[.M **I'^n UNITED STATES j NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION j - WASHINGTON, D. C. 20555 k January 5,1987 Docket No. 50-219 i, LICENSEES: GPU Nuclear Corporation Jersey Central Power and Light Company FACILITY: Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station SUB.1ECT: DECEMBER 10, 1986, MEETING WITH GPU NilCLEAR CORPOPATION (GPI'N1 TO DISCUSS CORROSION OF THE OUTER SURFACE OF THE DRYWELL SHELL

On Wednesday, December 10, 1986, a meeting was held at NRC, Bethesda, Maryland, with GPUN, the licensee, on the potentially severe corrosion of the outer 4

drywell shell, at an elevation just below the downcomers. This is the second meeting with the licensee on this subject. The summary for the first meetino held on December 1, 1986, was issued December 12, 1986. Figures 1 and 2 in Attachment 2 show a vertical cross section of the entire drywell shell and of the region just below the downcomers, including a drainage channel and the sand filled cavity, respectively. The corrosion was measured in the outer shell exposed to this sand filled cavity.

Attachment 1 is the list of the participants that attended the meeting.

Attachment 2 contains three figures of the Oyster Creek drywell and the meeting notice issued for this meeting. Attachment 3 contains the handout from the licensee for its presentation. The handout is arranged in the order of the licensee's presentation. The following is a sumary of the significant items discussed and the actions, if any, taken or proposed.

This second meeting was also for an information exchange between the licensee and the staff. The licensee's agenda for the meeting is in Attachment 3.

The licensee began its presentation with a brief background of the problem with the corrosion of the drywell including the data the licensee provided in

'"$$ the first meeting on December 1, 1986. The licensee then discussed the 20

~

additional ultrasonic testing (UT1 measurements made on the shell and the goals I and basis for selecting locations for cutting the seven cores from the drywell

$$ shell. The additional UT measurements were in bays 5, 7, and 19 in 7 x 7 g arrays at the core plug sites and in two trenches cut into the drywell concrete

m floor to expose the part of the sand cavity which extended beneath the floor.

Figure 3 in Attachment 2 shows the plan view of the drywell floor with the 10

[o bays, one in front of each downcomer. The core borings indicated the UT o- measurements were accurate except for the UT indications of the deep pits in

- @M bays 5 and 15. The coring and additional UT measurements at an angle showed 2g these " pits" were inclusions in a solid plate. The inclusions reflected the UT sound waves.

The observations made after each of the seven corings are given in Attachment 3.

i The sample number gives the sequence of the cutting and tho bay in which the cutting was done. Sample 1-19C was the first cutting and it was done in bay 19 and in location C with respect to the downcomer. The letters A to D are shown with respect to the downcomer in the figure on page 4 of Attachment 3.

The licensee showed the staff phntographs of the drilling tool for cutting plugs from the shell, the first three. holes cut and the trenches cut into the concrete floor.

The licensee explained what analyses are to be done by itself, General Electric (GE) and by a Dr. C. Pather at York College and the consultations that will be made with the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) and 1.ehigh I!niversity. GE is also to assist in the UT measurements by using a system to develop a base line for future UT measurements.

The licensee discussed the tables of core sample visual examinations and core sample thickness evaluations which are in Attachment 3. The pre-removed thicknesses are the UT measurements. The sand in the areas of general wastage was damp and compacted. The sand in the area of minimal or no corrosion was dry or slightly damp and loose, or space existed between the sand and the steel.

The licensee stated that these examinations were done to characterize the quality of the surface of each bay.

The licensee then discussed its analysis of the drywell drain water leachates from the sand and from the " insulation" on the shell. The " insulation" is the Firebar-D or foamed asbestos fiber magnesite cement discussed in the first meeting. The table showing the licensee's analyses is in Attachment 3. The analyses show chlorides and sulfates which accelerate corrosion.

The table of the licensee's preliminary assessment is given in Attachment 3.

Microbial-induced corrosion is a possible contributor to the problem as the licensee found bacteria in the sand. The preliminary results of the bacteriological studies are given in a table also in Attachment 3. The licensee's preliminary assessment is the following:

o Isolated low thickness readings are a result of oxide stringers in the base metal. These inclusions are non-injurious.

o Areas where sand is dry do not show corrosion.

o Ultrasonic testing accurately assesses extent of damage, o Combination of UT "D" (or direct) Meter and "A" (or angle) scan provide adequate assessment of plate inclusions.

o Analytical results indicate C1 and SO can be leached from Firebar-D.

4 o Microbial-induced corrosion is a possibility.

The staff requested that the licensee discuss its ground potential measurements.

The licensee stated that its neasurements between the sand and the steel shell and between the drainage charnel from the sand cavity and ground showed no potential. There is not a ta'o le on this in Attachment 3.

This completed the first part of the meeting. The second part is on the licensee's structural evaluations on the damaged drywell shell. To begin its presentation, the licensee discussed the structural criteria for the shell to be considered sound. The licensee discussed the equivalent plate thickness for a damaged plate and the stability considerations #or the damaged shell.

These are given in Attachment 3.

The licensee stated the drywell was designed for the dead weight (DW), for water flooded to the 75' elevation, for the design basis accident (DBA) conditions and for the operatino basis earthouake (OBE1 loads. This is the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASMEi Code level A and R loads which is more conservative than level C. Level C includes the safe shutdown earthquake (SSE1 loads but has higber allowables than level A and B. The licensee stated the allowable stress criteria are local membrane stresses (P1) of 2E,875 psi and membrane stress plus discontinuity stresses (Pl+Q) of 57,500 psi. The local membrane stress is the limiting stress.

The licensee explained its method to determine the eouivalent plate thickness of the damaged shell bays over the sand cavity. The displacement half wave length calculated by the licensee for a sphere representing the drywell shell is about 30" arc length. The licensee averaged the wastage of the shell in the sand cavity over twice that arc length or 60". The mean thickness remaining calculated for bay 19 was 0.871" and the minimum reasured UT thickness was 0.741".

The stability considerations for the damaged shell being considered by the licensee are given below and in Attachment 3:

o Interior bracing and stiffening at the embedment (concrete floor and sand) will prevent buckling.

o For modelling purposes, consider a uniform sphere 1.154" thick as equivalent to the braced and reinforced drywell.

o Buckling occurs at about 3 Sm and only then is the buckling wave length approximately equal to the meridional span of the wastage, o Maximum compressive load produces about 1 S,.

o Puckling is not physically realizable and is not a technical issue.

The licensee presented an analytical model of the reduced thickness of the damaged shell. The picture is shown on page 21 in Attachment 3. The reduced thickness is viewed as a notch in a spherical shell and the sand acts as a compressive spring. The assumed thicknesses are given in the picture.

, - _m.J _q ._

For a notch of only 0.7" and a nominal shell thickness of 1.154" per the shell design, there are nine figures in Attachment 3 giving the stress intensities, longitudinal stresses, circumferential stresses, and radial pressure and deflection along the meridian as a function of the elevation through the sand cavity. These figures are for (1) the sand acting as a spring ar.d (2) without the sand (w/o sand). The' figures list the maximum stress values in psi and the assumptions of drywell pressure (P, psi), maximum drywell temperature (T Max, 'F) and shell thickness (thick, inch) on the bottom of each page. The stresses are within the allowables. The sand, as expected, reduces the stress intensities at the interface between the lower part of the sand cavity and the pinning of the drywell shell by the concrete pad. The sand in the cavity provides a transition region between the lower, fixed or pinned base of the shell which is in concrete and the upper, unrestrained shell. The upper shell is not attached to the outer biological concrete shield. The sand reduces stresses in the shell in the region of the sand cavity by acting as a spring as discussed above.

The licensee's conclusion from this calculation was that a notch as low as 0.7" thick could be acceptable to the ASME Code for the Oyster Creek design. Also, the governing allowables are the local membrane stresses.

.The licensee ended its presentation with a discussion on its plan to resolve this issue. This is the last page in Attachment 3. The licensee explained that this requires additional analyses which have to be completed. As shown on page 32 of Attachment 3, the decision may be to keep Oyster Creek down in the Cycle 11R outage and repair the shell or modify the sand cavity.

The staff did not disagree with the licensee's presentation of the structural criteria for the damaged drywell shell and its plan to resolve this issue with the staff. At this time, the licensee stated it is still analyzing the damaged shell, but, as soon as it completes its analyses and has decided on a restart and/or repair program for Oyster Creek, it will have another meeting with the staff. This will be arranged through the NRC Project Manager and, the licensee stated, it could be as early as December 19, 1986.
