--lnservice Inspection Impracticality--

1. ASME Code Component(s) Affected Code Class: 1

Reference:

IWB-2500, Table IWB-2500-1, ASME Code Case N-460, Examination Category: 8-D Item Number: 83.110

Description:

Limited Examination Coverage Component Number: See Tables RR-02.1 and RR-02.2 for a list of Component IDs

2. Applicable Code Edition and Addenda

The Fourth 10-Year Interval of the Farley Nuclear Plant (FNP), Units 1 and 2 lnservice Inspection (lSI) Program was based on the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel (B&PV) Code,Section XI, 2001 Edition through the 2003 Addenda.

FNP, Units 1 and 2 examinations were performed in accordance with the requirements of ASME,Section XI, Article 4 of Section V. In the case of limited examinations, efforts were made to obtain additional examination coverage.

3. Applicable Code Requirements The extent of examination requirement for Examination Category 8-D, Item Number 83.110, per Table IWB-2500-1, requires a volumetric examination of essentially 100% of the weld length.
4. Impracticality of Compliance Pursuant to 10CFR50.55a(g)(5)(iii), relief is requested on the basis that conformance with these code requirements is impractical since conformance would require extensive structural modifications to the component or surrounding structure.

Due to the original design of these components, it is not feasible to effectively perform the examinations to the extent required for welds and welded attachments (greater than 90% of the volume or area) due to physical obstructions, plant location, and/or component geometry.

FNP is unable to satisfy the ASME Section XI Code requirements to perform a surface or volumetric examination of these components due to the physical component configuration, interference from permanent plant equipment, single-sided access, etc. FNP would incur significant engineering, material, and E1-1

Southern Nuclear Operating Company Farley Nuclear Plant, Units 1 & 2 Fourth 10-Year Interval 10 CFR 50.55a Request Number FNP-ISI-RR-02 installation costs to perform such modifications without a compensating increase in the level of quality and safety. Therefore, relief is requested on the basis that the ASME Section XI Code requirements to examine these components are impractical.

Tables RR-02.1 and RR-02.2 provide a summary of the examination limitations for each component for which relief is requested. The tables also indicate the outage the component was examined, the coverage percentage obtained for each component, and other pertinent design information. These tables are the cumulative lists of the limited ASME Section XI examinations performed during the Fourth lSI Interval. Figures 2-1 through 2-9 provide typical configuration and coverage plots that detail the examination limitations. The shaded areas in the figures show where at least one scan angle is achieved All the welds in the referenced tables, receive an inner radius examination with 100% coverage. No recordable indications have documented on any of these components with the examinations performed during the 4th interval. In reviewing the SNC fleet operating experience, (Vogtle Units 1 and 2 and Farley Units 1 and

2) no leakage or indications that require flaw evaluations or repairs have been found from the Category B-D, Item No. B3.11 0.

Based on the above explanation, SNC requests relief to perform examinations without achieving ASME Section XI Code compliance coverage when the required coverage is impractical.

5. Burden Caused by Compliance Compliance with the applicable ASME Section XI Code volumetric or surface examination requirements can only be accomplished by redesigning and refabricating the subject and/or surrounding components. Based on this, the ASME Section XI Code requirements are deemed impractical in accordance with 10CFR50.55a(g)(5)(iii).
6. Proposed Alternative and Basis for Use FNP has performed the ASME Section XI Code required examinations to the maximum extent practical (Code Coverage), which are documented in Tables RR-02.1 and RR-02.2. Due to the physical interferences causing these limitations, there are no alternative examination techniques currently available to increase coverage.
7. Duration of Proposed Alternative The proposed alternative is applicable for the Fourth lnservice Inspection Interval, extending from December 1, 2007 through November 30, 2017.

--lnservice Inspection Impracticality--

1. ASME Code Component(s) Affected Code Class: 1&2

Reference:

IWB-2500, Table IWB-2500-1, IWC-2500, Table IW8-2500-1, ASME Code Case N-460, ASME Code Case N-716, Table 1 Examination Category: 8-F, 8-J, C-F-1, R-A Item Number: 85.70, 89.11, 89.21, C5.11, R1.11, R1.16, R1.20

Description:

Limited Examination Coverage Component Number: See Tables RR-03.1 and RR-03.2 for a list of Component IDs

2. Applicable Code Edition and Addenda

The Fourth 10-Year Interval of the Farley Nuclear Plant (FNP), Units 1 and 2 lnservice Inspection (lSI) Program was based on the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel (B&PV) Code,Section XI, 2001 Edition through the 2003 Addenda.

FNP, Units 1 and 2 maintains the responsibility to ensure exams were performed in accordance with the requirements of ASME,Section XI, Appendix VIII, "Performance Demonstration for Ultrasonic Examination Systems," as amended and mandated by 10CFR50.55a and as modified by the Performance Demonstration Initiative (PDI) Program description. In the case of limited examinations, efforts were made to obtain additional examination coverage. Tables RR-03.1 and RR-03.2 identify if the examinations were performed in accordance with the requirements of ASME,Section XI, Appendix VIII.

3. Applicable Code Requirements The extent of examination requirement for Examination Category 8-F, Item Number 85.70, per Table IWB-2500-1, requires a volumetric examination of 100% of the weld.

The extent of examination requirement for Examination Category 8-J, Item Numbers 89.11 and 89.21, per Table IWB-2500-1, requires a surface and volumetric examination of essentially 100% of the weld length.

The extent of examination requirement for Examination Category C-F-1, Item Number C5.11, per Table IWC-2500-1, requires a surface and volumetric examination of essentially 100% of the weld length.

E2-1

Southern Nuclear Operating Company Farley Nuclear Plant, Units 1 & 2 Fourth 10-Year Interval 10 CFR 50.55a Request Number FNP-ISI-RR-03 The extent of examination requirement for Examination Category A-A, Item No. R1.11, per Code Case N-716 Table 1, requires a volumetric examination of High Safety Significant (HSS) pressure-retaining welds of Class 1 and 2 welds subject to Thermal Fatigue.

The extent of examination requirement for Examination Category A-A, Item No. R1.16, per Code Case N-716 Table 1, requires a volumetric examination of HHS pressure-retaining welds of Class 1 and 2 welds subject to lntergranular or Transgranular Stress Corrosion Cracking (IGSCC or TGSCC).

The extent of examination requirement for Examination Category A-A, Item No. R1.20, per Code Case N-716 Table 1, requires a volumetric examination of HHS pressure-retaining welds of Class 1 and 2 welds not subject to a degradation method.

During the Fourth lSI Interval, no recordable indications were identified during examination of the Examination Category A-A components listed in Tables RR-03.1 and RR-03.2.

FNP, Units 1 and 2 adopted ASME Code Case N-460 ("Alternative Examination Coverage for Class 1 and Class 2 Welds,Section XI, Division 1"), which defines "essentially 100%" as greater than 90% coverage of the examination volume or surface area, as applicable. The 90% minimum coverage was applied to all surface and volumetric examinations required by ASME Section XI.

4. Impracticality of Compliance Pursuant to 10CFR50.55a(g)(5)(iii), relief is requested on the basis that conformance with these code requirements is impractical since conformance would require extensive structural modifications to the component or surrounding structure.

Due to the original design of these components, it is not feasible to effectively perform the examinations to the extent required for welds and welded attachments (greater than 90% of the volume or area) due to physical obstructions, plant location, and/or component geometry.

FNP is unable to satisfy the ASME Section XI Code requirements to perform a surface or volumetric examination of these components due to the physical component configuration, interference from permanent plant equipment, single-sided access, etc.

FNP would incur significant engineering, material, and installation costs to perform such modifications without a compensating increase in the level of quality and safety.

Therefore, relief is requested on the basis that the ASME Section XI Code requirements to examine these components are impractical.

For the AI-lSI weld population, Examination Category A-A welds, submitted in this relief request, a case by case review was performed to determine whether additional or alternative welds could have been examined to supplement the reduced volumetric coverage examination. Below summarize the additional examinations performed:

E2-2

Southern Nuclear Operating Company Farley Nuclear Plant, Units 1 & 2 Fourth 10-Year Interval 10 CFR 50.55a Request Number FNP-ISI-RR-03 For item number R1.11, six (6) additional examinations were performed.

For item number R1.20, 147 additional examinations were performed with this degradation method. 138 of these examinations are in the Break Exclusion Region and required by Technical Specifications to inspect every 10 years under an augmented program.

For the Category B-F Item B5.70 welds, Steam Generator Nozzle-to-Safe-End, the steam generator was replaced in the 3rd Interval for Units 1 and 2. The materials of construction for these welds are as follows: Safe End- SA-336 F316LN, Nozzle- SA-508 Class 3, Weld Filler- SFA-5.11 CL ENiCrFe-7. Per the Westinghouse Design Reports, WNEP-9830 (Unit 1} and WCAP-15601(Unit 2), the peak stress ratio in the inspectable section of the exam volume is similar in magnitude to the area that is unable to be inspected. No recordable indications were found with these examinations. This gives reasonable assurance of structural integrity or leak tightness continues to exist Tables RR-03.1 and RR-03.2 provide a summary of the examination limitations for each component for which relief is requested. The tables also indicate the outage the component was examined, the coverage percentage obtained for each component, and other pertinent design information. These tables are the cumulative lists of the limited ASME Section XI examinations performed during the Fourth lSI Interval. Figures 3-1 through 3-30 provide coverage plots which were extracted from the non-destructive examination (NDE) summary sheets that detail the examination limitations.

Based on the above explanation, SNC requests relief to perform examinations without achieving ASME Section XI Code compliance coverage when the required coverage is impractical.

5. Burden Caused by Compliance Compliance with the applicable ASME Section XI Code volumetric or surface examination requirements can only be accomplished by redesigning and refabricating the subject and/or surrounding components. Based on this, the ASME Section XI Code requirements are deemed impractical in accordance with 10CFR50.55a(g)(5)(iii).
6. Proposed Alternative and Basis for Use FNP has performed the ASME Section XI Code required examinations to the maximum extent practical (Code Coverage), which are documented in Tables RR-03.1 and RR-03.2. Due to the physical interferences causing these limitations, there are no alternative examination techniques currently available to increase coverage.
7. Duration of Proposed Alternative Relief is requested for the Fourth lSI Interval for FNP, Units 1 and 2.
