Nuclear Regulatory Commission Enclosure 13F1111-02 Page 1 of 1REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATIONRAI B.2.22-3.1BackgroundThe December 8, 2010, response to request for additional information (RAI) B.2.22-3, statedthat alternative methods would be used to examine the nuclear services and decay heatseawater system intake conduits due to their depth of installation and proximity to the intakecanal. The response also stated that the alternative method of inspection will be based onproven technology and industry operating experience, and will be qualified subject toperformance demonstration specific to the plant, including consideration for piping material,design, and service. The response further stated that the performance demonstration will verifythe ability of the test methods, equipment, and personnel to detect loss of material with sufficientresolution to ensure no loss of intended function. The April 26, 2011, response to RAI B.2.22-4revised license renewal application Section A.1.1.20 to include a statement that the intakeconduit inspections will be performed by qualified methods.IssueGiven that there are no currently qualified methods to examine the nuclear services and decayheat seawater system intake conduits one will have to be developed and demonstrated.RequestIf a qualified method has been developed for inspecting the nuclear services and decay heatseawater system intake conduits, state this method and provide sufficient information such thatthe staff can confirm that the method will adequately manage the effects of aging.If an alternative qualified performance demonstrated method to inspect the nuclear services anddecay heat seawater system intake conduits must be developed then the proposed final safetyanalysis report (FSAR) supplement should contain a summary description of activities formanaging the effects of aging as required by 10 CFR 21(d). The FSAR supplement shouldinclude, for example, that the test method will be based on proven technology and testparameters, a performance demonstration will verify the ability of the test methods, equipment,and personnel, and the alternative method will be capable of detecting loss of material withsufficient resolution to ensure no loss of intended function, and will consider industry operatingexperience.ResponseThe CR-3 License Renewal FSAR Supplement description of the CR-3 Buried Piping and TanksInspection Program has been revised to provide additional detail regarding inspection activitiesassociated with the Nuclear Services and Decay Heat Seawater System intake conduits. Therevised description reflects that test activities will be based on proven technology and testparameters. Test methods will incorporate the use of performance demonstration and qualifiedmethods as necessary to assure the efficacy of test results. These results will be capable ofdetecting loss of material with sufficient resolution to ensure no loss of intended function, andwill consider applicable industry operating experience.This response involves a change to the License Renewal Application; refer to the information inEnclosure 2.

The Program includes preventivemeasures to mitigate corrosion by protecting the external surface of buried componentsthrough use of coating or wrapping. The Program also includes visual examination ofburied piping components made accessible by excavation. Program administrativecontrols to be developed include ensuring an appropriate as-found pipe coating andmaterial condition inspection is performed whenever buried piping within the scope of thisProgram is exposed; specifying that an inspection datasheet will be used; requiringinspection results to be documented; including precautions concerning excavation anduse of backfill for License Renewal piping and tanks, including a requirement that buriedpipe and tank coating inspection shall be performed, when excavated, by qualifiedpersonnel to assess its condition; and including a requirement that a coating engineer orother qualified individual should assist in evaluation of any pipe and tank coating damageor degradation found during the inspection.The Buried Piping and Tanks Inspection Program activities for the element Detection ofAging Effects are performed consistent with the requirements of NUREG-1801, Revision2, except that CR-3 will use alternative methods, such as Broadband Electromagnetic(BEM) scanning, to examine the Nuclear Services and Decay Heat Seawater Systemintake conduit piping from the inside to determine the condition of its external surfaces.These examinations will be performed using qualified methods subject to performancedemonstration to verify the efficacy of the examination techniques and inspection results.This examination will be performed on at least 50% of the length of one of the two intakeconduits, such that at least 25% of the piping length of both conduits will be inspected.Qualification of the test methods will be established based on proven technology and testparameters, consideration of operating experience at other facilities, and will be validatedwith a performance demonstration specific to CR-3. The performance demonstration willincorporate piping material, design and service conditions, and will verify the ability of thetest methods, equipment, and personnel to detect loss of material with sufficientresolution to ensure no loss of intended function. Initial testing will be performed prior tothe period of extended operation, and will be repeated at intervals based on test results toensure no loss of intended function prior to the next test performance. Test qualifications,including performance demonstration results, will be documented with the results of theinitial testing.The following table outlines the minimum inspection schedule prescribed for the BuriedPiping and Tanks Inspection Program. (Note that the table of inspections was provided inLRA Amendment #20 via PEF letter to the NRC 3F0411-05, dated April 26, 2011.)

S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Enclosure 13F1111-02 Page 1 of 1REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATIONRAI B.2.22-3.1BackgroundThe December 8, 2010, response to request for additional information (RAI) B.2.22-3, statedthat alternative methods would be used to examine the nuclear services and decay heatseawater system intake conduits due to their depth of installation and proximity to the intakecanal. The response also stated that the alternative method of inspection will be based onproven technology and industry operating experience, and will be qualified subject toperformance demonstration specific to the plant, including consideration for piping material,design, and service. The response further stated that the performance demonstration will verifythe ability of the test methods, equipment, and personnel to detect loss of material with sufficientresolution to ensure no loss of intended function. The April 26, 2011, response to RAI B.2.22-4revised license renewal application Section A.1.1.20 to include a statement that the intakeconduit inspections will be performed by qualified methods.IssueGiven that there are no currently qualified methods to examine the nuclear services and decayheat seawater system intake conduits one will have to be developed and demonstrated.RequestIf a qualified method has been developed for inspecting the nuclear services and decay heatseawater system intake conduits, state this method and provide sufficient information such thatthe staff can confirm that the method will adequately manage the effects of aging.If an alternative qualified performance demonstrated method to inspect the nuclear services anddecay heat seawater system intake conduits must be developed then the proposed final safetyanalysis report (FSAR) supplement should contain a summary description of activities formanaging the effects of aging as required by 10 CFR 21(d). The FSAR supplement shouldinclude, for example, that the test method will be based on proven technology and testparameters, a performance demonstration will verify the ability of the test methods, equipment,and personnel, and the alternative method will be capable of detecting loss of material withsufficient resolution to ensure no loss of intended function, and will consider industry operatingexperience.ResponseThe CR-3 License Renewal FSAR Supplement description of the CR-3 Buried Piping and TanksInspection Program has been revised to provide additional detail regarding inspection activitiesassociated with the Nuclear Services and Decay Heat Seawater System intake conduits. Therevised description reflects that test activities will be based on proven technology and testparameters. Test methods will incorporate the use of performance demonstration and qualifiedmethods as necessary to assure the efficacy of test results. These results will be capable ofdetecting loss of material with sufficient resolution to ensure no loss of intended function, andwill consider applicable industry operating experience.This response involves a change to the License Renewal Application; refer to the information inEnclosure 2.

The Program includes preventivemeasures to mitigate corrosion by protecting the external surface of buried componentsthrough use of coating or wrapping. The Program also includes visual examination ofburied piping components made accessible by excavation. Program administrativecontrols to be developed include ensuring an appropriate as-found pipe coating andmaterial condition inspection is performed whenever buried piping within the scope of thisProgram is exposed; specifying that an inspection datasheet will be used; requiringinspection results to be documented; including precautions concerning excavation anduse of backfill for License Renewal piping and tanks, including a requirement that buriedpipe and tank coating inspection shall be performed, when excavated, by qualifiedpersonnel to assess its condition; and including a requirement that a coating engineer orother qualified individual should assist in evaluation of any pipe and tank coating damageor degradation found during the inspection.The Buried Piping and Tanks Inspection Program activities for the element Detection ofAging Effects are performed consistent with the requirements of NUREG-1801, Revision2, except that CR-3 will use alternative methods, such as Broadband Electromagnetic(BEM) scanning, to examine the Nuclear Services and Decay Heat Seawater Systemintake conduit piping from the inside to determine the condition of its external surfaces.These examinations will be performed using qualified methods subject to performancedemonstration to verify the efficacy of the examination techniques and inspection results.This examination will be performed on at least 50% of the length of one of the two intakeconduits, such that at least 25% of the piping length of both conduits will be inspected.Qualification of the test methods will be established based on proven technology and testparameters, consideration of operating experience at other facilities, and will be validatedwith a performance demonstration specific to CR-3. The performance demonstration willincorporate piping material, design and service conditions, and will verify the ability of thetest methods, equipment, and personnel to detect loss of material with sufficientresolution to ensure no loss of intended function. Initial testing will be performed prior tothe period of extended operation, and will be repeated at intervals based on test results toensure no loss of intended function prior to the next test performance. Test qualifications,including performance demonstration results, will be documented with the results of theinitial testing.The following table outlines the minimum inspection schedule prescribed for the BuriedPiping and Tanks Inspection Program. (Note that the table of inspections was provided inLRA Amendment #20 via PEF letter to the NRC 3F0411-05, dated April 26, 2011.)
