FINAL REPORT FOR THE 3 0 TH YEAR CONTAINMENT IWL INSPECTION PROJECT TITLE:

30TI YEAR TENDON SURVEILLANCE AT CRYSTAL RIVER DATE: 02/04/2009 Progress Energy 6.0 TENDON ACCESSIBILITY 6.1 The PSC field personnel performed a general examination for tendon accessibility during this surveillance period. This examination was performed in order to assist CR03ENG in the planning of future surveillances. The results are summarized in Tables 27 thru 38.

6.2 During this examination it was noted that small grease/oil leaks were occurring on multiple tendon caps, which were located inside existing structures that adjoin the containment building. The substance displacing from the tendon cap is actually the oil portion from the original P2 grease that has separated.

This is a common occurrence that has been noted throughout many plants during tendon surveillances.

This condition does not correspond to the system's degradation. A small amount of oil can cause a large aesthetically unpleasing condition. On buttresses without any coating, the oil is absorbed into the concrete, leaving very little signs of leakage. However, in the existing condition, the coated surface does not allow for the absorption to occur. Therefore, the oil continues to displace down the buttress face.

PSC recommends this condition be monitored and cleaned on a periodic basis. Gasket replacement can be performed on the tendon cap, however the oil will continue to leak from the cap based on our experience. The labor and material required for the gasket replacement is not cost effective and PSC does not recommend performing such task.
