Subject:
IE Bulletin 79-17 North Anna Power Station Unit 1
Dear Mr. O'Reilly:
We have reviewed the subject bulletin, " Pipe Cracks in Stagnant Borated Water Systems at PWR Plants", and are forwarding our response to Item 1 for your information for North Anna Power Station Unit 1.
If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact this office.
Very truly yours, o
y C. M. Stallings, Vice President-Power Supply and Production Operations Attachment cc: Director, Division of Operating Reactors Office of Inspection and Enforcement Washington, D. C.

Page 1 Attachment Response to IE Bulletin 79-17 Pipe Cracks In Stagnant Borated Water Systems At PWR Plants North Anna Power Station Unit 1 All safety related stainless steel piping systems were reviewed and the systems or portions of systems which are greater than 215 inches in diameter and contain stagnant oxygenated borated water were identified.
(a) Inservice inspection (ISI) examinations have not yet been performed on the stagnant portions of systems which were identified.
The examination required by Item 2 of this bulletin will be completed and the results of the inspections will be reported as requested.
(b) When in service, the water in safety related systems is periodically sampled and analyzed to ensure proper chemistry. The Residual Heat Removal System, for example, is sampled and analyzed prior to placing it in service and during system operation.
Safety related tanks, such as the Refueling Water Storage Tank, Boron Injection Tank and Casing Cooling Tank are also sampled and their chemistry maintained as required by the Technical Specifications. At present there is no means to check the chemistry of water which is dead legged because of its inaccessibility for sampling. As a result, the chemistry of the water in these stagnant lines cannot be determined.
(c) Attached is the list of identified systems which have been subjected to preservice inspection. The preservice examinations were performed in accordance with the 1974 edition of ASME Section XI with i Summer 1975 addenda and acceptance criteria determined accordingly.
(d) No cracking has previously been experienced in the stagnant systems which have been identified.
