Dear Mr. Liu:

SUBJECT:

DUANE ARNOLD ENERGY CENTER - SECOND TEN-YEAR INTERVAL INSERVICE INSPECTION PROGRAM - REQUESTS FOR RELIEF By letter dated January 29, 1993, Iowa Electric Light and Power Company (licensee) submitted two new requests for relief for the Second Ten-Year Interval Inservice Inspection Program Plan and a revision of a previous relief request. As a result of a conference call held on July 28, 1993,_the licensee submitted drawings in a letter dated August 5, 1993.

The staff, with the assistance of its ccatractor, Idaho National Engineering Laboratory (INEL), reviewed and evaluated the licensee's submittals dated January 29, 1993 and August 5,1993, and concluded that in some cases, relief can be granted as requested.

Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(g)(6)(1), the staff concludes that the requirements of the Code are impractical and relief may be granted for request for relief NDE-005 and NDE-Oll.

l Request for relief RR-001 is denied. The staff has concluded that Appendix A is not applicable for fabrication flaws uncovered by repair procedures, and that the acceptance criteria of the construction code should be used.

The staff's evaluation and conclusions are contained in the enclosed Safety Evaluation.

Sincerely, ORIGINAL SIGNED BY: Jon B. Hopkins for John N. Hannon, Director Project Directorate III-3 Division of Reactor Projects III/IV/V Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Enclosure-Safety Evaluation cc w/ enclosure:
