4.2 Inservice Inspection Applicability Applies to the inservice inspection of Quality Groups A, B and C Components, High Energy Piping Outside of It al'o applies Containment and Steam Generator Tubes.

s to inservice pump and valve testing.

Objectives To provide assurance of the continuing structural and operational integrity of the structures, components and systems in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.55a(g).

Specification 4.2.1 The inservice inspection program for Quality Groups A, B and C components, High Energy Piping Outside of Containment and Steam Generator tubes shall be in accordance with Appendix B of the Ginna Station Quality Assurance Manual.

The inservice pump and valve testing program shall be in accordance with Appendix C of the Ginna Station Quality Assurance Manual.

These in-service inspection programs shall define the specific requirements of the edition and Addenda of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,Section XI, which are applicable for the forty month period of the ten year inspection interval.

The programs' ten year inspection l

intervals shall be based on the following commencing dates.

4.2.1.1 The inspection interval for Quality Group A components shall be ten year intervals of service commencing on January 1, 1970.

-4.2.1.2.

The inspection intervals for Quality Group B and C Components shall be ten year intervals of service commencing May 1, 1973, January 1, 1980, 1990 and 2000, respectively.

4.2.1.3 The inspection intervals for the High Energy Piping Outside of Containment shall be ten year intervals of service commencing May 1, 1973, January 1, 1980, 1990 4.2-1 Amendment No. kT Proposed

S and 2000, respectively.

The inspection program during l

each third of the first inspection interval provides for examination of all welds at design basis break locations and one-third of all welds at locations where a weld failure would result in unacceptable con-sequences.

During each succeeding inspection interva),

the program shall provide for an examinati'on of each of the design basis break location welds, and each'of the welds at locations where a weld failure would result in unacceptable consequences.

4.2.1.4 The inspection intervals for Steam Generator Tubes shall be specified in the " Inservice Inspection w

Program" for the applicable forty month period commencing with May,,1, 1973.

t 4.2.1.5 Inservice Inspection of ASME Code Class 1, C1 ass 2 and Class 3 components (Quality Groups A, B and C) shall be performed in accordance with Section XI of ths 'ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and applicable Addenda as required by 10 CFR 50, Section 50.55a(g), except where specific written relief has been gianted by the NRC pursuant to 10 CFR 50, Section 50.55a(g)(6)(i).

4.2.1.6 The inspection interval for the Inservice Pump and Valve Testing Program shall be ten year intervals commencing with January 1, 1981, 1990 and 2000.

l Basis:

The inservice inspection programs provide assura,nce for the continued structural integrity of the structures, components and systems of Ginna Station.

The programs comply with the ASME l

Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section XI " Rules for Inservice Inspection of Nuclear Power ~ Plant Components" as practicable, with due consideration to the design and physical access of the structures, components and systems as manufactured and con-structed.

This compliance will constitute an acceptable basis for satisfying the requirement of General Design Criterion 32, Appendix A of 10 CFR Part 50 and the requirements of Section 50.55a, paragraph g of 10 CFR Part 50.

This change revises the second and subsequent ten year i

interval start dates of the Quality Group B and C programs and 2 program for High Energy Piping outside of Containment to coincide

~%

with the interval of the Quality Group A program.

The revised Group B and C interval start date is consistent with the revised Inservice Inspection Program for the 1980-1989 intervals submitted in July 1979.

For consistency, consideration to change this High s-Energy Piping interval start date was subsequently considered.

A The interval start dates of the submitted Inservice Inspection Prograin are to be revised accordingly.

The change also incorporates the Inservice Pump and Valve Testing Program and corresponding interval start dates for the second and subsequent intervals.

This program, which originated as a supplement to the original program, is not currently referenced by Technical Specifications.

' The revisions have increased the component surveillance duri'ng the 40 month transition period between January 1, 1980 and 3 May-l', 1983 due to the interval 1 and 2 overlap.

This change, therefore, will not affect the health and safety of the public.

Attachment C In promulgating its interim final rule to comply with Public Law 97-415, the Commission published as guidelines a series of examples of amendments that are not likely to involve significant hazards considerations.

48 Fed. Reg. 14864, 14870.

The proposed change revises the second and subsequent ten year interval start dates for the Quality Group B and C ptograms and for the High Energy Line Break outside containment program.

The programs now begin January 1, 1980, January 1, 1990 and January 1, 2000.

The proposed change also incorporates a reference to the Pump and Valve Test Program.

Thus, the proposed revisions constitute additional limitations, that is, more restrictive requirements.

The Commission's example (ii) clearly applies to this change.

Therefore, the proposed change does not constitute a significant hazards consideration.

The proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
