DOCKET NO. 50-395 OPERATING LICENSE NO. NPF-12 REQUEST TO USE ALTERNATIVES TO ASME CODE REQUIREMENTS IN VCSNS 3RD TEN YEAR INSERVICE INSPECTION INTERVAL (RR-III-07) Risk-Informed Extension of the Reactor Vessel In-Service Inspection Interval
References:
Final Safety Evaluation for Pressurized Water Reactor Owners Group (PWROG) Topical Report (TR) WCAP-16168-NP, Revision 2, "Risk-Informed Extension of the Reactor Vessel In-Service Inspection Interval (TAC No. MC9768)," dated May 8, 2008.
Dear Sir or Madam:
Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3)(i), South Carolina Electric & Gas Company (SCE&G),
acting for itself and as an agent for South Carolina Public Service Authority (Santee Cooper), hereby submits the attached request for an alternative to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,Section XI, paragraph IWB-2412, Inspection Program B. VCSNS proposes to extend the inspection interval from 10 years to 20 years for methods specified in ASME,Section XI, paragraph IWB-2500 Examination Categories B-A, "Pressure Retaining Welds in Reactor Vessel" and B-D "Full Penetration Welded Nozzle Welds." SCE&G has determined that the proposed alternative and bases established within WCAP-1 6168-NP-A, Revision 2, apply to VCSNS Unit 1 and will maintain an acceptable level of quality and safety. The plant specific information supporting this proposed alternative is provided in Attachment 1.
The next inspection of Examination Categories B-A and B-D welds are scheduled to be performed in the 2012 Fall refueling outage. SCE&G requests approval of the proposed alternative by January 12, 2012 to support refueling milestones.

Category B-A welds are defined as "Pressure Retaining Welds in Reactor Vessel" Category B-D welds are defined as "Full Penetration Welded Nozzles in Vessels" Examination Category Item No. Description B-A B1.11 Circumferential Shell Welds B-A B1.12 Longitudinal Shell Welds B-A B1.21 Circumferential Head Welds B-A B1.22 Meridional Head Welds B-A B1.30 Shell-to-Flange Weld B-A B1.40 Head-to-Flange Weld B-D B3.90 Nozzle-to-Vessel Welds B-D B3.100 Nozzle Inside Radius Section (Throughout this request the above examination categories are referred to as "the subject examinations" and the ASME BPV Code, Section Xl, is referred to as "the Code.")
2. Applicable Code Edition and Addenda
ASME Code Section Xl, "Rules for Inservice Inspection of Nuclear Power Plant Components,"
1998 Edition through 2000 Addenda.
3. Applicable Code Requirement
IWB-2412, Inspection Program B, requires volumetric examination of essentially 100% of RV pressure-retaining welds identified in Table IWB-2500-1 once each ten-year interval. The V. C.
Summer Unit 1 third 10-year inservice inspection (ISI) interval ends in 2013. The applicable Code for the fourth 10-year ISI interval will be selected in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.55a.

4. Reason for Request
An alternative is requested from the requirement of IWB-2412, Inspection Program B, that volumetric examination of essentially 100% of RV pressure-retaining Examination Category B-A and B-D welds be performed once each ten-year interval. Extension of the interval between examinations of Category B-A and B-D welds from 10 years to up to 20 years will result in a reduction in man-rem exposure and examination costs.
- 5. Proposed Alternative and Basis for Use South Carolina Electric & Gas Company (SCE&G) proposes to not perform the ASME Code required volumetric examination of the V. C. Summer Unit 1 RV full penetration pressure-retaining Examination Category B-A and B-D welds for the third inservice inspection, currently scheduled for 2012. SCE&G will perform the third ASME Code required volumetric examination of the V. C.
Summer Unit 1 RV full penetration pressure-retaining Examination Category B-A and B-D welds in the fourth inservice inspection interval in 2023 plus or minus one refueling outage. The proposed date is consistent with the date provided in OG-06-356 (Reference 2) and OG-10-238 (Reference 3).
In accordance with 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3)(i), an alternate inspection interval is requested on the basis that the current interval can be extended based on a negligible change in risk by satisfying the risk criteria specified in Regulatory Guide 1.174 (Reference 4).
The methodology used to conduct this analysis is based on that defined in the study WCAP-16168-NP-A, Revision 2, "Risk-Informed Extension of the Reactor Vessel In-service Inspection Interval" (Reference 5). This study focuses on risk assessments of materials within the beltline region of the RV wall. The results of the calculations for V. C. Summer Unit 1 were compared to those obtained from the Westinghouse pilot plant evaluated in WCAP-16168-NP-A, Revision 2.
Appendix A of the WCAP identifies the parameters to be compared. Demonstrating that the parameters for V. C. Summer Unit 1 are bounded by the results of the Westinghouse pilot plant qualifies V. C. Summer Unit 1 for an ISI interval extension. Table 1 below lists the critical parameters investigated in the WCAP and compares the results of the Westinghouse pilot plant to those of V. C. Summer Unit 1. Tables 2 and 3 provide additional information that was requested by the NRC and included in Appendix A of Reference 5.

Summer Unit 1 and an evaluation of the recorded indications. This information confirms that satisfactory examinations have been performed on the V. C. Summer Unit 1 RV.
Table 2: Additional Information Pertaining to Reactor Vessel Inspection for V.C. Summer Unit 1 Inspection methodology: The latest ISI was conducted in accordance with the ASME Code,Section XI and Section V, 1989 Edition, no Addenda and 1995 Edition with 1996 Addenda. Examinations of Category B-A and B-D welds were performed to ASME Section XI Appendix VIII 1995 Edition with the 1996 Addenda, as modified by 10 CFR 50.55a(b)(2)(xiv, xv and xvi). Future inservice inspections will be performed to ASME Section Xl Appendix VIII requirements.
Number of past Two 10-Year inservice inspections have been performed.
inspections:
Number of indications There was one indication identified in the beltline region during the most found: recent inservice inspection. This indication, in plate material, is acceptable per Table IWB-3510-1 of Section XI of the ASME Code. This indication is within the inner 1/10 th or 1" of the RV thickness and is acceptable per the requirements of the Alternate PTS Rule, 10 CFR 50.61a (Reference 8) since the number of actual flaws is less than the allowable number of plate flaws for each flaw size increment. A disposition of this flaw against the limits of the Alternate PTS Rule is shown in the table below.

Proposed inspection The third inservice inspection is scheduled for 2012. This inspection will be schedule for balance of performed in 2023 plus or minus one refueling outage. The proposed date plant life: is consistent with the date provided in OG-06-356 (Reference 2) and OG-10-238 (Reference 3).
