Subject:
Duke Power Company McGuire Nuclear Station Docket Nos. 50-369, 50-370
Dear Sir:
Attached are copies of the following documents or presentation materials:
1.
McGuire Unit 2 Tube Integrity Verification Presentation.
2.
McGuire Nuclear Station Unit 2 - Review of Susceptibility to an Event like the McGuire Unit 1 Tube R18C25 Rupture and Justification for Return to Power.
3..
McGuire Nuclear Power Station Unit 2 Evaluation of B&W Alloy 600 Plugs Presentation Material.
.4.
McGuire Nuclear Station - Unit 2 Evaluation of B&W Alloy 600 Plugs Justiff. cation for Return to Power B&W Document Identifier 51-1175791-00.
The above material was discussed with flRC representatives during ar. August 31, 1989 meeting in White Flint, MD. This meeting was held to inform the NRC of
.our findings from the inspection of the Unit 2 steam generator tubes and plugs during the current refueling outage. The meeting also fulfilled a prior conmiitment made in my letter dated May 8,1989.
Babcock & Wilcox considers Items 3 and 4 identified above to be proprietary.
The proprietary determination was discussed by B&W in a letter and affidavit to the NRC dated September 6, 1989. This letter was signed by Mr. J. H.
+
Taylor, Manager of B&W Licensing Services and is attached herein.
Also attached to this letter is a revised Page 7-7 of the document entitled, McGuire Unit 1 Nuclear Power Station Evaluation of Degradation of Tube R18C25 and Justification for Return to Power. This document was submitted as an attachment to my May 8, 1989 letter. This revision corrects two errors in the chemistry parameters contained in Table 7-3.
These errors were found during a recent review of this document and we do not feel they are technically APol Y# FCC

. margin.
I hereby reaffirm my previous comitment to perform 100% bobbin coil eddy current inspection of the McGuire Unit I steam generators as stated in my May 8, 1989 letter. This will be done during the next refueling outage, currently projected for March 1990. We will comunicate the results of the inspection to the NRC staff in a report prior to restart from the refueling outage.
Based upon NRC staff comments at the August 31, 1989 meeting, we now under-stand that a meeting to present the inspection report and discuss the findings and conclusions will not be required. With this understanding, we will cancel the comitment to hold this meeting I made in my May 8,1989 letter.
I appreciate the NRC staff's effort and timely action in support of McGuire.
Please let me, or the appropriate member of my staff, know of any further concerns you may have regarding this matter.
Very Truly Yours, bY t
