CLOSURE OF TAC NOS. MA0574 AND MA0575-RESPONSE TO THE REQUEST FOR INFORMATIONIN GENERIC LETTER 92-01, REVISION 1, SUPPLEMENT 1, "REACTOR VESSEL STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY,"FOR ST. LUCIE PLANT, UNITS 1 AND2
Dear Mr. Plunkett:
On May 19, 1995, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued Generic Letter 92-01, Revision 1, Supplement 1 (GL 92-01, Rev. 1, Supp. 1), "Reactor Vessel Structural Integrity," to holders of nuclear operating licenses.
In issuing the Generic Letter (GL), the staff required addressees of the GL to:
(1) identify, collect, and report any new data pertinent to the analysis of structural integrity of the reactor pressure vessels (RPVs) at their nuclear plants, and (2) to assess the impact of that data on their RPV integrity analyses relative to the requirements of Sections 50.60 and 50.61 to Part 50 of Title 10 of the Code ofFederal Regulations (10 CFR 50.60 and 10 CFR 50.61), and to the requirements of Appendices G and H to Part 50 of Title 10 of the Code ofFederal Regulations (Appendices G and H to 10 CFR Part 50).
On August 16, 1995, you submitted your initial response to GL 92-01, Rev. 1, Supp. 1, and provided the requested information relative to the structural integrity assessments for St. Lucie, Units "1 and 2. The staff evaluated your response to GL 92-01, Rev. 1, Supp.
1, and provided its conclusion relative to your response on August 6, 1996.
However, since the time of the staffs closure letter, the Combustion Engineering (CE) Owners Group has submitted additional data regarding the alloying chemistries of beltline welds in CE fabricated vessels.
The additional alloying data were submitted in Topical Reports CE NPSD-1039 Rev. 2 and CE NPSD-1119, Rev. 1, for CE fabricated RPV welds.
RF On August 28, 1997, you provided your final response to the staff regarding your assessment of the information in the topical reports noted above.
The staff has reviewed the information that you submitted and determined that it adequately reflects the information contained in CE Topical Reports CE NPSD-1039, Rev. 2, and CE NPSD-1119, Rev. 1, for CE fabricated RPV welds.
~~0 As a result of the staffs review of your responses to GL 92-01, Rev.
1 and GL 92-01, Rev. 1, Supp. 1, the staff has revised the information in the Reactor Vessel Integrity Database 99070703bb 990b25 PDR ADQCK 05000335' PDR
T.F. Plunkett (RVID) and is releasing it as RVID Version 2. The new database is posted on the world-wide-web at a location which is linked to the NRC home page (http://www.nrc.gov/NRR/RVID/
index. html). We recommend that you review this information. Ifthe staff does not receive comments by September 1, 1999, we willassume that the data entered into the RVID are acceptable for your plant.
No additional information is necessary with regard to the structural integrity assessments.
Future submittals on pressure and temperature limits, pressurized thermal shock, or upper shelf energy should reference the most current information.
This closes the staff's efforts in regard to TAC numbers MA0574 and MA0575. If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact me at (301) 415-1479.
