Reference:

a) License No. DPR-28 (Docket No. 50-271) b) Letter, VYNPC to USNRC dated September 5,1980; Supplement No.1 to VY Proposed Change 81,

" Reactor Vessel Pressure / Temperature Limitations"

Subject:

Supplemental Information in Support of Vermont Yankee Change No. 81, " Reactor Vessel Pressure / Temperature Limitations"

Dear Sir:

Reference (b) proposed new pressure / temperature limitation curves to allow station operation through 1.15E8 MWH(t).

In subsequent conversations with members of the NRC staff, Vermont Yankee was requested to supply additional information in support of Reference (b).

The information requested is provided in the attachments to this letter and the discussion below.

The initial RTNDT for the Vermont Yankee reactor vessel was established by reviewing the original CB&I/Lukens test data on vessel plate and forging materiale ( Attachment 1).

This data was limited in nature, so AEC Branch Technical Position MTEB 5-2 was evoked. Original tests indicated charpy V-notch energies of 30 ft-lbs at +40oF.

Paragraph 1.1. (4) of MTEB 5-2 0

requires an additional +20 F to be added to longitudinal results which fall below +45 F for a charpy V-notch energy of 30 ft-lbs.

Therefore, we added 0

+200F to our +40 F data to arrive at an original RTNDT for vessel materials of +600F.

No copper or other residual chemistry data is available lor the material of interest, so " worst case" "TNDT shift curves are being used.

Additicnal information describing the development of the curves submitted in Reference (b) are contained in Attachment 2.
