TECHNICAL EVALUATION OF INTEGRITY CF THE PILGRIM NUCLEAR POWER STATION UNIT l' REACTOR COOLANT BOUNDARY PIPING SYSTEM 4

1.

INTRODUCTION Intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) of austenitic stainless steel (SS) piping has been observed in boiling water reactors f

(8WRs) since Decemoer 1965.I The NRC established a Pipe Crack Study Group (PCSG) in January 1975 to study the problem.2 The PCSG issued two documents, NUREG-75/067 Technical Report, Investigation and Evaluation of Cracking in Austenitic Stainless Steel Piping of Boiling Water Reactors 3 and an implementation document, NUREG-0313, Rev. 0.d After cracking in large-diameter piping was discovered for the first time in the Ouane Arnold BWR in 1978, a new PCSG was formed. The new PCSG in turn issued two 2

reports, NUREG-0531, Investigation and Evaluation of Stress-Corrosion Cracking in Piping of L'ight Water Reactor Plants 4 and NUREG-0313, Rev. 1 Technical Report on Material Selection and Processing Guidelines for BWR Coolant Pressure Boundary Piping.5 NUREG-0313, Rev. 1 is the implementing document of NUREG-0531 and discusses tne augmented inservice inspection (ISI) and leak detection requirements "for plants that cannot comply with the material selection, testing, and processing guidelines" of I

NUREG-0313, Rev.1.5 NRC Generic Letter 81-04 requested each licensee "to review all ASME Code Class 1 and 2 pressure boundary piping, safe ends, and fitting material, including weld metal to determine if (they) meet the material selection, testing and processing guidelines in" NUREG-0313, Rev.1.0 i

The generic letter offered the option of providing a description, schedule, and justification for alternative actions that would reduce the susceptibility of pressure boundary piping and safe ends to intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) or increase the probability of early detection of leakage from pipe cracks.

1 In response to NRC Generic Letter 81-04, Boston Edison Company submitted a letter on July 8, 1981.7 A request for information from tne NRC staff elicited another letter from Boston Edison Comp'any on May 20, 1983.8 EG4G Idano personnel evaluated these responses, and this report provides:

1 1.

A brief summary of the Ifcensee's response to each part of NUREG-0313, i

Rev. 1.

i 2.

A discussion of areas where the licensee does not meet the guidelines or requirements of NUREG-0313, Rev. 1.8 3.

A brief discussion of the licensee's proposed alternatives to NUREG-0313, Rev. 1; however, no determination of acceptability is made on these alternatives.

4.

An identification of all areas where the licensee has not provided sufficient information to judge the licensee's program.

There is an effort underway to revisa NUREG-0313, Rev. I by NRC in 1

lignt of research on IGSCC and recent instances of IGSCC at Nine Mile Point

-(March 1982) and Monticello (October 1982). Because of this contemplated revision of NUREG-0313, Rev. 1, the following issues will not be evaluated.

1.

The licensee's proposed Technical Specifications to implement the requirements, with the exception of the leak detection requirements in NUREG-0313, Rev. I, Sections IV.B.I.(a)(1) and IV.B.I.(a)(2).

I 2.

The acceptability of licensee-proposed augmented inservice inspection (ISI) sampling criteria.

Part III of NUREG-0313, Rev. I contains guidelines; Part IV contains requirements.

EVALUATION 2.1 NUREG-0313. Rev. 1 Guidelines The guidelines and requirements outlined in NUREG-0313, Rev. I form the basis of this evaluation. The NUREG-0313, Rev. I guidelines are found in Parts III and V and the requirements in Parts II and IV of that document. Part II discusses implementation of material selection, testing, and processing guidelines. Part III summarizes acceptable methods to minimize IGSCC susceptibility with respect to the material selection, testing, and processing guidelines. Part IV deals with leak detection and inservice inspection requirements of nonconfonning (i.e., not meeting the guidelines of Part III of NUREG-0313, Rev.1) piping. Part V discusses general recommendations.

2.2 Discussion of Tables Table I has the complete text Parts II througn V of NUREG-0313. Rev. 1 on the left side so that the reader may be able to refer to it as the topics are discussed. The right side summarizes tne licensee's responses, lists the differences between the licensee's proposed implementation program and NUREG-0313. Rev.1, and identifies the additional data required to evaluate the licensee's response.

Many sections in Parts II through IV of NUREG-0313, Rev. I are not discussed in the right hand column.

In these cases, one of the cancents below will be used.

Not applicable because the construction permit for this plant o

has been issaed.

Not applicable because the operating license for this plant has o

been issued.

o Not applicable because the plant has been constructed.

4

o The licensee has not furnished data on this topic in his responses to NRC Generic Letter 81-04 o

No comment made because alternative plans were not evaluated.

Table 2 lists the sunnaries of the licensee's responses to NRC questions on implementation of NUREG-0313, Rev. 1 guidelines. Therefore, in Table 2 the reader is able to read all the summaries in one table without having to search Table I for all the summaries.

The same compilation applies to Tables 3 and 4.

Table 3 lists the differences between the licensee's proposed implementation program and that recommended in NUREG-0313. Rev.1. Table 4 lists the areas where additional information is required to properly evaluate the licensee's proposed implementation program. All the items in Tables 2, 3, and 4 are listed in their respective tables in the order they appear in Table 1.

2.3 Discrepancies Any alternate proposal that did not meet a specific guideline or requirement of NUREG-0313, Rev. I was considered a discrepancy. Evaluation of alternate proposals was outside the scope of this task, as indicated in Section 1 of this report. Licensees have submitted definitions of "nonservice sensitive" and augmented ISI proposals that differ from NUREG-0313, Rev. 1.

These differences are considered minor because the NRC staff is considering major modifications to those requirements. An example of a minor discrepancy is the use of the stress rule index (SRI) to choose which welds would be subjected to augmented ISI.

If the alternate proposal to leak detection does not meet the requirements in NUREG-0313, Rev.1, it was considered a major discrepancy because NRC is not considering major modifications to those requirements.

{

An example of a major discrepancy is a licensee's not proposing Technical Specifications to implement leak detection requirements in NUREG-0313, Rev. 1.

Only major discrepancies are ilsted in the Conclusions section.

3.

CONCLUSIONS Boston Edison's Pilgrim auclear Power Station plant n'as the following major discrepancies:

IV.B.I.a.(1) Leak Detection and Monitoring Systems BECO's description of Pilgrim l's leak detection methods indicates they do not meet Section C of Regulatory Guide 1.45.

IV.B.1.a.(2) Leak Detection Requirements BECo has not proposed a requirement for shutdown af ter a 2-gpm increase in unidentified leakage in 24 h into the Technical Specifications for Pilgrim 1.

BECo has not proposed a requirement for monitoring the sump level at 4-h intervals (or less).

BECo does not meet NUREG-0313, Rev.1 in this matter.

There are minor discrepancies as well as the major ones listed above.

These minor discrepancies are not listed here. However, while the licensee's alternate proposals that have been classified as minor discrepancies might be acceptable under the anticipated revision of NUREG-0313, Rev.1, it should not be inferred that approval of those alternate proposals has been given.

The licensee has not suoplied sufficient information to evaluate his responses to topic II.C., IV.8.1.a.(1), IV.8.1.b.(3), IV.8.1.b.(4),

IV.8.2.a., and IV.8.2.b.(6).

Table 4 lists the required information for each topic.

TABLE 2 SUMMARIES OF EVALUATION OF LICENSEE'S RESPONSES II.C. Material Selection, Testing, and Processing Guidelines for BWRs with an Operating License Boston Edison Company (BECo) is not planning to replace nonconforming " service sensitive" lines at Pilgrim, but is evaluating induction heating stress improvement and heat sink weiding to reduce the possibility of IGSCC. BECo has presented an alternative to NUREG-0313, Rev. 1.

IV.8.

Service Sensitive Pipe BECo has classified various portions of the recirculation system reactor water cleanup system, and RHR system as nonconforming "nonservice sensitive"; whereas all these systems should be nonconforming " service sensitive" because NRC considers the recirculation system as " service sensitive". BECo has presented an alternative to NUREG-0313, Rev. 1.

TABLE 3 DIFFERENCES BETWEEN NUREG-0313, REV. l '

AND LICENSEE'S RESPONSES II.C. Material Selection, Testing, and Processing Guidelines for BWRs with an Operating License NUREG-0313, Rev. I requires that NRC-designated nonconforming

" service sensitive" lines be replaced with corrosion-resistant materials to the extent practical. Also, lines that experience cracking should be replaced with corrosion-resistant materials.

BECo is not planning to replace nonconfonning " service sensitive" lines.

Instead, BECo is evaluating induction heating stress improvement (IHSI) and heat sink welding (HSW) to reduce the possibility of IGSCC.

IV.8.

" Service Sensitive" Pipe NUREG-0313, Rev. I has given examples of " service sensitive" piping in Part IV.B.

Part IV.8. further states that should any IGSCC be found in a particular piping run and be considered generic by the NRC, it will be designated as " service sensitive".

IGSCC has recently been found in the recirculation system piping and the RHR systems. Therefore, both those systems should be

" service sensitive".

BECo has classified the following portions of selected systems as nonconforming "nonservice sensitive":

1.

The recirculation system circumferential pipe welds--excluding the nozzle-to-safe ends, the bypass cap welds, and the riser lines.

29

)

i 2.

The reactor water cleanup system from the residual heat removal (RHR) tie-in to outboard isolation valve 1201-5.

3.

The RHR system from outboard isolation valves 1001-29A and 8 to the discharge of recirculation loops A and B, respectively.0 All circumferential welds in nonconforming pipe in the recirculation system are " service sensitive". Also, the RHR system from the recirculation system loops to the outboard isolation valves are " service sensitive".

IV.B.I.a.(1) Leak Detection and Monitoring Systems The nine subsections of Section C of Regulatory Guide 1.45 are discussed below.

C.1 BECo has stated that leakage to the primary reactor containment from identified sources is collected such that a.

the flow rates are monitored separately from unidentified leakage,9 and b.

the total flow rate can be established and monitored.'

C.2 It is not clear from the Pilgrim i Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) that unidentified leakaga to the primary reactor containment can be collected and the flow rate monitored with an accuracy of I gpm or better.

C.3 The primary containment leak detection methods in Pilgrim 1 consist of the following:

a.

Floor and equipment drain sumps b.

Drywell atmospheric radiation monitors 30

\\

1)

Particulate 2)

Gaseous 3)

Halogen.

Drywell temperature and humidity recorders.8 c.

The Pilgrim 1 primary containment leak detection methods meet Section C.3 of Regulatory Guide 1.45.

C.4 It is not clear whether provisions have been made in the Pilgrim 1 FSAR to monitor systems connected to the RCPB for signs of intersystem leakage.

C.5 It is not known whether the Pilgrim 1 primary containment leak detection methods can detect a leakage rate, or its equivalent, of I gpm in less than 1 h.

C.6 The Pilgrim 1 airborne particulate radioactivity monitoring system does not renain functional when subjected to the SSE.8 C.7 Indicators and alarms for the required leakage detection system are provided in the main control room.

It is not clear from the Pilgrim 1 FSAR that procedures for converting various indications to a common leakage equivalent are available to the operators.

)

l It is not known wnether calibration of the indicators accounts for the needed independent variables.

C.8 Only the particulate and halogen atmospheric radiation monitors in Pilgrim 1 can be calibrated or tested during operation. The other leak detection systems cannot be calibrated or tested during operation.8 l

4 31

C.9 The Pilgrim 1 Technical Specifications include limiting conditions for identified and unidentified leakage.

Pilgrim 1 does not meet all the requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.45, Section C.

IV.B.I.a.(2) Leak Detection Requirements NUREG-0313, Rev. I requires that reactor shutdown be initiated when there is a 2-gpm increase in unidentified leakage in 24 h.

For sump level monitoring systems with the fixed-measurement interval method, the level should be monitored every 4 h or less.

NRC Generic Letter 81-04 requires that the above requirements be incorporated in the plant Technical Specifications.

BECo has not proposed a requirement for shutdown for a 2-gpm increase in unidentified leakage in 24 h in the Pilgrim 1 Technical Specifications. The monitoring of leakage monitoring systems is performed once a shift (8 h).O IV.B.I.b.

Augmented ISI of Nonconforming "Nonservice Sensitive" Pipe NUREG-0313, Rev.1 includes requirements for augmented ISI intervals for "nonservice sensitive" and " service sensitive" pipe. The augmented ISI requirements for " service sensitive" pipe are more stringent than those for "nonservice sensitive" pipe.

In Paragraph IV.B. above, the pipe that BECo considered "nonservice sensitive" was identified.

It was found that some of those pipes--the recirculation system and the RHR system from the recirculation system to the outboard isolation valves--should be classified as " service sensitive" and should be subjected to augmented ISI for " service sensitive" pipe. BECo did not meet NUREG-0313, Rev. 1 in this matter.

The pipes that are considered "nonservice sensitive" will be subjected to an augmented ISI program that meets NUREG-0313, Rev. 1.8 32

IV.B.I.b.(3) Augmented ISI of Nonconforming "Nonservice Sensitive" ASME Code Class 2 Pipe NUREG-0313, Rev. I requires that nonconforming ASME Code Class 1 and Class 2 piping be subjected to an augmented ISI program. The augmented ISI program for ASME Code Class 1 piping differs from that required on Class 2 piping. Also, augmented ISI requirements differ for ASME Code Class 2 pipes to be inspected per Parts IV.B.l.b.(3) and IV.B.1.b.(4) of NUfsEG-0313, Rev.1.

BECo has submitted the augmented ISI program for nonconforming "nonservice sensitive" piping, but has not distinguished between the ASME Code Class 1 and Class 2 piping, and between the ASME Code Class 2 pipes which are to be inspected per Parts IV.B.1.b.(3) and IV.B.l.b.(4) of NUREG-0313, Rev. 1.

Therefore, BECo's program for ASME Code Class 2 piping cannot be evaluated.

BECo has indicated that the nonconforming "nonservice sensitive" ASME Code Class 2 piping augmented ISI intervals will be that of the "nonservice sensitive" ASME Code Class 1 piping.8 BEco meets NUREG-0313, Rev. 1 in this regard.

IV.B. l.b. (4) Augmented ISI for ASME Code Class 1 Pipe Welds with High Potential for Cracking NUREG-0313, Rev. I requires that nonconfonning ASME Code Class 1 and Class 2 piping be subjected to an augmented ISI_ program. The augmented ISI program for ASME Code Class 1 piping differs from I

that required on Class 2 piping. Also, augmented ISI requirements differ for ASME Code Class 2 pipes to be inspected per Parts IV.B.1.b.(3) and IV.8.1.b. (4) of NUREG-0313, Rev. 1.

BECo has submitted the augmented ISI program for nonconforming "nonservice sensitive" piping, but has not distinguished between the ASME Code Class 1 and Class 2 piping, and between the ASME Code Class 2 pipes which are to be inspected per. Parts 33

IV.B.1.b.(3) and IV.8.1.b.(4) of NUREG-0313, Rev. 1.

Therefore, BECo's program for ASME Code Class 2 piping cannot be evaluated because they have not been identified.

BECO has indicated that the nonconforming "nonservice sensitive" ASME Code Class 2 piping augmenteo ISI intervals will be that of the "nonservice sensitive" ASME Code Class 1 piping.8 BECo meets NUREG-0313, Rev. I with respect to the inspection interval.

IV.8.1.b.(6) Alternative Augmented ISI Sampling Plans NUREG-0313, Rev. I requires that nonconforming ASME Code Class 1 and Class 2 piping be subjected to an augnented ISI program. The augmented ISI program for ASME Code Class 1 piping differs from that required on Class 2 piping.

SECo has submitted the augmented ISI program for nonconforming

" service sensitive" piping, but has not distinguished between the ASME Code Class 1 and Class 2 piping. Therefore, BECo's program for ASME Code Class 2 piping cannot be evaluated because the ASME Code Class 2 piping has not been identified.

BECo has indicated that the nonconforming " service sensitive" ASME Code Class 2 piping augmented ISI intervals will be that of the "s' rvice sensitive" ASME Code Class 1 piping. BECo has submitted e

an alternate plan which meets NUREG-0313, Rev.1 in the inspection intervals.

IV.8.2.b.

Augmented ISI of Nonconforming " Service Sensitive" Pipe NUREG-0313, Rev. I requires that nonconforming " service sensitive" pipe welds be subject to an augmented ISI program. Selection methods for pipe welds and inspection intervals to be selectea are

. found in Part IV.B.2.b. of NUREG-0313, Rev.1.

BECo has designated the following portions of selecteo systems as nonconforming " service sensitive":

34 4

~

i 1.

"The core spray lines between the first valve from the l

reactor vessel and the outboard isolation valve.

l 2.

The recirculation system risers.

3.

The recirculation system bypass stubs and caps.

4 The recirculation system inlets and safe ends.

5.

The shutdown heat exchanger (RHR) lines from the recirculation loops to the outboard isolation valves."O The above list meets NUREG-0313, Rev.1. However, some portions of selected systems that were labeled nonconforming "nonservice sensitive" by BECo are considered nonconforming " service sensitive" by NRC. These are listed in Paragraph IV.8. above.

Therefore, BECo's list of nonconforming " service sensitive" pipe meets NUREG-0313, Rev. 1, but is not exhaustive.

BECo has adopted the 1974 Edition, Summer 1975 Addenda of ASME Section XI for the selection and inspection interval of circumferential pipe welds in Class 1 and 2 systems. BECo will reduce the inspection interval from 120 to 80 months for the inspection of these welds.O BEco's alternative to NUREG-0313, Rev. I does not meet NUREG-0313, Rev. 1.

IV.B.2.b.(6) Augmented ISI of Nonconforming " Service Sensitive" ASME Code Class 2 Pipe l

NUREG-0313, Rev. I requires that nonconforming ASME Code Class 1 and Class 2 piping be subjected to an augmented ISI program. The augmented ISI program for ASME Code Class 1 piping differs from that required on Class 2 piping.

35 r =

BECo has submitted the augmented ISI program for nonconforming

" service sensitive" piping, but has not distinguished between the ASME Code Class 1 and Class 2 piping. Therefore', BECo's program for ASME Code Class 2 piping cannot be evaluated without more data.

SECo has indicated that the nonconfonning " service sensitive" ASME Code Class 2 piping augmented ISI intervals will be that of the

" service sensitive" ASME Code Class 1 piping. BLCo has submitted an alternate plan to NUREG-0313, Rev. 1.
