Subject:
Relief Request 14R-20, Inservice Inspection Program Relief Request Regarding Examination Coverage for the Fourth Inservice Inspection Interval In accordance with 10 CFR 50.55a, "Codes and standards," paragraph (g)(5)(iii), Exelon Generation Company, LLC (EGC), requests NRC approval of the attached relief request associated with the fourth inservice inspection (ISI) interval for Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station (QCNPS), Units 1 and 2. Relief is requested due to the impracticality of satisfying the requirements of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,Section XI, "Rules for Inservice Inspection of Nuclear Power Plant Components,"
due to plant design. The fourth ISI interval for QCNPS ended April 8, 2013.
The relief request is based on the limitations that precluded completion of full Code examination requirements of ASME Class 1 components during the fourth interval. Code examination of the components was limited due to the materials of construction and design configurations. The QCNPS fourth ten-year ISI program plan was developed in accordance with ASME Code,Section XI, 1995 Edition through 1996 Addenda.
EGC requests approval of the proposed relief request by January 23, 2015. There are no regulatory commitments contained in this letter. Should you have any questions concerning this letter, please contact Mr. Kenneth M. Nicely at (630) 657-2803.

Request for Relief for Inservice Inspection Impracticality Due to the Limited Examination Coverage In Accordance with 10 CFR 50.55a(g)(5)(iii)

Description:==
Limited examination coverage Component Number:
See Tables I4R-20.1 and I4R-20.2 below for specific component identification
- 2.
Applicable Code Edition and Addenda
The Inservice Inspection (ISI) Program for the Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station (QCNPS), Units 1 and 2, fourth ISI interval was based on the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,Section XI, 1995 Edition through 1996 Addenda.
- 3.
Applicable Code Requirement
Table IWB-2500-1 and Table 1 of Code Case N-578-1 Examination Categories/Item Numbers B-A, B1.12, B1.40, B1.51; B-D, B3.90; and R-A, R1.20 require a volumetric and/or surface examination, which includes essentially 100% of the weld. QCNPS Units 1 and 2 adopted ASME Code Case N-460, "Alternative Examination Coverage for Class 1 and Class 2 Welds, Section Xl, Division 1," which defines "essentially 100%" as greater than 90% coverage of the examination volume or surface area, as applicable.
Table IWF-2500-1, Examination Category F-A, Item Number F1.40 requires a VT-3 visual examination of these supports. Footnote 3 of Table IWF-2500-1 indicates that at least one component be examined for multiples of similar components, within a system of similar design, function, and service. There is no equivalent component to the reactor vessel skirt; therefore, this component is required to be examined. The VT-3 visual examination is in accordance with the boundaries shown in Figure IWF-1300-1.
- 4.
Impracticality of Compliance:
Relief is requested in accordance with 10 CFR 50.55a(g)(5)(iii), on the basis that conformance with these Code requirements is impractical. Conformance would require extensive structural modifications to the component or surrounding structure.
ATTACHMENT 10 CFR 50.55a Relief Request I4R-20 Revision 0 (Page 2 of 14)
QCNPS, Units 1 and 2, obtained Construction Permits CPPR-23 and CPPR-24, respectively, on February 15, 1967. The piping systems and associated components were designed and fabricated before the examination requirements of ASME Section XI were formalized and published. Since QCNPS, Units 1 and 2, were not specifically designed to meet the requirements of ASME Section XI, full compliance is not feasible or practical within the limits of the current plant design.
Physical obstructions imposed by design, geometry, and materials of construction are typical of vessel appurtenances and sacrificial shield, insulation support rings, structural and component support members, adjacent component weldments in close proximity, unique component configurations and dissimilar metal weldments.
Tables I4R-20.1 and I4R-20.2 below indicate the refueling outage in which these components were examined, and the coverage percentages obtained for those components that have been examined. These tables are cumulative lists of multiple components with limited examination coverage during the fourth ISI interval.
Based on the above considerations, Exelon Generation Company, LLC (EGC) requests relief from the requirement to achieve greater than 90% volume and/or area coverage for the components listed in Tables I4R-20.1 and I4R-20.2 below, where greater than 90%
coverage is impractical.
- 5.
Burden Caused by Compliance:
Compliance with the examination requirements of ASME Section XI would require modification of plant components to remove obstructions, redesigning of plant systems, and replacement of components where geometry is inherent to component design.
- 6.
Proposed Alternative and Basis for Use:
Proposed Alternative In accordance with 10 CFR 50.55a(g)(5)(iii), EGC requests relief from ASME Section XI Code requirements on the basis that the required "essentially 100%" coverage examination is impractical due to physical obstructions and limitations imposed by design, geometry, and materials of construction for the components listed in Tables I4R-20.1 and I4R-20.2 below. Because of the inherent interferences associated with the components listed in Tables I4R-20.1 and I4R-20.2, and the permanent insulation surrounding the reactor vessel skirt, there are no qualified alternative examination techniques currently available to increase coverage.
EGC will continue to perform best effort examinations in order to achieve the maximum amount of coverage possible. Additionally, a VT-2 examination is performed on the subject pressure-retaining components during system pressure tests per examination category B-P each refueling outage.
ATTACHMENT 10 CFR 50.55a Relief Request I4R-20 Revision 0 (Page 3 of 14)
Basis for Use Examination techniques have been progressively upgraded during this interval to augment the required Section XI examinations. EGC continues to partner with the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), the Performance Demonstration Initiative (PDI), Inservice Inspection vendors and other industry sources to encourage the development and provide an awareness of improved examination techniques. The goal of these initiatives is to enhance coverage and flaw detection commensurate with radiation dose reduction.
EGC examination procedures are revised on a continuing basis to incorporate proven techniques for a higher level of safety and quality as they become available. The examinations and techniques used today exceed the examinations conducted in the past on each component.
All components received as a minimum, the required examination(s) to the extent practical due to the limited or lack of access available. The examinations conducted confirmed satisfactory results evidencing no unacceptable flaws present, even though "essentially 100%" coverage was not attained. EGC has concluded that if any active degradation mechanisms were to exist in the subject welds, those degradations would have been identified in the examinations performed.
Based on the above, with the vintage of the QCNPS, Units 1 and 2, designs, the underlying objectives of the code required volumetric and surface examinations have been met. The examinations were completed to the extent practical and evidenced no unacceptable flaws present. Additionally, a VT-2 examination is performed on the subject components during system pressure tests per examination category B-P each refueling outage and provides additional assurance that the structural integrity of the subject components is maintained.
- 7.
Duration of Proposed Alternative:
Relief is requested for the fourth ten-year ISI interval of the Inservice Inspection Program for QCNPS, Units 1 and 2.
- 8.
Precedents:
Relief was granted for the QCNPS, Units 1 and 2, third ISI intervals in NRC safety evaluations dated September 6, 2000, June 28, 2002, and May 10, 2005.
