Nuclear Industry to address the known Anchor Darling double-disk gate valve (ADDDGV) issues.

Reference 2 indicated each utility will provide a listing of their Anchor Darling valve population with active safety fttnctions along with relevant valve information, including the results of susceptibility evaluations, repair status, and a repair schedule for each susceptible valve not yet repaired. This letter serves to provide this information for the Callaway Plant.

P.O. Box 620 Fulton, MO 65251  : AmerenMissouri.com

ULNRC-06402 December 14. 2017 Page 2 of 1 The Attachment to this letter contains the following information for each ADDDGV.

  • Plant name. unit. and valve ID.
  • System.
  • Valve functional description.
  • Valve size.
  • Active safety function (open. close, both).
  • Are multiple design basis post-accident strokes required (yes/no)?
  • Expert Panel risk ranking (high. medium, low).
  • Result of susceptibility evaluation (susceptible or not susceptible).
  • Is the susceptibility evaluation in general conformance with TP-16-l-1 12 R4 (Reference 3)?
  • Does the susceptibility evaluation rely on thread friction? If yes, was the COF greater than
0. 1 0? For cases where thread-friction was relied upon, information is provided on whether the coefficient of friction was above or below 0.1.
  • Was an initial stem-rotation check performed? If yes, rotation criteria (i.e.. 10 degrees or < 5 degrees) are included.
  • Was the diagnostic test data reviewed for faiLure precursors described in TP-16-1-112 R4 (Reference 3)?
  • The valves repair status (i.e. repaired or not repaired).
  • A repair schedule for each susceptible valve.

This Letter does not contain new commitments.

Shocild you have any questions or require additional information, please contact me at (573) 310-7025 or Terry Becker, Supervising Engineer at (573) 659-6068.
