ST. LUCIE PLANT, UNIT 2 - UPCOMING STEAM GENERATOR TUBE INSERVICE INSPECTION (TAC NO. MC5538) | |||
==Dear Mr. Stall:== | |||
Inservice inspections of steam generator (SG) tubes play a vital role in assuring that adequate structural integrity of the tubes is maintained. As required by the plant Technical Specifications, reporting requirements range from submitting a special report, within 15 days following completion of each inservice inspection of SG tubes, that identifies the number of tubes plugged and/or repaired; to submitting a special report, within 12 months following completion of the inspection, that provides complete results of the SG tube inservice inspection. The special report containing the complete results shall include the following: | |||
: 1. Number and extent of tubes inspected. | |||
: 2. Location and percent of wall-thickness penetration for each indication of an imperfection. | |||
: 3. Identification of tubes plugged and/or repaired. | |||
A phone conference has been arranged with members of your staff to discuss the ongoing results of the SG tube inspections to be conducted during the St. Lucie Unit 2 refueling outage. | |||
This phone call will occur after the majority of the tubes have been inspected, but before the SG inspection activities have been completed. | |||
Enclosed is a list of discussion points to be used in this phone conference. The staff plans to document a brief summary of the conference call, as well as any material that you may have provided to the staff in support of the call. | |||
Sincerely, | |||

STEAM GENERATOR TUBE INSPECTION DISCUSSION POINTS The following discussion points have been prepared to facilitate the phone conference arranged with the Florida Power and Light Company to discuss the results of the steam generator (SG) tube inspections to be conducted during the refueling outage.

Also, discuss the extent of the rotating probe inspections performed in the portion of tube below the expansion transition region (reference NRC Generic Letter 2004-01, Requirements for Steam Generator Tube Inspections). | |||

number of circumferential primary water stress corrosion cracking indications at the expansion transition). For the most significant indications in each area, provide an estimate of the severity of the indication (e.g., provide the voltage, depth, and length of the indication). In particular, address whether tube integrity (structural and accident induced leakage integrity) was maintained during the previous operating cycle. In addition, discuss whether any location exhibited a degradation mode that had not previously been observed at this location at this unit (e.g., observed circumferential primary water stress corrosion cracking at the expansion transition for the first time at this unit). | |||
