20555 NRC DOCKET 50-366 OPERATING LICENSE NPF-5 EDWIN I. HATCH NUCLEAR PLANT UNIT 2 CORRECTION TO SUBMITTAL ON INSPECTION OF INCONEL-BUTTERED RECIRCULATION SYSTEM N0ZZLES Gentlemen:

By letter dated July 27, 1984, Georgia Power Company provided you with information concerning the inservice inspection of selected Inconel 182-buttered Recirculation System nozzles during the 1984 maintenance / refueling outage at Hatch Unit 2.

Review of the subject letter by NRC Region II inspector, Mr.

B.

R.

Crowley, has indicated that a contradictory statement exists in Attachment 2 of that letter relative to the inspection of the Recirculation System jet pump instrumentation nozzle safe end-to-penetration seal welds.

The purpose of this letter is to correct the contradictory statement in our July 27, 1984 submittal.

Paragraph 2 of Appendix 2 of our July 27 letter incorrectly stated that the non-relevant indications observed in both "A"

and "B"

Loop safe end-to-penetration seal welds were detected on the ultrasonic instrument screen in a position representing a half vee-path node.

This statement is contradictory to Statement I which along with Statements 2 through 5 in Appendix 2 of the subject letter provides justification for the non-relevant indications as being evaluated as not representing material defects.

Please be advised that the indications were detected on the ultrasonic instrument screen in a position representing a one-and-a-half vee-path node rather than that discussed above and in Appendix 2 of our July 27 submittal.

This corrected statement resolves the contradiction between the original erroneous statement regarding indication screen position and Statement 1 of the justifications cited in Appendix 2 of the subject letter.
