Serial No 14-286A Docket No. 50-336, Page 1 of 1 Response to Request for Additional Information Regarding License Renewal Commitment #13 - Question 1.1 By letter dated July 31, 2013, Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc. (DNC) submitted the "Aging Management Program

Description:

Inservice Inspection - Reactor Vessel Internals" to address License Renewal Commitment #13 for Millstone Power Station Unit 2 (MPS2).

The submittal contains an updated Reactor Vessel Internals (RVI) Aging Management Program (AMP) and RVI Inspection Plan in accordance with topical report "Material Reliability Program: Pressurized Water Reactor Inspection and Evaluation Guidelines" (MRP-227-A).

In an e-mail dated May 14, 2014, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission transmitted a request for additional information (RAI) related to the submittal. DNC provided a response to the RAI in a letter dated July 21, 2014 except for Question 1.1, which required input from Westinghouse. The response to RAI Question 1.1 is as follows:

RAI 1

1. Do the MPS2 RVI have non-weld or bolting austenitic stainless steel components with 20 percent cold work or greater, and if so do the affected components have operating stresses greater than 30 kilopounds per square inch?

DNC Response

1. Westinghouse performed a plant-specific review of documentation associated with austenitic stainless steel cold work in accordance with the current industry guidance issued in EPRI letter MRP 2013-025, "MRP-227-A Applicability Guidelines for Combustion Engineering and Westinghouse Pressurized Water Reactor Designs,"

dated October 14, 2013 (ADAMS Accession No. ML13322A454).

The review considered both original fabrication of reactor vessel internals and modifications completed through November, 2014.

Following the process described in MRP 2013-025, the materials of the reactor vessel internals components were binned into five categories, including "cold worked austenitic stainless steel (without subsequent solution annealing)".

The review determined that the RVI at MPS2 have no non-weld, non-bolting austenitic stainless steel components with 20 percent or greater cold work.
