Dear Mr. Denton:
In accordance with Reference (a), we provided our piping inspection plan for the LaSalle County Station Unit 2 Refueling Outage in Reference (b).
The inspection plan was prepared consistent with the guidance-in Generic Letter 84-11.
Reference (c) transmitted Nuclear Regulatory Commission acceptance of that inspection plan. Reference (d) transmitted clarification to the acceptance and Reference (e) indicted acceptance of the plan as clarified.
Augmented Inspections of IGSCC susceptible piping was conducted during the LaSalle Unit 2 Fall 1986 refueling outage. The inspection followed the plan submitted to the NRC and subsequently approved by the NRC.
The inspections were performed by General Electric Special Level II ultrasonic (UT) examiners. Data packages were reviewed by CECO UT Personnel and final acceptance or evaluations of indications were made by CECO Level III personnel.
