'j WASHINGTON, D.C. Spe86 eeM 1une 24, 1999 Mr. G. R. Peterson Site Vice President Catawba Nuclear Station Duke Energy Corporation 4600 Concord. Road York, South Carolina 29745-9635 SUBJL".T:
CATAWRA NUCLEAR STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 RE: CLOSURE OF THE REVIEW OF THE RESPONSE TO GENERIC LETTER 92-01, REVISION 1, SUPPLEMENT 1, " REACTOR VESSEL STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY" (TAC NOS MA0534 AND MA0535) i
Dear Mr. Peterson:
On May 19,1995, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff issued Generic Letter 92-01, Revision 1, Supplement 1 (GL 92-01, Rev.1, Supp.1), " Reactor Vessel Structural Integrity," to holders of operating licenses, in issuing the GL, we required addressees to:
(1) identify, collect and report any new data pertinent to the analysis of structural integrity of the reactor pressure vessels (RPVs) at their nuclear plants, and j
i (2) assess the impact of that data on their RPV integrity analyses relative to the requirements i
of Sections 50.60 and 50.61 to Part 50 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Reaulations (10 CFR 50.60 and 10 CFR 50.61), and to the requirements of Appendices G and H to Part 50 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Reaulations (Appendices G and H to 10 CFR Part 50).
On August 16,1995, you submitted your initial response to GL 92-01, Rev.1, Supp.1, and provided the requested information relative to the structural integrity assessments for Catawba, Units 1 and 2. We evaluated your response to GL 92-01, Rev.1, Supp.1, and provided our conclusion relative to your response on July 29,1996, in your August 16,1995, letter, you also committed to take additional action to locate "all data relevant to the determination of RPV integrity...." You determined that the data which was submitted for Catawba, Unit 1 did riot require any revisions because there was no new data available for Rotterdam Dockyard-fabricated vessel materials. We reviewed your data for Catawba, Unit 1 and agreed with the information that you had submitted. In your response of August 16,1995, you also indicated that the vessel integrity data for Catawba, Unit 2 were at least as conservative as the data provided in Combustion Engineering (CE) Topical Report CE NPSD-1039, Revision 2, and CE i g NPSD-1119, Revision 1, which provided "all relevant data" for CE-fabricated vessel materials.
We also reviewed your data for Catawba, Unit 2 and verified that the data in your August 16, 1995, submittal was either equivalent to or more conservative than the data contained in the subject CE reports.

As a result of our review of your responses to GL 92-01, Revision 1 and GL 92-01, Rev.1, Supp.1, we have revised the information in the Reactor Vessel Integrity Database (RVID) and are releasing it as RVID Version 2. The new database diskettes are posted on the world. wide-web at a location tyhich is linked to the NRC home page (http://www.nrc. gov /NRR/RVID/index.html). We recommend that you review this information.
If we do not receive comments by September 1,1999, we will assume that the data entered into the RVID are acceptable for your plant. No additional information is necessary with regard to the structural integrity assessments. Future submittals on P-T limits, pressurized thermal shock or upper shelf energy should reference the most current information.
This closes our efforts in regard to the above TAC numbers. We appreciate your efforts in regard to this matter.
