Dear Sirs:

~ Response to Generic Letter 89-08, Erosion / Corrosion-Induced Pipe Wall Thinning Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Ceneric Letter 89-08 requested.

licensees to provide assurances that a program has been implemented which consists of systematic measures to ensure that erosion / corrosion (E/C) does not lead to degradation of single-phase and two-phase high-energy carbon

. steel systems.

By letter dated September 18, 1987 (corrected November 4, 1987), Portland

' General Electric Company (PCE) responded to NRC Bulletin 87-01, " Thinning of Pipe Walls in Nuclear Power Plants", giving a detailed history of the evolvement of the long-term E/C Monitoring Program at the Trojan Plant. As committed to in our response,;the program has been further improved, and it is equivalent to the Nuclear Utility Management and Resource Council

'(NUMARC), Program described in NUREG-1344, " Erosion / Corrosion-Induced Pipe

. Wall Thinning' in U.S. Nuclear Power Plants".

' Inspections for E/C-induced pipe wall thinning have been performed annually E

at!the Trojan Plant since 1982. The long-term E/C Monitoring Program that

'has been developed is implemented under an approved Plant procedure, and is

. documented.in a computer data base that facilitates data trending. The program recognizes the susceptibility of piping carrying single-phase or two-phase fluid to E/C and ensures that the structural integrity of all high-energy secondary system piping and components is maintained.
