While performing an ISI examination in the NMP2 drywell it was noted that ASME Class 1 sway strut pipe support 2RHS-PSST348A1 showed evidence of misalignment and binding (strut rod end in contact with pipe clamp).
A Design Engineering evaluation concluded that the condition of axial misalignment is not acceptable for continued service and as such required correction prior to return to service.
The initial additional examinations (a.k.a. scope expansion),
required of ASME Section XA IWF-2430(a), identified one of four additional supports as having the condition of misalignment and binding. This additional condition is documented in Condition Report CR-2012-003568 and resulted in the need for further additional examinations as required by ASME Section XI IWF-2430(b). All nine additional supports were found to be free of the misalignment condition.
Both supports identified as having the out of alignment condition were corrected via maintenance, were re-inspected (pre-service examination), and have been scheduled for Code required successive examinations.
F-A F1.30A Sway Strut (Pipe Condition Report CR-2012-003402 documents the identification of a Support) relevant condition exceeding the acceptance criteria of IWF-3410.
While performing an ISI examination in the NMP2 Service Water Screen Well it was noted that ASME Class 3 sway strut pipe support 2SWQ-PSST540B3 showed evidence of misalignment and binding (strut rod end incontact with pipe clamp).
A Design Engineering evaluation concluded that the condition of axial misalignment is not acceptable for continued service and as such required correction prior to return to service.
The initial additional examinations (a.k.a. scope expansion),
required of ASME Section XI IWF-2430(a), found all five additional supports to be free of the misalignment condition. As such, no further additional examinations were required.
2SWQ-PSST540B3 was corrected via maintenance, was re-inspected (pre-service examination), and has been scheduled for Code required successive examinations.

Connections) Station procedures require Design Engineering Evaluation for any leakage originating from a bolted connection.
Condition Report CR-2012-005096 documents an undesirable condition associated with 60 drops per minute leakage from the ASME Class 1 valve 2RCS*HYV17B body-to-bonnet bolted flange connection. A Design Engineering Evaluation concludes that the identified leakage is acceptable as-is for continued service. Work Order C91907821 has been generated to address this condition.
Condition Reports CR-2012-005094 and CR-2012-005113 document undesirable conditions associated with leakage from Control Rod Drive bolted flange connections. The as-found leakage ranged from 2 drops per minute to 108 drops per minute.
The as-left leakage was reduced significantly following scramming of control rod drives. Furthermore, during the final 900 psi drywell closeout inspection Under-vessel leakage had fallen to 1 drop every 2 - 3 minutes and no leakage was observed from the 2RCS*HYV17B bonnet as captured in CR-2012-005613.
A Design Engineering Evaluation concludes that the identified.
leakage is acceptable as-is for continued service.

While performing Structural Maintenance Rule Walk-Down of Service Water piping located inthe NMP2 Service Water tunnel it was noted that ASME Class 3 sway strut pipe supports 2SWP-PSST1425A3 and 2SWP-PSST1426A3 are deteriorated having heavy surface corrosion. Work Order C91856316 has been initiated to address this condition.
A Design Engineering evaluation concluded that the identified condition, though undesirable, is not a nonconformance and as such is acceptable for continued service in accordance with ASME Section Xl IWF-3122.3(a). Since the condition was acceptable for continued service no further additional Code examinations were required. The evaluation recommends performing maintenance to restore the support to original design configuration.
Condition Report CR-2012-002953 documents a similar condition on additional safety-related Service Water pipe supports located in the Service Water pipe tunnel. Service Water supports 2SWP-PSR777A3, 2SWP-PSST776A3 2SWP-PSR775A3, 2SWP-PSR774A3, 2SWP-PSR732A3 and 2SWP-PSR733A3 were observed to have heavy corrosion and structural steel metal loss of up to 20% of the original thickness. The Design Engineering evaluation associated with this condition concludes that the support conditions remain functional but do not meet the current pipe support design requirements therefore the identified condition is a nonconformance. Maintenance is currently planned and scheduled to perform additional NDE (thickness readings) to verify condition of support members and clean and coat support steel. The supports identified within CR-2012-002953 are safety-related but exempt from ASME Section Xl examination requirements. Work Order C91855634 has been initiated to address this condition.
