Objective To assure the continued integrity of the reactor coolant system pressure boundary.

Specification 4.2.1 Prior to initial unit operation, an ultrasonic test survey shall be made of reactor coolant system pressure boundary welds as required to establish preoperational integrity and baseline data for future inspections.

4.2.2 Post operational inspections of components shall be made in accordance with the methods and intervals indicated in IS-242 and IS-261 of Section XI of the AS)E Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,1971, including 1372 Summer Addenda, except as follows:

S-261 Item Component Exception 1.4 Primary No::le to 1 RC inlet no::le to be inspe cted at Vessel Welds approximately 31/3 years of the inspection interval. All four RC inlet nozzles to be inspected at or near the end of the inspection inter-val. At approximately 6 2/.~ years of the inspection interval, both RC outlet nozzles will be inspected.

At approximately 31/3 years of the inspection interval, one core flood no:zle will be inspected and one core flood nozzle will be inspect.ed at or near the e.nd of the inspection interval.

h.2 7 Reactor vessel specimenn shall be removed and examined, to deter-mine changes in material properties, at specimen exposure (E>lNey) equivalent to 3, 9.5,16 and 22.5 Ef f ective Full Power Years (EFFT) of operation.

This withdraval schedule may be modified to coincide with thonc ref ueling outages or plant shutdowns, when the reactor head is removed, most closely approaching the withdrawal' schedule.

Resulto of 'these examinations shall be used to update Technical Specific.1 tion 3.1.2.

Specimcas not subj ected en destructive tenting af ter the first 0.93 EFPY of Cycle l iay be removed and stored during the remainder of Cycle 1, but shall be re-installed prior to Cycle 2.
