Title	Degradation of the Reactor Coolant System (Rcs) Pressure Boundary
Event Description	During inspection of the hot leg nozzles on RCP loop #2 in accordance with the Alloy 600 Program Plan during Refuel 12, evidence of leakage was identified on nozzle RC-IPT-0106B. This constitutes degradation of the RCS pressure boundary. Corrective action is being evaluated. RC-IPT-0106B is a pressure transmitter that taps off of reactor coolant system hot leg (loop) # 2 . The location of the Pressure transmitter is found in Waterford Unit 3, FSAR Chapter 5.1, Flow Diagram Reactor Coolant System, Figure 5.1-3. The license said that the picture indicates a small amount of boric acid crystals in the area of the leakage. Licensee did not know if the leakage is from a weld, pin hole leak, etc. The NRC Resident Inspector was notified of this event by the licensee.
