspectionsperformed on each SG The following Tables 1 through 3 primary side inspections were performed in the Unit 1 SGs during this refueling outage.

It should be noted that the original inspection plan called for the steam drum, J-nozzle, and top of bundle inspections in SG "C"; however due to outage schedule and work flow changes, these inspections were instead performed in SG "A".

SG "A":

  • Steam drum visual inspection and video documentation
  • Internal feed-ring visual inspection of all J-nozzle interfaces

" Visual top of tube bundle inspection via the primary moisture separator risers

  • Post Deposit Minimization Treatment (DMT) and pre-water lancing inspection of the flow distribution baffle
  • Investigation of 4 eddy current PLP calls

" Retrieval of two loose parts (small pieces of wire)

  • Attempted retrieval of an approximately 1/8 inch diameter x 7 inches long wire. This wire could not be removed due to its shape and the limiting distance between the tubes.

" Attempted retrieval of a small disc shaped object wedged between tubes. This object could not be removed.

Serial No.09-969 Docket No. 50-280 Attachment SGs A, B, C:

  • Baffle plate and top of tubesheet water lancing and sludge sample retrieval for chemical analysis
  • Post sludge lancing top of tubesheet foreign object search and retrieval (FOSAR)
  • Post sludge lancing quick look on top of tubesheet and baffle plates to determine lancing effectiveness
  • In bundle inspection passes to evaluate the effect of DMT and 3000 psi water lancing on legacy hard deposits

" Visual investigation of historical foreign objects

  • Application of the DMT cleaning process
b. Active degradationmechanisms found Degradation mechanisms targeted by the inspection plan included anti-vibration bar (AVB) wear, pitting, foreign object wear, tube support wear as well as stress corrosion cracking (SCC) at various locations within the SG tube bundle. AVB wear, foreign object wear, tube support plate wear, legacy maintenance-related wear, and legacy pitting flaws were detected. In addition, SCC was detected at the hot leg top of tubesheet in SG "A," and at the hot leg tube ends in all three SGs. Lists of service induced indications are located in Section "d".

g. The results of condition monitoring, including the results of tube pulls and in-situ testing Summary There was no reportable primary to secondary SG leakage during cycle 22; therefore, the Technical Specification operational leakage performance criteria was not exceeded during this operating period.

None of the volumetric tube degradation identified in Surry Unit 1 SGs during the EOC22 outage violated the structural performance criteria; thereby providing reasonable assurance that none of these flaws would have leaked during a MSLB event.

The condition monitoring evaluation of tube end cracks under the IARC methodology, and the in-situ pressure testing of the TTS PWSCC indication provide reasonable assurance that this degradation met the Technical Specification performance criteria and would not have exceeded the leakage assumed in the limiting accident analysis.

In summary, all degradation identified during the spring 2009 inspection satisfied condition monitoring requirements for SG tube structural and leakage integrity. More detailed discussion is provided below for each degradation mechanism identified.

AVB wear The appropriate bobbin probe technique performance data for detection and sizing of AVB wear is based on the EPRI NDE technique ETSS 96004.1. Eddy current sizing uncertainty parameters were applied to the reported 2009 depths to obtain an upper bound estimate of the limiting AVB wear flaw. This value (38.3%TW) was compared directly with the structural limit for AVB wear determined in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.121 requirements (64%TW for rows 9 to 11, 69.4%TW for rows 12 to 46). Since the limiting upper bound depth is well below the minimum structural limit, the condition monitoring structural integrity performance criteria were not violated by AVB wear.

Non-AVB Wear Volumetric Degradation Fourteen indications (13 tubes) of volumetric tube degradation not related to AVB wear were identified during this examination (Table 6). All but four of the indications had been identified and sized during previous examinations and were included as part of the pre-planned inspection scope for re-examination during EOC22. An eddy current signal comparison for all of these pre-planned indications confirmed that none had changed since the last inspection. However, the flaw previously reported in SG "A" R27 C84 at the hot leg baffle plate was resized with a slightly more conservative technique and the resulting depth (40%TW) necessitated plugging the tube.

One of the four indications (sized 24%TW) not reported previously was also in this tube at the same location.

Of the remaining three indications not reported previously, one (SG "A" R3 C66) had a 26%TW indication attributed to foreign object wear at the 5 1h TSP. Upon review of the historical data for this tube, a bobbin probe indication was confirmed to be present and unchanged since the 1997 inspection. No evidence remains of the foreign object believed to have caused this indication.

Page 13 of 21

Serial No.09-969 Docket No. 50-280 Attachment The remaining two indications not reported previously (SG "C" R10 C26 and SG "C" R38 C66) are both attributed to foreign object wear by objects no longer present at the affected location.

The sizing techniques used to determine the dimensions of the flaws listed in Table 6 are also identified in the table. The sizing performance of the techniques, along with the reported flaw dimensions were used to evaluate the structural integrity of the tubes.

To perform the CM for foreign object wear or other volumetric indications, the limiting degradation size must be compared with an appropriate structural integrity limit which accounts for the material property uncertainty, model uncertainties and NDE sizing uncertainties. Since the circumferential extent of all of the indications listed in Table 6 can be shown to be <1350, it is appropriate to use the EPRI Flaw Handbook "Part-Throughwall Axial Volumetric Degradation" flaw model to evaluate the CM limit.

Figures 1 and 2 provide the 95/50 CM limit curves for flaws sized with ETSS 27901.1 and 21998.1, respectively. The CM curves represent the structural performance criteria derived by conservatively accounting for material property uncertainties, model uncertainties, and NDE depth sizing uncertainties. The uncertainties were combined using Monte Carlo techniques as described in the EPRI Integrity Assessment Guidelines.

The figures also display the length and depth of each flaw. For all but SG "C" R10 C26, the plotted dimensions are as measured by eddy current. Because the flaw in SG "C" R10 C26 was deeper than the rest, the structurally significant depth and axial length are plotted. These dimensions were determined using the methods of the EPRI Integrity Assessment Guidelines, Section 5.1.5 which employs depth profiling to determine the dimensions of an equivalent rectangular flaw. Because each flaw plotted in Figures 1 and 2 lies below the CM limit curve, it is concluded that the structural performance criteria was not exceeded by any of the evaluated flaws.

TSP wear indication in SG "A" R2 C57 reported as 14%TW X 0.29 inches axially using ETSS 96910.1. This flaw is the same depth now as it was when initially detected in 2006. Applicable NDE sizing uncertainty with respect to this flaw is that associated with ETSS 96910.1:

Total Random Sizing Uncertainty at 95% CL: 12.31 %TW Adjusted 2009 %TW: [1.01] x [Field Call] + [4.30]

Compensating for this uncertainty yields an upper bound estimate of the 2009 depth (UB2009):

UB2009 = (1.01) x (14) + 4.30 + 12.31 UB2009 = 31%TW This is well below the Regulatory Guide 1.121 based structural limit of 56.6%TW. On the basis of this information, it is concluded that this flaw did not exceed the Technical Specification structural performance criteria.

In summary, none of the reported non-AVB-wear volumetric flaws exceed the condition monitoring structural performance criteria set forth by the Surry Technical Specifications. Based on this it is also concluded that none of these flaws would have leaked under accident conditions.

Serial No.09-969 Docket No. 50-280 Attachment Top of Tubesheet Stress Corrosion Crackinq To demonstrate that tube SG "A" R9 C69 met the Technical Specification performance criteria, in-situ accident leakage and structural proof testing was performed in accordance with the guidelines provided in EPRI, "Steam Generator In Situ Pressure Test Guidelines - Revision 3".

Leakage testing was accomplished using full tube pressurization. No leakage occurred during the accident level hold, or at any other time during the test; thereby successfully demonstrating that the tube met the Technical Specification accident leakage performance criteria. Proof testing at three times the normal operating pressure differential, adjusted for temperature and other factors relating to the test process, was performed with a bladder installed to ensure that any leakage that developed at the higher test pressure would not prevent the test apparatus from maintaining required test pressures. The tube was held pressurized at the required hold time without any difficulties and without causing rupture; thereby demonstrating that the Technical Specification structural and leakage performance criteria were met.

Tube End Stress Corrosion Crackinq Tube degradation located within the tubesheet expansion region presents no risk of burst because of the constraint provided by the tubesheet. Per the IARC Technical Specification Amendment, axial cracks within the tubesheet cannot result in tube burst or pullout. Therefore, the axial cracks identified during EOC22 do not violate CM structural requirements.

With respect to the CM structural evaluation for circumferential cracks, the key condition which must be considered is the ability of the tube-to-tubesheet joint to resist tube pull-out caused by end cap pressure loads under limiting operational and accident conditions. The IARC provides no guidance relative to the CM structural evaluation of circumferential indications which exceed the repair criteria; however, an extensive body of laboratory testing and analytical work provides the basis for concluding that none of the circumferential cracks violate the CM structural performance criteria.

It has been determined that an external retarding force of 3200 lbf. is required to prevent tube pullout under bounding operational scenarios. This value is developed based upon the load carrying capability of the remaining weld ligament of 235 degrees required by the IARC TS. It has also been determined that a tube that is severed at a distance of 0.5 inch from the tube end, and which has an expansion only from the point of sever to a point 4 inches above the tube end; has a restraining force capability of 4869 lbf for the tube in the bounding location in the bundle.

All other tubes would have a greater restraining force. This restraining force exceeds the required value of 3200 lbf. An alternate approach determined the minimum contact pressure during the limiting operational and accident conditions (NOP at minimum Tavg.) at the limiting tube location in the bundle and the limiting axial location in that tube. When this conservative value was applied over the tube from TTS-1 inches to TTS-17 inches in the most conservative location, a restraining force of 8096 lbf, which far exceeds the required value of 3200 Ibf, was the result. Once again, all other tubes in the bundle would exhibit a greater restraining force.

This information demonstrates that none of the circumferential tube end cracks identified in the Surry SGs during EOC22 could have resulted in tube pullout under limiting operating or accident conditions. Hence, the identified tube end cracks did not violate the Technical Specification structural integrity performance criteria.

Page 17 of 21

Serial No.09-969 Docket No. 50-280 Attachment Accident induced leakage could result from plant conditions that exacerbate existing degradation or that enhance potential leakage flow paths. The first would apply to tubing with degradation located outside the tubesheet such that an increased primary-to-secondary differential pressure could cause a tube failure or pop through during an accident. The only degradation identified in the Unit 1 SGs outside of the tube end region which could conceivably pop through during an accident was that of SG "A" R9 C69 which had an axial indication indicative of stress corrosion cracking at the TTS. However through in-situ testing, that tube was shown to be capable of withstanding limiting accident pressure differential with no leakage (discussed later). Therefore there was no degradation close to a pop through condition.

With respect to tube end cracking, the documentation supporting the IARC provides the basis for concluding that since there was no measurable operational leakage (less than 1.0 gpd) during the preceding operating cycle, tube end cracks would not have resulted in primary to secondary leakage exceeding the analyzed accident leakage during a design basis accident.

Less than one gpd times the leakage factor of 2.5 associated with the IARC and tube end cracks results in accident induced leakage being less than 2.5 gpd, well below the 470 gpd limit for the limiting SG. From this discussion, there is reasonable assurance that the accident induced leakage performance criteria would not have been exceeded during a design basis accident.

h. The effective plugging percentagefor all plugging in each SG There are no sleeves installed in the Surry Unit 1 SGs therefore, the effective plugging percentage is the same as stated in Table 10.
1. Following completion of a Unit 1 inspection performed in Refueling Outage 22 (and any inspectionsperformed in the subsequent operating cycle), the number of indications and location, size, orientation, whether initiated on primary or secondary side for each service-induced flaw within the thickness of the tubesheet, and the total of the circumferential components and any circumferential overlap below 17 inches from the top of the tubesheet as determinedin accordancewith TS 6.4.Q.3 The only service induced indications within the thickness of the tubesheet were those located below 17 inches below the top of the tubesheet and were characterized as primary water stress corrosion cracking (i.e., tube end SCC). None of the circumferential indications were overlapped circumferentially and no crack indications were identified in the cold leg. These results are summarized in the Table 11 below. Actual results can be found in Table 7.

m. Following completion of a Unit I inspection performed in Refueling Outage 22 (and any inspectionsperformed in the subsequent operating cycle), the primary to secondary leakage rate observed in each steam generator(if it is not practical to assign leakage to an individual SG, the entire primary to secondary leakage should be conservatively assumed to be from one steam generator)during the cycle preceding the inspection which is the subject of the report There was no reportable primary to secondary SG leakage during cycle 22, the cycle preceding the inspection which is the subject of this report.
n. Following completion of a Unit 1 inspection performed in Refueling Outage 22 (and any inspections performed in the subsequent operating cycle), the calculated accident leakage rate from the portion of the tube 17 inches below the top of the tubesheet for the most limiting accident in the most limiting steam generator To date, there has been no reportable primary to secondary SG leakage following the completion of the Refueling Outage 22 inspection; therefore, the calculated accident leakage rate from the subject portion of the tubes is zero.
o. Following completion of a Unit 1 inspection performed in Refueling Outage 22 (and any other inspections performed in the subsequent operating cycle), for the B steam generator,the number of permeability variation indications including location and total circumferential extent A large number of tube ends in both the hot leg and cold leg of SG "B" (1473 tubes affected) had permeability variation indications (PVNs) within 0.2 inches of the tube end. Examination of a sample using a magnetically biased probe demonstrated that the interfering signal could not be adequately suppressed. Due to the interference caused by the PVNs, the required tube end inspection could not determine which if any of the affected tubes may have cracks. As a result, Surry requested and was granted an emergency Technical Specification change to allow tubes in SG "B" with permeability indications within 1 inch from the tube end to remain in service for the next operating cycle. The technical basis for this License Amendment Request (LAR) assumes that a 360 degree through wall crack is masked by the permeability variation indication. The LAR noted that linear indications that were detected in the "B" SG would be dispositioned in accordance with the IARC criteria listed above; however, no tubes requiring plugging were identified.

The following table summarizes the total number of permeability indications reported in SG "B":
