UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555--0001 March 25, 1994 Docket No. 50-255 LICENSEE: Consumers Power Company FACILITY: Palisades Nuclear Generating Plant
SUBJECT:
SUMMARY
OF MEETING HELD ON MARCH 9, 1994, ON PRESSURIZED THERMAL SHOCK ISSUE On March 9, 1994, members of the NRC staff met with representatives of the Consumers Power Company (CPCo) to discuss the Palisades activities related to pressurized thermal shock (PTS). lists the meeting attendees. is a copy of the material presented by the licensee.
The meeting focused upon the project plans for Palisades reactor vessel integrity. The proposed project plan included the W-110 surveillance capsule analysis, data collection and analysis from the retired steam generator (SG) weld samples, integrated surveillance program, test reactor research and annealing demonstrations.
The licensee described its activities in obtaining and analyzing the available weld data as well as the planned activities in the surveillance program and vessel annealing consideration~.* The long-term supplemental surveillance plan which includes irradiation and annealing was also discussed.
The licensee is scheduled to submit a comprehensive PTS analysis including SG weld sample data analysis and results from the integrated surveillance program by February 1995.
The licensee expressed a desire to receive a safety evaluation of the latest PTS submittal dated February 23, 1994.
The staff noted that Palisades has been responsive to previous NRC comments on
- PTS issues, and the February 1995 schedule is acceptable. However, the licensee was reminded that NRC needs to be informed as soon as possible of any project schedule slippage or discovery of unfavorable data. Furthermore, the licensee should submit (1) a data equivalency demonstration for the integrated surveillance program and steam ~enerator welds and, (2) an analysis on the effects of thermal aging on the steam generator welds.

Consumers Power Company March 25, 1994 The licensee indicated that the samples removed from the retired SGs will be analyzed at three _locations evenly distributed throygh the cross-~ction of.
the weld.
The staff believes that d~e, to variabil*i.ty in the -coppel' coating on the weld wire, a best-estimate value for the amount'of copper in *a-*"weld should have more than three data points. Therefore, we.request that the chemical analysis of the retired SG weld samples include more than three measurements from each sample.
These measurements and the test results from drop weight and Charpy tests to determine the unirradiated reference temperatures are to be submitted for staff review as soon as possible.
