Requested Completion Date: June 1,1983 Description of Task: Review of the Preservice Inspection Progrta and Relief Requests Review Status: Applicant's Response Pequired In accordance with a request from the Project !!anager, the Inservice Inspection Section, fiaterials Engineering 3 ranch, Division of Engineering, has reviewed the Preservice Inspection (PSI) Progran and relief recuests submitted by the applicant in a letter dated Pay 3, 1903.

Since a Comission decision regarding issuance of an OL is scheduled for August 1983, the Project lianager requested that we identify all out-standing issues regarding the PSI Progran and subnit an SSER input before June 15, 1933. The resolution of the outstanding issues was discussed on !!ay 13,1983 with the applicant, Project l'anager, MTEB reviewer and COE consultants from IflEL. We have precared the attached recuest for additional infomation (RAI) so that the applicant can provide sufficient infomation for us to complete the review.

l WASHINGTON PUBLIC POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM WASHINGTON NUCLEAR PROJECT NO. 2 REVIEW OF THE PRESERVICE INSPECTION PROGRAM Inservice Inspection Section Materials Engineering Branch l

1.

Section 6.0 of the WNP-2 Preservice Inspection (PSI) Program Plan (paragraph 6.2) states that Class 2 piping with wall thickness less

)

than or equal to \\" will be examined in accordance with the ASME Code, 1977 Edition, Summer 1978 Addenda.

In Section 7.0 of the WNP-2 PSI Program Plan (Page 7-30) and in letters dated January 13, 1982, March 5, 1982, and April 22, 1983, the Applicant outlined the position that the entire SOV system at WNP-2 should be excluded from preservice and inservice volumetric and/or surface examination.

The Applicant requested a plant specific review based on the Applicant's conclusion that a crack in the piping system would result in con:rol rod in-l sertion and sufficient makeup capacity is available to mitigste the effects of a pipe break.

Generic Letter 81-35 dated August 31, 1981 recommends that the inspection for the SDV system meet the require-l ments for ASME Code Class 2 piping.

l l

- Our review of the SDV isometric drawings in the Applicant's sub-mittals dated September 1,1982 ana February 3,1983 indicates that the SDV system contains approximately 94 welds in piping greater than 4 inches in diameter.

Section XI of the ASME Code requires a surface examination of the SDV systen welds because of the design wall thickness.

It is our position that a preservice examinations of the SDV welcs must be performed based on either (1) the requirement of 10 CFR 50.55a(g)(2) er (2) an approved alternative program in accordance with 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(2).

We have reached the conclusion that an alternative program consisting of a preservice volumetric examination of 10% of the.ASME Ccde Class 2 welds subject to examination would provice supericr results in determining the overall

~

structural integrity of the welds than the Section XI required surface examination of all of the welds.

Provide a discussion of your intentions concerning our position on PSI cIf SDV system piping welds.

f 2.

On page 8 of PSI Program Plan Volume 4, you state tne following; "ISI surface preparations resulted in several hundred cases of mininum wall thickness being violated.

All piping which had.been orepared for ISI has nad the wall thickness of each seld checked.

The result.s of this program were snalyzed by tne Arenitect-Enginesr.

Some of the welds recuired rework which was done by tne Section III piping installatica con-tractor.

All reworked welds were reexamined.'

w a

- Provide a discussion of the program to examine, analyze and/or repair piping welds that were prepared for inservice inspection and found to be less than the nominal wall thickness.

Confirm that all piping welds determined to have wall thickness less than the design requirements of Section III of the ASME Code were repaired.

l 3.

On page 5 of the PSI Program Plan, Volume 4, you indicate that during l

the mechanized examination of the reactor vessel transducer contact may not have been maintained on the transition from the first to I

second shell course.

Confirm that a manual ultrasonic examination was performed on essentially 100% of this region and that all recordable ultra-sonic indications were dispositioned in accordance with the requirements of Section XI of the ASME Code.

Subject:

BACK-UP EMERGENCY OPERATIONS FACILITIES (EOF)

References:

1) letter GD Bouchey to Brian Grimes, " Siting of Emergency Operations Facilities," dated March 20, 1981 2)

Letter GD Bouchey t; Brian Grimes, " Siting of Emergency Operation Facilities," dated December 12, 1980 References 1) and 2) described the Supply System's approacn to responding to NRC requircrLents for near-site emergency operations facilities and requested NRC staff concurrence with this approach. The staff has never responded to the referenced 1etters despite many efforts to obtain staff agreement on this matter.

Nonetheless, the Supply System proceeded in good faith and constructed Emergency Operation Facilities (EOF) close to our generating stations at both our Hanford and Satsop sites in order to provide necessary support during a plant emergency.

At the Hanford site the Emergency Operation Facility (EOF) is 1.3 miles from WNP-1 and 0.75 miles from WNP-2. The Satsop site E0F is 0.85 miles from WNP-3.

In each caso continued EOF habitability has been assured through consideration of site specific accident radiological parameters in the facility.

In view of the radiological protection factors provided by our EOF facilities, we do not believe establishment of provisions for a "back-up" EOF is necessary or appropriate.

However, confirming my telephone discussions with Messrs Tom Novak and R.

Auluck of the NRR staff on June 14-15, 1983, the Supply System will modify our emergency preparedness plans to designate an alternate location for assembly of individuals who would normally respond to the EOF for use in the event that travel in the vicinity of the EOF is hampered by accident radiological conditions. Each alternate assembly location will be equipped with telephone communication links to the respective EOFs and the Plant Technical Support Centers (TSCs).

~

Thomas H. Novak Page 2 Backup Emergency Operation Facilities June 16,1983 The alternate response location for the Hanford Site will be the Supply System headquarters building at 3000 George Washington Way in Richland.

It is 9.5 miles, straight line distance, from both WNP-1 and WNP-2 and approximately 11 miles travel distance by automobile. Existing emergency facilities and communication capabilities at this location are described in detail in the WNP-1/2 Emergency Plan, Rev. 3 and are adequate to accommodate this function. Floor plans of Supply System headquarters building extracted from the Emergency Preparedness Plan (Attachment 1) are provided for your infonnation.

The WNP-3 Emergency Prepardness Plan will be modified to identify the State of Washington Emergency Operation Center as the alternate response location.

It is located in Olympia Washington at a distance 30 miles straight line and 40 miles by automobile from WNP-3. Communication capabilities at this center are described in the WNP-3 Emergency Preparedness Plan, Rev. O and are adequate to accomodate the functions of the alternate EOF response location.

Since WNP-2 is nearing completion we would appreciate prompt resolution of this matter.

Very truly yours,
