U.S. Atomic Energy Commission Directorate of Regulatory Operations 7920 Norfolk Avenue Bethesda, Maryland 20014 Attention of Mr. Donald F. Knuth, Director Gentlemen:
NO. 1 AUXILIARY FEEDWATER STORAGE TANK NO. 1 UNIT l SALEM NUCLEAR GENERATING STATI0h In compliance with AEC Regulation 100FR50(e), a verbal report was submitted on April 11, 1974 to Region 1, Directorate of '
Regulatory Operations concerning a crack in a roof plate of No. 1 Auxiliary Feedwater Tank at Salem Nuclear Generating' Station.
Our investigation cf the crack in the roof-plate of No. 1 Auxiliary Feedwater Tank revealed that in the process of removing a construction lug on one plate, the base material was torn.
, The construction lugs were welded to the roof plate segments-to facilitate field forming of the roof during construction.
This type of lug was welded to the roof segments only.
To ensure that no other tears were in the-roof plates of'this and five othe r similar tanks, all areas where the lugs were.
welded to the plates were visually inspected and a random sampling of twelve areas, two on each; tank, were dye penetrant inspected. No other tears were found.
The one crack in the tank roof- plate of No. - l Auxiliary Feedwater Storage Tank was ground out-and repaired.
From our visual inspection program of all locations:where con-struction lugs _ were welded to the roof and from the results of the dye penetrant inspection of twelve random areas, .we are-satisfied that this was an isolated occurrence and that these-tanks ~are structurally sound. L h
