I ENCLOSURE BELLEFONTE NUCLEAR PLANT UNITS 1 AND 2 ITT GRINNELL PIPE SUPPORTS DESIGNED WITH SWAY STRUTS INSTEAD OF REQUIRED GAPS BLRD-50-438/84-17, BLED-50-439/84-16 NCR BLN BLP 8403 10 CFR 50.55(e)

FIRST INTERIM REPORT Description of Deficiency ITT Grinnell-designed pipe supports ORF-MPHG-03-9 R3,1VE-MPHG-2392 Sh 1 R2, and 1VE-MPHG-2392 Sh 2 R0, which are located on alternately analyzed safety-related plant systems have incorrect pipe movement data shown on the ITT Grinnell detail sheets. This could result in a support design where friction loads were not evaluated or swing angles were not properly checked. The incorrect movement data shown on the pipe support detail sheets resulted from the misinterpretation of the non-numeric pipe movement data listed on the alternate analysis table of support loads.

Interim Progress TVA will revise the alternate analysis load tables involved in the deficiency to change the non-numeric pipe movement entries to numeric values. The support detail sheets will be reviewed against -the revised load tables as they are issued. Those supports identified as. possessing incorrect movement data will be revised and the calculations checked for adequacy.
