Alabama Power Company indicated that a leak-before-break (LBB) analysis vould be performed on Unit 1 and Unit 2 to allow the temoval of the pipe whip restraints.
General Design Criterion 4 allows plants to eliminate the dynamic effects of the rupture of high energy lines from the plant design basis when analyses reviewed and approved by the Commission demonstrate that the probability of fluid system piping rupture is extremely lov.
Alabama Power Company herewith submits for NRC review and approval a detailed LBB analysis.
It is Alabama Power Company's Litent to use this NRC approved
~
LBB analysis to eliminate the dynamic efferts of pipe ruptuce in the pressurizer surge lines from the design basi; of Parley Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2.
Alabama Power Company currently plata on re w ing the pipe thip restraints on both units within two refueling outages following NRC approval of the LBB analysis.
Until the modifications to the restraints are performed, Alabama Power Company has made procedural changes on Unit 2 to limit the delta T in the surge line to less than 310*F vhich vill keep the pipe stress within code allowable as described in Alabama Power Company's response to NRC Bulletin No. 88-11.
The attachment contains:
- 1. VCAP-12835 - Technical justification for eliminating pressurizer surge line rupture from the structural design basis for Parley Units 1 and 2 (Proprietary).
- 2. VCAP-12834 - Technical justification for eliminating pressurizer surge line rupture from the structural design basis for Farley Units 1 and 2 (Non-Proprietary).
Also enclosed are a Vestinghouse authorization letter, CAV-91-152, accompanying affidavit, Proprietary Information Notice, and Copyright Notice.
