Dear Mr. O'Reilly:

VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY NORTH ANNA POWER STATION UNIT NO. 2 RESPONSE TO ITEM 4 0F IEB 82-02 Enclosed is the Virginia Electric and Power Company response to Item 4 of IE Bulletin No. 82-02 (Degradation of Threaded Fasteners in the Reactor Coolant Pressure' Boundary of PWR Plants) for North Anna Unit No. 2 Very truly yours, W4 W.

O RESPONSE TO ITEM 4 0F IEB 82-02:

DEGRADATION OF THREADED FASTENERS IN THE REACTOR COOLANT h

PRESSURE BOUNDARIES OF PWR PLANTS

[

The following information is being submitted as required by Action Item 4 of IEB 82-02 for North Anna Unit 2.

4a.

Action Item I has.been completed. Procedures have been developed

.{

and implemented to incorporate the maintenance training and work practices referenced in Action Item 1.

Further maintenance training, general review of the proper work practices to be utilized with threaded fasteners, is pending. Also completed are the quality assurance measures to be utilized for the proper selection, pro-curement and application of fastener lubricants.

4b.

For Action Item 2 of IEB 82-02 all threaded fasteners identified in i

the response to Action Item 3 of IEB 82-02 were inspected - at least visually. Where it was necessary to remove threaded

{

fasteners for maintenance the fasteners were either reinspected as I

required prior to reuse or replaced.

See Supplement 1 for the identification of the fasteners inspected.

4c.

The following (Supplement 2) are the results of the inspections performed on the items referred to in Supplement 1.

The total staff time spent to prepare a written response for Item 4 was 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br />.

The radiation exposure attributed to the initial and subsequent visual inspection was 420 mR excluding NDT inspections.

Each valve visually inspected. No leakage and no problems with the fasteners on 2-SI-117 and 2-SI-128 were noted. Valve 2-SI-117 IN PLACE 2-SI-118 was noticed to have a body to bonnet gasket leak. The valve was disassembled and inspected. A new gasket and all 2-SI-128 studs and nuts were replaced. The original fasteners were rejected because of boric acid and rust on the threads.
