Refer to Appendices C and D for applicable Relief Requests and Code Cases, respectively.
System leakage tests are conducted in accordance with Articles IWA-5000 and IWD-5000, "System Pressure Tests," as stipulated within TMM-020, "Inservice Pressure Testing Program." Additionally, system leakage tests will be conducted in accordance with the following:
- 1.
IWD-5221, "System Leakage Test."
The system leakage test shall be conducted at the system pressure obtained while the system, or portion of the system, is in service performing its normal operating function or at the system pressure developed during a test conducted to verify system operability (e.g. to demonstrate system safety function or to satisfy technical specification surveillance requirements).
- 2.
IWD-5222, "Boundaries" (a) The pressure retaining boundary for closed systems includes only those portions of the system required to operate or support the safety function up to including the first normally closed valve (including a safety or relief valve) or valve capable of automatic closure when the safety function is required.
(b) The pressure retaining boundary for non-closed systems (e.g.)
service water systems) includes only those portions of the system required to operate or support the safety function up to and including the first normally closed valve (including a safety or relief valve) or valve capable of automatic closure when the safety function is required. Open ended discharge piping is included in the pressure retaining boundary, provided it is periodically pressurized to conditions described in IWD-5221.
(c) The following portions of systems are excluded from examination requirements (1) items outside the boundaries of (a) above (2) items outside the boundaries of (b) above (3) open ended discharge piping that is not periodically pressurized to conditions described in IWD-5221 (4) portions of the system that are associated with a spray header or are normally submerged in its process fluid such that the external surfaces of the pressure retaining boundary are normally wetted during its pressurized conditions.

H.B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2 Fifth Ten-Year Interval Inservice Inspection Program 21.0 Subsection IWF for Class 1, 2, 3, and MC Component Supports 21.1 Bases and Scope The Class 1, 2, 3, and MC component support boundaries are based on the requirements of 10 CFR 50.2, Regulatory Guide 1.26, and the HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, UFSAR. Specific examinations are based on the requirements of the ASME B&PV Code, Section Xl, Table IWF-2500-1, as indicated below.
The term "component support" includes supports for such items as vessels and pumps, and supports for piping that are treated separately for selection purposes. These supports also include snubber supports to the building and piping, outside of the snubber cylinder pin-to-pin exclusive which is examined under the Snubber Program (TMM-006).
1 Exemptions from support examination requirements are in accordance with Article IWF-1000, "Scope and Responsibility," subsection IWF-1230, "Supports Exempt from Examination". Supports exempt from the examination requirements of Article IWF-2000, "Examination and Inspection," are those connected to piping and other items exempt from volumetric, surface, VT-1, or VT-3 visual examination under the following:
IWB-1 220, "Components Exempt from Examination" IWC-1220, "Components Exempt from Examination" IWD-1 220, "Components Exempt from Examination" IWE-1220, "Components Exempt from Examination" 2
In addition, portions of supports that are inaccessible due to being encased in concrete, buried underground, or encapsulated by guard pipe, are also exempt from the requirements of Article IWF-2000.
- 3.
Component supports selected and examined are those supports for components, i.e., vessels, pumps, etc., that are required to be examined in accordance with the following:
IWB-2500, "Examination and Pressure Test Requirements" IWC-2500, "Examination and Pressure Test Requirements" IWD-2500, "Examination and Pressure Test Requirements"
- 4.
Supports examined for piping are selected in accordance with the percentages and sampling requirements of Table IWF-2500-1 from the support population of all piping not exempted under IWB-1 220, IWC-1220, and IWD-1220, in accordance with IWF-2510, "Supports Selected for Examination."

Supports have been categorized in the Fifth Ten-Year Interval Inservice Inspection Program to identify support types by component support function as follows:
A - Deadweight hangers B - Restraints (multi-directional)
C - Thermal Movement (spring hangers)
- 6.
Support types A, B and C have been further categorized in IDDEAL in accordance with the table identified in the Fifth Ten-Year Interval Plan (RNP-PM-009).
- 7.
Examinations will be in accordance with Table IWF-2500-1, Examination
- 8.
Category F-A, and will include 25% of Class 1, 15% of Class 2, and 10% of Class 3 supports on non-exempt piping, including piping supports located on piping classified as Examination Category C-F-le and C-F-2e for Class 2 piping
- 9.
The total percentage sample will be comprised of supports from each system where the individual sample sizes are proportional to the total number of non-exempt supports of each type and function within each system. Fractional numbers shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number.
- 10.
For multiple components other than piping, within a system of similar design, function, and service, the supports of only one of the multiple components are required to be examined.
- 11.
To the extent practical, the same supports selected for examination during the first inspection interval shall be examined during each successive inspection interval.

approved for use in Regulatory Guide 1.147 Latest Revision, with the Conditionally Acceptable Requirement identified in BOLD.
Per Regulatory Guide 1.147 Code Cases provide alternatives to existing Code requirements that the ASME developed and approved. The new Code Cases and revisions to existing Code Cases listed as approved in Tables 1 and 2 of this guide will be incorporated by reference into 10 CFR 50.55a. Code Cases approved by the NRC may be used voluntarily by licensees as an alternative to compliance with ASME Code provisions incorporated by reference into 10 CFR 50.55a. When a licensee initially implements a Code Case, 10 CFR 50.55a requires that the most recent version of that Code Case as listed in Tables 1 and 2 be implemented. If a Code Case is implemented by a licensee and a later version of the Code Case is incorporated by reference into 10 CFR 50.55a and listed in Tables 1 and 2 during the licensee's present 120-month ISI program interval, that licensee may use either the later version or the previous version. An exception to this provision would be the inclusion of a limitation or condition on the use of the Code Case that is necessary, for example, to enhance safety.
Licensees who choose to continue use of the Code Case during the subsequent 120-month ISI program interval will be required to implement the latest version incorporated by reference into 10 CFR 50.55a and listed in Tables 1 and 2. Code Cases may be annulled because the provisions have been incorporated into the Code, the application for which it was specifically developed no longer exists, or experience has shown that an examination or testing method is no longer adequate. After a Code Case is annulled and 10 CFR 50.55a and this guide are amended, licensees may not implement that Code Case for the first time. However, a licensee who implemented the Code Case prior to annulment may continue to use that Code Case through the end of the present ISI interval. An annulled Code Case cannot be used in the subsequent ISI interval unless implemented as an approved alternative under 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3). If a Code Case is incorporated by reference into 10 CFR 50.55a and later annulled by the ASME because experience has shown that an examination or testing method is inadequate, the NRC will amend 10 CFR 50.55a and this guide to remove the approval of the annulled Code Case.
Licensees should not begin to implement such annulled Code Cases prior to the rulemaking. Notwithstanding these requirements, the Commission may impose new or revised Code requirements, including implementation schedules, that it determines are consistent with the Backfit Rule (10 CFR 50.109).

H. B. ROBINSON STEAM ELECTRIC PLANT, UNIT NO. 2 FIFTH TEN-YEAR INTERVAL INSERVICE INSPECTION PROGRAM RELIEF REQUESTS
H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2 Fifth Ten-Year Interval Relief Request RR-01 Relief Request Number RR-01 Pressurizer Surge Line Nozzle Inner Radius Component(s) for Which Relief is Requested The component applicable to this relief request is the H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant (HBRSEP), Unit No. 2, pressurizer surge line nozzle inside radius section.
Code Examination Requirements Per the requirements of 10 CFR50.55a(b)(2)(xxi)(A), "The provisions of Table IWB-2500-1, Examination Category B-D, Full Penetration Welded Nozzles in Vessels, Items B3.40 and B3.60 (Inspection Program A) and Items B3.120 and B3.140 (Inspection Program B) of the 1998 Edition must be applied when using the 1999 Addenda through the latest edition and addenda incorporated by reference in paragraph (b)(2) of this section. A visual examination with magnification that has a resolution sensitivity to detect a 1-mil width wire or crack, utilizing the allowable flaw length criteria in Table IWB-3512-1, 1997 Addenda through the latest edition and addenda incorporated by reference in paragraph (b)(2) of this section, with a limiting assumption on the flaw aspect ratio (i.e., a/I = 0.5),
may be performed instead of an ultrasonic examination."
Requested Relief HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, requests relief from 10CFR50.55a(b)(2)(xxi)(A), regarding visual examination of the pressurizer surge line nozzle inside radius section.
Basis for Requested Relief HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, requests relief in accordance with 10 CFR 50.55a(g)(6)(i) on the basis that performance of the 10CFR50.55a(b)(2)(xxi)(A),-required visual examination of the pressurizer surge line nozzle inside radius section is impractical to perform.
The pressurizer surge line nozzle inside radius section is not accessible for volumetric examination from the exterior of the pressurizer due to interferences associated with the pressurizer heater penetrations (reference sketch, Attachment 1). Examination from the interior of the pressurizer is precluded due to access restrictions caused by the pressurizer retaining basket (Attachment 2). Major design modifications to the pressurizer bottom head, involving significant worker radiation exposures, would be required to establish a configuration that would allow the 10CFR50.55a(b)(2)(xxi)(A) visual examination of the pressurizer surge line nozzle inside radius section. Based on the configurations of the exterior and interior areas surrounding the pressurizer surge line nozzle inside radius section, and the significant modifications that would be required to allow performance of the 10CFR50.55a(b)(2)(xxi)(A) required examinations, HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, has concluded that these 10CFR50.55a(b)(2)(xxi)(A) required examinations are impractical to perform.
H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2 Fifth Ten-Year Interval Relief Request RR-01 Proposed Alternative Examinations No alternative examinations are proposed.
The pressurizer surge line nozzle is examined by VT-2 visual examination during pressure testing each refueling outage in accordance with the ASME B&PV Code,Section XI, 2007 Edition with 2008 Addenda, Table IWB-2500-1, Examination Category B-P. This Code-required pressure testing provides reasonable assurance of structural integrity.
Request for Relief No. RR-01

H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2 Fifth Ten-Year Interval Relief Request RR-02 Relief Request Number RR-02 Regenerative Heat Exchanger Component(s) for Which Relief is Requested The components applicable to this relief request are the HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, regenerative heat exchanger circumferential head welds, tube sheet-to-shell weld, nozzle-to-vessel welds, nozzle inside radius section, branch connections, socket welds, and associated supports.
Code Examination Requirements ASME Section Xl, 2007 Edition with 2008 Addenda, Table IWB-2500-1, Examination Category B-B, "Pressure Retaining Welds in Vessels Other Than Reactor Vessels," Item Numbers B2.51, 'Circumferential," and B2.80, "Tubesheet-to-Vessel Welds," require volumetric examination of the regenerative heat exchanger vessel head weld and the tube sheet-to-head weld.
ASME Section Xl, 2007 Edition with 2008 Addenda, Table IWB-2500-1, Examination Category B-D, "Full Penetration Welded Nozzles in Vessels -
Inspection Program B," Item Numbers B3.150, "Nozzle-to-Vessel Welds," and B3.160, "Nozzle Inside Radius Section," require volumetric examination of the regenerative heat exchanger nozzle shell welds and inside radius section.
ASME Section Xl, 2007 Edition with 2008 Addenda, Table IWB-2500-1, Examination Category B-J, "Pressure Retaining Welds in Piping," Item Numbers B9.32, "Branch Pipe Connection Welds Less Than NPS 4," and B9.21, "Circumferential Welds" (less than NPS 4), require surface examination elf the inlet, outlet, and intermediate connecting piping welds between the shell courses.
ASME Section XI, 2007 Edition with 2008 Addenda, Table IWF-2500-1)
Examination Category F-A, 'Supports," Item Number F1.40, "Supports Other Than Piping Supports (Class 1, 2, 3, and MC)," requires VT-3 visual examination of all supports.
H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2 Fifth Ten-Year Interval Relief Request RR-02 Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3)(ii), the HBRSEP requests relief from the Code-required examination coverage for visual, surface and volumetric examinations of the following components located inside the regenerative heat exchanger room:
Components Required Examination Regenerative heat exchanger vessel and tube sheet Volumetric
-to-head weld Regenerative heat exchanger nozzle and inside Volumetric radius section Regenerative heat exchanger head welds, shell Surface/Volumetric welds, inlet, outlet, and intermediate connecting piping welds between the shell courses:
Regenerative heat exchanger supports other than VT-3 Visual piping supports -
Requested Relief HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, requests relief from ASME B&PV Code,Section XI, 2007 Edition with 2008 Addenda, Table IWB-2500-1; Examination Category B-B, Item Nos. B2.51 and B2.80,
- Examination Category B-D, Item Nos. B3.150 and B3.160, Examination Category B-J, Item Nos. B9.32 and B9.21,
- Examination Category F-A, Item No. F1.40 Relief is requested for the required surface, volumetric, and VT-3 visual examination of the regenerative heat exchanger vessel head weld, tube sheet-to-shell weld, vessel welds, inlet, outlet, intermediate connecting piping welds, inside radius section, and component supports.
Basis for Requested Relief HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, requests relief in accordance with 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3)(ii) on the basis that performance of the Code-required examinations associated with the regenerative heat exchanger would result in hardship and unusual difficulty without a compensating increase in the level of quality and safety.
H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2 Fifth Ten-Year Interval Relief Request RR-02 Radiation surveys in the regenerative heat exchanger room identified general area dose rates of 1 to 2 Rem/hour, and heat exchanger contact dose rates of 3 to 4 Rem/hour. As a result, significant worker exposures would result from the preparation for and performance of the Code-required examinations. In order to maintain occupational exposures As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA),
relief from these requirements is being requested. Additionally, the VT-2 visual examination performed each refueling outage during pressure testing provides reasonable assurance of structural integrity. The VT-2 can be accomplished in less time required to perform versus the visual, surface and associated volumetric examinations required by ASME Code.
The drawing of the regenerative heat exchanger provided in Attachment II specifically identifies the applicable welds in conjunction with Attachment I. The welds and supports identified in Attachment s are located inside the regenerative heat exchanger room.
Surface and volumetric examinations may require scaffolding in addition to insulation removal and weld preparation. The asbestos insulation on the regenerative heat exchanger is original insulation and would have to be replaced in its entirety based on the brittleness of the insulation. Surface examination requires a hands-on application in the performance of these examinations.
The time required for VT-2 examination is significantly less than the time required for a surface or volumetric examination. ASME Section Xl, 2007 Edition - 2008 Addenda, IWA-5242(a) states, "Essentially vertical surfaces of insulation need only be examined at the lowest elevation where leakage may be detectable.
Essentially horizontal surfaces of insulation shall be examined at each insulation joint." IWA-5242(b) states, "When examining insulated components, the examination of the surrounding area (including floor areas or equipment surfaces located underneath the component) for evidence of leakage, or other areas to which such leakage may be channeled, shall be required." A VT-2 examination can be performed from a distance in a short period of time, thereby lowering radiation exposure to the examiner.
The total estimated dose associated with performing the ASME Code required examinations of the regenerative heat exchanger is approximately 70 Rem. This is based on approximately 30 Rem estimated for preparation and examination, and 40 Rem for insulation and scaffolding.
H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2 Fifth Ten-Year Interval Relief Request RR-02 There are physical geometric restrictions associated with these components which also cause difficulty in the performance of Code-required examinations, specifically ultrasonics. The nozzle-to-vessel welds and nozzle inside radius sections for the heat exchanger were not designed for ultrasonic examination from the outside diameter. The small diameter of the heat exchanger shell prevents a meaningful ultrasonic examination of these components. The Code-required volumetric examination on the heat exchanger head circumferential welds is limited due to the weld crown, radius of the closure caps, and the nozzles. The Code-required volumetric examination of the tubesheet welds is limited by the weld crown and is obstructed by a support clamp. The clamp must be removed prior to the examination of these welds.
HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, proposes to perform a VT-3 general visual examination of the regenerative heat exchanger, without insulation removal, once each inspection period, as an alternative to the required surface/volumetric and visual examinations.
Proposed Alternative Examinations HBRSEP will perform a VT-3 general visual examination of the Regenerative Heat Exchanger, without insulation removal, once each inspection period, as an alternative examination to the required surface/volumetric and visual examinations.
The regenerative heat exchanger pressure-retaining boundary is examined by VT-2 visual examination during pressure testing that is performed during each refueling outage in accordance with Table IWB-2500-1, Examination Category B-P. This Code-required pressure testing provides reasonable assurance of structural integrity.

H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2 Fifth Ten-Year Interval Relief Requests RR-03 Relief Request Number RR-03 Reactor Vessel Bottom Head Peel Segment-To-Disk Circumferential Weld Component(s) for Which Relief is Requested The component applicable to this relief request is the HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, reactor pressure vessel bottom head peel segment-to-disk circumferential weld.
Code Examination Requirements The ASME B&PV Code, Section Xl, 2007 Edition with 2008 Addenda, Table IWB-2500-1, Examination Category B-A, "Pressure Retaining Welds in Reactor Vessel," Item No. B13.21, "Circumferential Head Welds," requires volumetric examination of the accessible length of the reactor pressure vessel bottom head peel segment-to-disk circumferential weld in accordance with Figure No. IWB-2500-3.
Requested Relief HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, requests relief from the ASME B&PV Code, Section Xl, 2007 Edition with 2008 Addenda, Table IWB-2500-1, Examination Category B-A, Item No. B1.21, regarding volumetric examination of the reactor pressure vessel bottom head peel segment-to-disk circumferential weld 7 on the attached ISI Sketch.
Basis for Requested Relief HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, requests relief in accordance with 10 CFR 50.55a(g)(6)(i) on the basis that performance of the Code-required volumetric examination of the reactor pressure vessel bottom head peel segment-to-disk circumferential weld is impractical to perform.
Accessibility for examination of this weld was not provided in the original plant design, which occurred prior to issuance of the Section XI ISI examination requirements. The bottom head peel segment-to-disk weld is completely enclosed within the pattern of Bottom Mounted Instrumentation (BMI) penetrations under the reactor vessel, such that no portion of the weld is accessible for either surface or volumetric examination. There is no existing technology that would provide a meaningful volumetric examination for this configuration. Therefore, this weld is considered inaccessible for volumetric examination due to physical space constraints.
H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2 Fifth Ten-Year Interval Relief Requests RR-03 Proposed Alternative Examinations No alternative examinations are proposed.
The reactor pressure vessel closure bottom head peel segment-to-disk circumferential weld is examined by VT-2 visual examination during pressure testing each refueling outage in accordance with the ASME B&PV Code,Section XI, 2007 Edition with 2008 Addenda, Table IWB-2500-1, Examination Category B-P. This Code-required pressure testing provides reasonable assurance of structural integrity.
Implementation Schedule This relief is requested for and will be implemented in the HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, Fifth Ten-Year Inservice Inspection (ISI) Interval, which begins on July 21, 2012 and ends on February 18, 2022

H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2 Fifth Ten-Year Interval Relief Request RR-04 The HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, design of Class 1 vents and drains typically consists of a single isolation valve with a capped end that constitutes the Class 1 system boundary. Many of these valves are not readily accessible due to their physical locations and radiation/contamination levels in the area. Pressurization of these locations for testing would be performed in Mode 3 and would involve opening these single isolation valves to pressurize to the extended Class 1 system pressure test boundary. After performance of the required VT-2 visual examination, these single isolation valves would be closed, isolating a high temperature, pressurized volume of water between the isolation valve and the capped end. This results in an undesirable configuration that would be conducive to pressure lock or the initiation of system leakage from valve packing or capped ends.
In addition, the piping associated with the vents and drains will contain pressurized reactor coolant fluid between the valve and cap. During the subsequent outage, the valve would need to be opened prior to cap removal in order to release the pressurized slug of reactor coolant system fluid contained between the valve and cap, after depressurization of the reactor coolant system to eliminate a safety hazard.
The HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, design also requires substantial effort to extend the Class 1 system boundary where check valves or non-redundant components serve as the first system isolation from the reactor coolant system. Such configurations may require check valve disassembly or other temporary configurations to achieve test pressures at upstream piping and valves. Since the Class 1 system pressure testing is performed in Mode 3, these temporary configurations would conflict with Technical Specification requirements and valve alignments. Establishing and restoring such temporary configurations could also result in an unwarranted increase in worker radiation exposures.
(The following is specific information pertaining to the various pipe segments for which relief has been requested). Small Size Class 1 Vent, Drain, Test and Fill Lines Relief is requested from fully pressurizing piping between the first and second isolation device on small size vent, drain, test, and fill lines. There are twenty-six vent, drain, test and fill lines in the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) ranging in size from 0.75 inch to two inches. The configurations are either two small isolation valves in series, a valve and blind flange, or a valve and cap. In some configurations, the piping between the two vent and drains will tee to a third valve that is also the second isolation boundary. The piping segments provide the design-required double isolation barrier for the reactor coolant pressure boundary. The Code-required leakage test would be performed in MODE 3 at the normal operating pressure of 2235 psig and at a nominal temperature of about 547°F.
H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2 Fifth Ten-Year Interval Relief Request RR-04 Leakage testing of these piping segments at nominal operating pressure in MODE 3 would require the opening of the inboard isolation valve at the normal operating RCS temperature and pressure conditions. In so doing, the design requirement for two primary coolant pressure boundary isolation devices would be violated. Additionally, opening of these valves introduces the potential risk for spills and personnel contamination. For configurations where blind flanges or caps are installed as the isolation device, opening of the inboard valve introduces the possibility of a personnel safety hazard if a flange or cap fails in the presence of inspection personnel.
These piping segments are VT-2 inspected through the entire length as part of the Class 1 system inspection at the conclusion of each refueling outage. The leakage test will not specifically pressurize past the first isolation valve for this inspection. No external or visible leakage will be allowed for a test to be successful. Since this type of test will assure that the combined first and second isolation devices are effective in maintaining the reactor coolant pressure boundary at normal operating temperature and pressure, the increase in safety achieved from the Code-required leakage test is not commensurate with the hardship of performing such testing.
Larger Size Class 1 Piping Segments 14 Inch Residual Heat Removal Motor Operated Valves This piping segment consists of 42 feet of 10 inch piping between Residual Heat Removal (RHR) inlet valves RHR-750 and RHR-751. These valves are interlocked at a required set point of 1474 psig to avoid over-pressurization of the RHR system. The interlock prevents manual opening of the valves from the Control Room with RCS pressure above the set point. There are no test connection points in this segment of the line. This segment was last tested during the Second Ten-Year Inset-vice Inspection interval, with the vessel defueled, as part of the RCS hydrostatic test.
The piping segment is VT-2 inspected through the entire length as part of the Class 1 system inspection at the conclusion of each refueling outage. The proposed system pressure test will not specifically pressurize past the first isolation valve for this inspection. It is possible that the piping becomes pressurized due to minor leakage past the first isolation valve. No external or visible leakage will be allowed for the test to be successful. This test will provide assurance that the combined first and second isolation valves are effective in maintaining the reactor coolant pressure boundary at normal operating temperature and pressure.
H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2 Fifth Ten-Year Interval Relief Request RR-04 Based on the above, extension of the pressure retaining boundary during system leakage tests to Class 1 pressure retaining components within the system boundary represents a hardship and unusual difficulty that does not provide a compensating increase in the level of quality and safety.
Proposed Alternative Examinations The Class 1 system boundary during leakage tests will be maintained in a normal, operational alignment with items identified within Table 1 constituting exceptions to the Code-required boundary of B-P, B15.20. The VT-2 visual examination will extend to the Class 1 boundary during the performance of each system leakage test required by table B-P.
Items within Table 1 will be visually examined for evidence of leakage during system leakage testing without being pressurized.

H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2 Fifth Ten-Year Interval Relief Request RR-05 Relief Request RR-05 Borated Bolted Connections Component(s) for Which Relief is Requested The components applicable to this relief request are HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, Class 1, 2, and 3 pressure retaining bolting.
Code Examination Requirements The ASME B&PV Code,Section XI, 2007 Edition with 2008 Addenda, IWA-5250, "Corrective Action," requires that if leakage If leakage occurs at a bolted connection in a system borated for the purpose of controlling reactivity, one of the bolts shall be removed, VT-3 examined, and evaluated in accordance with IWA-3100. The bolt selected shall be the one closest to the source of leakage. When the removed bolt has evidence of degradation, all remaining bolting in the connection shall be removed, VT-3 examined, and evaluated in accordance with IWA-3100.
Requested Relief HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, requests relief from the ASME B&PV Code,Section XI, 2007 Edition with 2008 Addenda, IWA-5250, regarding the actions to be taken when leakage occurs at a bolted connection in a system borated for the purpose of controlling reactivity, during the conduct of a system pressure test. Specifically, removal and examination of one bolt closest to the source of leakage would be by VT-1 visual examination in lieu of the Code-required VT-3 visual examination. Additional relief is requested from the requirement to remove any bolting if the source of the leakage can be confirmed by visual inspection, to have not come into contact with the bolting.
Basis for Relief HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, requests relief to perform the Proposed Alternative Examinations pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3)(i) on the basis that the proposed alternatives provide an acceptable level of quality and safety.
The use of a VT-1 visual examination in lieu of the Code-required VT-3 visual examination will provide a comparable level of quality and safety. The ASME B&PV Code, Section Xl, references the VT-1 visual examination for pressure retaining bolting. Guidance for performing VT-1 visual examinations of bolting are already incorporated within examination procedures and are considered more stringent than those associated with the VT-3 visual examination.
H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2 Fifth Ten-Year Interval Relief Request RR-05 Leakage may be confirmed by visual inspection, to have not come into contact with the bolting by direct methods and pursuant to confirmation that the borated effluent has not come into contact with the subject bolt, the bolting degradation may be assessed to be acceptable. Furthermore, the licensee invokes a Boric Acid Program (EGR-NGGC-0207).
The purpose of this procedure is to establish the requirements for minimizing the effects of boric acid corrosion on PWR structures, systems, and components (SSCs). It provides instructions for the inspection, reporting, evaluation and corrective actions required when boric acid residue is found. It also provides guidance for evaluating components which have been found to have wastage caused by boric acid corrosion.
The Proposed Alternative Examinations described below will provide an acceptable level of quality and safety when compared with the Code-required examinations.
This relief request specifically identifies the actions that are necessary to address bolted connection removal required by IWA-5250 of the ASME Code. The Code requires removal of a bolt, closest to the source of the leakage, when leakage occurs at a bolted connection, and prescribes the actions necessary if degradation is identified. The Code does not specifically address the actions necessary to stop leakage at a bolted connection, since such leakage may have a variety of sources. Plant processes (procedures) are in place to address the leakage source, such as generation of a corrective maintenance work order for leakage or evidence of leakage and employ the evaluation elements of the Boric Acid Program. This relief request is not directed at relief from correcting leakage sources, but is intended to address the actions necessary to address leakage identified at bolted connections, and required actions to be performed at the bolted connection, as required by IWA-5250, "Corrective Action."
Proposed Alternative Examinations If leakage is identified and in contact with a bolted connection in a system borated for the purpose of controlling reactivity during the conduct of a system pressure test, the following actions will be taken:
- 1. The bolt in contact with the source of leakage will be removed and a VT-1 visual examination performed. The condition will be evaluated in accordance with IWA-3100. When the removed bolt shows evidence of degradation, the remaining bolting will be removed, a VT-1 visual examination performed, and the condition will be evaluated in accordance with IWA-3100.
Implementation Schedule This relief is requested for and will be implemented in the HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, Fifth Ten-Year Inservice Inspection (ISI) Interval, which begins on July 21, 2012 and ends on February 18, 2022.
H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2 Fifth Ten-Year Interval Relief Request RR-06 Relief Request No RR-06 Surface Examination of Reactor Vessel Dissimilar Metal Welds Component(s) for Which Relief is Requested The components applicable to this relief request are the HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, reactor pressure vessel (RPV) nozzle-to-safe end welds on each loop on the reactor vessel inlet and outlet piping. These are dissimilar metal welds on the hot and cold leg piping of each reactor coolant system loop, i.e., RPV inlet and outlet piping. The affected welds are uniquely identified as follows:
Weld Identification Number Location CPL-107/1DM Hot Leg "A" CPL-107/14DM Cold Leg "A" CPL-1 07A/1 DM Hot Leg "B" CPL-107A/14DM Cold Leg "B" CPL-1 07B/1 DM Hot Leg "C" CPL-107B/14DM Cold Leg "C" Code Examination Requirements The ASME B&PV Code, Section Xl, 2007 Edition with 2008 Addenda, Table IWB-2500-1, Examination Category B-F, "Pressure Retaining Dissimilar Metal Welds in Vessel Nozzles," Item No. B5.10, requires volumetric and surface examination of RPV nozzle-to-safe end welds in accordance with Figure No.
Requested Relief HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, requests relief from the ASME B&PV Code,Section XI, 1995 Edition with 1996 Addenda, Table IWB-2500-1, Examination Category B-F, Item No. B5.10, regarding surface examination RPV nozzle-to-safe end welds.
Basis for Relief HBRSEP, Unit No. 2, requests relief in accordance with 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3)(ii) on the basis that hardship and unusual difficulty exists, without a compensating increase in the level of quality and safety, regarding performance of the Code-required surface examination of the RPV nozzle-to-safe end welds.
H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2 Fifth Ten-Year Interval Relief Request RR-06 Examination of the RPV nozzle-to-safe end welds was not considered as part of the original plant design, which occurred prior to issuance of Section XI ISI requirements. Access to the affected welds from the refueling cavity is significantly limited. Additionally, due to the configuration of the RPV nozzles as they penetrate the biological shield wall, the weld area accessible for the Code-required examinations is approximately the top one-third of the weld outside diameter.
Significant personnel hazards are associated with examinations of the RPV nozzle-to-safe end welds that are not commensurate with the benefits gained from performing such examinations. Access to the affected welds from the refueling cavity involves entry into an area that is physically confining with elevated ambient temperatures. These ambient conditions, combined with the required use of personnel protective equipment, create the potential for heat stress and exhaustion. Detailed dose assessments have concluded that performance of the Code-required examinations is not consistent with the principal of "As Low As Reasonably Achievable" (ALARA). For example, with an assumed area dose rate of 600 mRem/hour, worker exposure for surface examination of the six affected welds is estimated at approximately 7.5 Rem.
Previous examination history supports the Proposed Alternative Examinations in lieu of the Code-required surface examinations. A surface examination was performed in the Second 10-Year Interval on the accessible portions and identified no indications. For the Third 10-Year Interval, relief was granted from performing the surface examination. A VT-2 examination was performed from the refueling floor through the access hatch. The dissimilar metal welds, as well as the safe end-to-pipe welds, were examined at the conclusion of the Third 10-Year Interval for the ASME Code-required volume. Two indications were identified in the hot leg "B" safe end on the nozzle side, and one indication was identified in the cold leg "C" nozzle side.
The dissimilar metal welds, as well as the safe end-to-pipe welds, were examined volumetrically at the conclusion of the Third Ten-Year Interval for the ASME Code-required volume. Two volumetric indications were identified in the hot let "B" safe end on the nozzle side, and one indication was identified in the cold leg "C" nozzle side. These three volumetric indications were evaluated in accordance with Code requirements and found to be acceptable.
H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant, Unit No. 2 Fifth Ten-Year Interval Relief Request RR-06 During the Fourth Ten Year Interval, the dissimilar metal welds were examined under MRP-139 in refueling outage twenty five utilizing volumetric phased array technique. Volumetric indications were identified in all three hot leg dissimilar metal welds and the "B" loop on the cold leg and were validated as NOT ID connected by eddy current testing. Successive examinations are scheduled to be performed during refueling outage twenty seven, which is the last outage of the Fourth Ten Year Interval with mitigation planned in refueling outage twenty eight, which is the first refueling outage of the Fifth Ten Year Interval.
Proposed Alternative Examinations Ultrasonic examinations will be conducted from the inside diameter of the RPV nozzle and will include the Code-required weld volume, i.e., lower one-third, as well as the heat-affected zone. These examinations will be performed as required by ASME Section XI Code during the Fifth Ten Year Interval.
In addition, these welds are being examined, as required by 10CFR50.55a 50.55a(g)(6)(ii)(F), which states, "Licensees of existing, operating pressurized-water reactors as of July 21, 2011 shall implement the requirements of ASME Code Case N-770-1, subject to the conditions specified in paragraphs (g)(6)(ii)(F)(2) through (g)(6)(ii)(F)(1 0) of this section, by the first refueling outage after August 22, 2011,".
As an alternative to the Code-required surface examination, a VT-2 visual examination will be conducted in accordance with the ASME Code, Section Xl, 2007 Edition with 2008 Addenda, IWA-5242, "Insulated Components."
