20555 Attention:

Mr.

D. L. Wi inton

Dear Mt. Schwencer:

This letter transmits additional information concerning our submittal No. AEP:NRC:00186A dated May 4, 1979 and requested by members of the NRC staff in a telephone conversation held on June 19, 1979.

Each item requested and our response is presented below:

Topic:

Additional Information Regarding the Regnal sis of Pressurizer Sur e Line s

i N

Do both units. of the Cook Plant have a 14 inch surge line to the pressurizer?

~Res onse Both units of the Cook Plant have a 14 inch surge line to the pressurizer.

s Are the physical geometry and pipe support locations the same for both units of the Cook Plant?

~Res onse Yes, the geometry and support locations are the same for both units except Unit No.

2 is the "opposite hand" of Unit No. l.

V906220 g Q3 zn(

S ig

Nr. A. Schwencer June 20, 1979 AEP:NRC:00186B uestion No.

3 Were the terminal ends of the surge line checked against the stress criteria of the B31.1 - 1967 Power Piping Code?

~Res onse The calculated stresses at the terminals of the surge lines were checked and are within the allowable limits of the B31.1

Code, 1967 edition.

uestion No. 4 What piping code was used for the pressurizer surge line?

~Res onse The surge line was designed in accordance with the 1967 B31.1 Power Piping Code and was erected in accordance with the B31.7 Code, 1969 edition.

uestion No.

5 Confirm that the reanalysis utilized "as built" conditions.

How and when was this fact verified?

~Res onse The physical parameters used in the reanalysis of the surge line were obtained after initial installation of the line.

A review of our records indicates that the surge line geometry has not been modified since initial installation.

Thus, the physical parameters used in the reanalysis represent "as built" conditions.

Furthermore, atter the phone conversation with your staff, the pressurizer surge lines were "walked" and the preceding fact confirmed.

uestion No.

6 Does the reanalysis result in a change in the break locations?

~Res onse The results of the reanalysis have no effect on the break point locations.

When the original analysis of the surge line was performed, breaks were postulated at each change in direction of the line.

This criterion is more conservative than the present requirements, which postulate circumferential breaks at high stress points in the line.

g i

N.7 What version of the WESTDYN code was used for the reanalysis?

~Res ense The current revision of WESTDYN was used.

This version of the code has been verified and its documentation submitted to the NRC in WCAP-8252 Rev. l.

Nr. A. Schwencer June. 0, 1979 AEP: NRC: 00186B uestion No. 8 What method of stress combination was used in the reanalysisl

~Res ense The intramodal responses due to each horizontal and vertical shock wave were combined by absolute summation.

The intermodal responses were then combined by the square-root-sum of the squares (SRSS) method.

uestion No.

9 Are any Velan valves installed in the pressurizer surge lines7

~Res onse No, there are no valves in the pressurizer surge lines.

As the information transmitted herein is being submitted at the request of members of the NRC staff, AEP interprets 10 CFR 170.22 as requiring that no fee accompany this submittal.

Very truly yours, R. F. Hering Vice President RFH clb cc:
