Dear Mr. Mroczka:
SUBJECT:
RELIEF FROM ASME CODE SECTION XI REQUIREMENTS FOR INSERVICE INSPECTIOP OF CATEGORY B-J WELDS (TAC 62807)
By letter dated September 16, 1986, Connecticut Yankee Atomic Power Company (CYAPCO) requested relief from ASME Code Section XI inservice inspection requirements for certain Category B-J welds which had been determined to be impractical to perform at the Haddam Neck Plant during the second ten-year inspection interval.
In response to a staff request for additional information dated November 6, 1986, CYAPC0 submitted information, by letter dated January 26, 1987, that described in greater detail the specific limitation or obstruction and the percentage of the Code-required examination completed for each weld.
The staff has completed its review of the information provided by the licensee's letters and concludes that the relief requests may be granted for the second ten-year inspection interval ending on January 1, 1988, unless revised or modified prior to the end of the interval. The staff also concludes that grantirg relief where the Code requirements are impractical is authorized by law and will not endanger life or property, or the common defense and security, and is otherwise in the public interest considering the hurden that could result upon Connecticut Yankee Atomic Power Company if these requirements were imposed on the Haddam Neck Plant. Accordingly,pursuantto10CFR50.55a(g)(6)(1)of the Commission's regulations, Connecticut Yankee Atomic Power Company is
