SUMMARY

OF MARCH 1, 1982 MEETING WITH RG&E TO DISCUSS THE REC 0VERY ACTIVITIES AT THE R. E. GINNA PLANT On Monday, March 1,1982, members of the NRC staff met with representatives of Rochester Gas and Electric Corp. (RG&E) and Westinghouse to discuss the recovery program at R. E. Ginna. RG&E has decided to extend the current outage in order to refuel and perform other scheduled maintenance through-out the plant concurrent with the steam generator repairs. As required by a letter from D. Eisenhut, NRC, to J. Maier, RG&E, the licensee will obtain the NRC's prior approval, based on written submittals, before significant and irreversible programs are ondertaken. The purpose of this meeting was to obtain the NRC's approval for the removel of a small number of tube :

samples for metallurgical examination. A copy of the slides used by RG&E during the presentation and the attendence list are enclosed.

Video inspections of both steam generators have been completed. Several foreign objects have been located in the periphery of the "B" steam generator hot leg and of the "A" cold leg.

In addition, a number of damaged tubes have been seen on the periphery of the "B" hot leg.

In general, the damage in the "B" hot leg periphery is restricted to previously plugged tubes although some minor scrape marks are visible on currently in-service tubes. The scrape marks are below the minimum sensitivity of theveddy current inspection technique. No damaged tubes have been seen in the "B" cold leg or in either of the hot leg or the cold leg of the "A" steam generator.

Investigations as to the failure mechanism are continuing. Originally, the cause investigation centered around possible mechanical loading j

mechanisms on tubes between the first support plate and the tube sheet l

with flow induced vibration as a contributing factor. The current l

cause investigation, since discovery of foreign objects in the "B" steam generator, is focussing on mechanical failure of plugged tubes as the result of impact by foreign objects and the progression of damage on l

structurally degraded plugged tubes with possible resultant damage to other tubes including the burst tube.

However, the investigation program is designed to provide information regarding other possible failure mechanisms and is not restricted to a single postulated cause.

(

( March 8, 1982 The next step in RG&E's plans is to remove a small number of steam generator tube sections for metallurgical examination in order to obtain additional information necessary to finalize repair plans and to assist in determination of the failure mechanism.

RG&E proposed that sections of at least 4 tubes be removed for metallurgical analy-sis; this would include R42C55, R43C55, R44C55 and 45C47. The first tube is the burst tube, the second and third tubes must be removed to obtain access to the burst tube, and the fourth tube is one with an eddy current indication approximately 24 inches above the tube.' sheet.

The sections removed for analysis will be between the tube sheet and first support plate.

The removal process will involve putting a 3 inch access port in the steam generator shell, EDM and mechanical cutting (of tubes, and possible removal of one periphery U-bend section R45C47). RG&E has not identified any other tube sections to be removed, although a small number may be identified should it appear important information could be obtained from an additional,small, number of tubes.

The NRC staff concurred with RG&E's proposal to remove the steam generator tube sections and instructed RG&E to inform the NRC if additional tubes that might provide valuable information are to be removed. Upon comp', icn of removal of the steam generator tube samples, RG&E will perform previot2y planned maintenance to the upper portions of the steam generator while formulating their final course of action. The licensee expects to be able to return for a meeting with the NRC staff to present their finalized recovery program in the next two or three weeks.

.CAUSE INVESTIGATION l

- Original cause investigation for plugged tubes in outer periphery of "B" Steam Generator since May 1975.

Consideration of possible mechanical loading mechanisms on tubes between the 1st support plate and the tube sheet with flow induced vibration as a contributing factor.

- Current cause investigation since discovery of foreign objects in the shell annulus of "B" steam generation on 2/10/82.

Mechanical failure of plugged tubes as the result of impact by foreign objects in a high cross velocity field.

Progression of damage on structurally degraded plugged tubes with possible resultant damage to other tubes ir.cluding burnt tube.

6 a

+

(

(

~

Potential Failure Mechanism Postulated Failure Mechanism supported by:

Fact that first indications on B Steam Generator periphery occurred at first outage (1976) following removal of downcomer resistance plate (1975).

Postulated Failure Mechanism cannot be confirmed without additional inspections, an'alysis and testing.

Steam Generator Program designed to provide information regarding other possible failure mechanisms.

Investigations not restricted to a single postulated cause.
