APPLICABILITY BASES l Soecification 4.0.6 establishes the Surveillance Requirements for inspection  !

of the steam generator tubes to ensure that the structural integrity of this i portion of the RCS will be maintained. The program for inservice inspection of steam generator tubes is based on a modification of Regulatory Guide 1.83.

Revision 1. Inservice inspection of steam generator tubing is essential in order to maintain surveillance of the conditions of the tubes in the event that there is evidence of mechanical damage or progressive degradation due to design, manufacturing errors, or inservice conditions that lead to corrosion. l Inservice inspection of steam generator tubing also provides a means of l characterizing the nature and cause of any tube degradation so that corrective measures can be taken.

Selected tubes in the preheater section of each D4 and D5 steam generator have been modified to correct the tube vibration degradation phenomenon experienced by certain Westinghouse steam generators. The modification consisted of expanding these tubes in the vicinity of the support plates and is designed to limit the amplitude of vibration. These expanded tubes are subject to a special inspection whenever the steam generators are opened for inservice eddy current testing.

The plant is expected to be operated in a manner such that the secondary coolant will be maintained within those chemistry limits found to result in negligible corrosion of the steam generator tubes. If the secondary coolant chemistry is not maintained within these limits, localized corrosion may likely result in stress corrosion cracking. The extent of cracking during plant operation would be limited by the limitation of steam generator tube leakage between the Reactor Coolant System and the Secondary Coolant System (reactor to-secondary leakage = 500 gallons per day per steam generator and a total leakage of 1 GPH to all steam generators). Cracks having a reactor to secondary leakage less than this limit during operation will have an adequate margin of safety to withstand the loads imposed during normal operation and by postulated accidents. Operating plants have demonstrated that reactor to secondary leakage of 500 gallons per day per steam generator can readily be detected by radiation monitors of steam generator blowdown.

Leakage in excess of this limit will require plant shutdown and an unscheduled inspection, during which the leaking tubes will be located and plugged.

An F*1tubefdoesinot have(to'be plugged,:provided the remainder:of thel tube within and above. the:F* distance does _not meet the plugging limit criteria.

eddy current inspection, procedure;.

Wastage type defects are unlikely with proper chemistry treatment of the secondary coolant. However. even if a defect should develop in service, it will be found during scheduled inservice steam generator tube examinations.

Plugging will be required for all tubes with imperfections exceeding the plugging limit of 40% of the tube nominal wall thickness. Steam generator tube inspections of operating plants have demonstrated the capability to reliably detect degradation that has penetrated 20% of the original tube wall thickness.
