Atlanta, GA 30303 BRUNSWICK STEAM ELECTRIC PLANT, UNIT NOS. 1 AND 2 DOCKET NOS. 50-325 AND 50-324 LICENSE NOS. DPR-71 AND DPR-62 SUPPLEMENTAL RESPONSE TO IE BULLETIN 82-03 (Revision 1)
Dear Mr. O'Reilly:
In our Jetter of December 16, 1982, Carolina Power & Light Company provided requested information on the Recirculation System IGSCC inspection program for Brunswick Unit No. 1.
Due to concerns expressed during subsequent inspections by Region II inspectors and program changes initiated by CP&L, the original response is hereby supplemented.
A review of the December 16, 1982, submittal and its support documentation determined that the IGSCC susceptibility study performed for BSEP by General Electric (GE) contained some errors due to nomenclature problems between the two BSEP units. GE had referenced the units in its report as CP&L Unit Nos. I and 2, as they were designated under the original NSSS contract; however, CP&L Unit No. 1 is actually BSEP Unit No. 2 and CP&L Unit No. 2 is BSEP Unit No. 1.
The corrected table of stress rule index numbers, carbon content valves, and susceptibility rankings is enclosed.
None of the stress rule index numbers changed, and the susceptibility ranks changed only to reflect that GE now considers "1.1" to be the threshold valve for a susceptible joint.
To clarify the basis for selection and the applicable inspection requirements for the Unit No. I weld sample, a listing of the recirculation system and Residual Heat Removal System welds that are being tested is included in the enclosed table. This listing includes two additional welds which were not contained in the original response, one of which is the corresponding weld on loop B which had indications on loop A, and the other because its location in a stagnant area makes it equivalent to an end cap.

RMr. O'Reilly. February 7, 1983 In addition to the above changes, the applicable inspection procedure has been revised. The revised procedure for manual inspections, Southwest Research
' Institute Procedure 600-31, Revision 9, Deviation 3, requires the recording of ultrasonic reflectors producing a response greater than 50 percent of the reference level. All-reflectors.(regardless of signal amplitude)-not readily attributable to geometry by the examiner shall be recorded and investigated by a Level _III examiner to the extent necessary. Automated inspecticns being performed ~ to fulfill NUREG-0313, Revision 1,.will be performed using Southwest Research Institute Procedure 700-5, Revision 9, Deviation 4.
This procedure employs the same scanning techniques as the manual procedure and records any reflectors not readily attributable to geometry.
We understand that Revision 2 of'the IE Bulletin 82-03 is about to be issued.
Any further changes necessitated by that revision.will be addressed in future correspondence.
Very truly yours,
