3.0 SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS 3.3 Reactor Coolant System, Steam Generator Tubes, and Other Components Subject to ASME XI Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code Inspection and Testing Surveillance (Continued)

Tube Inspection means an inspection of the steam generator tube from the point of entry (hot leg side) completely around the U-bend to the top support of the cold leg.

(ii)

The steam generator shall be determined OPERABLE after completing the corresponding actions (plug all tubes exceeding the plugging limit and all tubes containing through-wall cracks) required by Table 3-8.

e.

Reporting Requirements (i)

Following each in-service inspection of steam generator tubes, the number of tubes plugged in each steam generator shall be reported to the Commission within 30 days.'

(ii)

The complete results of the steam generator tube inservice inspection shall be reported to the Commission within six (6) months following completion of the inspection.

This report shall include:

1.

Number and extent of tubes inspected.

2.

Location and percent of wall thickness penetra-tion for each imperfection.

3.

Identification of tubes plugged.

(iii)

Results of steam generator tube inspections which fall into Category C-3 and require prompt notification of the Commission shall be reported pursuant to Section 5.6 of l

the Technical Specifications prior to resumption of plant operation. The written followup of this report shall provide a description of investigations conducted to determine cause of the tube degradation and correc-tive measures taken to prevent recurrence.

(3) Surveillance of Reactor Coolant System Pressure Isolation Valves a.

Periodic leakage testing

  • on each valve listed in Table 2-9 shall be accomplished prior to entering the power operation
  • To satisfy ALARA requirements, leakage may be measured indirectly (as froa the perfomance of pressure indicators) if accomplished in accordance with approved procedures and supported by computations showing that the method is capable of demonstrating valve compliance with the leakage criteria.

3.0 SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS 3.3 Reactor Coolant System Steam Generator Tubes, and Other Components!

Subject to ASME XI Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code Ir.spection and Testing Surveillance (continued)

Basis Undetected prolonged leakage of borated reactor coolant onto carbon steel j

sets up an unusual corrosion mechanism.. Detection of this leakage at an early stage can best be accommodated directly after an outage and before i

startup. The inspection program specified in Specification 3.3(1) places major emphasis on the areas of highest stress concentration as determined by general design evaluation and experience with similar systems. The-inspections will rely on non-destructive analysis methods utilizing up-to-date analyzing equipment and trained personnel.

Volumetric inspection of the reactor pressure vessel is to be performed completely from the outside diameter. The testing techniques and acceptance criteria of Section XI of.

i the ASME B&PV Code will be utilized, except where specific relief is granted by the Comission.

i The. surveillance requirements for inspection of the steam generator tubes ensure that the structural integrity of this portion of the RCS will be main-tained. The program for in-service inspection of the steam generator tubes is based on a modification of Regulatory Guide 1.83, Revision 1, dated July 1975.

In-service inspection of steam generator tubing is essential in order i

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 in-service conditions that lead to corrosion.

In-service inspection of steam generator tubing also provides a means of characterizing.the nature and cause of any tube degradation so that correc-tive measures can be taken.

L Wastage-type defects are unlikely with proper chemistry treatment of the secondary coolant. However, even if a defect should develop in service,- it l

will be found during scheduled in-service 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.

Whenever the results of any steam generator tubing in-service inspection fall into Category C-3, these results will be promptly reported to the Commission pursuant to Section 5.6 of the Technical Specifications prior to the resump-l tion of plant operation.

Such cases will be considered by the Commission on.

a case-by-case basis and may result in a requirement for analysis, laboratory i

examinations, tests, additional eddy-current inspection, and revision of the i

Technical Specifications, if necessary.
