SUBJECT:
Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant Unit No. 2; Docket No. 50-318 Report of Steam Generator Tube Plunninn
REFERENCE:
(a) Calvert Cliffs Unit 2 Technical Specification 4.4.5.5 Gentlemen:
As required by Reference (a), this letter reports the number of tubes plugged in the Calvert Cliffs Unit 2 Steam Generators during the recent April through July, 1989 Inservice inspection. Eleven tubes were found to have indications which exceeded the Technical Specification plugging limit of 40% loss of nominal wall thickness. An additional 11 tubes were plugged as a preventive measure. Of the 22 tubes plugged during this inservice inspection,12 tubes were plugged in Steam Generator #21 and 10 tubes were plugged in Steam Generator #22.
Attachments (1) and (2) list the tubes plugged during the 1989 Unit 2 Refueling Outage along with the reason for plugging each tube. Attachment (3) is a sketch indicating i
Steam Generator support locations and nomenclature.
All of the tubes in service in each Steam Generator were examined. The 100% inspection required a total of 16,947 tubes to be examined. Of the 16,947 tubes t;xamined, 212 tubes had indications cf' 20% or greater through-wall degradation. As stated above, 11 of these indications exceeded the plugging limit. Six tubes were plugged in Steam Generator #21 and 5 tubes were plugged in Steam Generator #22 for this reason.
As a preventive measure,11 additional tubes with indications in the sludge pile, upper supports or free span areas were plugged. Of these additional iI tubes taken out of y
service, 6 were in Steam Generator #21 and 5 were in Steam Generator #22.
Previous metallurgical examination of Unit I tubing has shown degradation in the sludge pile area was-caused by Intergranualar Attack (IGA). Five tubes in the sludge pile region with indications less than the plugging limit were plugged because of the potential for a local active IGA mechanism just above the tube sheet, in the upper U-bend support area, previous metallurgical examination of Unit I tubing has shown degradation in this area was caused by mechanical wear.

Doe:: ment C;;; trol Desk February 21, 1990 Page 2 U-bend region with indications less than the plugging limit were plugged due to the
- possibility of an active mechanical wear mechanism.
One tube was plugged as a precaution due to outer diameter wall loss of 36% in the free span area. Previous examination of this tube in 1987 had found no detectable degradation.
Should you have any further questions regarding this matter, we will be pleased to discuss them with you.
l Very truly yours,
