,J., l, ___ I RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION INSERVICE INSPECTION PROGRAM SALEM GENERATING STATION, UNIT NO. 1 The NRC Staff has requested additional information and/or clarification regarding certain scheduled inservice examinations and requests for relief presented in the Inservice Inspection Program Plan for the Salem Unit 1 Second 10-Year ISI Interval.
The questions posed by the Staff and the accompanying PSE&G responses are presented below.
RAI ITEM 2.A The Staff notes that the Containment Spray System has been completely exempted from Inservice Examinations during t~e Second 10-Year Interval and only 5.3% of the Class 2 piping welds in the Residual Heat Removal (RHR) System are scheduled for examination.
Paragraph 10CFR50.55a(b) (2) (iv) requires that ASME Code Class 2 piping welds in the RHR, Emergency Core Cooling, and Containment Heat Removal systems shall be examined.
These systems should not be completely exempted from inservice examination based on Section XI exclusion criteria contained in IWC-1220.
The staff has previously determined that a 7.5 % augmented volumetric sample constitutes an acceptable resolution at similar plants.
A volumetric examination should be performed on at least a 7.5%
sample of the Class 2 piping welds in the Containment Spray, Chemical and Volume Control, Safety Injection and RHR Systems.
PSE&G RESPONSE TO RAI ITEM 2.A A review of the Salem Unit 1 Boundary Tables (Appendix D to the Long-Term Examination Plan for the Second 10-Year ISI Interval) indicates that approximately 50 percent of the lines in the Containment Spray System are shown as exempt under Code Case N-408, Paragraphs (a) (1) or (a) (6).
The remaining 50 percent, although not exempt, all contain welds in line~ whose wall thickness is less than 3/8 inch.
Therefore, in accordance with the footnotes to Table 1, Category C-F-1 of Code Case N-408, no welds were selected for examination.
The 184 nonexempt welds were however, included in the overall count for Class 2 piping welds.
In order to satisfy the Staff's concerns, 14 welds in the Containment Spray System have been selected and included in the
I
'I PSE&G RESPONSE TO RAI ITEM 2.A (continued)
Long-Term Plan for volumetric and surface examinations.
This meets the 7.5% requirement of the Code Case.
PSE&G concurs with the Staff assessment that only 5.3% of the Class 2 piping welds in the RHR System are scheduled for examin~tion.
As such, five additional welds have been selected for examination bringing the total number of welds to be examined in the system to 15, which is approximately 8%.
RAI ITEM 2.B Request for Relief No.1:
Relief is requested from performing the inservice examination.for the inaccessible portions of the Examination Category B-F, B-H, B-J, C-A, C-B, C-C, C-F-1, AND C-G welds listed in Attachment 5-13 of the ISI Program Plan.
This relief request has not been supported by adequate descriptive and detailed technical information.
Therefore, the Staff requests the following information:
(1)
For each of the welds listed, provide a detailed description of the obstructions or limitations which will be encountered during the course of the examination{s) {e.g., drawings or sketches may be helpful when describing weld/component configurations, interferences, etc.);
(2)
Provide an estimate of the percentage.of the Code-required examination{s) that can be performed for each of the welds listed; (3)
State the extent to which the examination sample has been increased to make up for the portions of the welds not examined; and (4)
With regard to the following nozzle-to-safe end welds listed as Examination Category B-F, Item B5.130, should these welds be listed as Item B5.40 as they are pressurizei nqzzle-to
-safe end welds?
6-PR-1105-1 6-PR-1104-1 6-PR-1103-1 4-PR-1100~1
RAI ITEM 2.B (continued)
The Staff considers inservice examinations of the pressure
-retaining dissimilar metals welds such as the subject safe-end welds crucial to plant safety.
Therefore, the licensee should provide adequate descriptive and detailed technical information to support the relief request.
PSE&G RESPONSE TO RAI ITEMS 2.B(l), 2.B(2) AND 2.B(3)
Upon receipt of this RAI, PSE&G contacted Mr. Jim Stone, The NRR Project Manager for the Salem Units to discuss the potential for employment of ASME Section XI Code Case N-460, "Alternative Examination Coverage for Class 1 and Class 2 Welds" so as to reduce the large amount of information which would have to be generated in order to respond to RAI Items 2.B(l) and 2.B(2).
Employment of this ASME Code Case would allow a reduction in examination coverage ~n any Class 1 or Class 2 weld provided the reduction in coverage for that weld is less than 10%.
Mr. Stone indicated that future Staff approval of this Code Case on a generic ~asis is anticipated but that formal NRC ~pproval was not available at this time.
For this reason, PSE&G has recently submitted (on January 26, 1989) a request to permit the use of ASME Section XI Code Case N-460.
PSE&G has employed Code Case N-460 in its response to RAI Items 2.B(l) and 2.B(2) in anticipation of a concurrent Staff approval for both the use of the Code Case and the RAI response.
Should the Staff respond alternatively, PSE&G will. address any additional information required for the response to the RAI at that time.
Examination coverages for all areas have been calculated, and the examination areas where 90% or more of the required coverage can be obtained (per Code Case N-460) have not been addressed in this response.
The following additional explanations are provided:
EXAMINATION CATEGORY B-F REMARKS All B-F welds have been selected for examination, therefore a sample increase cannot be realized.
Coverage will be maximized on the pressurizer dissimilar metal welds, but only 30-50 percent of the examination area can be volumetrically examined, and that volume only on the weld for reflectors perpendicular to the weld.
PSE&G RESPONSE TO RAI ITEMS 2.B(l), 2.B(2) AND 2.B(3) (continued)
B-J C-A C-B c-c The initial weld allocation included the welds required by Note(l) of Table IWB-2500 1 for B-J welds.
The second emphasis was placed on adherence to Note(2) and welds selected which had been examined during the first ISI interval.
Since all Class 1 welds have been examined during preservice, alternate Class 1 B-J welds have been selected which will not incur limitations and the originally selected limited examination areas deleted from the "Component and Piping Limitations" Table.
In one instance where substitution is not a viable option, an additional weld on the line will be examined to increase overall coverage of the system.
This has been noted on the "Component and Piping Limitations Table (see Table 1 attached to this response).
The limitations in this category occur in the regenerative heat exchanger and the RHR heat exchanger and are caused by permanent attachments and component geometry.
As in the B-F Category, there is no latitude for expansion beacuse all applicable examination areas have been selected in these "one-of
-a-kind" vessels.
Examination areas will be evaluated to determine where augmented surf ace examination can be applied to improve coverage and surf ace examinations performed on accessible portions of the welds.
Although only limited volumetric examinatibn is possible, full surface coverage can be obtained.
Previous ISI data and available drawings do not allow computation of the weld volume coverage obtainable.
Measurements will be taken during this ISI interval to allow the percentage of weld volume coverage to be accurately calculated.
Substitute examination areas are not available.
Magnetic particle (MT) examinations are the recommended examination arid have been accomplished during the first ISI interval on these ferritic lugs and supports.
Since MT examinations inherently
PSE&G RESPONSE TO RAI ITEMS 2.B{l), 2.B{2) AND 2.B{3) {continued)
C-F-1 C-G require more space to perform, each area will be carefully analyzed to determine if augmented liquid
- penetrant examinations can be performed to minimize the limitations and maximize coverage.
The limited-coverage examination areas in this category are terminal ends of systems and therefore, substitutions cannot be made since all terminal ends must be selected.
The best possible examination coverage will be obtained to ensure the integrity of the system.
Additional welds on the affected lines have been selected for examination to improve overall coverage of the systems and are noted in the "Component and Piping Limitations" Table (see Table 1 attached).
The C-G examination listed was improperly categorized and has been redesignated as C-F-1.
. PSE&G RESPONSE TO RAI ITEM 2.B(4)
- -.:s;rii_c;;~ the Summer 197 8 Addenda to Seqtion XI were issued, several options existed for assigning dissimilar metal welds to an examination category.
In previous Code editions, the examination requirements for dissimilar metal welds were different than for normal piping welds, i.e., they required both volumetric and surface examination, whereas norm.al piping welds required either volumetric or surface examination.
More recent Code editiops have imposed identical examination requirements on both dissimilar metal and similar metal piping welds.
Consequently, ASME Section XI, through Code Interpretation XI-1-83-15, has allowed utilities to consider these welds in either category, as long as they received the same examinations.
As reflected in the Salem Unit 1 Second 10-Year ISI Long-Term Plan, these four welds are shown as piping welds {B-F BS.130) rather then B-F BS.40.
Both item numbers contain the same examination requirements.

,RAI ITEM 2.C Request for Relief No. 4:
Relief is requested from performing the Code-required hydrostatic pressure tests of portions of the 3/4 in. Class 2 piping in the RHR and Safety Injection Systems at the r.equired test pressures of 565 PSI and 750 PSI.
As a proposed alternative, the subject lines will be pressurized to the nominal operating pressure (80-90 PSI) of the demineralized water system.
Provide information with regard to the hydrostatic pressure testing of the piping adjacent to the portions of piping for which relief is requested.
Discuss the possibility of including the subject portions of piping in the hydrostatic tests of the adjacent piping.
PSE&G RESPONSE TO RAI ITEM 2.C Relief Request No. 4 was submitted because of piping configuration restraints.
The lines are 3/4 in. Class 2 piping but with check valves preventing flow to the system isolation valves from the demineralized water system used.to make-up and flush the RHR System.
All the piping is welded with welded capped check valves.
Without breaching the system to remove the check valve internals or the demineralized water system upstream of the isolation valves, testing of this piping would not be obtainable.
A hydrostatic pressure test to 751-770 psig was performed on the portions of the system on the RHR side of the check valves as specified and required by ASME Section XI.
The total length of piping tested at the nominal pressure of the demineralized water system (between 80-90 psig) is 6 fe~t.
RAI ITEM 2.D Request for Relief No. 5:
Relief is requested from performing the Code-required inservice VT-3 and VT-4 visual examination* and inservice (furictional) testing of Class l, 2 and 3 snubbers.
As a proposed alternative, visual examinations and ~unctional testing will be performed in accordance with the-plant Technical Specifications.
.--RAI ITEM 2.D (continued)
Discuss the extent to which the proposed alternative visual examination meets the intent of the Code-required VT-3 and VT-4 visual examinations.
How will the proposed alternative examination result in an increase in the overall level of plant quality and safety, as stated in the relief request?
PSE&G RESPONSE TO RAI ITEM 2.D Section XI of the ASME Code 1983 Edition through Summer 1983 Addenda, Article IWF-2000 requires VT-3 and VT-4 inservice visual examinations of mechanical and hydraulic snubbers.
The inspection program as stated in the Code is:
(a)
Inservice examination shall be performed either during normal system operation or plant outages, and (b)
The required examinations shall be completed in accordance with the inspection schedule established for components under IWB, IWC, IWD amd IWE.
The examinations scheduled per the Salen Unit 1 ISI Program Plan were scheduled in accordance with Inspection Program B, as described in IWA-2400 for Class 1, 2 and 3 components and component supports.
Inspection periods are presently scheduled in accordance with the provisions of IWA-2400; IWB-2400, IWC-2400, IWD-2400 and IWF-2400 as follows:
First Period
- Three calendar years following the completion of the first inspection interval.
Second Period - Next four calendar years of plant service.
Third Period
- Next three calendar years of plant service.
IWF-5000 requires inservice tests to be performed on mechanical and hydraulic snubbers.
For snubbers of less than 50 kips, (a) inserv1ce tests shall be performed either during normal system operation or plant outages, and (b) a* representative sample of 10% of the total number of nonexempt (IWF-1230) snubbers whose load rating is less than 50 kips shall be tested each inspection period.
PSE&G RESPONSE TO RAI ITEM 2.D (continued)
Relief is requested from performing the inservice VT-3 and VT-4 visual examination and inservice (functional) testing to the requirements of the Code.
Visual examinations and functional testing will be performed on the Class 1, 2, and 3 (and other) snubbers in compliance with Salem Unit 1 Technical Specification (TS) 4.7.9.
Performance of examinations and testing to the requirements of the TS referenced above meets or exceeds all the require~ents of the Code.
As an example, the Code specifies that examinations will be scheduled per the inspection period established.
TS 4.7.9 requires that visual examinations be performed on all snubbers every 18 months +/- 25% based on zero (0) inoperable snubbers.
Thus, inspections are performed more frequently and usually twice as often as specified.in the Code.
Visual inspections shall verify (1) that there are no visible indications of damage or impaired operability,* (2) that attachments to the foundation or supporting structure are secure, and (*3) that in those locations where snubber movement can be manually induced without disconnection of the snubber, that the snubber has fredom of movement and is not frozen up.
Functional testing of mechanical and hydraulic snubbers in accordance with the TS is required at least once per 18 months during shutdown.
This testing frequency is over and*above that specified by the Code.
Also, the Code only specifies functional testing requirements for snubbers less than 50 kips.
The TS specify the requirement to perform testing on all mechanical and hydraulic sn~bbers including those with a rated capacity of greater than or equ~l to 50 kips.
The 10% sample selection, additional sample selection, and functional test acceptance criteria in the TS for both mechanical and hydraulic snubbers meet or exceed all Code requirements.
In summary, PSE&G believes that snubber testing in accordance with the Salem Unit 1 TS results in an increase in the overall level of plant quality and safety since the examination and functional testing requirements meet or exceed Code req.uirements and since the inspections are performed on a more frequent basis than that ~pecified by the Code.
RA! ITEM 2.E Plans for inservice examination of the Reactor Pressure Vessel welds should address the degree of compliance with Regulatory Guide 1.150, "Ultrasonic Testing of Reactor Vessel Welds During Preservice and Inservice Examinations.
Discuss the near-surface examination and resolution with regard to finding service induced flaws and the use of electronic gating as related to the volume of material near the surface that is not being examined.
PSE&G RESPONSE TO RA! ITEM 2.E Plans for inservice examination of the Salem Unit 1 reactor pressure vessel welds incorporate the use of Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) Fast PaR and Enhanced Data Acquisition System (EDAS).
SwRI has developed a broad range of technology to address near-surface examination.
The field technology is based on search units using multiple piezoelectric elements to extract information relative to flaws from compression waves of transducers.
as multibeam inspection tehcnology the interactive shear and
~his procedure is referred to (MIT).
Detection of near-surface cracks using the SwRI 50/70 transducer is an application of MIT.
This specially constructed transducer is extremely effective for detection of flaws close to the near surface.
Additionally, the technique and transducers used are effective to a depth of approximately 2 1/2 inches in the vessel wall.
To support the use of the SwRI 50/70 detection system, appropriate reactor pressure vessel inner radius and piping calibration blocks have been modified, prior to the last mechanized vessel examiantions by the additi6n of 1/16 inch diameter holes starting at the clad-bese metal interface at 1/2 inch intervals to the depth of the first 1/4-T Section XI Code reflector.
In addition, the EDAS proposed for use does not electronically gate out any areas.
All wave form data from Time Zero are digitized and recorded for use in B-and C-scan presentations.
Indications will be sized with the use of multibeam tip diffraction transducers.
SwRI has prepared a transcript of Appendix A to NRC Regulatory Guide 1.150, Revision 1, annotated with SwRI's comments.
. Comments are provided relative to the Regulatory Position portion of the Reg. Guide and indicate SwRI's technical methods of implementing Regulatory Guide 1.150.
The transcript is attached for your review.
SOUilJWESI RESEABCH INSTITUTE IMPLEMEN"fATION OF REGUl.ATORY GUIDE 1.150 REOUJREMENTS APPENDIX A Ultrasonic examination of reactor vessel welds should be performed according to the requirements of Section XI of the ASME B&PV Code, as referenced in the Safety Analysis Report (SAR) and its amendments, supplemented by the following:
- 1.
INSPECDON SYSTEM PERFORMANCE CHECKS The conduct of a quality examination requires that the performance characteristics of the inspection system used be well defined and documented.
This is particularly true for situations which require comparisons of examination results generated during succcWve examinations on the same components.
A system comprises:
- a.
a transducer;
- b.
a single-channel instrument or each channel of a multichannel instrument; and
- c.
a given cable type and length.
The chec:b descnbcd in paragraphs 1.1 and 1.2 should be made for any UT system used for inspection of reactor pressure vessel (RPV) welds.
The field performance checks described in 1.2 (with the possible exception of 1.2.c) should be conducted on a basic calibration block that represents the thickness range to be examined.

- 2.1 Calibration for Manual Scannin&
For manual sizing of flaws, static calibration may be used if sizing is performed using a static transducer.
When signals arc ma-rimized during calibration, they should also be maximized during sizing.
For manual scanning for the detection of flaws, reference hole detection should be shown at scanning speed and detection level set accordingly.

2.2 Calibration for Mei;hanjp;d Sgnnin1 When flaw detection is to be done by mechanized equipment, the calibration should be performed using the following guidelines:
- a.
The DAC curve should be established using either a moving transducer mounted on the mechanism that will be used for examination of the component or a mechanism that duplicates the critical factors (e.g., transducer mounting, weight,
pivot points, couplant) present in the scanning mechanism.
- b.
Cah"bration speed should be at or higher than the scanning speed, except when correction factors established in 2.2.d are used.
- c.
The direction of transducer movement (forward or backward) during calibration to establish the DAC curve should be the same direction during scanning unless it can be shown that a change in scanning direction docs not reduce flaw detection capability.
- d.
One
- of the following alternative guidelines should be followed to establish correction factors if static calibration is used:
(1)
Correction factors between dynamic and static response should be established using the basic cah"bration block or, (2)
Correction factors should be established using models and taking scaling factors into consideration (assumed scaling relationship should be verified) or, (3)
Correction factors should be established using full-scale mock-ups.

2.3 Cah"bration Confirmation Cah"bration confirmation performed as mid.shift or interim confirmation between onsite calibrations should comply with stability requirements in T-433, Article 4,Section V, of the ASMECodc.
When an electronic simulator is used for onsite cah"bration confirmation after a Code-required block cah"bration performed off site, the following should apply.
- a.
Complete system performance should be maintained stable prior to offsite calibrations and onsite calibration confirmation by use of target reflectors.
The target reflectors should be mounted with identical physical displacement in both the offsite calibration facilities and the onsite me.chaniud equipment.
Each onsite periodic calibration should be preceded by complete system performance verification using a minimum of two (2) target reflectors separated by a distance representing 75 percent of maximum thickness to be examined.
- b.
Written records of cah'brations should be established for both target reflector responses and Code calibration block DAC curves for each transducer.
These written records may be used to monitor drift since the original recorded calibration.
- c.
Measures should be taken to ensure that the different variables such as temperature, Vibration, and shock limits are minimized by controlling packaging, handling, and storage.

2.4 Calibration Blocks Calibration blocks should comply with Appendix I to Section XI or Article 4,Section V, of the ASME Code.
When an alternative calibration block or a new conventional block is used, a ratio between the DAC curves obtained from the original block and from the new block should be noted (for reference) to prOYide for a meaningful comparison of previous and current data.
The cahbration side-drilled holes in the basic calibration block and the block surface should be protected so that their characteristics do not change during storage.
These side-drilled holes or the block surface should not be modified in any way (e.g., by polishing) between successive examinations. If the block surface or the cahbration reflector holes have been polished by any chemical or mechanical means, this fact should be recorded.

EXAMINATION The scope and extent of the ultrasonic examinations should comply with IWA-2000,Section XI, of the ASME Code.
If electronic gating is used to define the examination volume within which indications are recorded, the start and stop control points should include the entire required thickness including the material near each surface.
If a single gate is used, it should be capable of recording multiple indications appearing in the gate.
Alternative mealiS of recording may be used providing they do not reduce flaw detection and recording capability.
Enmination should be done with a minimum 25-perccnt scan overlap based on the transducer element size.

3.2. Sranninr Weld-Metal Interface The beam anglca used to scan welds should be based on the geometry 9f the weld/parent metal interface.
Where feasible for 'W'Clds such as those identified in Section T-441.4.2 of Article 4,Section V, of the ASME Code, at least one *ang1e should be such that the beam is perpendicular (+/- 15 degrees to perpendicular) to the weld/parent metal interface, or it should be demonstrated that unfavorably oriented planar flaws can be detected by the UT technique being used. If this is not feasible, usc of alternative volumetric NDE techniques, as permitted by the ASME Code, should be considered.
For RPY sM/l seam welds, SwRI wes thi! nominal Code-specified 0-Ugree, 45-degree, and ~
beanU to aaniW the full volume of the wail section except for the WJllune of ""1lerial nar the beam entry point, for whil:h we use the previously mmlioned tandem search units.

6.2 Indic;ations with Chapgjmi Metal Path
- a.
Indications that change metal path distances (indicating throughwall dimension),
when scanned *in accordance with the requirements of ASME Section XI for a distance greater than that recorded from the calibration reflector, should be recorded.
- b.
Reflectors which are at metal paths representing 25 percent and greater of the throughwall thickness of the vessel wall measured from the inner swfacc should be recorded in accordance with the requirements of ASME Section XI and
,.I characterized at SO-percent DAC.
- c.
Reflectors which are within the inner. 25-pcrcent of the throughwall thickness should be recorded at 20-pcrcent DAC.
Characterization should be in accordance with the demonstrated methods under paragraph 6.0. When the indication is sized at 20-pcrcent DAC, the size may be corrected by subtracting the beam width in the through-thickness direction obtained from the calibration hole (between 20-perccnt DAC points) which is at a depth similar to the flaw depth.
If the indication ex.cccds SO-percent DAC, the length should be recorded by measuring the distance between SO-percent DAC levels.
The determined size should be the larger of the two.

6.3 Indications W"ttbout Chan&inr Metal Patb
- a.
Indications which do not change metal path distance when scanned in accordance with the requirements of ASME Section XI and are within the outer 75-percent of the througbwall dimension should be recorded when any continuous dimension c=eeds 1-incb.
- b.
If the indiC:ation falls within the inner 25-perccnt of the throughwall dimensions, it should be recorded at 20-perccnt DAC and evaluated at SO-percent DAC.
- c.
Precautionary note:
Indications lying parallel to welds may appear as nontraveling (without manging metal path) when scanned by parallel moving transducers whose beams arc aimed normal to the weld, i.e., at 90-degrces. Multiple scans, however, may reveal that these indications arc traveling indications.
H so, recording and sizing arc to be done in accordance with paragraph 6.2

6.4 Additional Rccordiur Criteria The following information should also be recorded for indications that arc reportable ac:c:ording to this regulatory position:
- a.
Indications should be recorded at scan intervals no greater than 1/ 4-inch.
- b.
The recorded information should include the indication travel (metal path distance) and the transducer position for 20-percent (where applicable),
SO-percent, and 100-percent DAC and the maximum amplitude of the signal.
- c.
When multiclwmel equipment is used in the examination system such that all examination displays arc not available for simultaneous viewing, an electronic gating system should be used which will provide on-line, reproducible, recorded information regarding metal path, amplitude, and position of all indications aa:eding a present level The represent level should be the minimum recording level required. To ensure that all recordable indications arc recorded, a preferred method would incorporate multigates in each channel or a single gate for each channel with multi-indication recording capability.

REPORTING OF RESULTS Records obtained while following the recommendations of regulatory positions 1.2, 3, and 6, along with discussions and explanations, if any, should be kept available at the site.
II the size of an indication, as determined in regulatory positions 6.2 or 6.3, exceeds the allowable limits of Section XI of the ASME Code, the indications should be reported as abnormal degradation of reactor pressure boundary in accordance with the recommendation of regulatory position 2.a(3) of Regulatory Guide 1.16.
Along with the report of ultrasonic cnmination test results, the following information should also be included:
- a.
The best estimate of the tolerances in sizing of flaws at the sensitivity required m Section 6 and the basis for this estimate.
This estimate may be determined in part by the use of additional reflectors in the basic cah"bration block.
- b.
A description of the technique used to qualify the effectiveness of the examination procedure, including, as a minimum, material, section thickness, and reflectors.
- c.
The best estimates of the portion of the volume required to be examined by the ASME Code that bas not been effectively examined such as volumes of material near each surface because of near-field or other effects, volumes near interfaces between cladding and parent metal, geometry, volumes inaccessible to the transducer, volumes affected by electronic gating. and volumes near the surface opposite the transducer.*
Sketches and/or descriptions of the tools, fixtures, and component geometry which contribute to incomplete c:overagc should be included.
- d.
Provide sketches of equipment (i.e., samning mechanism and transducer holders) with reference points and neccuary dimensions to allow a reviewer to follow the equipment's indication location scheme.
- e.
When other \\'Olumetric techniques are used, a description of the techniques used should be included in the report.
- It should-be noted that the licensee is required to apply for relief from impractical ASME Code requirements according to 50.SSa of 10CFR.
