SECOND INTERIM REPORT Description of Deficiency TVA's Civil Engineering Branch (CEB) Engineering Procedure (EP) 21.12, revision 2, Table 5.4-5, and Bellefonte Engineering Project (BLEP) drawing 3BT0001-00-01 list valve and pipe fitting adjustment factors for insulation weight calculations. The factor is multiplied by the weight per foot of pipe insulation to yield an insulation weight value per valve or fitting. The analysts used these factors and applied the results as a weight per foot in the analyses. This he.s created some unconservative results.

Interim Progress TVA is still evaluating the subject deficiency.
