Section H Stainless Steel Piping RS and CS UT System Welds In accordance with VEPCO correspondence (Serial No. 345/112476, ,Tan~ 11~ 1977) to Mr. Moseley, U. S *.Nuclear Regulatory Commission> a volumetric examination was performed on the recirculation and containment spray systems piping. Twenty welds were inspected with preference given to welds located in the low areas. The inspection was accomplished using VEPCO UT Procedure NDT-11.1~ The accept/reject

/,**

, criteria was NB-5330 of Section III ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code thru Summer of 1975 Addenda.

e EXAMINATION RESULTS:

.*r \..

Relevant indications were found by visual methods on the Low Head SIS Piping. Visual indications of arc strikes~ weld splatter, .rust and scale were found on*the*Low Head SIS Piping in the valve pit. These indications were numerous, and were not judged to be.of a serious nature for immediate correction; therefore, these indications willbe removed*by proper maintenance procedures as the station scheduling permits.

The Recirculation and Containment Spray Ultrasonic examination revealed two reportable indications (Weld No. 3 on RS-103-153 and Weld No. 3 on RS-104-153),

however, after radiography was performed, these. welds were evaluated as acceptable.

The ultrasonic indications were caused by I .. D. and O.D. geometry.

Photograpi1s of all indications (visual and ultra.sonic) were taken. These photos and the radiographic film on the R.S. system~ will remain on file with the Surry Records DepartmP.nt at Surry Power Station. They are available upon request.

In* accordance with the VEPCO correspondenoe *previously mentioned, concerni:,1g the Recirculation and Containment Spray systems piping, this report includes the following brief description of activities which provide assurance that the piping will be dry or flushed to maintain the low levels of corrodants.

The shell side drains on all Recirculation Spray Heat Exchangers and the iow point drains installed on the spray header piping are left open (per valve I

lineup checkout). These drains are periodically inspected for unusual drainage.

Dewatering pumps have b.een installed at the inside Recirculation Spray Pump suction wells. Procedure changes have been implemented which require dewatering the pump wells prior to operating the pumps for the required monthly surveillance test.

(

e 3 Each heat exchanger shell side was flushed with primary grade water, during the refueling outage, to insure a minimum amount of residual contami-nants at the start of the operating period"

( SURRY NO. 2 SEPTEMBER 1977 EDDY CURRENT INSPECTION In September 1977, Eddy Current Inspection i,as performed by VEPCO on the tubes in Loops "A11 , "B", and "C".Steam Generators. The inspection program was performed to reins*pect those areas found to have eddy current indications during the previous inspection; and to inspect areas which are suspected to have indications. The Eddy Current Inspection was coriducted in accordance with VEPCO Procedure NDT-14.1, and Regulatory Guide 1.83. Included in this report are the certifications of the data collectors and evaluators. This program specified examination at lf00 KHZ to detect and measure potential tube defects. Also included in this report are the calibration certification sheets on the electronic r-.. equipment and calibration standard used during the. inspection program.

\___,

A U--Bend Inspection of all available tubes in the first five rows was j

conducted from the Cold Leg in each steam generator at 100 KHZ. This i~spection revealed no detectable defects in the U-Bend regions.

Additional gaging inspections were conducted in the Hot Leg of each steam generator. This gaging program was based on past experiences, and to an extent, was run in conjunction with_the Regulatory Guide inspection.
