ABME SECTION XI EXAMINATION REQUIREMENT Perform a surface examination during each inspection interval of the valve body welds of at l' east one

~ valve within each group of valves that are of the same size, design, function and service in a system.

The examination may be performed from the inside o the outside surface of the valve, ALTERNATIVE EXAMINATION The accessible portions of the valve body walds of one valve will be examined in accordance with the Code to the max! mum extent practical. In addition, both of these valves will be subjected to periodic system and hydrostatic pressure tests in accordance with IWA-5000 and IWC-2500-1, The valve body consists of two 10-in. diameter straight sections of seam welded Schedule 40 Type 304 stainless steel pipe and one elbow welded together circumferentiaily. The lower portion cf the valve includes a longitudinal seam weld with a circumferential weld at each end. These welds will receive a surface examination from the exterior in accordance with the Code.

The upper port!on of the valve has a longitudinal seam weld (approximately 11 feet in length) that, except for approximately 4 inches, is inaccessible from the exterior since it is embedded in concrete.

l-1

O The 4 in. longitudinal seam on the upper portion that is eccesslldo will teclove e surfac9 examiration.

The intogthy of the remaltdor of the upper portion will be verlilod during system hydrostatic and fu ctional pressure tests.

BEMQ1tEQ1LLtMLIA11011 The upper portlan that is emtxdd(d in concrete can not be moaningfully examinod frr.rn the insido using a surface sumirmtlon method due to the longth ard the diamotor (10-in) of the velve. The valvo will teve to be disassemtdod ard the plug ard stem removed in order to complete the examination. The disassomtdy of those valves for the sde purpose of examtration would result in unnocessary exposure to radbtlon a:d contamination aid h entrary to ALAhA guWotinos. The examination would do little to add to the assi. trance of the structural intogthy of those valvas sinco they are subjectJd to system and hydrostatic pressure tests on a regular tvals in accordance wkh IWMiOOO and IWC 2500 t. The valvo, therefore, shou:d not be disassomtdod fut the solo purpose of this examination.

Assis for Relief The portions of ISI Class 2 piping from which relief is being requested cannot be Iselated from the ISI Cless 1 reactor coolant system due to the check vane configurations. The adjacent reactor coolant system hydrostatic test is perforrned at 2350 psig. The piping from which relief is being requested is line class 2501R which has a design pressure of 2500 psig and would require n test pressure of 3225 psig.

Therefore, to test these portions in accordance with the Code could result in over pressurlzation of the reactor coolant system and boren would be injected into the rssc*or coolant systent Attttnale_Exelninallen Perform the required VT 2 examination based on the lower design pressure of the piping that is upstream of these portions, which would teguire the piping to be tested at a pressure of 2190 psig. This test is to be conducted coincident with the reactor coolant system hydrostatlc test to prevent the accidental injection of boron into the reactor coolant system.

Basis for Hellt!

The portions of ISI Class 3 pipinD deso,ibed above cannot be isolated from the suction side of the aux'llary foodwater pumps. Physical limitations of contrifugal pumps require the discharge piping to be tested with the suction side of the pumps. The design pressure for the suction side of these pumps is 50 psig, resulting in a required test pressute of 55 psig. However, the discharge piping has a design pressure of 1440 psig, which would require a to t pressure of 1584 psig. The maximi m test pressure for the discharge piping is achieved by operation of the pumps,1325 psig for pump 1P 29 and 1420 psig ior pump 1P 38A.

B6ste for Alltj The portions of ISI Ossa 2 piping described above cannot be isolated from the suction side of the containment spray pumps. Physical limitations of centrifugal pumps require the discharge piping to be tested wl:5 the suction side of the pumps. The design pressure for the suction side of these pumps is 150 psig, resutting In a required test pressure of 180 psig. However, the discharge piping has a design pressure of 370 pntg, which would require a test pressure of 403 psig. The maximum test pressure for the discharge piping is achieved by simultaneously operating thJ RHR pumps and the containment spray pumps in tieries to provide additional containment spray pump suction pressure at the spray pump dischar00. This process, referred to as ' piggy back' mode, produces a discharge piping test pressure on 400 psig and is performed during the in4 trvice Test, ' Leakage Reduction and Preventive Maintenance Program of the Containm(nt Spray System,'IT 540A.

J.P.Ls for Relief i

The service water system supp!!es cooling water to bot'i units at PBNP. Normal system operating pressure is 75 psig. The design pressure for this system is 100 psig, resulting in a regulred test pressure of 110 psig. PBNP plant technical spe;lficstions 15.3.3.D 1 and 1o.3.3.D 2 prevent configuring the service water system to permit hydrostatic testrva in accordance with the Code. Therefore, the portions of ISI Cissa 3 piping described above cannot be isolated for the purpose of hydrostatic testing without placing the plant in a LCO as well as intrcducing the risk of a pani technical specification violatlen.

Alternate FMRllDell23 A VT 2 visual examlnation will be performed during a 'modifiud" system inservice test in lieu of a system hydrostatic test. However, all six pumps will be operated to attain the maximum allown'e pressure without exceeding 100 psig.

Dalla _f0f.Eff21 The portions of ISI Class O piping from which relief is being requested rhould have a test pressure based on the safety waNu setpoint of valves 1CC 762A and 100 762B,2500 psig. These portions have boon designed to a high internsi pressure (equivalent in the primary system pressure) to meet conditions that could exist in the event of a heat excha eger leak inside of the pump. The maximum component cooling wat6r ptessure inside the thermal blurier urder normal operating conditions should not exceed 150 psig.

As stated in the technical neanual 6Lt the reactor coolant pumps, the manufacturer of the pumps states that the maxtraum allowable thermal barrlor htat exchanger intomal field hydrostatic test pressure is 225 psig. Becaurie of th!s, hydrostatic testing of componento in the attaclat component cooling water system to higher pressures should only be performed with the heat exchseger isolated or disconnected and bypassed. However, insufficient clearance exists at the flanged connections rear valves ICC-758A and 100 758B to connect a hydrostatic test rig. Tharefore, these portions must to testod coincident with the pressure test that is performed whh the adjacent piping system.

Afternate Examinallon The hydrostatic test wRl be performed at the same pressure as tno adjacent componant cooling water piping system, 200 psig.
