Dear Mr. Schwencer:

This letter is in response to your request of May 23, 1977 for additional information on the Ginna reactor vessel material surveillance program.

In our letter of July 14, 1977 we answered questions 1,

2 and 4.b(12) of your letter as well as requested additional time for our NSSS supplier, Westinghouse, to develop the answers to your other questions.

Since then we have received the answers to your remaining questions and are transmitting them to you as Attachment A to this letter.

Also you willfind a description of our surveillance program as found in Ginna Station Technical Specification Section 4.3 as Attachment B to this letter.

As requested we are enclosing one signed original and 39 copies of this letter and its attachments for your use.

Very truly yours, L. D. White, Jr.

REACTOR VESSEL tlATERIAL SURVEILLANCE PROGRAM 1.)

The estimated maximum'fluence (E

1 Yiev) at the inner surface of the reactor vessel wall as of March 31, 1977 is 5.26 x 10'8 n/cm~.

2.)

The effective full power years (EFPY) of operation accumulated as of March 31, 1977 is 4.55 EFPY.

3.)

Fabrication of the reactor vessel was performed by Babcock 5 'Hi lcox Co.

4.)

a.)

Sketch o

the reactor vessel showing base material and welds in the beltline region is shown in Figure l.

b.)

Information on each of the welds in the beltline region is shown in Tables 1 through 4.

c.)

Information on each of the shell forgings in the beltline region is

.shown'in, Tables 4 through 7.

e ATTACHMENTB 4.3.0 REACTOR VESSEL MATERIAL SURVEXLLANCE PROGRAM Applies to the tests of the metallurgical specimens taken from the reactor beltline region.

To provide data for the determination of the fracture

'toughness of the reactor vessel.

4.3.1 The reactor vessel material surveillance testing.

program is designed to meet the requirements of Appendix H to 10 CFR Part 50.

This program consists of the metallurgical specimens receiving the follow-ing test:

tensile, charpy impact and the WOL test.

These test of the Radiation, Capsule Speciments shall be performed as follows:

Casu le Time Tested End of 1st core cycle End of 3rd core cycle 10 years, at nearest refueling 20 years, at nearest refueling 30 years, at nearest. refueling Standby 4.3.2 The report of the Reactor Vessel Material Surveillance shall be written as a Summary Technical Report as required by Appendix H to 10CFR Part 50.

Basis:

wh,I II iw Thi material surveillance program monitors changes I) in the fracture toughness properties of ferritic materials in the reactor. vessel beltline region of the reactor resulting from exposure to neutron irradiation and the thermal environment.

The test data obtained from this program will be used to determine the conditions under which the reactor vessel can be operated with adequate margins of safety against fracture throughout its service life.
