Reference:

1)

J. Bauer letter to W. Russell dated July 22,1994, transmitting update on GL 92-01 2)

R R. Assa letter to D. L. Farrar dated June 24,1994, requesting verification of data pertaining to GL 92-01,

" Reactor Vessel Structural Integrity

Dear Mr. Russell:

By letter dated July 2,1992 and November 19,1993, Commonwealth Edison Company (Com Ed) provided its response to GL 92-01, Revision 1. In the referenced letter 2, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Staff requested the Comed verify the previously supplied information, as this data will be entered into a Reactor Vessel Integrity Database.

In reference 1, Comed requested that the Braidwood data verification / update be delayed until August 8,1994, to allow for a complete and accurate verification of the subject data.

The attachment includes Braidwood's response to the reference 2 correspondence. In the summary tables, the changes from the data tr asmitted in reference 2 are clearly indicated.

Please address any comments or questions regarding this matter to this office.

PRESSURIZED THERMAL SHOCK AND USE TABLES FOR ALL PWR PLANTS HOMENCLATURE Pressurized Thermal Shock Table Column 1:

Beltline material location identification.

Column 2:

Beltline material heat number; some welds that a single-wire or tandem-wire process has been reported, (s) indicates single wire was used in the SAW process, (T) indicates i

tandem wire was used in the SAW process.

1 Column 3:

End-of-life (EOL) neutron fluence at vessel inner wall; cited directly from inner diameter (ID) value reported in the latest submittal (GL 92-01, PTS, or P/T limits submittals).

Column 4:

Unirradiated reference temperature.

Column 5:

Method of determining unirradiated reference temperature (IRT).

Plant-Soecific This indicates that the IRT was determined from tests on material removed from the same heat of the beltline material.

Generic This indicates that the unirradiated reference temperature was determined from the mean value of tests on material of similar types.

Column 6:

Chemistry factor for irradiated reference temperature evaluation.

Column 7:

Method of determining chemistry factor.

RG1.99 Table 1 or 2 This indicates that the chemistry factor was determined from the chemistry factor tables in Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2.

Calculated This indicates that the chemistry factor was determined from surveillance data via procedures described in Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2.

Column 8:

Copper content; cited directly from licensee value except when more than one value was reported.

(Staff used the average value in the latter case.)

Column 9:

Nickel content; cited directly from licensee value except when more than one value was reported.

(Staff used the average value in the latter case.)

Column 3:

Material type; plate types include A 533B-1, A 302B, A 302B Mod.; forging types include A 508-2 and A508-3; weld types include SAW welds using Linde 80, 0091, 124, 1092, ARCOS-B5 flux, Rotterdam welds using Grau Lo, SMIT 89, LW 320, and SAF 89 flux, and SMAW welds using no flux.

Column 4:

EOL upper-shelf energy (USE) at T/4; calculated by using the EOL fluence and either the copper value or the surveillance data.

(Both methods are described in Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2.)

Column 5:

EOL neutron fluence at T/4 from vessel inner wall; cited directly from T/4 value or calculated by using Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, neutron fluence attenuation methodology from the ID value reported in the latest submittal (GL 92-01, PTS, or P/T limits submittals).
