SUBJECT:
OCONEE NUCLEAR STATION, UNIT 1 - THIRD TEN-YEAR INTERVAL INSERVICE INSPECTION REQUEST FOR RELIEF NO. 95-05 (TAC NO. M94198)
Dear Mr. Hampton:
By letter dated December 4, 1995, you submitted Relief Request No. 95-05 from ASME Code requirements for the preservice inspection of two welds performed by the vendor during the fabrication of the replacement 1A High Pressure Injection Letdown Cooler. The NRC staff has reviewed and evaluated your submittal and supporting information. The staff's evaluation and conclusions are contained in the enclosed Safety Evaluation.
The NRC staff has concluded that certain requirements of the Code are impractical.
The staff has determined that the extent of coverage obtained for the specific welds covered by this request provides reasonable assurance of the structural reliability and operational readiness of the High Pressure Injection Letdown Cooler welds. Therefore, pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(g)(6)(i), relief is granted as requested for Request for Relief 95-05.
This relief is authorized by law and will not endanger life or property or the common defense and security, and is otherwise in the public interest, giving due consideration to the burden that could result if the requirements were imposed on your facility.
Sincerely, Originl signed by:
