Dear Mr. Grier:
NRC IE BULLETIN NO. 79-03 NO. 1 AND 2 UNITS SALEM GENERATING STATION In response to your letter of March 12, 1979, transmitting NRC IE Bulletin No. 79-03 which was received on March 13, 1979, we have investigated this matter with respect to applicability to Salem No.*l and 2 Units.
The following are the results of our investiga-tion:
The subject bulletin which questioned incomplete fusion in type 304 and 316 SA-312 welded pipe, manufactured before mid November, 1978 by Youngstown Welding and Engineering Company, has been evaluated by the PSE&G Engineering Department.
PSE&G has determined that Salem Generating Station Units No. 1 and 2 have no safety-related pipe assemblies manufactured from the aforementioned material.
The following procedure was used to arrive at this conclusion.
- The PSE&G Quality Assurance Department required Youngstown Welding and Engineering Company to list all their heat numbers for the above fusion welded pipe material supplied to the following fabricators and vendors:
