UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 May 26, 1994 Hr. J.

H. Goldberg President Nuclear Division Florida Power and Light Company Post Office Box 14000 Juno

Beach, Florida 33408-0420

Dear Hr. Goldberg:

SUBJECT'ENERIC LETTER (GL) 92-01, REVISION 1, "REACTOR VESSEL STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY," ST.

LUCIE PLANT, UNITS 1

AND 2, (TAC NOS.

H83505 AND H83506)

By letters dated July 1,

1993, and November 15, 1993, Florida Power

& Light Company (FPL) provided its response to GL 92-01, Revision 1.

The NRC staff has completed its review of your responses.

The GL is part of the staff's program to evaluate reactor vessel integrity for Pressurized Water Reactors (PWRs) and Boiling Water Reactors (BWRs).

The information provided in response to GL 92-01, including previously docketed information, is being used to confirm that licensees satisfy the requirements and commitments necessary to ensure reactor vessel integrity for their facilities.

A substantial amount of information was provided. in response to GL 92-01, Revision l.

These data have been entered into a computerized data base designated the Reactor Vessel Integrity Database (RVID).

The RVID contains the following tables:

a pressurized thermal shock (PTS) table for PWRs, a

pressure-temperature limits table for BWRs and an upper-shelf energy (USE) table for PWRs and BWRs.

Enclosure 1 provides the PTS tables, Enclosure 2

provides the USE tables for your facility, and Enclosure 3 provides a key for the nomenclature used in the tables.

The tables include the data necessary to perform USE and RT evaluations.

These data were taken from your responses to GL 92-01 and previously docketed information.

References to the specific source of the data are provided in the tables.

For St. Lucie 1, we have determined that additional data is required to confirm that the USE at end-of-life (EOL) for one of your beltline materials, weld 2-203, is greater than 50 ft-lb because you have provided a generic mean value for the unirradiated USE.

These types of values are unacceptable because they do not consider material variability.

When the unirradiated USE for a particular material has not been determined, you can set the USE equal to the lower tolerance.limit calculated for the group of similar materials.

The unirradiated USE should be determined such that there exists 95X confidence that at least 95X of the population is greater than the lower tolerance limit. If the lower tolerance limit results in a projected USE at 9406080356 940526 gRI; lqI.E MWTM&PV

Hr. J.

H. Goldberg t EOL of less than 50 ft-lb, then you must demonstrate, in accordance with Appendix G, 10 CFR Part 50, that lower values of USE will provide margins of safety against fracture equivalent to those required by Appendix G of Section III of the American Society of Hechanical Engineers Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code.

We request that you submit within 30 days a schedule for providing the required data.

Further, we request that you verify that the information you have provided for your facility has been accurately entered in the summary file. If no comments are made in your response to this request, the staff will use the information in the tables for future NRC assessments of the St.

Lucie 1 reactor pressure vessel.

Once your response is received and your schedule is determined to be satisfactory, the staff will consider your actions related to GL 92-01; Revision 1, to be complete for St. Lucie 1.

When your analyses are submitted, they will be reviewed as a plant-specific licensing action.

For St. Lucie 2, we request that you verify that the information that you have provided for your facility has been accurately entered in the summary data files.

No response is necessary unless an inconsistency is identified. If no comments are received within 30 days from the date of this letter, the staff will consider your actions related to GL 92-01, Revision 1, to be complete and the staff will use the information in the tables for future NRC assessments of the St. Lucie 2 pressure vessel.

The information requested by this letter is within the scope of the overall burden estimated in GL 92-01, Revision 1, "Reactor Vessel Structural Integrity, 10 CFR 50.54(f)."

The estimated average number of burden hours is 200 person hours for each addressee's response.

This estimate pertains only to the identified response-related matters and does not include the time required to implement actions required by the regulations.

This action is covered by the Office of Hanagement and Budget Clearance Number 3150-0011, which expires June 30, 1994.

Sincerely, (Original Signed By)
