Dear Sir:

In the Reference 1 letter, the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC) concluded that operation of the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station (PBAPS), Unit 3 with cracked but clamped core spray downcomers was acceptable. As part of this review, the modification to p the core spray piping was submitted to the USNRC for your review. This information was

., submitted in the Reference 2 letter. As diecussed in the Reference 3 letter, for the upcoming PBAPS, Unit 2 outage scheduled to begin September,1996, Core Spray ' '

]. downcomer welds at the spigot / sleeve joint connecting the downcomer to the sparger inlet elbow (welds P6 and P7, and the Heat Affected Zone of weld PS) will be examined. If

indications are identified, PBAPS is prepared to install repairs similar to those installed

, during the past PBAPS, Unit 3 outage (3R10). As a part of the pre-planning process, 2

PECO Energy Company is sutxnitting the repair package for the core spray piping. This 4

information is being submitted now in order to expedite the review schedule of the repair l package if it becomes necessary to install the repair. If this repair is necessary, the g , )

4 USNRC will be verbally notified and a review requested. I j

APPROVED DISPOSITION:

THIS MODIFICATION PROVIDES A CONTINGENCY REPAIR FOR THE CORE SPRAY DOWNCOMER PIPES LOCATED AT AZIMUTHS 7.5, 172.5, 187.5 AND 352.5 OF THE UNIT 2 REACTOR PRESSURE VESSEL (RPV). THE REPAIR ADDRESSES POTENTIAL CRACKING IN THE SPIGOT / SLEEVE JOINTS WHICH ATTACH EACH DOWNCOMER TO THE CORE SPRAY SPARGER INLET PIPE. THE REPAIR METHOD WILL BE A MECHANICAL CLAMP. THE CLAMP IS CONSIDERED A PERMANENT REPAIR FOR POTENTIAL CRACKING IN THE WELDED SLEEVE CONNECTING THE DOWNCOMER (WELD 1)

APPROVED OlSPOSITION: ,

l TO THE CORE SPRAY PIPING ENTERING THE SHROUD AS FOUND PREVIOUSLY IN UNIT 3. THE CLAMP DESIGN ALSO ALLOWS FOR CRACKING (360 DEG. THROUGH WALL) AT THE SLEEVE / SPIGOT ,

WELD, THE SPIGOT / PIPE WELD, BELOW THE PIPE / SLEEVE WELD '

(UNIT 3 CRACK LOCATION) AND THE PIPE / ELBOW WELD JUST ABOVE THE SHROUD PENETRATION (WELDS 2 THROUGH 4).

k. BASIS DURING PBAPS UNIT 3 1993 AND 1995 REFUELING OUTAGES (3R09 AND 3R10), INSPECTIONS PERFORMED IN RESPONSE TO USNRC IE BULLETIN NO. 80-13, IDENTIFIED CRACK INDICATIONS ON ALL FOUR CORE SPRAY LINE DOWNCOMERS (ECR'S PB 94-11881 AND 95-04532). THE CRACK INDICATIONS WERE LOCATED IN THE VERTICAL SECTION (DOWNCOMER) OF THE CORE SPRAY LINE OUTSIDE THE SHROUD, BUT INSIDE THE KPV WHERE TWO SECTIONS OF PIPING MEET AND ARE CONNECTED BY TWO CIRCUMFERENTIALLY WELDED SLEEVES. REPAIRS WERE AFFECTED ON ALL FOUR CORE SPRAY LINE DOWNCOMER SECTIONS FOR UNIT 3.

kLTHOUGHPASTIEBULLETINNO. 80-13 INSPECTIONS HAVE NOT IDENTIFIED CRACKS IN THE UNIT 2 CORE SPRAY DOWNCOMERS, AN EQUIVALVENT REPAIR HAS BEEN PREPARED TO ADDRESS THE POTENTIAL FOR SIMILAR CRACKING IN THE UNIT 2 CORE SPRAY DOWNCOMERS.

B. ENGINEERING EVALUATION THE COMPLETE ENGINEERING EVALUATION FOR THE CLAMP DESIGN IS PROVIDED IN THE ATTACHED GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY DESIGN DOCUMENTATION. IN

SUMMARY

, THE CLAMPS WILL PREVENT SEPARATION OF THE CORE SPRAY DOWNCOMER FROM THE SHROUD INLET PIPING. THE ESTIMATED LEAKAGE RESULTING FROM THE WORST CASE CRACKING IN THE REGION IS WITHIN MARGINS REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN ADEQUATE CORE SPRAY FLOW TO THE REACTOR CORE DURING ALL REQUIRED DESIGN BASIS ACCIDENTS (DBA'S).

THE MODIFICATION DESIGN ADDS TWO LONG CLAMPS (SIMILAR IN DESIGN TO THE CLAMP USED FOR THE 172.5 DEG. CORE SPRAY LINE IN UNIT 3) TO THE 7.5 AND 172.5 DEGREE AZIMUTH DOWNCOMERS (LOOP B) AND TWO SHORTER CLAMPS DESIGNED FOR THE 187.5 AND 352.5 DEGREE AZIMUTH DOWNCOMERS (LOOP A).

ATTACHMENT PAGE 59 SHOWS THE CLAMP DESIGNS. THE UPPER CLAMP BEARS ON THE TOP OF THE COLLAR THAT ATTACHES THE CORE SPRAY LINE TO THE CORE SPRAY SPARGER INLET PIPE.

THE LOWER CLAMP IS CENTERED OVER THE INLET PIPE TO ELBOW JOINT.' SEPARATION OF THE CLAMP PAIRS IS USED TO PROPERLY ADJUST THE CLAMPS TO ENSURE THAT EACH OF THE CLAMPS ARE POSITIONED CORRECTLY OVER THE WELD AREAS. THE PRIMARY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO DESIGNS IS THE MEANS BY WHICH THE UPPER AND LOWER CLAMPS ARE SEPARATED: THE LONG CLAMP DESIGN SEPARATES THE PAIR THROUGH THE USE OF AN ADJUSTABLE TIE ROD AND THE SHORT CLAMP'S SEPARATION IS

l

. A PECO ENERGY PAGE 0003 ECR Printout ECR NUMBER: PB 95-04972 000 ECR TYPE: MOD APPROVED DISPOSITION:

FIXED. THE SHORT CLAMP IS ADJUSTABLE IN THAT THE UPPER CONTACT PAD WAS LENGTHENED TO ENSURE PROPER CONTACT. A U-BOLT THAT ATTACHES TO THE UPPER CLAMP PROVIDES AXIAL RESTRAINT BETWEEN THE COLLAR AND ELBOW, SPANNING THE CRACK LOCATION. THE MODIFICATION IS DESIGNED TO NOT INTERFERE WITH THE SHROUD STABILIZER INSTALLATION OR WITH NORMAL REACTOR SERVICING ACTIVITIES.

THE MODIFICATION REPAIR IS PERMANENT. THE REPAIR IS l DESIGNED FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE PLANT LIFE, INCLUDING EXTENSIONS, USING THE ASME BOILER AND PRESSURE VESSEL l CODE, SECTION NG (1989 EDITION) AS A GUIDE FOR DESIGN I ANALYSIS. CLAMP HARDWARE IS CLASSIFIED AS SAFETY RELATED,

& IS DESIGNED TO CURRENT ACCEPTED STANDARDS. THEREFORE, IT CAN WITHSTAND THE SAME DESIGN BASIS LOADS AS THE l CURRENT CSL DOWNCOMER UNDER NORMAL AND ABNORMAL OPERATING CONDITIONS. THE INSTALLATION OF THIS HARDWARE WILL NOT AFFECT (DEGRADE) THE OTHER RPV INTERNALS.

PROVISIONS FOR ADDITIONAL CRACKING IN THE CORE SPRAY DOWNCOMER (I.E. ABOVE THE PIPE / SLEEVE WELD) WERE NOT INCORPORATED INTO THE DESIGN DUE TO ADDITIONAL COST, IMPACT ON INSTALLATION SCHEDULE, THE LOW PROBABILITY CRACKS WOULD DEVELOP IN THIS REGION (REFERENCE 12) AND THE ACCEPTABLE CONDITION OF THE UNIT 3 DOWNCOMER PIPES AS DETERMINED THROUGH UT INSPECTION (REFERENCE 13).

C. APPLICATION THE TWO CLAMP DESIGNS ARE DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY FOR EITHER UPPER (187.5 & 352.5 DEGREE AZIMUTHS) OR LOWER (7.5'& 172,5 DEGREE AZIMUTH) SHROUD PENETRATIONS AS SHOWN ON ATTACHMENT PAGES 62 AND 63. l D. IE BULLETIN 80-13 INSPECTIONS UPON INSTALLATION OF THE CLAMP, THE EXISTING INDICATION, THE SLEEVE / SPIGOT WELD, THE SPIGOT / PIPE WELD & THE PIPE /

i 1.0 BASIC FUNCTIONS 4

This modification will repair cracks found in all four Core Spray Downcomers i

within the Unit 3 Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV). The crack indications are located in the vertical sections (downcomers) of the core spray piping (azimuths 352.5 *, 7.5 *,187.5

  • and 172.5* for the 'A', 'B', 'C' and 'D' downcomers respectively) in the annulus region of the RPV, where two sections of piping meet and are connected by two circumferentially welded sleeves. There are a l

total of four downcomers in the vessel, two per each core spray loop. The I indications are oriented circumferentially in the Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) of the pipe sleeve where the sleeve is welded to the downcomer line.

1 The crack indication in the 'D' downcomer was originally identified in October 1993 during refueling outage 3R09 in vessel visual inspections. Analysis performed in 1993 (NCR PB 93-00754) provided justification for continued operation through the subsequent operating cycle. This analysis was reviewed and approved by the USNRC as documented in USNRC SER dated November I 16,1993. l downcomers were identified by

! The crack indications in the 'A' and 'C' ,

1 augmented visualinspections performed during refueling outage 3R10 (October I 1995). Following visual inspections, ultrasonic examinations were performed  ;

i on all four downcomers in which the 'B' downcomer indications were discovered.

The intent of each repair is to restore the structural integrity. of the spigot / sleeve joint. Therefoie, the repair will prevent separation of the [,

downcomer piping under normal and Design Basis Accident (DBA) conditions.

Revision 2 of this DlD has been created to add a contingency repair for the Unit 2 Core Spray downcomers. The design inputs associated with this modification are not unit . specific. Therefore, no further changes are required to this.

2.1 ASME SECTION XI BOUNDARIES

' The downcomer piping is located in the Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) ,

and is designed to channel flow from the RPV inlet nozzle to the core spray sparger. The downcomer piping is not shown on any ASME Section XI P&lD and is not considered a pressure boundary component j

nor a core support structure. Therefore, the installation of the downcomer clamps does not fall within the jurisdictional boundaries of an ASME Section XI repair rules, as described in Specification M-679 i Rev.2.

!' 2.5 ASME SECTION XI ISI PROGRAM

' The downcomer piping and any associated repair are subject to j augmented inspection under the ISI Program (Specification M-733). Any additional supports or clamping devices required for repair will be i

included into the ISI Program as augmented inspection requirements.

10CFR50.59 REVIEW for MODIFICATION P00335 i INSTALLATION of CORE SPRAY LINE DOWNCOMER CLAMPS in Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Unit 2 )

I. SUBJECT nis 10CFR50.59 Review addresses the contingency repair of the Unit 2 core spray line downcomers at the 7.5,172.5,187.5 and 352.5 degree azimuth shroud penetration locations.

During Peach Bottom Unit 31993 and 1995 refueling outages (3R09 & 3R10) inspections performed in response to USNRC IE Bulletin No. 80-13, identified crack indications on all four core spray line downcomers, Reference 1. The crack indications were located in the venical section (downcomer) of the core spray line outside the shroud but inside the Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) where the downcomer pipe is connected to a welded sleeve. The indications ran circumferentially in the Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) of the pipe sleeve where the l

sleeve is welded to the downcomer line. The location of the indications are '

shown in Figure 1. Repairs were affected on all four core spray line downcomers for Unit 3.

Although past IE Bulletin No. 80-13 inspections have not identified cracks in the Unit 2 core spray downcomers, an equivalent repair has been prepared to address the potential for similar cracking in the Unit 2 core spray downcomers. ,

ne function of the modification is to ensure the structural integrity of the Core Spray (CS) downcomer even if cracking were to develop around the full circumference anywhere from the HAZ below weld 1 through weld 4. The proposed change adds two long clamps (similar to the clamp used for the 172.5 degree core spray line in Unit 3) to the 7.5 and 172.5 degree azimuth downcomers (Loop B) and two shoner clamps designed for the 187.5 and 352.5 degree azimuth downcomers (Loop A). The design concepts are illustrated in Figure 2. De upper clamp bears on the top of the sleeve that attaches the core spray downcomer to the core spray sparger inlet pipe. The lower clamp is centered over the inlet pipe to elbow weld joint. Separation of the clamp pairs

is used to properly adjust the clamps to ensure that each of the clamps are i positioned correctly over the weld areas. De primary difference between the two designs is the means by which the upper and lower clamps are separated

the long clamp design separates the pair through the use of an adjustable tie rod and the shon clamp's separation is fixed. He shon clamp is

o PC ECR hhN7[ REV ATTACHMENT PAGE // CF Peach Bottom. Unit 2 ,

U" ' 150.59 Review. Rev. O  ;

ssi a Rev Modification P00335 Page 2 orlo l

adjustable in that the upper contact pad was lengthened to ensure proper contact. A U-bolt that attaches to the upper clamp provides axial restraint between the collar and elbow, spanning the crack location. The proposed modification is designed so l as not to interfere with the shroud stabilizer installation or with normal reactor servicing activities.

i The proposed change is permanent. The change is designed for the remainder of the plant life, including extensions. using the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section NG (1989 Edition) as a guide for design and analysis. The repair clamp l hardware is classified as safety-related. and is designed to current accepted l l

standards. Therefore, it can withstand the same design bases loads as the current I

core spray line downcomer under nonnal and abnormal operating conditions. The installation of this hardware will not affect (degrade) the other RPV intemals.

This review demonstrates that the clamp can be installed without impacting previously evaluated conditions of the SAR and it has no impact on the bases of the Technical Specification and does not involve any unreviewed safety question.

II. DETERMINATION

1. Does the activity require a Technical Specification (TS) change or other Facility l Operating License amendment?

I No. The clamp repairs ensure the integrity of each core spray downcomer line l j

inside the RPV. There is no unacceptable effect to any ECCS system. Subsystem operability requires a flowpath taking suction from the suppression pool and l j

transfening the water to the spray sparger in the RPV. The leakage assumed with the various 360 degree through wall cracks in the downcomers does not l render the flowpaths inoperable, since the core spray pumps are still capable of delivering design basis flow. Therefore, a change to the Technical Specification i or other Facility Operating License is not required. TS sections 2.0. 3.4.9. 3.4.10, 3.5.1,3.5.2 and bases were reviewed in making this determination.

2. Does the activity make changes to the facility as described in the SAR?

Yes. Although installation of the repair clamps does not involve a change in the manner in which the core spray line responds to design basis loadings, and the repairs evaluated under this 10CFR50.59 are not discussed in the SAR, the

' estimated leakage from the core spray piping in the vessel exceeds the original design allowable for the both the "A" and "B" loops. Therefore, installation of the clamp repair constitutes a change to the facility as described in the SAR.

)CFR50.59 Review. Rev. 0 sHTF REV Modification P00335 Page 3 or 10 The function of the modification is to ensure the structural integrity of the CS downcomer even if the possible defects were to grow to the full circumference of the weld #1 heat affected zone of the sleeve. The modification will also ensure the structural integrity of the downcomers in the event additional cracking develops at weld locations 2 through 4 of Figure 1. The repair clamps the area where the core spray downcomer and the core spray sparger inlet pipe join. The repairs are shown in Figure 2. The upper clamp mechanically grips the downcomer, and bears on the top of the sleeve that attaches the downcomer to the core spray sparger inlet pipe. A rod is used to support and locate the lower clamp from the upper on the larger clamp design and the contact area has been lengthened on the shorter clamp. The lower clamp is centered over the inlet pipe to inlet elbow weld joint. A U-bolt that attaches to the upper clamp provides axial restraint between the downcomer joint collar and the riser elbow, spanning the crack location. No other modification to the CS downcomer piping welds I through 4 will be required.

The maximum leakage evaluated for the 'B' loop of core spray (658 GPM) and the ' A' loop (445 GPM) exceeds the original design allowable of 100 GPM.

However, the leakage margin evaluation is well within margins established by the SAFER /GESTR-LOCA analysis.

UFSAR sections 3.0,6.0,6.5, and 14.6 were reviewed in making this determination.

3. Does the activity make changes to procedures as described in the S AR?

No. The modification does not change any reactor or system operation does not involve any new mode of operation and does not involve any new change /new sequence of events. If the potential cracking grows to a sufficient size, the remaining connector sleeve material will no longer be capable of holding the downcomer to the riser during a core spray system injection. However, lateral restraint will remain. The clamps hold the core spray downcomer and riser together and therefore no change in procedures is required. He review of the UFSAR sections 3.0,6.0,6.5,14.6 determined that the modification will not require a change to a procedure in the UFSAR.

4. Does the activity involve tests or experiments not described in the SAR?

No. The modification involves the installation of clamp hardware on the core spray line downcomer. No tests or experiments are required to validate the

III. SAFETY EVALUATION

.i A. Accident and transient analyses potentially negatively impacted by this change include:

1. ECCS LOCA
2. UFSAR Chapter 14 Transients
3. LOCA-Radiological  ;
4. Main Steamline Break (MLSB)
5. Earthquake l

i In all cases, installing the core spray downcomer clamps has no or negligible effect on these plant safety analyses.

4

1. May the possibility of occurrence of an accident previously evaluated in the SAR be increased?

No. Plant systems and components will be capable of performing their intended functions with the clamp installed. The possibility of occurrence of an accident previously identified in UFSAR section 14.6 is not increased. Clamp installations will not adversely effect any code requirements imposed on the core spray system. The possibility of component failure is not increased. If cracks propagate to 360 degrees, the separate portions of the downcomer are captured and there will be no possibility ofloose parts resulting from the failure. The modification design incorporates provisions (i.e. crimping assembly bolts) to ensure the clamp hardware does not come loose and thus preventing any loose parts concerns.

, 2. May the consequences of an accident previously evaluated in the SAR be increased?

No. Systems and components used to mitigate the (radiological) consequences of the accidents in the UFSAR are not degraded by the modification. All of the events in the Peach Bottom UFS AR were examined to determine if the consequences of any of these events is increased by the installation of the repair clamps. Consequences (i.e. radiological dosed) associated with the design basis

2 PB ECR h(Nh72 REV ?each Bottom. Unit 2 ATTACHMENT PAG ( N or .50.59 Review, Rev. 0 ssi a ngy DEBONE Page 5 of to accidents are evaluated in the UFSAR. The existing core spray downcomer and repair clamps do not function to mitigate the consequences of any UFSAR event except the design basis LOCA event. No UFSAR dose calculation will be impacted by this change. For the design basis LOCA event discussed in the UFSAR, the core spray line and downcomer provide the flow path inside the j 1

RPV for the ECCS flow to the core spray spargers. Maintaining this flow path is 1 required to ensure that core reflooding capability is maintained following the design basis LOCA. This repair design, through its restraint of the joint, ensures the integrity of the core spray downcomers, with 360 degree through-wall cracks in locations from the HAZ below weld I through weld 4 of Figure 1, under DBA conditions.

An assessment of the leakage through the crack in the downcomer coupling sleeve was performed to confirm that this leakage has no significant effect on the existing ECCS analyses. The cumulative leakage for the "A" and "B" core spray loops are 445 GPM and 658 GPM respectively. The greater leakage value for the 'B' loop is based the larger crack openings resulting from the longer clamp geometry. Rese leakage rates are within the margins allowed for the core spray injection under the S AFER/GESTR-LOCA analysis.

The SAFER /GESTR-LOCA analysis demonstrated that 5,000 GPM @ 105 psig (with an associated run out flow of 6,250 GPM @ 0 psig) of core spray flow is sufficient to maintain adequate core cooling. Existing system requirements maintain a pump supply flow of 6,250 GPM @ 105 psig with an associated runout flow of 7,825 GPM at 0 psig per loop. Therefore. the estimated cumulative leakage for each loop remains within the established margins for ECCS-LOCA requirements.

f Variations in piping stresses associated with the additional weight of the repair hardware and with multiple downcomer cracking have been evaluated and found acceptable.

Radiological consequences of the previously identified accidents are not increased. Therefore. is concluded that the repair clamps installation ensures that the consequences of a design basis LOCA will not be increased.

The clamps impose a negligible change to the plant operating conditions, and thus the ECCS-LOCA and transient systems remain valid.

3. May the possibility of an accident of a different type than any previously evaluated in the SAR be created?

1. May the probability of occurrence of a malfunction of equipment "Important l.

No. ne clamp is designed and constructed as a safety related component. No adverse equipment interactions will be created by installing the clamps.

l herefore, the probability of equipment malfunctions is not increased.

The design of the modification assumes the postulated cracks at location from the f HAZ below weld I through weld 4 of Figure I will grow to 360 degree through wall. The installation of the downcomer repairs willlimit the separation between downcomer and riser to 0.062 inch for the "B" loop downcomers and 0.041 inch l for the "A" loop downcomers. This maximum separation results from the temporary cooling of the CS riser relative to the newly installed U-bolt. It is conservatively assumed that the U-bolt is still at 550 degrees F when the CSS

riser is cooled to 310 degrees F. average temperature. by the injected water from j

l l the torus (240 degree F water temperature difference). After a few minutes of l

post LOCA core spray system injection. the riser pipe and U-bolt temperatures will reach an equilibrium. Ilowever, due to anticipated displacement of a loose spool piece of pipe in the multiple crack situation. the total width of the cracks may remain at to 0.062 inch for the "B" loop and 0.041 inch for the "A" loop.

1  ;

2. May the consequences of a malfunction of equipment "Important to Safety" previously evaluated in the SAR be increased?

No. The installation of the clamp ensures that the core spray line, even if cracked, will perform its safety function to ensure adequate core cooling by

limiting separation between the downcomer and riser. The clamps perform l

3 passive functions that do not interfere with any equipment that is used to mitigate J

any abnormal operating occurrence er the radiological consequences of a malfunction described in the UFSAR. Thus, the consequences of a malfunction

of equipment important to safety is not increased.
