Dear Mr. Denton:

This letter is in response to your July 27, 1983 letter (Reference

1) which requested additional information on the Intergranular Stress Corrosion Cracking (IGSCC) issue for the Shoreham Nuclear Power Station. The IGSCC issue has been addressed during the gD 8308260132 830823 I I.1 PDR ADOCK 05000322 i A PDR l

, k: a,

, e August 23, 1983 SNRC-955 Page 2 Shoreham licensing process resulting in the specific documentation cited above (as References 2 through 5).

The following addresses the specific questions raised in the referenced NRC letter:

Item 1 - MATERIALS AND SPECIAL FABRICATION METHODS Since 1975, LILCO has instituted many actions to limit the potential for IGSCC at Shoreham. Steps were taken in four main areas: welding controls, material modifications, solution heat treatment of certain shop welds, and Induction Heating Stress Improvement. These steps can be summarized as follows:

A. Welding Controls

i. Shoreham implemented welding procedures using lower heat inputs to minimize sensitization which reduces the potential for stress corrosion cracking.

ii. Grinding control was instituted to mininize the formation of tensile residual stresses on pipe inside diameter surfaces.

B. Material Modifications !

i. Core spray lines and safe-end material have been changed to low alloy steel which is not susceptible to IGSCC.

ii. The recirculation system discharge bypass lines were eliminated and existing weldolets were capped with 304L weld inlays ahich are not susceptible to IGSCC.

C. Solution Heat Treatment (SHT)

i. All riser sections, including the suction and discharge risers, were solution heat-treated to eliminate the potential for stress corrosion cracking in shop welds.

D. Induction Heating Stress Improvement (IHSI)

1. All remaining accessible and/or technically feasible welds were treated by Induction Heating Stress Improvement Process.

1/ Residual Heat Removal systems and Reactor Water Cleanup systems were originally designed using low alloy steel in lieu of 304SS, thus reducing the potential for IGSCC.

"s ..

August 23, 1983

. SNRC-955 Page 3 The Shoreham recirculation system contains 120 type 304 stainless steel welds of interest. This includes nine (9) welds that are technically part of RHR and RWCU systems, but which are associated with tie-in points to the recirculation system. Of the one hundred twenty (120) welds, only twenty-two (22) welds have not received the IHSI or SHT post-weld treatment. These welds were not treated because either the weld geometry and/or serious physical access problems precluded the application of IHSI. These twenty-two (22) welds have been classified " service sensitive" and will receive augmented ISI per the requirements of NUREG-0313.

For the twenty-two (22) non-conforming welds, LILCO will continue to actively monitor potential remedies that, in the future, may be effective counter-measures to IGSCC. Potential applications under study include last pass heat sink welding and hydrogen water chemistry.

Research programs regarding these possible applications are in progress and LILCO will make Shoreham-specific evaluations upon completion of the research efforts.

LILCO has been, and will continue to be, very active in the BWR Materials Owners Group, the EPRI Nuclear Systems Task Fprce, and the EPRI Utility Plant Materials Subcommittee.

In the area of UT examination, LILCO also continues to support the BWR Owners Group and EPRI effort to develop improved field techniques for IGSCC detection. LILCO has received a sample of the cracked piping from the Nine Mile Point Station which is presently in storage at Brookhaven National Laboratory. This sample will be utilized, as appropriate, in future UT applications at Shoreham.

Item 2 - JUSTIFICATION FOR OPERATION As stated in Item 1, all feasible corrective actions have been taken to minimize the potential for stress corrosion cracking in the twenty-two (22) non-conforming welds. In addition (see Item 4),

LILCO is committed to a diligent water chemistry program that will minimize the potential for IGSCC.

The initiation of the IGSCC phenomenon is generally known to require many years of plant operation, even under adverse stress and environ-mental conditions. This will allow time for additional corrective actions to be implemented at a later date as the technology for these actions is further developed. In addition, since the number of welds susceptible to this phenomenon at Shoreham is small, the likelihood of these welds cracking, even without additional corrective actions, is very remote.

. 6 August 23, 1983 SNRC-955 Page 4 Item 3 - PRESERVICE INSPECTION During preserv_ce inspections of. service-sensitive configurations at the Shoreham Nuclear Power Station, ultrasonic examinations were performed utilizing NES procedure 80A0481. This procedure requires 0 degree and 45 degree examination angles for a minimum coverage of one pipe thickness (T) on each side of the weld.

Scanning speeds were 6"/sec. Calibration was achieved utilizing holes to obtain the sensitivity levels (lh T if T< 1" or 3/4T if T21") . Recording levels for all indications, at reference sensi-tivity were 2t 50% of DAC. All evaluations of indications, if any, were performed in accordance with Section XI, IS-300, 1971 Edition.

Item 4 - WATER CHEMISTRY CONTROL PROGRAM The Shoreham Water Chemistry Control Program has been formulated to minimize the potential for IGSCC. Specifically, the program will:

Maintain the reactor water conductivity and chloride level well below the Technical Specification limits Control the level of dissolved oxygen in the reactor feedwater within the fuel warranty limits of 20 to 200 parts per billion Maintain the pH as close as possible to neutral and within the range of 5.6 to 8.6 during power operation as specified in Table 3.4.4-1 of the Technical Specifications.

The desired conductivity and chloride ranges can vary according to the plant operating mode (i.e. startup, normal operation). These ranges are specified in Station Procedure 74.010.02, " Chemical Surveillance Schedule" which is available for on-site review by the NRC Resident Inspector.

In addition, as previously stated, LILCO will evaluate the results of the ongoing hydrogen water chemistry experiment at Dresden, to determine the potential for further minimizing IGSCC at Shoreham.

10. Q: Does Shoreham meet all Part.II guidelines?

A: No, certain materials do not meet Part II guide-lines. The guidelines provide, however, for exemp-tion from Part II compliance when it would result in " undue hardship." Shoreham is exempt because it was well under construction when NUREG-0313, Revision 1 was published in 1979. Shoreham must therefore comply with Part III.

11. Q: What are the Part III requirements?

A: These requirements are for augmented leak detection and inspection programs that go beyond those speci-fied in 10 CFR 50.55a(g) and in NRC Standard Technical Specifications. The degree of augmenta-tion depends upon whether the lines are

" service-sensitive" or not. Service-sensitive lines are those lines having a history cf cracking, and they are inspected more frequently than non-service-sensitive lines.

12. Q: Does Shoreham meet all the requirements of Part III?

A: Yes. All nonconforming welds will be inspected according to Part III requirements. LILCO has de-termined that presently it has no " service-sensitive" lines.

?

N ~ J

, 6-

13. Q Why did LILCO reach that determination?

A. Part III(B) identifies potential " service-sensitive" lines. Only two potential service-sensitive lines exist at Shoreham: the recircula-tion riser lines and the recirculation inlet-nozzle to thermal-sleeve welds. LILCO solution heat-treated the sections of the recirculation risers that had evidenced cracking in nuclear power plants in Japan. This treatment removes IGSCC as a con-cern. No other in-service evidence of cracking exists on these risers. For the recirculation inlet-nozzle to thermal .=leeve welds, LILCO's design is markedly different from the Duane Arnold design that exhibited cra'cking. Designs similar to Shoreham (e.g., Fitzpatrick) have been inspected and no evidence of cracking has been detected.

Accordingly, no service-sensitive lines exist at Shoreham.

{ 14. Q: Has the NRC accepted LILCO's position regarding l NUREG-0313, Revision 1 compliance?

A: Yes. Initially, in Open Item 18 of the Safety Evaluation Report (SER), the NRC reserved judgment

, on whether Shoreham met NOREG-0313 requirements.

y In LILCO's response, SNRC-566 (May 15, 1981), the o nonconforming items ware identified and the

augmented in-service inspection program was established according to Part III guidelines. In response to SNRC-566, Open Item 18 was resolved.

15. Q: Let's move on to SOC Contention 19(d)(2). What is the issue?

A. SOC first contends that the augmented in-service inspection program, discussed earlier, is insuffi-cient and, second, disagrees.with the classifica-tion of the recirculation riser lines and inlet lines at the safe-ends as non-service-sensitive.

16. Q: What is the particular issue with regard to the inspection program?

A: SOC contends that the inspection program is insufficient because the inspection of some items have been conditioned "to the extent practicable."

SOC further contends that LILCO has failed to iden-tify the number and the location of the items and

<a the justification for the limited inspection of those items.

il

17. Q: Is the inspection program adequate?

A: Yes. The inservice inspection program for Shoreham

8 ,

j meets the ASME Code and requires that all Class I welds be inspected. NUREG-0313 increases the fre-quency of inspections. All welds will receive i

either a full, or in a very small number of cases, a partial inspection. A pr'ogram is underway to remove where practicable interferences that pre-clude complete inspection. When this program is complete, welds receiving partial inspections will be identified.

-18 . Q: You mentioned earlier.that SOC objects to the c'las- -

sification of recirculation riser lines and inlet lines at the safe-end as being non-l service-sensitive, and claims that Shoreham, there-fore, does not meet NUREG-0313. Is SOC correct in that regard?

A: No. First, as stated earlier, the recirculation riser lines and recirculation inlet lines at the safe-ends have been demonstrated not to be service-sensitive lines.

Second, solution heat-treating of all of the riser sections will eliminate IGSCC as a concern, except i

6 for the field welds at header and inlet nozzles.

The NUREG recognizes the efficacy of this process

i at reducing IGSCC. ,
19. Q: Let's move on to the third part of the Contention.

What is the issue involved with SOC 19(d)(3)?

A: The Part III guidelines discussed above provide i

, 9

~

that when there is no conformance with Part II guidelines, there must be an enhanced leak detec-tion program. SOC contends that the Shoreham pro-gram is inadequate.

20. Q: Is the leak detection program adequate?

A: Yes. The primary containment leakage detection and collection systems comply fully with Regulatory i

Guide 1.45, " Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary Leakage Detection Systems." NUREG-0313, Revision 1 I

l states that such systems are adequate. See FSAR, Appendix 3B 1.45. The systems will detect uniden-tified leakage to the primary containment and will provide acceptable detect. ion capability for reactor coolant pressure boundary leakage.

21. Q: How effective is the design at detecting leakage?

A: Very effective. There are no design structures i

within the tywell that act as reservoirs which

!I must be filled before flow to the floor drain

~l occurs. The floor drain system collects leakage utilizing flush-mounted deck drains. Thus, the

, possibility of temporary collection prior to li leakage reaching the sumps is minimized.

22. Q: Are you familiar with Suffolk County Contention 24(b)?

j I

.i A: Yes. ~

23. Q: What is the thrust of the contention?

A: Suffolk County contends that the recommendation made in NUREG-0619 "BWR Feedwater No =le and Control Rod Drive Return Line Nozzle Cracking" (April 1980), have not been, implemented because a

. low-flow controller to control feedwater flow h.as not been installed.

24. Q. What is the function of the low-flow feedwater con-trol system?

A. Its function, along with certain operating pro-cedures, is to minimite thermal fatigue of the feedwater nostle. It further ensures that crack growth, if cracking occurs, would be minimited.

25. Q: Has Shoreham implemented the guidelines of NUREG-0619?

-i t A: Yes. Shoreham has installed a low-flow feedwater controller and has taken several other steps recom-mended by the NUREG. Compliance with NUREG-0619 was Open Item 13 in the SSR. LILCO's response was presented in SNRC-566, and Open Item 13 was re-solved.

1.

,. -11

26. Q: Will the low-flow feedwater controller installed at Shoreham meet NUREG-0619 requirements?

A: Yes. Shoreham's low-flow feedwater control system consists of two low-flow control valves in parallel with split-range control. The split-range control enables control within the 0.5% to 10% rated flow specified in the NUREG.

27. Q: How will LILCO verify that the Shoreham low-flow

, feedwater control design will comply with the spec-ifications of NUREG-0619?

l A: Low-flow feedwater controller operation will be verified by tests which monitor feedwater nozzle fluid temperatures during start-up, shutdewn and hot standby. The results of this test will be used to generate a crack growth analysis using the same methodology as that contained in NEDE-21821-A. Low-flow feedwater control system design modifications and/or system operating procedures modifications

, will be made as necessary.

t

.: 28. Q. Will you summarize your position regarding cracking of materials at Shoreham?

A: Shoreham has also implemented several steps to min-I imize the potential for stress corrosion cracking of materials including: implementation of welding i

controls, modification of materials and solution heat treatment of materials. Shoreham has followed the guidelines established in NUREG-0313, Revision I and to the extent it cannot make material modifi-cations, will follow the augmented inspection and leak detection guidelines. The low-flow feedwater controller and other recommendations of NUREG-0619 have been implemented. Cracking of materials at Shoreham should not be a problem.

NUREG-0313, Revision 1, (hereinafter, "NUREG-0313") specifies that such systems should either be con-structed of materials resistant'to ICSCC or that the heat affected ' zones of the welds or of other sensitized areas ,should be subjected to post-weld treatment protection by the use of i solution hbat treatment ("SHT") or corrosion resistant cladding I

(." CRC"). Under NUREG-0313 standards the 304 material in use on h .

" conforming" material and thus is classified as "non-conforming" in the non-treated condition. NUREG-0313 ad-ditionally discusses the post-weld treatment process of induc-tion heat stress improvement ("IHSI") but does not accept it on a generic basis and specifies that IHSI will be assessed on a case-by-case basis if proposed by a licensee. Nevertheless, the C'ounty recommended that LILCO perform such treatment, and LILCO, unknown to SC, had in fact planned to do so. LILCO does

, not agree that NUREG-0313 requires po.st-weld heat treatment.

. The Parties agre.e that NUREG-0313 requires augmented In-service Inspection (ISI) for welds classified as "non-conforming."

In SC's and SOC's opinion, but not LILCO's, the Shoreham recirculation system as presently constructed does no't fully comply with the NUREG-0313 guidelines, cnd the potential for, failures due to IGSCC is thus grc~ater than desirable. Such failures could result in an increased risk of LOCAs and the re- .

. pair of such. failures could cause increased occupational ra.dia-tion exposure of the plant stafd and contract personnel. .

LILCO has subjected all possible and applicable recircula-tien system welds to the post-weld process of IHSI, and has .

notified the NRC of the -action.

The NRC is evaluating qualifi-cationoftheIhSIprocessasaconformingpiecessunder'

~

. NUREG-0313 for the Susquehanna p.1 ant.

LILCObekievesthatIHSI will be generically approved as a result of th'is review. If so, those portiony of the Shoreham recirculation system that

onforming mate, rial per NUREG-0313. If the NRC does not approve IRSI, the IHSI welds will continue to be classified as "non-donforming " .

LILCO has' additionally provided to SC and SOC consultants:

(1) An 8-page listing of all recirculation sys-tem welds, showing the IHSI applicability of ,,

each; (2) Isometric sketches of the system showing weld locations; and. ,

(3) A list of PSI Class 1 Relief Requests which identifies 10 recirculation and RER system welds for which full PSI and ISI. capability does not presently exist due to geometry or

', access problems (see.SNRC-759, Attachment 1 .

hereto). .

i ,

SC and SOC consultants have. reviewed this documentation, ,

have discussed the matter with LILCO personnel, and have per-sonally viewed the location and configuration at the facility of typical and significant welds. SC and SOC consultants and l

L

'LILCO have' agreed on the following facts:

(1)'The Shoreham rdeirculation system contains

  • l

. . 120 SS 304 welds of interest. This includes

9. welds that are technically a part of the RHR or RWCU systems but which are tied into .

the recirculation system.

. . g O

e

, - , . . - - . . - , - , e--

.s.

-.. (2) Of the 120 welds, 24 have already received SHT. SC and SOC agree that these welds are acceptable.

, (3) LILCO has treated 74 of the welds with IHSI, i

f and SC and SOC agree that these welds are acceptable.

(4) A total of 22 welds will not receive the I post-weld treatment that SC and SOC believe

.e- is.needed(includedinbhe22weldsare3 RHR sys' tem welds). The reasons for not treating these welds ar'e piping configura-tion, weld geometry and/or lack of physical ,

access for IHSI equipment. SC and SOC con-sultants have reviewed the LILCO data and l agree that IHSI ;is not practical on these

' joints. SC, SOC and LILCO further agree that internal application of CRC is not practical for these joints and that removal of the radial beams to improve the access is l . not a practical solution. .

s .

Accordingly, in SC.s and SOC _'s view, but not LILCO's, 3

~

l there appear to be 22 welds that will.not fully comply with ,

f 3

.' NUREG-0313. Nevertheless, LILCO. agrees to install an augmented 4

leak detection system in accordance with terms identified below j- *

.for welds meeting the criteria discussed below".

l1 .' -

!1 ,

\

... Two* levels of crack detection for welds already exist ,

~

at Shoreh'am. The first level involves the Drywell Leak DetectionSyst'emsdescribekinSection5.2.7oftheFSAR. The second level involves augmented inservice inspection to be coni ducted in accordance with NUREG-0313 and committed to by LILCO' i

in its acceptance. of NUREG-0313 guidance (see SNRC-566). SC and SOC have expressed the view that a third level of detection may be appropriate for certain "high risk" welds, that is, those welds from among the 22 welds described above, with the

. highest potential for un~ detectable cracking.

Three factors should be considered in determining "high' risk" welds. ' The first consideration should be whether the weld has received any post-weld treatment.

The second consideration is the stress level in the weld..

Research indicates that for cracking to be initiated in,the BWR .

environment, a weld must be expos,ed to a tensile stress above ,

the yield stress. GE has developed a formula called the Stress l Rule Index (SRI) which evaluates'the weld for this condition.

~

L The formula predicts the potential for initiation of cracking

'i f the SRT' exceeds 1.0. Field experience to date has shown this rule to be conservative for the 140 crackirg incidents ,

l where the SRI has been calculated'(out of a population of'292 known cracking incidents).

~

In all cases evaluated by GE, the

/ -

oy $ YeaT{h r.

SRI was gr;:tn ':._.. 1.2 for welds that actually cracked in ep-y.

. .erating plants. It is LILCO's position that welds having a SRI

-' jis 4 less than 1.2 5- and' certainly a SRI less than 1.0 -- lack a -

l l

m. .*,A . . E ~ * = , es houde em -. m e ^

~

technical basis for being considered "high risk." SC and Soc, however,'do not agree with this proposition because of the faEt that the SRIs have not been quantified for all cracking inci-dents and because there is a degree of uncertainty in the SRI quantification.

The third important variab'le for "high risk" categori-zation is inspectability of the weld. Some of the 22 welds are not now totally inspectable (See. Attachment 1). ,

LILCO proposes to do tho'following about a third level of leak detection for "high risk" welds at Shoreham:

(1) LILCO will systematically identify "high risk" .

welds, which would be those that meet the following criteria:

(a) no post-weld treatment; (b) a SRI greater than 1.0, which is to be veri-fied by an inde' pendent third party analysis; and' ,

~

'(c) less than 90% inspectability.

In applying these "high risk" criteria, the following pro-cedures will be,used:

'(a) The, weld SRIs shall be initially calculated for l .

l ,

~

.LILCO by GE,in acccrdance with GE's SRI methodology._

~

- Included in the quantification sh,all be identification of the error bands. LILCO will'also make arrangements for a l ,

ll . third party independently to quantify the SRIs and the I ~

error bands..' The third party shall be either Sol. Levy

- Associates or' Failure Analysis Associates, or shall be

,i .

g

- -- ,s. - _ e ._.--m

~

. . . sele:ted from a list of potential, candidates mutually agrsed upon by LILCO and SC and SOC. LILCO shall make' .

fully available to SC and SOC all the calculati'ons, methods, assumptions, and results. If requested by SC or7 SOC, appropriate LILCO and/or GE and third party represen2 tatives will.be~available to discuss these results with SC and SOC consultants. The SRI acceptance criteria will re-quire that the welds' SRI must be shown to be 1 css than l.0 ass,uming the most conservative use of the error bands. ,

All obligations of-LILCO set forth in this paragraph will be completed prior to March 1, 1983 or two months after commenc'e' ment of fuel load, whichever is later. In no event will they be completed later than June 1, 1983.

(b) The 90% inspectabilit,y will be judged based upon the -PSI or the ISI completed results. This means that the

,. percentages currently achieved in the PSI program will govern the "high risk" classification until such time as a different percentage is determined to be actually achieved in the ISI program approved in the future.

12) LILCO will perform an engineering review of the Techmark'/Nutec Leak Detsetion Sys, tem. Although,-the system ,

appears promising, ,it has not yet' been tested for reliability in a BWR c,ontainment. An earlier hardwired, version of the sys.-

tem has been installed in the secondary containment at Nor.th

. Anna Units 1 and 2, and is being installed at Fermi Unit 2.

l l

, 10

, The Techmark System is currently being evaluated under an EPRI-sponsored effort, of which Phase One has already been com-pleted. The EPRI con' tractor for the program is Acton Environmental Testing Corporation (AETC) of Acton, Massachusetts. Phase One of the program developed an on-line functional test of the system. This test was conducted on MarcW 1, 1982. Phase Two of the program will proceed with environmental qualification of the system in accordance with c 'IEEE-323. This test -is sched.uled for, the fall of 1982. .

After

, results of these.two phases are completed, EPRI will evaluate what additional testing (e.g., in situ) may be required. .

LINCO proposes to monitor the EPRI program and use its results to perform a shoreham-specific evaluation as to whether the Techmark System's reliability is such that it could meaningfully augment the two existing levels of Icak detection at Shoreham.

. The evaluation will consider: (a) environmental

. qualification -(limited to early warning system, normal oper-j ating environment); (b) reliability of the system to detect -

pipe leakage only; (c) electrical system reliability to avoid spurious alarms,; and (d) the design and installation of a ' -

Shoreham-specific system. The EP.RI program shculd provide'suf-ficient information.to address all the.above points except (d);

a if the program does not provide'such'information,. LILCO will l .

pursue other means of obtaining these data. LILCO will com-( plete the Shoreham-specific study in time to permit installa-tion of the system; if appropriate, at the first refueling l

'... outage. LILCO wi11 promptly provide'SC and Soc with the I

results 6f the EPRI study and the Shoreham-specific study ref-erence.d in'this p'aragraph. LILCO will also promptly advise SC of its conclusions regarding " qualification" .of the system for'>

power reactor application. If, in LILCO's view, the system is' not adequate, LILC,0 will advise SC.and SOC of the technical bas $s for this position and of additional efforts needed or underway to suitably improve the system for subsequent use at Shoreham. -

(3) If the results of_the investigation in (2) above

? ,

t indicate that the Techmark System is " qualified," LILCO will install the Techmark System on all welds cstablished as "high risk" in accordance with (1). If not initially " qualified" but if additional efforts subsequently result in " qualification".of the system, LILCO will install' the system on the "high risk" weld's at t'he next regularly scheduled refueling outage. This ,

! system, if installed, will be used as additional operator information, not as.a Limiting Co'ndition for Operation in the

. Technical. Specifications.

Item 3. ISI Accessibility In i.ts pre-filed testimony SC identified a5 a second con-

'~

cern the fact that*all welds are not fully accessible for ISI.

Th1,s concern is also expressed in SOC Contentions 19(d).

The t

't

' welds for which this is true have been discussed in Item 2-lj above. LILCO has identified 10 recirculation and RHR welds of '

. . . , concern (see Attachme;1t 1). None of the 10 currently meet,the 90% criteria in the PSI program, but LILCO believes that six of the 10 will be able to meet the 90% ISI inspectability criter-ion. The remaining four are currently projected to be 21%,

64%, 63% and 65% inspectable for the ISI program.

LILCO has committed to attempt prior to fuel load to im-prove the inspectability of the ten welds referred to in the

. .preceding paragraph by using new. calibration standards where

, , ' applicable and practicable. .SC nnd SOC accept this commitment to resolve the l.SI accessibility concern expressed in.SC Contention 24 and SOC Contentions 19(d) ' subject to the imple- ,

mentation of the augmented leak detection commitment in Item 2.

... Item 4. Pipe Replacement ,

SC identified as a concern the potential problem of large scale.repl'acement of failed SS 304 pipe after operation, which the County believes may create significant radiation levels.

SC recommended that a contingency plan be developed by LILCO to prepare for such eventualities.

LILCO has provided the following data to SC fo'r review:

s.

(1) A description of the Pooled Inventory Management (PIM) program presently being implemented by GE; (2) LILCO's PIM notes, indicating that LILCO e cts piping to be considered in PIM; exp ~

(3) A discussion of the BWR Owners' Group Remedy

  • Development Center es,tablished at Charlotte, North Carolina. Piping replacement tools and methods are being developed at this fa-cility.

In addition, LILCO and NC consultants have discussed the major piping replacement program currently underway at the

. Nine Mile. Point, Unit 1 plant. It is anticipated that this ex-perien'ce will provide viluable experience'and input for possi- ~

.. has provided the following information to SC an'd SOC consul-tants:

- (1) A su dary report by.GE, dated November 26, 1975, cbvering delta ferrite measurements of

'LILCO at Shoreham on weld srmples as speci-fied by NRC's MTEB S-1. Results reported showed that for the G-41 and P-21 systems, the 43 welds tested were found acceptable.

Based on review of the above information, SC and SOC are satis ~fied that this concern has been resolved.

Item 6. Weld Sensitization Test's SC and SOC identified th'e desirability of utilizing the ,

electrochemical'potentiokinetic reactivation method ("EPR") as a check to ensure that weld sensitization was not excessive. -

Subsequent to the filing of testimony on'SC Contention 24/ SOC -

Cont'entions 19(c) and 19(d), LILCO.has identified the locations of the non post-weld treated joints and has demonstrated to SC and SOC consultants' satisfaction that EPR is not a practical method for the welds in question' SC and SOC therefore agree

- that this concern is resolved.

Item 7. Cobalt and Carbon Levels i

SC and SOC. identified a need for LILCO to verify the suit-l ~

i ability'of carbon and c6balt levels in the RCPB materials and -

..' thus to' demonstrate minimization 'of sensitization and of-radia-l . tion level buildup. Subsequent to the filing of testimony on i  : .

SC Contention 24/ SOC Contentions 19(c) and (d), LILCO has docu~-
