j a.

As used in this Specification:

i j

1.

Imoerfection means an exception to the dimensions, finish or contour of a tube or sleeve from that I

required by fabrication drawings or specifications.

Eddy-current testing indications below 20 percent of the nominal tube wall thickness, if detectable, may be considered as imperfections.

2.

Dearadation means a service-induced cracking,

wastage, wear or general corrosion occurring on either inside or outside of a tube or sleeve.

3.

Deoraded Tube means a tube or sleeve containing imperfections greater than or equal to 20 percent of the nominal wall thickness caused by degradation.

4.

Percent Deoradation means the percentage of the tube or sleeve wall thickness affected or removed by degradation.

5.

Defect means an imperfection of such severity that it exceeds the plugging or repair limit.

A tube containing a defect is defective. Any tube which does not permit the passage of the eddy-current inspection probe shall be deemed a defective tube.

6.

Pluccina or Recair Limit means the imperfection depth at or beyond which the tube shall be removed from service by plugging or repaired by sleeving in the affected area because it may become unserviceable prior to the next inspection.

The plugging or repair limit imperfection depths are specified in percentage j

of nominal wall thickness as follows:

i a.

Original tube wall 40%

b.

Babcock & Wilcox kinetic welded sleeve wall 40%

c.

Westinghouse laser welded sleeve wall 25%i BEAVER VALLEY - UNIT 1 3/4 4-10a Amendment No.176

l DPR-66 REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM i

SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS (Continued) 7.

Unserviceable describes the condition of a tube if it leaks or contains a defect large enough to affect its structural integrity in the event of an Operating Basis Earthquake, a loss-of-coolant accident, or a steam line or feedwater line break as specified in 4.4.5.3.c, above.

8.

Tube Inspection means an inspection of the steam generator tube from the point of entry (hot leg side) completely around the U-bend to the top support to the cold leg.

9.

Tube Recair refers to sleeving which is used to j

maintain a tube in-service or return a tube to service. This includes the removal of plugs that were installed as a corrective or preventive measure.

The following sleeve designs have been found acceptable:

a)

Babcock Wilcox kinetic welded

sleeves, BAW-2094P, Revision 1 including kinetic sleeve

" tooling" and installation process parameter changes.

b)

Westinghouse laser welded sleeves, WCAP-13483, Revision 1.

b.

The steam generator shall be determined OPERABLE after completing the corresponding actions (plug or repair all tubes exceeding the plugging or repair limit) required by Table 4.4-2.

l 4.4.5.5 Reoorts 1

a.

Within 15 days following the completion of each inservice inspection of steam generator tubes, the number of tubes plugged or repaired in each steam generator shall be reported to the Commission in a Special Report pursuant to Specification 6.9.2.

j b.

The complete results of the steam generator tube and sleeve inservice inspection shall be submitted to the Commission in a Special Report pursuant to Specification 6.9.2 within 12 months following the completion of the inspection. This Special Report shall include:

1.

Number and extent of tubes and sleeves inspected.

2.

Location and percent of wall-thickness penetration for each indication of an imperfection.
