UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555 July 10, 1992 Docket Nos. 50-272 and 50-311 LICENSEE:

Public Service Electric and Gas Company FACILITY:

Salem Nuclear Generating Station, Units 1 and 2

SUBJECT:

SUMMARY

OF MEETING WITH PUBLIC SERVICE ELECTRIC AND GAS COMPANY (PSE&G) ON JUNE 25, 1992, TO DISCUSS THE EROSION/CORROSION PROGRAM AND THE RESULTS OF THE FEEDWATER SYSTEM EXAMINATION AT SALEM UNITS 1 AND 2 (TAC M83761)

On June 25, 1992, PSE&G met with the NRC staff to provide information concerning the program being applied at Salem 1 and 2 to identify areas within the piping systems that were susceptible to the erosion/corrosion phenomena.

Also, the results of examinations of the main feedwater system at Salem 1 and 2 were discussed.

Background:

Region I performed an inspection of the erosion/corrosion (E/C) program at PSE&G during the week of May 25, 1992.

As a result of that inspection, a question was raised about the pressure being used in the calculation of minimum wall thickness.

PSE&G then determined that the correct*

pressure should be the system design pressure. A re-evaluation of the data identified six areas in the safety-related section of the main feedwater system piping of Salem 2 that either were below minimum wall or were predicted to be below minimum wall at the end of the current operating cycle.

In addition, a number of areas in the non-safety-related portion of the main feedwater, condensate, and heater drain systems were identified as exhibiting E/C and approaching minimum wall in both Salem 1 and 2.

Salem 1 was at the end of a refueling outage and was in Mode 5, Salem 2 was operating at 100%

power.

During the period between June 12, 1992 and June 18, 1992, a series of telephone conference calls between Region I, NRR and PSE&G were held to discuss resolution of the E/C issues.

On June 18, 1992, PSE&G notified NRR and Region I that in their continuing reviews of the ultrasonic test data, one area of the Salem 2 feedwater system did not have sufficient data to provide assurance that the area exhibiting E/C had been fully examined.

Because of the lack of that data, PSE&G elected to take Salem Unit 2 off line. The staff then requested PSE&G to come to the NRC's Rockville, Maryland, office for a presentation of their E/C program, the results of their inspections, and their corrective actions, both programmatic and system upgrade.

Summary:

1.

Erosion/Corrosion Program PSE&G's E/C program is based on NRC Bulletin 87-01, NRC Generic Letter 89-08, and INPO, EPRI and NUMARC guidance.

During their review of the E/C program, PSE&G identified the following deficiencies, and the corrective action as noted was taken:

. - A.

The basis for system selection was not documented.

The basis for the system selection was subsequently documented and an independent review by a third party was in progress.

B.

The methodology for component selection and the application of the methodology was not documented.

The methodology for component selection was subsequently documented, and an independent review by a third party had been completed.

The component selection documentation (i.e., the application of the methodology) was completed and an independent third party review was in progress.

C.

There were inconsistencies in the component selection between Unit 1 and Unit 2.

Additional components were selected for inspection to resolve the inconsistencies.

Inspections of the additional components were in progress.

D.

PSE&G was using the EPRI developed CHEC program.

They will convert to CHECMATE before the next refueling outages at both Salem 1 and 2.

2.

Ultrasonic Test (UT)

On reviewing the UT test results, PSE&G found that in some cases where thinning was noted at the grid boundary, the examination had not been extended to establish the full extent of the thinning and the minimum wall thickness in the area. Written directions were issued to extend the grid to two pipe diameters beyond the boundary and until the pipe wall was 75 mils above the calculated minimum wall thickness.

The identified areas were in the process of being reexamined.

3.

Data Evaluation For areas that were within 75 mils of the calculated minimum wall thickness, PSE&G performed calculations to determine the projected wall thickness at the end of the current operating cycle.

However, during their review of the data, they found some areas where the projected minimum wall had not been calculated. Calculations were being performed to predict the minimum wall thickness at the end of the cycle.

In the calcul~tion of minimum acceptable wall thickness, one parameter that is used is the system pressure.* Originally, PSE&G was using the system operating pressure in the calculations.

When the use of operating pressure was questioned by the Region I inspector, PSE&G reexamined the issue and determined that the correct pressure should be the system design pressure. After reanalysis, there were a number of areas that either were below minimum wall thickness or projected to be below minimum wall thickness at the end of the operating cycle.

The minimum wall calculation performed by PSE&G used a design pressure of 1893 psig, but increased the allowable stress in the pipe wall by the factor of 1.2. The design pressure is based on the shut-off head of the

'. main feedwater pump plus the shut-off head of the condensate pump.

The NRC staff objected to the use of the 1.2 factor in calculating the minimum wall thickness. The staff's position was that in calculating the minimum wall thickness, the design pressure and allowable stress is

~sed. The 1.2 factor in allowable stress is only applied for cases where pressure transients above the design pressure occur less than 1%

of the time.

This issue is still open.

For the safety-related portion of the main feedwater system, the licensee argued that using the design pressure was overly conservative because this section is unisolable from the steam generator.

The steam generator has a design pressure of 1085 psig and is protected by five safety valves with settings that range from 1070 psig to 1125 psig.

Because the piping cannot be isolated from the steam generators, the use of 1893 psig for the design pressure was deemed overly conservative by PSE&G.

Based on their evaluation, a reduced design pressure of about 1335 psig was used in calculating the minimum wall.

PSE&G will provide the staff the bases for the 1335 psig design pressure.

4.

Corrective Action A.

PSE&G committed to immediately replace any p1p1ng that was currently or projected to be below minimum wall thickness by the end of the operating cycle. This is applicable to both safety-related piping and balance-of-plant piping.

B.

Areas adjacent to the BF-19 (feedwater regulating valves) valves that have potentially unacceptable thin walls will be repaired using a full circumferential weld buildup.

The wall thinning was determined to be a counterbore machining error, not an E/C issue.

5.

Other Issues PSE&G performed radiography (RT) and UT examinations of the steam generator expanders at both Salem 1 and 2 to determine if cracking had occurred as a result of thermal fatigue.

One, #14 in Unit 1, showed indications, but PSE&G was still evaluating the indication~

6.

Open Issues A.

The bases for re-rating the design pressure of the portion of the feedwater system that is unisolable from the steam generator; B.

Detailed calculation of minimum wall thickness and the application of the 1.2 factor for maximum allowable stress including assumptions and the bases for the assumptions; C.

Details of calculations of *E/C r~tes; and D.

The assurance that the corrosion pattern in the feedwater piping is not in the form of a sine curve.

provides the results of utilizing these criteria for the Salem Unit i safety related piping.

The results support operation until the next refueling outage.

Modifications will be made which return the piping system to within the design code criteria by the end of the next refueling outage, or sooner.

301 504 1137:~ 5/ 7 BASIS DRAFT Sustained Loads The criterion for longitudinal stresses due to sustained loads is the normal ANSI B31.1 criterion.

Use of this criterion with the minimum wall thickness predicted at the end of the next refueling outage and a section modulus based to this same wall thickness provides the full code safety margins for longitudinal stress.

The criterion foJ hoop stress assures that through-thickness yielding of the thinned section of the pipe will not occur if the pipe were to be pressurized to the design pressure.

rt also assures that the hoop stresses in the thinned section are well below the material code-minimum yield stress for the normal operating preture.

Occasional LO s

The criterion or longitudinal stresses due to occasional loads is the normal ANSI BJ.1.1 criterion.

Use of this criterion with the minimum wall thickness predicted at the end of the next refueling outage and section modulus based to this same wall thickness provides the full code safety' margins for longitudinal stress.

Therinal Expansion Loads\\

The criterion for iJngitudinal stresses due to thermal expansion loads is the normal Bl.l criterion.

Use of this criterion with the minimum wall thickness predicted at the end of the next refueling outage and a section modulus based to this same wall thickness provid~s the full code safety margins for longitudinal stress.
