Tam, NRC Washington, DC ADLAq ATTACHMENT TO AEP:NRC:6567 EDDY CURRENT FINDINGS AND REPAIRS DURING THE UNIT 1 CYCLE 21 REFUELING OUTAGE Eddy current inspections were conducted on each of the four Unit 1 steam generators during the 2006 Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant (CNP) Unit 1 Cycle 21 outage (U1C21). The following table presents the tubes plugged prior to and during U 1 C21: 11 2 0 2 12 0 0 0 13 1 11* 12 14 1** 1** 2 Total 4 12 16 Seven of the eleven tubes plugged were stabilized to bound a non-removable foreign object.*

• Tube R69/C45 was administratively plugged (no degradation present) in the 2002 U1C18 refueling outage. Inspections performed during UlC21 identified that the tube plug was properly installed in the cold leg location in 2002; however, it was incorrectly installed in the hot leg tube location.

The hot leg location was mistakenly plugged in tube location R69/C63 instead of R69/C45. Corrective measures were performed in U1C21 to confirm neither of the affected tubes was degraded or defective and to correctly plug both the hot leg end of tube R69/C45 and the cold leg side of tube R69/C63, effectively removing both tubes from service. This event is being evaluated under the CNP Corrective Action Program.
