Response to Generic Letter 88-11, "NRC Position on Radiation Embrittlement of Reactor Vessel Materials and Its Impact on Plant.Operations" R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant Docket No. 50-244

Dear Mr. Stahle:

~

Generic Letter 88-11 required each licensee to submit the results of a

technical analysis relative to the implementation of Revision 2 to Regulatory Guide 1.99.

A technical analysis has been completed for R.ED Ginna by Westinghouse.

The results of the analysis for the most limiting material are presented on Table 1.

The Adjusted Reference Temperature (ART) is calculated for 11 EFPY and 20 EFPY using Revision 2 to Regulatory Guide 1.99.

The ART is compared to the total RT calculated using Revision 1 to Regulatory Guide 1.99 at 21 EFPY.

The total RT at 21 EFPY is the basis for the current heatup and cooldown pressure/temperature limits in the Ginna Technical Specifications.

The calculated ART for the most l'imiting material at the 1/4 T (wall thickness) and 3/4 T locations using Revision 2 to Regulatory Guide 1.99, would exceed the respective reference temperature values that were used to generate the current 21 EFPY heatup and cooldown P/T limits in Technical Specifications.

In

addition, the calculated ART for this material at present life (13.8 EFPY) would also exceed the respective values that form the basis for the current P/T limits.

RGt'E is 'presently evaluating potential changes to operating procedures equipment setpoints, and hardware which would provide consistency with Regulatory Guide 1.99, Rev.

2.

The type and extent of changes at Ginna Station will be evaluated for feasibility and cost-effectiveness, and implemented. to the extent considered appropriate, within the three year time period suggested in the Regulatory Guide.

Very truly yours, 8902020286 890128 PDR ADOCK 05000244 PDt":
