Paragraph IWA-2232 to the Summer 1976 Addenda which has not 17 been referenced in 10CFR50.55a(b). Note that 18

' 10CFR50.55a(b) states that when applying the 1974 ASME 18 j Section XI Code Edition, only the Addenda through Summer 19 1975 may be used.

If Appendix III is used it must be used 20 l in conjunction with Summer 1978 Addenda or later Addenda as 21 i

1 referenced by 10CFR50.55a(b).

Plant specific approval has 22 been granted to use Appendix III of the Winter 1975 Addenda 23 I if the Applicant demonstrates that the provisions used are 23 equivalent or superior to the requirements of referenced 24

- editions of Section XI Code. 24 l
11. In later editions of the ASME. Code, Appendix III of 26 Section XI, is specified for ferritic piping welds. If 28 this requirement is not applicable (for example, for 28 austenitic piping welds), ultrasonic examination is 29 required to be conducted in accordance with the applicable 29 requirements of Article 5 of Section V, as amended by 30 l IWA-2232.

l Discuss the criteria for applying Article 5 of 31 Section V, as amended by IWA-2232. Provide a technical 32 justification for any alternatives used such asSection XI, 32 Appendix III, Supplement 7, for austenitic piping welds and 33 discuss the following: 33 A. All modifications permitted by Supplement 7. 35 B. Methods of ensuring adequate examination sensitivity 37 over the required examination volume. 38 C. Methods of qualifying the procedure for examination 40 through the weld (if complete examination is to be 41 l

considered for examinations conducted with only one 42 side access).

42 III. When using Appendix III of Section XI for preservice or 44 inservice examination of either ferritic or austenitic 45 piping welds the following should be incorporated: 45 A. Any crack-like indication, 20% of DAC or greater, 47 1 discovered during examination of piping welds or 48 adjacent base metal materials should be recorded and 49 '

investigated by a Level II or Level III examiner to 49 the extent necessary to determine the shape, identify, 50 and location of the reflector.

OUESTION 250.4 11 l 1. Clarify the discrepancy between Limerick FSAR Section 3.6.2.6 13 l which states that " guard pipe assemblies are not used in this 14 plant" and Section 6.6.8 Augmented Inservice Inspection to 15 l Protect Against Postulated Piping Failures, paragraph (c) 16 which states " Inspection ports are provided in guard pipes to 17 permit examination of circumferential pipe welds." 17 1

i High energy lines within the " break exclusion" of the 19

containment penetration area, whether encased in guard pipes 20 l or not, must receive augmented preservice/ inservice 21 examination regardless of the requirements of Section XI of 22 the ASME Code as discussed in SRP 3.6.1 and 3.6.2. However, 23 high energy lines meeting the " modified break exclusion 23 region" criteria need not be subjected to augmented 24 l preservice/ inservice examination. The " modified break 25 l exclusion region" criteria may be applied in those special 26 l cases in which guard pipes are necessary, and it has been 26 demonstrated to the satisfaction of the NRC that access to 27 l perform an examination is extremely difficult to achieve. In 29 l such areas the examination requirements may be eliminated 29 l provided the guard pipe is designed for the full dynamic 30 l

effects of a longitudinal or circumferential break of the 31 enclosed process pipe including jet impingement, pipe whip 31 impact and environmental effects. 32 r If the high energy fluid system piping does not meet the 34

  • modified break exclusion region" criteria, submit the 35 required augmented preservice/ inservice examination program 35 for this piping. 35
2. Confirm that high energy fluid system piping between 37 containment isolation valves will receive an augmented 38 examination as follows: 38 A. Protective measures, structures, and guard pipes should 40 not prevent the access required to conduct the inservice- 41 examination specified in the ASME Code,Section XI. 42 i

B. For those portions of high energy fluid system piping 44 l between containment isolation valves, the extent of 45 i inservice examination completed during each inspection 46 interval (ASME Code Section XI) should provide 100% 47 volumetric examination of circumferential and 47 l

longitudinal pipe welds within the boundary of these 48 portions of piping. 48 l C. For those portions of high energy fluid system piping 50 l

enclosed in guard pipes, inspection ports should be 51 provided in the guard pipes to permit the required 52 250.4-1 Rev. 21, 06/83 3

LGS FSAR DRA.V ' 8 53 examination of circumferential pipe welds. Inspection 53

' ports should not be located in the portion of the guard 54 pipe passing through the annulus of dual. barrier 54 containment structures.

56 D. For those items requiring ISI, a baseline or preservice 57 examination for establishing the integrity of the 58 original condition is also required by the ASME Code.

60

3. Confirm that the augmented examination for high energy system 61 piping is maintained throughout the entire piping system up 62 to the outboard restraint. If the restraint is located at 63 teh isolation valve, a classification change at the valve 63 interface is acceptable.

65

4. Confirm that welds between outboard containment isolation 66 valves and piping restraints are included in the PSI and ISI 66 program plan required.

14 15 Should certain Code Section XI requirements be determined to be 16 impractical in the course of inspecting the components, PECo will 17 submit a request for relief from the requirements to the NRC in 17 accordance with the provisions of 10CFR50.55a(g)(5)."

Indicate the anticipated date for submittal of this information 19 and all requests for relief from impractical examinations. The 21 I

Preservice Inspection Program should include the following 21 21 information:

For ASME Code Class 1 and 2 components, provide a table 23 l A.

similar to IWB-2600 and IWC-2600 confirming that either the - 24 entire Section XI preservice examination was performed on the 25 component or relief is requested with a technical 26 26 justification supporting the request.

B. Where relief is requested for pressure retaining welds in the 28 reactor vessel, identify the specific welds that did not 29 30 receive a 100% preservice ultrasonic examination and estimate the extent of, the examination that was performed. 30 C. Where relief is requested for piping system welds 32 (Examination Category B-J, C-F, and C-G), provide a list of 33 the specific welds that did not receive a completion 33 Section XI preservice examination including drawing or 34 l isometric identification number, system, weld number, and 35 physical configuration; e.g., pipe-to-nozzle weld, etc. 36 Estimate the extent of the preservice examination that was 37 performed. Wnen the volumetric examination was perofrmed 38 from one side of the weld, discuss whether the entire weld 39 39 volume and the heat affected zone (HAZ) and base metal on the 41 far side of the weld were examined. State the primary reason 42 that a specific examination is impractical; e.g., support or 42 component restricts access, fitting prevents adequate 43 ultrasonic coupling on one side, component-to-component weld prevents ultiasonic examination, etc. Indicate any 45 alternative or supplemental examinations performed and 45 46 method (s) of fabrication examination.
