Erosion and Corrosion Induced Pipe Wall Thinning l Supplemental Information Gentlement-The NRC issued Generic Letter 89-08 under 10 CFR 50.54'f) to obtain affirmations regarding eros!.on and corrosion monitoring programs. Upon reviewing LP&L's original rubmittal (re W3P89-3081, dated July 21, 1989),
members of the NRC Staff requested additional information about the erosion / corrosion program at Waterford 3. This letter identifica recommendations in NUREG 1344, Appendix A and compares them to Waterford's erosion / corrosion program.
The original erosion / corrosion program at Waterford 3 had been developed before the NRC issuad NUREG 1344. During Refuel 2. LP&L performed aumerous inspections and evaluations. Since these inspections LP&L revised the program to incorporate the experience gathered during Refuel 2. When the NRC issued Appendix A of NUREG 1344, LP&L evaluated its p-ogram against the NUMARC guidance. As shown in Attachment A, LP&L felt that some aspects of its program exceed those recommended by NUMARC. In other aspects, LP&L found the methodology in the LP&L program to be equivalent to the NUMARC guidance and chose not to make any changes. Therefore, as illustrated in Attachment A, LP&L did not strictly adopt all of the methods recommended by NLHARC. However, the program in place at Waterford ensures erosion / corrosion does not unacceptably degrade high energy carbon steel systems.

LPSL keys the need to examine again on the components remaining life (RL, a function of the calculated wear rate). The shorter the RL, of course, the fewer the number,of refueling outages (RFs) that pass before the next inspection. For example, when an RL53 cycles, LP&L re-examines it at-the next RF. This method is equivalent to the NUREG guidance.
