2 INTRODUCTION These ReliefRequests are being submitted as part of the close-out for the 2nd Ten-Year Interval whici. was performed in accordance with the ASME Section XI Code Edition 1980 up to and including Winter Addenda 1981. The requests for relief enclosed are' submitted pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a (a)(3)(i),10 CFR 50.55a (a)(3)(ii),10 CFR 50.55a (g)(5)(iii) and/or in accordance with an approved ReliefRequest as stipulated in a Safety-Evaluation (SE) by the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation. The requests, along with their specific regulatory basis, are described in detail along with supporting technical discussion, documentation and referenced SE. Included in the Tables and Enclosures are welds examined during the 2nd Ten-Year Interval (7/85 - 9/97) whose inspectiom have mal met the code required coverage as defined in Code Case N-460, Alternative Examination Coverage for Class I and Class 2 Welds, along with sketches and/or drawings that depict the limiting condition. Also included are relief requests for pressure testing which are submitted for pressure tests that were not performed during the 2nd period of the 2nd Ten-Year Interval. There are two requests for relief for (1) ASME Code Category B-K-1, Attachment Welds, Item No. B10.10 and (2) ASME Code Category B-G-1, RPV Flange Ligaments, Item No. B6.40, that do not meet Program B,3rd period requirements and a resubmittal for relief which supersedes the initial request from the containment inspection rule ASME Section XI,1992 Edition and Addenda, Subsection IWE/IWL, Repair / Replacement activities.

1 L Reliefis requested in accordance with the provisions of 10 CFR 50.55a (a)(3)(iii) from the full -  !

! Code-required extent of volumetric examination for the following circumferential welds in the  !

L Reactor Vessel Bottom Head listed in Table 1. This reliefis also submitted in accordance_with the  ;

>NRC's review of 2nd Ten-Year Inservice Inspection Program and Requests for Relief, Dated October 27,1987, Docket No. 50-333, Relief Request (R14).

!~

Examination Requirements j ASME Section XI,1980 Edition through Winter 1981 Addenda, requires 100% volumetric

! examination of the weld plus %t of the adjacent base metal on each side of the weld crown.

L Basis for Relief Inspections of the Code-required accessible length of one weld was conducted on the RPV l

Bottom Head Circumferential Welds with limitations based on restricted access. Access to the 8

L area is limited to four 18" diameter manways 90 apart in the vessel support skirt. In adddition, I t

y the one hundred and thirty-seven (137) control rod drives and forty-three (43) in-core monitor instrumentation penetrations present extensive interference. The positioning and spacing 'of these components prevent an inspector from physically being able to reach them and allows access to e very limited portion the welds. There is also interference from the vesse.: support skirt which is welded to the bottom head on the lower portion of weld VC-BH-1-2. This combined with the curvature of the bottom head and the Bio-shield wall narrowing in this area precludes access.

Permanent vessel insulation and limited storage space for those insulation panels which require removal is extremely limited because of the small size of the manways.

Pronosed Alternative Fumminations L 1. No additional volumetnc exammations will be performed. The RPV welds have been  ;

examined to the maximum extent practical from the outside surface.

2. A visual examination (VT-2) is performed in conjunction with the pressure testing conducted on these components every refuel outage (with no evidence of leakage detected) in accordance with IWA-5000 and IWB-5000, which provides reasonable assurance of component integrity.

L RPV Pressure Retaining Welds addressed by this Relief Request are listed in Table 1. Drawings

[i highlighting component design, configuration ofinterferences, and limitations associated with the examinations are included in Enclosure 1.

(]

Reliefis requested in accordance with the provisions of 10 CFR 50.55a (a)(3)(iii) from the full Code-required extent of volumetric examination for the following Full Penetration RPV Nozzle

~~

Welds listed in Table 2.

l

! Funmination Reauirements l ASME Section XI,1980 Edition through Winter 1981 Addenda, requires 100% volumetric l

examination of the weld plus % the wall thickness of adjacent base metal on each side of the weld. l Basis for Relief Complete inspection of the Code-required volume is not possible based on restricted access l caused by interference from permanent structures such as non-removable vessel insulation, instrumentation lines / penetrations and other nozzles. Detailed measurements of these interferences were taken for the nozzles, which is typical for a given configuration (i.e.: N1(s), N2 (s), N4 (s), and N5(s)). The examination data detailing restricted access associated with the N-9 nozzle does not have the necessary detail to calculate the exact coverage achieved. In this case an l

estimate of examination coverage is used, based on the examination data sketch generated during i the inspection.

Pyoposed Alternative Examinations

1. No additional volumetric examinations will be performed. The RPV nozzle welds have been examined to the maximum extent practical from the outside surface.
2. A visual inspection (VT-2) is performed in conjunction with the pressure testing conducted on these components every refuel outage (with no leakage detected) in accordance with IWA-5000 and IWB-5000, which provides reasonable assurance of component integrity.

RPV Nozzle Welds addressed by this Relief Request are listed in Table 2. Drawings, sketches and the calculated volume of coverage in Enclosure 2 illustrate the restricted conditions encountered that limit examination coverage.

Item No: B5.130 Piping Nominal Pipe Size 2 4"(Dissimilar Metal Butt Welds)

Reliefis requested in accordance with the provisions of 10 CFR 50.55a (a)(3)(iii) from the full Code-required extent of volumetric examination for the following Pressure Retaining Dissimilar Metal Welds listed in Table 3.

Eummination Requirements ASME Section XI,1980 Edition through Winter 1981 Addenda, requires the lower %t of the weld be examined volumetrically up to and including adjacent base metal %" from the weld toe on either side of the weld.

Basis for Relief Complete inspection of the Code-required volume is not possible based cn restricted access due to the component's design. These welds represent the tie in of the RHR system to the Recirculation System on Loops A and B. The configuration of these welds are Valve-to-Valve, and Valve-to-Tee. The configuration of Welds 24-10-143,24-10-142,24-10-131, and 24-10-130 are not conducive to conventional ultrasonic examination techniques. This is attributed to I dramatic thickness transitions on the outside and inside surfaces. On-going modifications to equipment and ultrasonic techniques currently being used are improving the testing parameters i

presently utilized to examine these components. Inspections of these components are based on calibration mock-up blocks of the same configuration and materials as the welds. These l calibration mock-up blocks are designed with side drilled (SDH), end drilled (EDH) calibration holes along with numerous ID notches located within the heat effective zones, base material, buttered material and the weld. Supplemental liquid penetrant examinations were performed on these components which exceeds those required by Code Category B-F, Table 2500-1. An L evaluation of testing results utilizing current ultrasonic technology has deemed these exams as L best effort. The inspections conducted on Welds ::4-10-132,24-10-144 both (Elbow-to-Valve) l and 10-14-481 are considered limited examinations employing industry acceptable inspection techniques. Weld 24-10-144 does not have a Umited exam notation included on the inspection data but is clearly a one-sided exam and therefore is being submitted for relief.

Examination coverage of VC-SKC (vessel skirt weld) includes 100% of the OD surface being examined using the MT method and a supplemental examination using remote visual equipment (VT-1) was performed on 100% of the inside surface. Access to the inside surface of I weld VC SKC is restricted due to the component's design. Drawings of vessel skirt weld VC-

            . SKC are in Enclosure 6 which highlight the inspection surfaces and restricted access caused by design. Examinatbn coverage of Stabilizer-1,2,3, and 4 included 35% of these welds being inspected by MT and the remaining 65% being inspected by VT-1. Components addressed by this Relief Request are listed in Table 6. Drawings and sketches that illustrate the restricted conditions encountered that limit access to th Vessel krt Weld and Stabilizer Brackets are included in (O ,/      Endosr te 6.

Reliefis requested in accordance with the provisions of 10 CFR 50.55a (a)(3)(iii) from the full l Code-required extent of surface and/or volumetric examination for Circumferential Welds listed in Table 7.

Examination Reauirement ASME Section XI,1980 Edition through Winter 1981 Addenda, requires the lower %t of the weld examined volumetrically up to and including adjacent base metal %" from the weld toe on either side of the weld. Surface examinations requires the weld inspection and includes %" on either side of the weld toe. Basis for Relief A C Complete inspection of the Code-required volume for components listed in Table 7 is not possible based on the restricted access caused by component design, support structures, and/or other interferences. Examinations performed on the majority of these components have detailed measurements oflimitations, restrictions and interferences, along with the estimated computed volume ofinspection coverage. Some examinations performed during the beginning of the inspection interval do not have the detailed measurements necessary to estimate the percentage of exam coverage. Most of the cases in which this occurs, the examiner notes a one-sided exam was performed and others state limited exam. When a one-sided exam is recorded or a limited exam is confirmed as a one-side exam (no other restrictions) through drawing verification, a 50% exam coverage credit is taken. If a limited or restricted exam is noted but not enough information exists to derive a percentage of coverage, it will be so noted. Proposed Alternative

1. No additional volumetric and/or surface examinations will be performed on these welds.

The components listed in this relief request have been examined to the maximum extent practical.

2. A visual inspection (VT-2) is performed in conjunction with the pressure testing j conducted on these components every refuel outage (with no leakage detected) in lf%J )

Frarninstion Reauirements ASME Code Section XI,1980 Edition through Winter 1981 Addenda requires examinations to . include the welded attachment of piping required to be examined by Examination Category B-J, and includes essentially 100% of the weld length, for those attachments whose base material i design thickness is 5/8 in. and greater. j 1 Basin For Relief Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a (a)(3)(I) During the review of the JAF 2nd Ten-Year Inservice examinations for Category B-K-1 interval closcout, eight (8) integrally welded piping attachments were not examined out of a total required i population of fifly-four (54). l Reactor Recirculation System - Seventeen (17) integrally welded attachments were examined, l

   - (accepted by examination for continued service), out of a total population of twenty (20), which          J provides an overall system percentage completion of 85% for Examination Category B-K-1.

Main Steam System - Twenty-five (25) integrally welded attachments were examined, (accepted l by examination for continued service), out of a total population of forty-two (42), which provides an overall system percentage completion of 60% for Examination Category B-K-1. Overall Status for the Interval - Forty-seven (47) nonexempt integrally welded piping attachments i out of a total nonexempt population of fifly-four (54) Category B-K-1 components in all of the Class 1 Systems were examined during JAF 2nd Inservice Inspection Interval, for a total percentage examined of 87%. All other Class 1 systems meet ASME Section XI 1980 Edition, Winter 81 Addenda criteria for Program B requirements in it's entirety. ) 1 The ASME B&PVC recognized that the extent ofexamination for B-K-1 integrally welded j attachments by earlier code editions was impractical. To address this issue ASME issued Code Case N-509, which is pending approval by USNRC through Reg. Guide 1.147 Rev.12. If Code Case N-509 was applied to the two (2) systems above the percentages examined would far exceeds the 10% examination requirements of the Code Case. The extent of examinations performed, coupled with the system pressure tests, will provide an acceptable level of quality and

  - safety.

Code-required extent of volumetric examination for RHR Heat Exchanger Pressure Vessel Circumferential Weld # C3-B listed in Table 12.

Ermmination Reauirements ] ASME Section XI requires 100% volumetric examination of this weld once per interval. l Basis For Relief l Complete inspection of the Code-required volume is not possible based on restricted access l caused by interference due to the close proximity of the vessel flange bolting and the N4B nozzle. Drawings and sketches which illustrate the restricted conditions encountered that limit examination coverage are included in Enclosure 12. Examination Alternative j 1. No additional volumetric examinations will be performed on these welds. The component i l listed in this relief request has been examined to the maximum extent practical. l l

2. A visual inspection (VT-2) was performed during the pressure testing which is conducted on this component every refuel outage (no leakage detected) in accordance with IWA-l 5000 and IWC-5000, which provides reasonable assurance of component integrity.

y l l l !O Item No. C1.30 Tubesheet-to-Shell Weld (RHR Heat Exchanger) i' Reliefis requested in accordance with the provisions of 10 CFR 50.5$a (a)(3)(ii) fr'om the Code ~ required extent of volumetric examination for Pressure Retaining Welds in Pressure Vessels for the RHR Heat Exchanger Tubesheet-to-Shell Welds # C2-A & C2-B. Fummination Reauirements ASME Section XI requires 100% volumetric examination of this weld once per interval. Basis for Relief Relief from the Code-required volume was requested in the initial 2nd Ten-Year Inservice Inspection Program submittal (Reference NRC Safety Evaluation, dated October 27,1987, Relief l Request (R15). The NRC denied this application for relief based on the possibility of disassembly I and inspection during the Interval. The RHR Heat Exchangers have not been disassembled during the 2nd Ten-Year Interval and, therefore, the Authority is re-submitting this request for relief from the Code-required extent of examination for the Tubesheet-to-Shell Welds which was a part of the original Inservice Inspection Program's 2nd Ten-Year submittal. Fummination Alternative

1. No additional volumetric examinations will be performed on these welds. The components listed in this relief request have been examined to the maximum extant practical.
2. A visual inspection (VT-2) was performed during the pressure test which is conducted on i this component every refuel outage (no leakage detected) in accordance with IWA-5000 and IWC-5000.

Pumns. and Valves Item No. C3.10 Pressure Vessels (Integrally Welded Attacaments) Item No. C3.20 Piping (Integrally Welded Attachments) , Item No. C3.10 Pressure Vessels (Integrally Welded Attachments) Reliefis requested in accordance with the provisions of 10 CFR 50.55a (a)(3)(ii) from the full' Code-required extent of surface examination for the RHR Heat Exchanger Pressure Vessels (Integrally Welded Attachments) listed in Table 15 , j h=i== tion Reauiremegt i ASME Section XI requires 100% surface examination of this weld once per interval. Basisfor. Relief Complete inspection of the Code-required surface area utilizing a surface inspection method was not possible based on restricted accessibility due to the interferences of design. These welds are support lugs which are part of the rigid support structure that stabilizes the upper portion of the RHR Heat Exchanger. The lower portion of these lugs are restricted by an attached structural O angle member frame which extends beyond the bottom edge of the lugs limiting access to these areas. This limiting condition restricts the access necessary to perform a magnetic particle inspection and the ability to use surface preparation equipment needed to prepare for liquid penetrant testing. In order to obtain full Code examination coverage on these components, it would require removal of the structural angle members and increase radiological exposure which would constitute a hardship and unusual difficulty for the sole purpose of providing access to obtain additional examination coverage. Partial code required coverage was obtained examining components SUP-1 A, SUP-2A, SUP-3 A, and SUP-4A using magnetic particle, liquid penetrant surface inspection methods and visual examination (VT-1). A visual inspection (VT-2) was performed during the pressure test (no_ leakage detected) which is conducted on these components eveny refuel outage in accordance with IWA-5000 and IWC-5000. Drawings and sketches which illustrate the restricted conditions encountered that limit examination coverage are included in Enclosure 15. Proposed Alternative Nmination

1. A supplemental visual inspection (VT-1) was performed on the inaccessible areas (lower portion) of these welds with no adverse or reportable conditions observed.
2. No additional examinations will be performed on these welds. The components listed in this relief request have been examined to the maximum extent practical.

f~~h v Item No. C3.20 Piping (Integrally Welded Attachments) Reliefis requested in accordance with the provisions of 10 CFR 50.55a (a)(3)(iii) from the full Code-required extent of surface examination for Piping (Integrally Welded Attachinents) listed in ~ Table 15A. Emmabation Reauirements ASME Section XI requires 100% of required areas of each welded attachment. Basis for Relief Complete inspection of the Code-required surface volume for components listed in Table 15A is not possible based on restricted accessibility caused by interferences due to design limitations  ; and/or support stmetures encountered when employing the surface inspection methods. Drawings  ; and sketches which illustrate the restricted conditions encountered that limit examination coverage are included in Enclosure 15A. j Proposed Alternative Ernminations [] w/

1. No additional surface examinations will be performed. These welds have been examined to the maximum extent practical.
2. A visual inspection (VT-2) was performed during the pressure test (no leakage detected) I which is conducted on these components every refuel outage in accordance with IWA-5000 and IWC-5000.

ASME SECTION XI { Ei,T/flyiContainment Renair & Renlacement Rule The Authority submitte[a request for relief from the primary containment repair and replaceme t provisions in th?.1992 Edition af ASME Section XI, Subsection IWE on November 26,1996 d (Reference 1); The NkC issued Information Notice 97-29 (Reference 2) to provide guidance to ) licensees concerning the content of these relief reguests. Subsequently, the NRC requested i additional information regarding the JAF relief request (Reference 3). The following information  ; supplements Reference 1 and provides the information requested by Reference 3. Suppleisnt 12 JAF Relief Request Regarding Implementation [j- Schedule for Coretahment Repair / Replacement Requirements Funlanation of Hardrh:n Impa.ad Bv Final Rule l The Authority initially requested (Reference 1) the implementation of the repair and replacement j provisions of the 1992 Section XI, Subsections IWE and IWL be deferred by one year from September 9,1996 to September 9,1997. A relief from the NRC to defer the implementation of i the Code provisions would allow the Authority sufficient time to provide appropriate resources to

train necessary personnel and implement a containment repair / replacement program.

1 i The JAF ISI program for Cla'ss 1,2, and 3 components and their supports is based on ASME !p Section XI,1980 Edition with Addenda through Winter 1981, The classification of systems and j their components is based on requirements in 10 CFR 50.55 (a) and Regulatory Guide 1.26. The i 1992 Edition including the Addenda IWE-1220 (d) requires that all piping, pumps, and valves that l are part of the containment system, or which penetrate or are attached to the containment vessel, i be examined in accordance with the rules oflWB or IWC. This would require the portion of i piping systems (up to the first isolation on either side of the containment) that penetrates the

containment be upgraded to either ISI Class 1 or Class 2 for the purpose of examination for any i repair / replacement activities. Implementation of the rule requires
identification and re-

+ classification of the applicabb ISI boundaries for engineering, design and planning personnel 1 (drawing development, preparation, and issuance); revision of applicable plant programs and i procedures related to maintenance and modification work packages preparation; and review -and/or revision of all work packages prior to the start of the Fall 1996 refueling outage to

determine the potential impact of the activity relative to repair and replacement rules implemented j by the Code in Subsections IWE and IWL. Since the rule became effective on September 9,

 ! 1996, enough time was not available to implement these new provisions prior to the start of the !- Fall 1996 refueling outage. Similarly, the ISI program defines the VT-1 and VT-3 examinations and includes all factors l' necessary to qualify the examiners and assure the examinations are performed to the highest l quality levels (in accordance with the ASME Section XI,1980 Edition up to and including the j 1981 Winter Addenda and 1980 Edition of SNT-TC-1 A). The imposition of 1992 Code i requirements (ANSI /ASNT CP-189,1991 Edition) for containment would necessitate a separate administrative program including procedures, certification tests and record keeping requirements, ] 1 DrrERVAL. DOC July 14,1997 Page 78 of 80 y which would merely parallel the existing prcyam v' tith no benefit to qualityc The existing program is the same as used on the reactor veel r.rrd other Class I components, and continues to prove effective. Implementing and maintainitg trio separate programs for similar inspections is a significant burden at this time to the Autheity,ind would not provide a compensatory increase in the level of quality and safety. The Authority understands that the lack of pr$perly qualified inspectors is an industry-wide situation. Although the qualification of the authorized inspector is the responsibility of the authorized inspection agency, the Authority has encouraged Arkwright (the third party inspection agency for FitzPatrick) to obtain any additional qualification that would be required to implement Subsections IWE and IWL. In the interim, the Authority will continue to address any , containment repair (or restoration) issues in accordance with its corrective action program. Experienced individuals will be utilized to inspect, evaluate, and perform the required . repair / replacement activities. JAF entered a refueling outage at the end of October 1996. The date of the final rule, and implementation date, for the containment repair / replacement provisions was September 9,1996. A revision to the FitzPatrick ASME Section XI Repair / Replacement program prior to the outage to incorporate the provisions of the 1992 ASME Section XI, Subsections IWE and IWL would have had a significant negative impact on the outage schedule. A significant diversion of resources would have been required for: reviewing all outage related modifications and maintenance repair / replacement activities and the thousands of associated outage work package.s p V (many were initiated prior to the issuance of the rule change) for potential impact of the planned activities relative to repair and replacement rules implemented by the Code in Subsections 1 IWE/IWL; training of maintenance, engineering and design personnel; training and qualification ofNDE personnel; review, preparation and incorporation of a repair / replacement program to the 1992 Code requirements; and review and revision ofISI class boundary documents (drawing development, preparation and issuance). These activities would have required significant resources, but would not have resulted in a compensatory increase in the level of quality and safety. The Authority has implemented the following actions toward the development and implementation of a containment repair / replacement program in accordance with the provisions of the 1992 Section XI, Subsections IWE/IWL a responsible individual from the engineering programs group (ISI Containment Coordinator), QA personnel and civil / structural engineers have attended a training class on the subject Code requirements: action items have been generated and assigned to responsible individuals to incorporate the requirements ofIWE/IWL into the JAF ISI program, and to develop a containment repair / replacement program by September 1997 which is contingent on the approval of this Relief Request; and a general walkdown and video taping of the inside exposed surfaces of the containment is planned in preparation for the general visual inspection to be performed prior to September 2001, as required under IWE-1231.

The examination requirements for containment reinted repair / replacement activities in many cases are actually more stringent than are required under the provisions of 1992 IWE (VT-1 or VT-3). Therefore, deferral of the l implementation date for the repair and replacement provisions of the 1992 ASME Code will not compromise the structural integrity of the containment, and is consistent with maintaining the continued health and safety of the public.
