MILLSTONE POWER STATION UNIT 2 FOURTH 10-YEAR INTERVAL INSERVICE INSPECTION PROGRAM AND ASSOCIATED PROPOSED ALTERNATIVES AND RELIEF REQUESTS Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(g)(4), Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc. (DNC) submits the Millstone Power Station Unit 2 (MPS2) inservice inspection (ISI) program for the fourth 10-year interval applicable to Class 1, 2, and 3 components and component supports.
The ISI program manual, included as Enclosure 1 to this letter, describes the programmatic aspects of ISI examination of components and component supports. The enclosed ISI program does not address the piping examination requirements that will result from implementation of risk-informed technology. DNC is presently developing a risk-informed program for the examination of piping that will be applicable to Class 1 piping, as a minimum. Upon development of the risk-informed program and required supporting documents, a supplemental submittal to the Fourth 10-Year Interval ISI Program will be provided. This supplemental submittal will address the risk-informed scope and modifications to the examination requirements of affected piping components.
The ISI program has been developed in accordance with the requirements of the 2004 Edition (No addenda) of Section Xl of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. MPS2 will also comply with the limitations and modifications stated in 10 CFR 50.55a(b) as they apply to the implementation of the 2004 ASME Code. The fourth 10-year ISI interval began on April 1, 2010.
Pursuant to 10CFR50.55a(a)(3)(i), 10CFR50.55a(a)(3)(ii), and 10CFR50.55a(g)(5)(iv),
DNC requests the use of alternative examination or testing requirements and requests relief from certain examination or testing requirements of the 2004 ASME Code. The proposed alternatives and relief requests from specific 2004 code requirements are provided in Enclosures 2 through 6. NRC approval is required before the relief requests can be implemented. The MPS2 fourth 10-year interval ISI plan and associated requests for the use of alternatives and relief from specific 2004 ASME Code requirements have been reviewed and approved by the station's Facility Safety Review Committee.
Relief Requests (RRs) RR-04-02 and RR-04-03 were submitted to the NRC in a letter dated March 30, 2010 (Serial No.10-137), to support use of the RRs during the first refueling outage (2R20) of MPS2's fourth 10-year ISI interval.

MILLSTONE POWER STATION UNIT 2 INSERVICE INSPECTION PROGRAM FOURTH TEN-YEAR INTERVAL ABSTRACT This document describes the Fourth Ten-Year Inservice Inspection (ISI) Program for Millstone Power Station Unit 2 (MPS2). This summary addresses the requirements of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel (B&PV)
Code,Section XI, Division 1, 2004 Edition (No Addenda). Additional requirements for augmented inspections are also addressed.
Included are relief requests and tables identifying the components subject to examination by Code Examination Category and Code Item Number.
Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(g)4(ii), Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc. (DNC) is required, as a minimum, to develop this program to ASME Section XI, 2004 Edition (No Addenda). f An alternative to the ASME Section XI requirements for the ISI of Class 1 piping, Categories B-J and B-F were implemented during the third interval based on the risk-informed technology developed in accordance with the Westinghouse Owners Group Topical Report, WCAP-14572, Revision 1-NP-A. The request to use this alternative was submitted to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission on November 10, 2003 with approval received on April 1, 2005. The risk-informed program is being reviewed and updated as necessary for the MPS2 fourth ten-year inspection interval.
The ISI Program does not currently address the piping examination requirements that will result from the implementation of risk-informed technology for the fourth inspection interval. DNC is presently updating the risk-informed program for the examination of piping that will be applicable to Class 1 piping, as a minimum. Upon development of the risk-informed program and required supporting documents, a supplemental submittal for the fourth 10-year ISI Program will be provided. This supplemental submittal will address the risk-informed scope and modifications to the examination requirements of affected piping components.

Notes:
- 1. The MPS2 RPV head was replaced with a one-piece forging in 2005.
- 2. In accordance with 10 CFR 50.55a(b)(2)(xxi)(A), the 1998 Edition of ASME Section XI without Addenda must beapplied for Examination Category B-D, Item Nos. B3.120 and B3.140. Although the 1999 Addenda eliminated Code Item Nos. B3.120 and B3.140, these Code Item Numbers were still active in the 1998 Edition, and therefore are included in the MPS2 ISI Program Plan. However, per 10 CFR 50.55a(b)(2)(xxi)(A), a visual examination with enhanced magnification that has a resolution sensitivity to detect a 1-mil width wire or crack, utilizing the allowable flaw criteria in Table IWB-3512-1 may be performed in place of an ultrasonic examination.
.3. During the third ten-year interval, MPS2 implemented a risk-informed inservice inspection program for Class 1 piping welds (i.e.,
Examination Categories B-F and B-J). The risk-informed program is currently being updated and Table 2.2 will be populated upon completion of this update.
- 4. The examination and testing of snubbers is performed in accordance with the 2004 OM Code ISTD as permitted by 10CFR50.55a(b)(3)(v).
Preservice and inservice examination of snubbers is performed utilizing the VT-3 examination method specified in IWA-2213.

Classification Applicable Code Requirements General IWA-5000 Class 1 1WB-2500-1 (Examination Category B-P) and IWB-5000.
Clas~s 2 IWC-2500-1 (Examination Categories: C-B
[Item No. C2.33] and C-H) and IWC-5000 Class 3 IWD-2500-1 Examination Category D-B and 1WD-5000.
Table 5.1, System Pressure Test Schedule, lists each system within the scope of this program along with the required test type and schedule.
The Class 1, Class 2 and Class 3 boundaries shown on the applicable piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs) shall be used in determining test boundaries.
When pressure testing is performed at normal operating conditions, the Operations department shall be responsible for verification that system conditions are normal. Generally, the normal operating conditions are satisfied when the system is operating in a normal alignment with system pump(s) pressurizing the system.
System pressure tests have been designated as Zone 999 in the ISI database (see Section 2.8) and are not shown on Zone boundary drawings.
ASME Section XI, Table IWA-5210-1, lists applicable references to determine the appropriate type of system pressure test and related test parameters for each Code Class system. Typical system pressure test parameters are: pressure (as determined by type of test), temperature, holding time, and test boundary. System hydrostatic pressure testing, if required, will be performed on a case-by-case basis in accordance with the applicable code of record and site procedure, EN 21219, Elevated Pressure Test.

MILLSTONE POWER STATION UNIT 2 INSERVICE INSPECTION PROGRAM FOURTH TEN-YEAR INTERVAL Buried components require a pressure loss, change in flow, or unimpaired flow test in accordance with the requirements of IWA-5244. In some instances, it is impractical to perform pressure loss or change in flow tests on buried Class 2 and 3 piping segments bounded by butterfly valves. Relief Request No. RR-04-05 proposes that a verification of unimpaired flow test be performed for these piping segments.
Records of the visual examination conducted during a system leakage test shall include the procedure documenting the system test condition and system pressure boundary. Any source of leakage or evidence of structural distress shall be itemized, and the location and corrective action documented.

IMPLEMENTATION OF ASME SECTION XI, APPENDIX VIII Program Basis 10 CFR 50.55a, as amended by the Federal Register Published September 22, 1999, Volume 64, Number 183 (Final Rule) required expedited implementation of Appendix VIII, "Performance Demonstration for Ultrasonic Examination Systems". The effective date for the expedited implementation was November 22, 1999.
Effective Code DNC will implement Appendix VIE1, "Performance Demonstration for Ultrasonic Examination Systems" in accordance with ASME Section XI, 2001 Edition for the 4th Inspection Interval of MPS2.
Implementation Schedule DNC has implemented Appendix VIII in accordance with the following schedule as defined in 10 CFR 50.55a:
IMPLEMENTATION SUPPLEMENT QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS DATE 1
Evaluating Electronic Characteristics of May 22, 2000 Ultrasonic Systems 2 Wrought Austenitic Piping Welds May 22, 2000 3 Ferritic Piping Welds May 22, 2000 4 Clad/Base Metal Interface of Reactor Vessel November 22, 2000 5 Nozzle Inside Radius Section November 22, 2002 6 Reactor Vessel Welds Other Than Clad/Base November 22, 2000 Metal Interface 7 Nozzle-to-Vessel Welds November 22, 2002 8 Bolts and Studs May 22, 2000 9 Cast Austenitic Piping (In Course of N/A Preparation) 10 Dissimilar Metal Welds Novembe'r 22, 2002 11 Full Structural Overlaid Wrought Austenitic November 22, 2001 Piping Welds 12 Coordinated Implementation of Selected November 22, 2002 Aspects of Supplements 2, 3, 10 and 11 13 Coordinated Implementation of Selected November 22, 2002 Aspects of Supplements 4, 5, 6 and 7 14 Supplement 14: Qualification Requirements for November 22, 2002 Coordinated Implementation of Supplements 10, 2, and 3 for Piping Examinations Performed from the Inside Surface 12-1
MILLSTONE POWER STATION UNIT 2 INSERVICE INSPECTION PROGRAM FOURTH TEN-YEAR INTERVAL Performance Demonstration Program DNC will utilize personnel qualified through the Performance Demonstration Initiative (PDI) Program. PDI is an organization comprised of all the US nuclear utilities formed to provide an efficient, cost effective and technically sound implementation of Appendix VIII performance demonstration requirements.
Performance Demonstration Program Administrator DNC will utilize the EPRI NDE Center as the Performance Demonstration Administrator (PDA) in accordance with the PDI Program Description Document (PDD), Revision 4 1.
Supplement 1: Evaluating Electronic Characteristics of Ultrasonic Systems This Supplement defines the steps necessary to interchange the pulsars and/or receivers in an ultrasonic examination system without the need for requalification.
The PDI Program does not support this activity, but PDI will supply DNC with technical guidance as required on a case-by-case basis.
Supplement 2: Qualification Requirements for Wrought Austenitic Piping Welds The PDI Program is in full compliance with Supplement 2 as modified by 10 CFR 50.55a for examinations conducted from outside the piping. The PDI Program does not address examinations conducted from inside the pipe except for RPV nozzle-to-pipe welds. These examinations are included in Supplement 14, which is described later. Welds containing corrosion-resistant cladding (CRC) that is part of the pressure-retaining boundary, such as that typically applied to mitigate cracking are excluded. A recent Code inquiry indicates that these welds should be examined in accordance with Appendix HI until qualification requirements are developed.
Supplement 3: Qualification Requirements for Ferritic Piping Welds The PDI Program is in full compliance with Supplement 3 as modified by 10 CFR 50.55a for examinations conducted from outside the pipe. The PDI Program does not address examinations conducted from inside the pipe except for RPV nozzle-to-pipe welds.
Supplement 4: Qualification Requirements for the Clad/Base Metal Interface of Reactor Vessel The PDI Program is in full compliance with Supplement 4 as modified by 10 CFR 50.55a.
Supplement 5: Qualification Requirements for Nozzle Inside Radius Section The PDI Program is in full compliance with Supplement 5 as modified by 10CFR50.55a for examinations conducted from inside the reactor vessel.
The PDI Program is in full compliance with Code Case N-552 as modified by Regulatory Guide 1.147. For examinations conducted from outside the reactor 12-2
MILLSTONE POWER STATION UNIT 2 INSERVICE INSPECTION PROGRAM FOURTH TEN-YEAR INTERVAL vessel. Code Case N-552 is applicable to both the nozzle inside radius region and the inner 15% of nozzle-to-shell welds when scanning for flaws oriented transverse to the weld. Code Case N-552 requires that all nozzles be modeled, including the inner 15% of the nozzle-to-vessel weld, and introduces maximum metal path and maximum misorientation angles as new essential variables that must be qualified. Code Case N-552 is identified as an acceptable alternative in Regulatory Guide 1.147 and shouldbe identified in the ISI Program. Modeling will be the responsibility of DNC.
Supplement 6: Qualification Requirements for Reactor Vessel Welds Other Than Clad/Base Metal Interface The PDI Program is in full compliance with Supplement 6 as modified by 10 CFR 50.55a. In addition, the PDI Program considers that demonstrations conducted on clad vessel specimens in accordance with Supplement 4 exceed the requirements of Supplement 6 and may be used for examination of the inner 10%
of unclad components without a relief request. Demonstrations performed on unclad vessel specimens, however, may not be used for the examination of clad vessels.
Supplement 7: Qualification Requirements for Nozzle-to-Vessel Welds The PDI Program is in full compliance with Supplement 7 as modified by 10 CFR 50.55a. The title of this Supplement is somewhat misleading: originally intended as a stand-alone Supplement, the examination coverage requirements of 10 CFR 50.55a have resulted in this Supplement being applicable only to examinations conducted from the nozzle bore (for example, PWR inlet and outlet nozzles). Examinations of the inner 15% conducted from the outside for flaws oriented transverse to the weld are qualified according to Supplement 5 using, Code Case N-552 as above. Otherwise, Supplement 4 and 6 are applicable.
Supplement 8: Qualification Requirements for Bolts and Studs The PDI Program provides personnel only demonstrations for bolting. This demonstration covers a range of bolting types and sizes, using the typical equipment and other essential variables. Other variables to be used in each examination shall be demonstrated during calibration, prior to the examination.
Supplement 9: Qualification Requirements for Cast Austenitic Piping Welds In accordance with Appendix VIHI, specific qualification requirements are in the course of preparation, and the requirements of Appendix III are applicable.
Supplement 10: Qualification Requirements for Dissimilar Metal Piping Welds The PDI Program is not in compliance with Supplement 10. PDI qualifications are conducted in accordance with Code Case N-695. This Code Case is identified in RG 1.147, as acceptable and should be included in the ISI Program. A relief request will be required if the examination procedure is incapable of depth sizing flaws to an accuracy of 0.125 root mean square (RMS).

MILLSTONE POWER STATION UNIT 2 INSERVICE INSPECTION PROGRAM FOURTH TEN-YEAR INTERVAL Supplement 11: Qualification Requirements for Full Structural Overlaid Wrought Austenitic Piping Welds The PDI Program is in compliance with Supplement 11.
Supplement 12: Requirements for Coordinated Implementation of Selected Aspects of Supplements 2, 3, 10, and 11 The PDI Program is in full compliance with Supplement 12 as modified by 10 CFR 50.55a for the coordinated implementation of Supplements 2 and 3 for examinations conducted from the outside. It does not support the coordinated implementation of Supplements 10 and 11; these are performed on an individual basis. Supplement 14 is appropriate on a limited basis for examinations conducted from the inside surface.
Supplement 13: Requirements for Coordinated Implementation of Selected Aspects of Supplements 4, 5, 6, and 7 The PDI Program does not support this Supplement. Supplements 4, 5, 6, and 7 qualifications are performed on an individual basis.
Supplement 14: Qualification Requirements for Coordinated Implementation of Supplements 10, 2, and 3 for Piping Examinations Performed from the Inside Surface Supplement 14 is functionally applicable only to PWR vessels. It is a new Supplement established by the PDI Program for a coordinated implementation of the qualifications required for the typical examinations performed from the ID of PWR nozzles. Supplement 14 uses the more technically stringent Supplement 10 qualification as a base and then incorporates a limited number of Supplement 2
'and Supplement 3 samples. Qualification requirements for examination conducted from the inside surface are conducted in accordance with Code Case N-696.
Single Sided Access for Austenitic Welds The Final Rule requires that if access is available, the weld shall be scanned in each of the four directions (parallel and perpendicular to the weld) where required.
Coverage credit may be taken for single sided exams on ferritic piping. However, for austenitic piping, a procedure must be qualified with flaws on the inaccessible side of the weld. There are currently no qualified single side examination procedures that demonstrate equivalency to two-sided examination procedures on austenitic piping welds. Current technology is not capable of reliably detecting or sizing flaws on the far side of an austenitic weld for configurations common to US nuclear applications.
The PDI Program conforms with the Final Rule regarding single side access for piping. PDI Performance Demonstration Qualification Summary (PDQS) certificates for austenitic piping list the limitation that single side examination is performed on a best effort basis. The best effort qualification is provided in place of a complete single side qualification to demonstrate that the examiners qualification and the subsequent weld examination is based on application of the 12-4
MILLSTONE POWER STATION UNIT 2 INSERVICE INSPECTION PROGRAM FOURTH TEN-YEAR INTERVAL best available technology.
When the examination area is limited to one side of an austenitic weld, examination coverage does not comply with 10 CFR 50.55a(b)(2)(xv)(A) and proficiency demonstrations do not comply with 10 CFR 50.55a(b)(2)(xvi)(B) and full coverage credit may not be claimed.
DNC will document the affected austenitic welds for which best effort one sided exams are encountered and the percentage of the weld examined.
DNC will submit a request for relief of one sided examination of austenitic welds.
Credit will be taken for single sided access for ferritic welds and the weld shall be scanned in each of the four directions (parallel and perpendicular to the weld) where accessible.

3. Applicable Code Requirement
IWB-2500, Table IWB-2500-1, Code Category B-P, Item Number B 15.10 requires that all Class 1 pressure retaining components be Visual, VT-2 examined each refueling outage. The required system leakage test is performed at a pressure not less than the pressure corresponding to 100% rated reactor power. Per IWB-5222(a), during the system leakage test, the pressure retaining boundary shall correspond to the RCPB, with all valves in the position required for normal reactor startup. The visual examination shall, however, extend to and include the second closed valve at the boundary extremity. Per IWB-5222(b), during the system leakage test conducted at or near the end of the interval, the pressureretaining boundary shall extend to all Class 1 pressure retaining components within the system boundary.
4. Reason for Request
The IWB-5222(b) system pressure test which is performed once per ten-year interval is the subject of this request. The IWB-5222(b) test requires that portions of the Class 1,system which are not normally pressurized to the reactor coolant system (RCS) pressure associated with 100% rated reactor power, be pressurized to that pressure. Reasons for this request are grouped in Component Groups 1 through 3 and described in Sections 4.1 through 4.3. The following is a summary list of names for these groups of piping segments.

The segment boundaries are described in terms of valve-to-valve.
Each of these VTDB lines and connections are equipped with at least one manual valve which provides an isolation point to obtain double isolation of the RCPB. These valves are generally maintained closed during normal operation. The piping outboard of the first isolation valve is not normally pressurized. Under normal operating conditions, these VTDB lines and connections, except for the LPSI VTDB lines and connections, are subject to RCS pressures and temperatures only if leakage through the inboard valves occurs. For the LPSI VTDB lines and connections, leakage at inboard valves will only result in pressures associated with the pressure of the safety injection tanks.
Because these VTDB lines and connections typically do not have test connections that allow them to be individually pressure tested without design modifications, it will be necessary to open the inboard valves to pressurize these VTDB lines and connections to perform the IWB-5222(b) system pressure test.. Pressurization by this method defeats the double isolation feature and presents significant personnel safety concerns for the personnel performing the test on the valves that are at normal RCS pressure and temperature.
Performing this test with the inboard isolation valves open requires several man-hours to position or cycle these valves for the test and restore the valves after the test is complete.
Most of these valves are located in close proximity to the RCS loop piping and thus require personnel entry into high radiation areas within containment. Based on previous As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA) data, approximately 0.404 man-Rem of additional radiation exposure is expected from cycling the valves for testing. Since this test is performed near the end of an outage when all RCPB work has been completed, the time required opening and closing the valves on these VTDB lines and connections could impact the outage schedule.

4.2 Comonent Group) 2: "Low Pressure Safety Injection (LPSI) header pipe segments" -
The component Group 2 piping segments (24, 26, 28 and 30) are shown in Table 2.
Additional details are in Attachment 1, Table 2.

Segment boundary is described in terms of valve-to-valve.
The pipe segments of Group 2 are part of the LPSI system at Millstone Power Station Unit 2 (MPS2) and are continuously pressurized because they are in the injection flow path from the safety injection'tanks.
In order to perform the IWB-5222(b) system pressure test on these pipe segments it would be necessary to connect jumpers circumventing the inboard check valve boundaries from the RCS. This is a significant personnel safety hazard that also results in unnecessary personnel radiation exposure.

Piping Segment 32 is part of SDC. It cannot be pressurized to full RCPB pressure because of the pressure interlock and alarm that is associated with the SDC isolation valve 2-SI-652. Opening this valve is prevented when the RCS pressure exceeds 300 psig.
- 5. Proposed Alternative and Basis for Use The alternatives and basis for the MPS2 request are organized by component group discussions in the balance of this section. The provisions of 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3)(i) permit requests for alternatives in some of these component groups because the request provides for an acceptable level of quality and safety. For other component groups, the provisions of 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3)(ii) permit alternative requests when the specified requirements result in a hardship without a compensating increase in the level of quality and safety. The following list summarizes the application of these provisions in this request for relief. Refer to Tables 1 through 3 of both Section 4.0 and Attachment 1 for additional details regarding piping segment component groups and requested alternatives.
Group ' 10 CFR 50.55a Provision Section 1 (a)(3)(ii) 5.1 2 (a)(3)(i) 5.2 3 (a)(3)(ii) 5.3 5.1 Alternative and Basis for Component Group 1 MPS2 Group I Segmnents (1 through 23, 25, 27, 29, 31 and 33) are VTDB lines and connections that are equipped with manual valves, which provide double isolation of the RCPB. As an alternative to the IWB-5222(b) system pressure test requirements for these RCPB pipe segments, this request proposes to perform an ASME Code Section XI, Table IWB-2500-1 and IWB-522 1 system leakage test with the isolation valves in the normally Page 6 of 9
10 CFR 50.55a Relief Request RR-04-04 Serial No.10-323 (Continued) Docket No. 50-336 closed position. This examination will be performed at the nominal operating pressure associated with 100% reactor power after satisfying the ASME Code required hold time.
Basis for approval of this alternative includes the following information:
5.1.1. The non-isolable portion of the RCPB VTDB lines and connections will be pressurized and will be visually examined as required. Only the isolable portion of these small diameter VTDB lines and connections will not be pressurized, but a VT-2 examination will still be performed in these cases.
5.1.2. A typical VTDB line and connection includes two manual valves or one manual valve, separated by a short piece of pipe or a pipe nipple, which is connected to the RCPB via another short pipe nipple. These connections are typically socket welded and the welds receive a surface examination after installation. The piping and valves are normally heavy-walled. The VTDB lines and connections are not subject to high or cyclic loads and design ratings are greater than RCPB operating pressure.
5.1.3. MPS2 uses the ASME Code Section XI, 2004 Edition (No Addenda) for itsSection XI Repair/Replacement program activities, but the requirements exclude components or connections NPS 1" and smaller from the pressure test requirement after welded repairs. Therefore, requiring a pressure test and visual examination of the NPS 1" and smaller of Group 1 Class 1 RCPB VTDB lines and connections once each 10-year interval is unwarranted considering that pressure testing a repair weld on the same connections is not required by the ASME Code,Section XI.
Considering this information and the personnel safety and radiation exposure ramifications that would result from meeting the ASME Code Section XI, 2004 Edition pressure test requirements, compliance with the pressure test requirements for Groups 1 RCPB VTDB lines and connections results in an unnecessary hardship without a sufficient compensating increase in the level of quality and safety. Therefore, DNC requests approval of this alternative pursuant to 10CFR50.55a(a)(3)(ii).
5.2 Alternative and Basis for Component Group 2 Group 2 Segments (24, 26, 28 and 30) are part of the LPSI system and are continuously pressurized and monitored for pressure loss because they are in the open injection flow path from the safety injection tanks. As an alternative to the pressure test requirements for these RCPB pipe segments, DNC proposes to use the pressure associated with the statically pressurized passive safety injection system.
The basis for approval of this alternatiVe includes the following information. On February 22, 2005, ASME approved Code Case N-73 1, "Alternative Class 1 System Leakage Test Pressure RequirementsSection XI, Division 1,," (see Attachment 2).
ASME concluded that detection of leakage from a through-weld or through-wall flaw is affected by pressure, temperature, and time, with time being the controlling factor.
Application of Code Case N-731 is limited to safety injection systems that must be under pressure for an entire operating cycle. Use of the pressure associated with the statically Page 7 of 9
10 CFR 50.55a Relief Request RR-04-04 Serial No.10-323 (Continued) Docket No. 50-336 passive pressurized safety injection system is sufficient to prove leakage integrity for this piping. Because this alternative for Group 2 is specific to the LPSI piping at MPS2 that is continuously under pressure for the entire operating cycle, continually monitored for loss of pressure, and is included in the scope of the ASME approved Code Case N-73 1, use of this alternative provides an acceptable level of quality and safety. Therefore, DNC requests approval to use Code Case N-731 pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3)(i).
5.3 Alternative and Basis for Component Group 3 The MPS2 Class 1 RCPB pipe Segment 32 in Group 3 is part of the SDC system and is prevented from exceeding 280 psig by a pressure interlock on valve 2-SI-652. Additional protection is provided by a relief valve with a set point of 300 psig within the piping segment. The alternative to the IWB-5220 pressure is to examine this pipe segment at its normal operating pressure.
The basis for approval of this alternative is included in the following information:
The pressure interlock on valve 2-SI-652 and relief valve located within this pipe segment protect the SDC system from being over-pressurized by the RCS. To attempt to pressurize this segment to RCS pressure would require defeating the SDC system over-pressure protection, potentially endangering the plant.
Considering this information, the pressure testing requirements for Group 3 piping Segment 32 result in an unnecessary hardship without a sufficient compensating increase in the level of quality and safety. Therefore, DNC requests approval of this alternative pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3)(ii).
6.0 Duration of Proposed Alternative This relief is requested for the duration of the fourth inservice inspection (ISI) interval, which began on April 1, 2010, and is scheduled to end on March 31, 2020.
7.0 Precedents A similar Relief Request RR-89-56 was approved for MPS2 for use during the third inspection interval on September 27, 2007 (ADAMS Accession No. ML072620318).
A similar alternative to the ASME Code Section XI, 1989 Edition, IWB-5222 hydrostatic test requirements was approved for Indian Point Units 2 and 3 on December 7, 2005 (ADAMS Accession No. ML053110525). Additionally, a similar alternative to the 1998 Edition with the 2000 Addenda, IWB-5220 leakage test pressure for the 10-year ISI interval, was approved for Surry Units 1 and 2 on November 1, 2005 (ADAMS Accession No. ML052930032). Neither Indian Point nor Surry requested use of Code Case N-731 and the ASME Code edition differs for each request. However, the requirements of the ASME Code editions are similar and the requests resulted in not having to pressure test portions of the Class 1 RCPB to full RCS pressure and allowed reduced pressures for other piping segments.

--Hardship or Unusual Difficulty Without Compensating Increase in Level of Quality or Safety--
Reference:
ASME Section XI, IWA-5244(b)
Examination Category: D-B Item Number: D2.10
Description:
MPS2 buried piping segments consist of two trains of buried 24" Service Water System (SWS) supply piping from the intake structure to the turbine building. This piping is cement lined, cast ductile-iron material with an additional epoxy lining applied utilizing an in-situ form process to enhance long-term life.
Components: The applicable piping line number is identified as follows: 24"-
KE-1 (Reference P&ID 25203-26008, Sheet 2. An excerpt of the P&ID drawing is provided in Attachment 1 for information only).
2. Applicable Code Edition and Addenda
ASME Section XI, 2004 Edition (No Addenda)
- 3. Applicable Code Reuuirement The 2004 Edition of ASME Section XI requires that for "Buried Components" the pressure test requirements of IWA-5244(b) will be applied as follows:
For buried components where a VT-2 visual examination cannot be performed, the examination requirement is satisfied by the following:
(1) The system pressure test for buried components that are isolable by means of valves shall consist of a test that determines the rate of pressure loss. Alternatively, the test may determine the change inflow between the ends of the buried components. The acceptable rate of pressure loss orflow shall be establishedby the Owner.
(2) The system pressure test for nonisolable buried components shall consist of a test to confirm thatflow during operation is not impaired.
(3) Test personnel need not be qualifiedfor VT-2 visual examination.
Page 1 of 3
10 CFR 50.55a Request Number RR-04-05 Serial No.10-323 (Continued) Docket No. 50-336
4. Reason for Request
An alternative is requested from performing the pressure test using the pressure loss or change in flow methods described in IWA-5244(b)(1) for the buried piping segments of the Millstone Power Station Unit 2 (MPS2) SWS on the basis that compliance with the specified requirements would result in hardship or unusual difficulty without a compensating increase in the level of quality and safety.
The buried piping segments of the MPS2 Class 3 SWS piping are bounded by butterfly valves that are not designed or expected to provide an adequate leak tight boundary that is necessary for an accurate pressure decay test. Extensive maintenance or system modification would be required to conduct this test. For example, the valves would need to be replaced with valves that have better leakage control characteristics, or the valves would need to be removed from the system and blind flanges installed.
The configuration of the piping segments do not provide for a sufficient straight length of pipe to properly install a flowmeter for accurate flow measurement at the ends of the buried pipe segments. Therefore, it is not possible to compare a change in flow between the ends.of the buried components.
There is no annulus provided in which the areas at the ends of the buried components could be visually examined and there is no access to the buried sections without excavation.
- 5. Proposed Alternative and Basis for Use 5.1 Proposed Alternative Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc. (DNC) proposes to use, as an alternative to the requirements of 1WA-5244(b)(1); a verification of unimpaired flow in accordance with IWA-5244(b)(2) to provide an acceptable level of quality and safety. For each segment of the subject buried pipe, periodic flow, testing will be 'performed in accordance with Inservice Test (IST) Program surveillarnce procedures. These surveillance procedures require flow to' be measured, recorded and compared to established acceptance criteria to provide the assurance that flow is not impaired during operation.
5.2 Basis for Use Flow testing of the three MPS2 SWS pumps is performed quarterly and will use the established minimum flow rate specified in the ISTprocedures as the acceptance criteria for the pressure testing of the associated SWS buried pipe segments. The flow rate is currently specified as 10300 gallons per minute (gpm).
If during the IST surveillances the minimum flows cannot be achieved, the pump(s) would be declared inoperable and a condition report initiated in accordance with the Millstone Power Station Corrective Action Program with further corrective actions, as required, to restore the pump(s) and/or system to an operable. status; Additionally, internal visual inspection is performed on the buried pipe segments periodically during plant refueling outages to ensure' the piping and lining are not Page 2 of 3
10 CFR 50.55a Request Number RR-04-05 Serial No.10-323 (Continued) Docket No. 50-336 experiencing unacceptable degradation. For MPS2 this visual inspection is currently performed on alternating trains each refueling outage.
5.3 Discussion on Acceptable Level of Quality or Safety or Hardship Without A Compensating Increase in the Level of Quality or Safety Based on the hardship described above and the use of inservice flow testing to verify that flow through the buried piping is unimpaired, and in conjunction with the periodic internal visual inspections, this alternative provides an acceptable level of quality and safety.
The hardship is considered to be without a compensating increase in the level of quality or safety for the following reasons:
. These surveillance procedures require flow to be measured, recorded and compared to established acceptance criteria to provide the assurance that flow is not impaired during operation.
Internal visual inspections ensure the piping or lining is not experiencing unacceptable degradation.
The verification of unimpaired flow in accordance with IWA-5244(b)(2) provides an acceptable level of quality and safety considering the proposed alternative and its basis for use.
- 6. Duration of Proposed Alternative This relief is requested for the duration of the fourth inservice inspection interval, which began on April 1, 2010, and is scheduled to end on March 31, 2020.
- 7. Precedents A similar relief request for the third interval at MPS2 (RR-89-57) was approved in a letter dated July 10, 2008 (Serial No. 08-0437), (ADAMS Accession No. ML081720069).
In addition, a similar request for relief of buried Service Water piping was previously approved for Byron Station, Units 1 and 2 (Relief 13R-07) and Braidwood Station Units 1 and 2 (Relief 12R-46) by letter dated January 16, 2007, (ADAMS Accession No. ML063260074).

2. Applicable Code Edition and Addenda
ASME Section XI, 2004 Edition (No Addenda).
ASME Section XI, 2001 Edition (No Addenda) for Appendix VIII per 10CFR50.55a(b)(2)(xv).
3. Applicable Code Requirement
The 2001 Edition (No Addenda) of the ASME Code Section XI, "Rules for Inservice Inspection of Nuclear Power Plant Components," Subsection IWA-2232, requires ultrasonic testing (UT) examinations be performed in accordance with Mandatory Appendix I.
Paragraph 1-21 10(b) of Mandatory Appendix I requires examination of the RPV shell-to-flange weld to be in accordance with ASME Code,Section V, Article 4.
4. Reason for Request
The use of this alternative will allow the use of Performance Demonstration Initiative (PDI) qualified procedures for performance of the UT examination of the RPV shell-to7flange weld from the vessel side of the weld in accordance with ASME Code,Section XI, Division 1, 2001 Edition (No Addenda), Appendix VIII, Supplements 4 and 6. This alternative would be used in lieu of Article 4 of Section V requirements.

- 5. Proposed Alternative and Basis for Use Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc. (DNC) proposes to perform UT examinations of the RPV shell-to-flange weld using procedures, personnel, and equipment that have been demonstrated and qualified in accordance with ASME Section XI, 2001 Edition (No Addenda), Appendix VIII, Supplements 4 and 6 as amended by 10 CFR 50.55a and the PDI Program. Since the examination will be performed from a single side due to the weld configuration, all procedures, personnel, and equipment will be qualified for single side access for examination of this weld.
Appendix VIII requirements were developed and adopted to ensure the effectiveness of UT examinations within the nuclear industry by means of a rigorous, item-specific performance demonstration containing flaws of various sizes, locations, and orientations. The PDI process has established with a high degree of confidence, the capability of personnel, procedures, and equipment to detect and characterize flaws that could be detrimental to the structural integrity of the RPV. The PDI approach has demonstrated that for detection and characterization of flaws in the RPV, the UT examination techniques are equal to or surpass the requirements of the ASME Section V, Article 4 UT examination requirements. Though Appendix VIII is not required for the RPV shell-to-flange weld examination, the use of Appendix VIII, Supplements 4 and 6 criteria for detection and sizing of flaws in this weld will be equal to or exceed the requirements of ASME Section V, Article 4. Therefore, the use of the proposed alternative will continue to provide an acceptable level of quality and safety, and approval is requested pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3)(i).
- 6. Duration of Proposed Alternative This relief is requested for the duration of the fourth inservice inspection interval, which began on April 1, 2010, and is scheduled to end on March 31, 2020.
- 7. Precedents A similar Relief Request, RR-89-60, was approved for Millstone Power Station Unit 2 for use during the third interval in a letter from the NRC dated May 1, 2007 (ADAMS Accession No. ML070740465). In addition, a similar relief request (RR ISI-30) was approved for Union Electric Company for Callaway Plant, Unit 1 on April 7, 2004 (ADAMS Accession No. ML041.000516).

3. Applicable Code Requirement
The inservice inspection of the subject welds was initially performed in accordance with ASME Section XI, IWB-2500, Examination Categories B-F and B-J.
An alternative to the ASME Section XI requirements for the inservice inspection (ISI) of Class 1 piping, Category B-J and B-F welds, was implemented during the third interval based on the risk-informed technology developed in accordance with the Westinghouse Owners Group Topical Report "WCAP-14572, Revision 1-NP-A." The request to use this alternative was submitted to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) on November 10, 2003, with, approval received on April 1, 2005.
During the third interval, full structural weld overlays were applied to the'subject welds. ISI for the weld overlays was performed in accordance with Relief Request RR-89-6 1, Revision 2.
Note that all of the weld overlays addressed by this request have a minimum design life of 10 years.

4. Reason for Request
Currently, there are no NRC-approved, comprehensive criteria for a licensee for the
- performance of inservice examinations of'weld overlays, which have been applied as a repair or for preemptive measures, due to susceptibility of the underlying weld to primary water stress corrosion cracking (PWSCC).
The applications of the weld overlays at Millstone Power Station Unit 2 (MPS2) were performed in accordance with one time Relief Request RR-89-6 1, Revision 2, in the third interval based on the guidance of Code Cases N-504-3, N-638-1 and N-740. For the fourth interval, the subsequent examination of the weld overlays needs to be considered. Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc. (DNC) proposes- to address the examination criteria for the weld overlays identified in Relief Request RR-89-6 1, Revision 2, as described below.
- 5. Proposed Alternative and Basis for Use 5.1 Each weld overlay that was applied during the spring 2008 refueling outage (2R 18) was examined during the fall 2009 refueling outage (2R19). The weld overlay examinations showed no indication of crack growth or new cracking. The weld overlays have been placed into a unique population within the ISI Program to be examined on a sample basis. Similarly, each weld overlay that was applied in the fall 2009 refueling outage (2R19) will be examined during the first or second refueling outage following the overlay application. If the weld overlay examinations show no indication of crack growth, they will likewise be placed into this unique population within the ISI Program and be examined on a sample basis. The weld overlay population will be added to the ISI Program as new welds in accordance with IWB-2412(b) and a 25 percent sample will be inspected. These new welds will be reclassified as examination category R-A, Item Number R 1.20 For weld overlays on cast austenitic stainless steel, the preservice and inservice examinations cannot be performed for the entire weld examination volume in accordance with ASME Section XI, Appendix VIII, Supplement 11. For these weld overlays, after the first inservice examination, the required examination volume will be ultrasonically examined each inspection interval until such time as ultrasonic examination is qualified to examine the cast austenitic stainless steel portion of the required inspection volume. The inspection of these weld overlays shall not be credited to satisfy the 25% inspection sample.
5.2 The 25% sample shall consist of the same welds in the same sequence during successive intervals to the extent practical provided the 25% sample contains the welds that experience the highest operating temperature in the inspection item. If hot leg and cold leg welds are included in the same inspection item, the initial 25% sample does not need to include the cold leg welds. Those welds not included in the 25% sample shall be examined prior to the end of the mitigation evaluation period.

10 CFR 50.55a Relief Request RR-04-07 Serial No.10-323 (continued) Docket No. 50-336 5.3 The examinations shall be volumetric (ultrasonic) and shall meet the applicable requirements of Appendix VIII. The requirements for the examination volume and required thicknesses shall be as described in Attachment 1, Figures 1(a), "Examination Volume in Full Structural Weld Overlays," and 1(b), "Definition of Thickness tj and t2 for Application of IWB-3514 Acceptance Criteria."
5.4 Acceptance Criteria 5.4.1 General 5.4.1.1 The volumetric examinations shall be evaluated by comparing the examination results with the acceptance standards in 5.4.2.
5.4.1.2 Volumetric examination results shall be compared with recorded results of the preservice examination and prior inservice examinations. Acceptance of welds for continued service shall be in accordance with 5.4.2.
5.4.2 Acceptance 5.4.2.1 Acceptance by Volumetric Examination 5.4.2.1.1 A weld whose volumetric examination confirms the absence of flaws shall be acceptable for continued service.
5.4.2.1.2 Flaws shall meet the acceptance standards of IWB-3514 or be accepted for continued service in accordance with 5.4.2.2 or 5.4.2.3.
5.4.2.1.3 A weld with new planar surface flaws or unexpected or unacceptable growth of existing flaws shall be accepted for continued service in accordance with the provisions of 5.4.2.2 or 5.4.2.3.
- 5.4.2.2 Acceptance by Repair/Replacement Activity 5.4.2.2.1 A weld whose volumetric examination reveals a flaw not acceptable for continued service in accordance with the provisions of 5.4.2.3 is unacceptable for continued service until the additional examinations of 5.4.3 are satisfied and the weld is corrected by repair/replacement activity. in accordance with IWA-4000.
5.4.2.2.2 For weld overlay examination volumes (Figure I (a)) with unacceptable indications in accordance with 5.4.2.3.2, the weld overlay shall be removed, including the original defective weld, and the weld shall be corrected by repair/replacement activity in accordance with'IWA-4000.
Page 4 of 6
10 CFR 50.55a Relief Request RR-04-07 Serial No.10-323 (continued) Docket No. 50-336 5.4.2.3 Acceptance by Evaluation 5.4.2.3.1 Previously evaluated flaws that were mitigated by the full structural weld overlay need not be reevaluated nor have additional successive or additional examinations performed if new planar flaws have not been identified or the previously evaluated flaws have remained essentially unchanged.
5.4.2.3.2 A weld overlay whose volumetric examination detects planar flaw growth or new planar flaws that exceed the acceptance standards of IWB-3514 is acceptable for continued service without repair/replacement activity if the weld overlay meets the acceptance criteria of IWB-3600 and the additional examinations of 5.4.3 are performed in the current outage. The weld containing the flaw shall be reexamined in accordance with Table I of Code Case N-770-1. If a planar flaw is.detected in the outer 25% of the original weld/base metal thickness for the examination volume it, is acceptable for continued service if the crack growth calculations and structural design and sizing calculations required for original weld overlay acceptance show or are revised to show acceptability of the detected flaw. Any indication in the weld overlay material characterized as stress corrosion cracking is unacceptable.
5.4.3 Additional Examinations 5.4.3.1 Examinations of additional weld overlays during the current outage are required if unacceptable planar flaws are detected in the weld overlay thickness, or this examination reveals crack growth into the examination volume larger than predicted by the previous 5.4.2.3 analysis, or examination volumes reveal axial crack growth beyond the specified examination volume.
The number of additional weld examinations shall be equal to the number of weld overlays originally scheduled to be performed during the present inspection period. The additional examinations shall be selected from welds of similar materials, construction and the same or higher operating
'temperature.
5.4.3.2 If the additional examinations required by 5.4.3.1 reveal unacceptable flaws (5.4.2.3.2), the remaining weld overlays shall be volumetrically examined during the current outage.

(Figures 1(a) and 1(b) are shown on the next page.)
(a) The weld overlay examination volume in Fig. 1(a) shall be ultrasonically examined to determine the acceptability of the weld overlay and to determine.if any new or existing cracks have propagated into the outer 25% of the original weld or base material or into the overlay. The angle beam shall be directed perpendicular and parallel to the piping axis, with scanning performed in four directions.
(b) The weld overlay shall meet the'inservice examination standards of IWB-3514. In applying the acceptance standards to planar indications, the thickness tl or t 2 , defined in Fig. 1(b), shall be used as the nominal wall thickness in IWB-3514, provided the base material beneath the flaw (i.e., safe end, nozzle, or piping material) is not susceptible to PWSCC. For susceptible material, tj shall be used. If the acceptance standards of IWB-
'3514 cannot be met, the weld overlay shall meet the acceptance standards of IWB-.3600.
Any indication characterized as stress corrosion cracking in the weld overlay material is unacceptable.
(c) As an alternative to (a) for inservice inspection, the weld examination volume in ASME Section XI, Figure IWB-2500-8(c) may be ultrasonically examined. If cracking is detected extending beyond the weld examination volume, the weld examination of (a) and (b) above shall be performed to determine the acceptability of the weld overlay.
(d) If inservice examinations of (a); (b), or (c) reveal crack growth, new cracking in the weld overlay, or outer 25% of original weld/base material meeting the acceptance standards, the weld overlay examination volume shall be reexamined during the first or second refueling outage following discovery of the crack growth or new cracking. The weld overlay examination volume shall be subsequently examined two additional times at the period of one or two refuelingoutages (i.e., a total of 3 examinations within 6 refueling outages).
(e) If the examinations required by (d) reveal that the'flaws remain essentially unchanged for three successive examinations, the weld examination schedule may revert to the sample and schedule of examinations identified in 5.1.

2. Applicable Code Edition and Addenda
ASME Section XI, 2004 Edition (No Addenda)
3. Applicable Code Requirement
IWB-2500, Table IWB-2500-1, Code Category B-P, Item Number B 15.10 requires that all Class 1 pressure retaining components be Visual, VT-2 examined each refueling outage. The required system pressure test can be either a hydrostatic test or a system leakage test. The system leakage test is performed at a pressure not less than the pressure corresponding to 100% rated reactor power. Per IWB-5222(a), the pressure retaining boundary during the system leakage test shall correspond to the reactor coolant boundary, with all valves in the position required for normal reactor operation startup. The visual examination shall, however, extend to and include the second closed valve at the boundary extremity. Per IWB-5222(b), the pressure retaining boundary during the system leakage test conducted at ornear the end of the interval shall extend to all Class 1 pressure retaining components within the system boundary.
4. Reason for Request
As discussed in Section 3, "Applicable Code Requirements," ASME Section XI, 2004 Edition (No Addenda) requires that Class 1 pressure boundary piping shall be pressure tested after each refueling outage. The RPV head flange seal leak detection piping is shown in Attachment 1. The piping is separated from the reactor coolant pressure boundary by one passive membrane, which is an o-ring located on the inner vessel flange. A second o-ring is located on the outside of the tap in the vessel flange. Failure of the inner o-ring is the only Page 1 of 3
10 CFR 50.55a Relief Request RR-04-08 Serial No.10-323 (Continued) Docket No. 50-336 condition under which this line is pressurized. Therefore, the line is not expected to be pressurized during the system pressure test following a refueling outage.
The configuration of this piping precludes system pressure testing while the vessel head is removed because the configuration of the vessel tap coupled with the high test pressure prevents the tap in the flange from being temporarily plugged or connected to other piping.
The opening in the flange is smooth walled, making the effectiveness of a temporary seal very limited. Failure of a temporary test seal could possibly cause ejection of the device used for plugging or connecting to the vessel flange.
The configuration also precludes pressurizing the line externally with the head installed. The top head of the vessel contains two grooves that hold the o-rings. The o-rings are held in place by a series of retainer clips that are housed in recessed cavities in the flange face. If a pressure test were to be performed with the head on, the inner o-ring would be pressurized in a direction opposite to its design function. This test pressure would result in a net inward force on the inner o-ring that would tend to push it into the recessed cavity that houses the retainer clips. The thin o-ring material would likely be damaged by the inward force.
Purposely failing or not installing the inner o-ring in order to perform a pressure test would require purchasing a new o-ring set. The time and radiation exposure associated with removing and reinstalling the RPV head to replace the o-rings would be an undue hardship.
Considering this information, compliance with the JWB-5222(b) system pressure test requirements results in unnecessary hardship without a sufficient compensating increase in the level of quality and safety.
- 5. Proposed Alternative and Basis for Use In lieu of the requirements of IWB-5222(b), a VT-2 visual examination will be performed each outage on the unpressurized subject piping as part of the Class 1 leakage test. If the inner o-ring should leak during the operating cycle it is identified by an increase in temperature of the leak-off line above ambient temperature. This high temperature actuates an alarm in the control room, which is closely monitored. Procedurally controlled operator actions allow identification of any further compensatory actions required. This leakage is collected in the primary drain transfer tank.
Additionally, the flange seal leak-off line is essentially a leakage collection/detection system and the line would only function as a Class 1 pressure boundary if the inner 0-ring fails, thereby pressurizing the line. If any significant leakage does occur in the leak-off line piping itself during this time of pressurization then it would clearly exhibit boric acid accumulation and be discernable during the proposed VT-2 visual examination that will be performed unpressurized as proposed in this request.
- 6. Duration of Proposed Alternative This relief is requested for the duration of the fourth inservice inspection interval, which began on April 1, 2010, and is scheduled to end on March 31, 2020.
