Dear Commissioners and Staff:
Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(g)(5)(iii), Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) hereby requests NRC approval of lnservice Inspection (lSI) Relief Request NDE-SIF-U2 for the Diablo Canyon Power Plant Unit 2 lSI interval.
PG&E requests relief from the requirements of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code for examination coverage of Class 2 Seal Injection Filter pressure vessel welds. The details of the relief request are enclosed.
PG&E requests NRC approval of Relief Request NDE-SIF-U2 by May 1, 2017.
PG&E makes no new or revised regulatory commitments (as defined by NEI 99-04) in this letter.
If you have any questions regarding this relief request, or other lSI program activities, please contact Mr. Hossain Hamzehee at (805) 545-4720.

--lnservice Inspection Impracticality--
- 1. ASME Code Component(s) Affected Diablo Canyon Power Plant (DCPP), Unit 2, American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)Section XI, Code Class 2 seal injection filter pressure vessel welds (two welds):
Code Item Outage Description Weld Number Cat. No. Examined Unit 2 Seal Injection Filter C-A C1.10 Item No.1 2R19 Shell-to-Flange Weld Unit 2 Seal Injection Filter C-A C1.20 Item No.2 2R19 Shell-to-Head Weld
2. Applicable Code Edition and Addenda
The DCPP Unit 2 third interval lnservice Inspection (lSI) Program Plan is based on the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,Section XI, 2001 Edition through 2003 Addenda.
3. Applicable Code Requirement
ASME Section XI, Table IWC-2500-1, Category C-A, Item No. C1.10 and Item No. C 1.20 each require that seal injection filter vessel shell welds be volumetrically examined once during the lSI interval. Essentially 100 percent of the full volume of the weld and adjacent base material is to be examined in accordance with the requirements of Appendix I, 1-2210. The applicable examination volume is defined by Figure IWC-2500-1 and the examination is performed per ASME Section XI, Appendix Ill, as supplemented by Table 1-2000-1.
- 4. Impracticality of Compliance The Unit 2 seal injection filter vessel shell-to-flange and shell-to-head weld configurations are such that essentially 100 percent coverage of the ASME Code required examination volume from the outside diameter is impractical. This was determined during the third interval examinations conducted during the DCPP Unit 2 Nineteenth Refueling Outage (2R19).
Page 1 of 10
Enclosure PG&E Letter DCL-16-116 Background Information The DCPP seal injection filter vessel shell is fabricated from SA312 TP 304 material with a nominal shell thickness of 0.940 inches. The head and flange are fabricated from SA240 TP 304, with the head nominal thickness of 1.0 inch and the flange with a nominal 0.940 inch thickness at the weld and having a 3-5/8 inch thick cover bolted to it. The vessel nominal diameter is 10 inches.
The subject welds were examined in 2R 19 to the fullest extent practicable using a 45-degree angled shear wave and 60-degree longitudinal waves. For the shell-to-flange weld #1, the 45-degree and 60-degree angles were used for the axial scans from the shell side in order to achieve the maximum possible coverage of the Code specified examination volume; the flange configuration precludes axial examination from the flange side of the weld. For the shell-to-head weld #2, the 45-degree and 60-degree angles were used for the axial scans from the shell side in order to achieve the maximum possible coverage of the Code specified examination volume; the head curvature configuration limits axial examination from the head side of the weld. The 45-degree angle was used for circumferential scan examinations for both welds. No flaws were detected in any of the examinations of the *subject welds.
The circumferential length of each weld is limited by various appurtenances. The shell-to-flange weld #1 has a nameplate and a support for the lid davit arm that are welded to the shell. These two items combine to preclude examination for a total of 8 inches of the 33.77 -inch circumference of the weld resulting in 76.3 percent of the total length that can be examined. The shell-to-head weld #2 is limited by three support legs and an inlet nozzle. These four items combine to preclude examination for a total of 15.77 inches of the 33.77-inch circumference of the weld resulting in 53.3 percent of the total length that can be examined.
The following table summarizes the exam percent volume coverage attained for each weld in the axial (up direction and down direction) and circumferential (clockwise and counter-clockwise) scan directions, the combined coverage percent, the circumferential examination extent, and the total combined coverage. The sketches at the end of this Enclosure illustrate the coverage for each of the inspection angles and directions used to determine coverage values.

Impracticality For the shell-to-flange weld #1, the flange transition proximity to the weld constitutes a geometric restriction that precludes full examination volume coverage from the outside surface by preventing axial examination from the flange. In addition, the nameplate and davit support arm are welded to the vessel preventing removal to permit access. For the shell-to-head weld #2, the transition to the curvature of the head results in a loss of contact for the transducer and a change in resultant sound angle that constitutes a geometric restriction that precludes full examination volume coverage from the outside surface by limiting axial examination from the head. Furthermore, the three support legs and inlet nozzle are welded to the vessel preventing removal to provide access. These obstructions make full examination coverage impractical.
- 5. Burden Caused by Compliance Essentially 100 percent coverage of the exam volume from the outside surface would require redesign of the seal injection filter vessel to move the weld farther back from the flange or head, or eliminate the shell-to-flange weld by integrally incorporating the flange into the shell. Welded supports and inlet nozzle would require relocating these items. Any of these modifications would effectively result in performing major redesign and rework or replacement of the entire seal injection filter vessel to accommodate full coverage of the exam area as specified by Code.
Performing examinations from the inside diameter of the seal injection filter vessel would require accessing the small 10-inch nominal diameter vessel below an external shielding structure and work in a high contamination, high risk foreign material exclusion area. Additionally, an internal filter support structure exists that limits access to the shell-to-head weld.

Enclosure PG&E Letter DCL-16-116 These efforts required to attain a small incremental increase in coverage would incur increased personnel radiation exposure. The efforts would also increase personnel risk due to work in a difficult to access, highly constrained, and contamjnated work environment.
- 6. Proposed Alternative and Basis for Use PG&E proposes to perform the alternative ultrasonic examinations to the maximum extent practicable from the outside surface. This would provide reasonable assurance that the structural integrity of the subject welds remains intact.
The 2R19 examinations were implemented to the extent practicable using manual scan techniques and an additional 50-degree longitudinal wave search unit in an effort to attain the greatest possible coverage of the required examination volume. The volume examined on both of the subject welds includes the weld and surrounding base material near the inside surface of the weld joint, which are typically the highest stress regions and where degradation would likely manifest should it occur.
The combined ultrasonic coverage values of 62.8 percent for weld #1 and 52.2 percent for weld #2 provide reasonable assurance that the structural integrity of these welds remains intact.
Potential Failure Consequences A failure of a seal injection filter weld could result in a loss of seal injection water.
The worst case consequence would occur if a seal injection filter weld was to suffer 360-degree circumferential cracking. The seal injection filter can be manually isolated with flow going through the second redundant seal injection filter vessel.
System leakage tests in accordance with the pressure test requirements of ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section XI, Examination Category C-H have been performed on the seal injection filters with no flaws detected.
Essentially no change to overall plant safety is expected due to implementation of the proposed alternative in lieu of the Code requirement. This assumption is based on the effectiveness of ultrasonic examination; little or no historical occurrence of large service induced planar flaws in this type of weldment, and demonstrated leak tightness during pressure test.

The DCPP Unit 2 third inspection interval end date was dependent on the completion date of the nineteenth refueling outage, in accordance with ASME Section XI, paragraph IWA-2430(d)(1). 2R19 ended on June 2, 2016.
