}} | The December 8, 2010, response to request for additional information (RAI) B.2.22-3, stated that alternative methods would be used to examine the nuclear services and decay heat seawater system intake conduits due to their depth of installation and proximity to the intake canal. The response also stated that the alternative method of inspection will be based on proven technology and industry operating experience, and will be qualified subject to performance demonstration specific to the plant, including consideration for piping material, design, and service. The response further stated that the performance demonstration will verify the ability of the test methods, equipment, and personnel to detect loss of material with sufficient resolution to ensure no loss of intended function. | ||
The April 26, 2011, response to RAI B.2.22-4 revised license renewal application Section A.1.1.20 to include a statement that the intake conduit inspections will be performed by qualified methods.Issue Given that there are no currently qualified methods to examine the nuclear services and decay heat seawater system intake conduits one will have to be developed and demonstrated. | |||
Request If a qualified method has been developed for inspecting the nuclear services and decay heat seawater system intake conduits, state this method and provide sufficient information such that the 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 and decay heat seawater system intake conduits must be developed then the proposed final safety analysis report (FSAR) supplement should contain a summary description of activities for managing the effects of aging as required by 10 CFR 21(d). The FSAR supplement should include, for example, that the test method will be based on proven technology and test parameters, 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 with sufficient resolution to ensure no loss of intended function, and will consider industry operating experience. | |||
Response The CR-3 License Renewal FSAR Supplement description of the CR-3 Buried Piping and Tanks Inspection Program has been revised to provide additional detail regarding inspection activities associated with the Nuclear Services and Decay Heat Seawater System intake conduits. | |||
The revised description reflects that test activities will be based on proven technology and test parameters. | |||
Test methods will incorporate the use of performance demonstration and qualified methods as necessary to assure the efficacy of test results. These results will be capable of detecting loss of material with sufficient resolution to ensure no loss of intended function, and will consider applicable industry operating experience. | |||

#23 CHANGES TO THE LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION Source of License Renewal Application (LRA) Amendment 23 Changes Change RAI On LRA Page A-13, replace Subsection A.1.1.20 as amended by LRA Amendments 12, 15, B.2.22-3.1 and 20, with the following paragraphs: | |||
The Buried Piping and Tanks Inspection Program is a new program that manages the aging effect of loss of material for the external surfaces of buried steel piping components, as well as cracking and degradation of material properties of concrete, in CR-3 systems within the scope of License Renewal. The Program includes preventive measures to mitigate corrosion by protecting the external surface of buried components through use of coating or wrapping. | |||
The Program also includes visual examination of buried piping components made accessible by excavation. | |||
Program administrative controls to be developed include ensuring an appropriate as-found pipe coating and material condition inspection is performed whenever buried piping within the scope of this Program is exposed; specifying that an inspection datasheet will be used; requiring inspection results to be documented; including precautions concerning excavation and use of backfill for License Renewal piping and tanks, including a requirement that buried pipe and tank coating inspection shall be performed, when excavated, by qualified personnel to assess its condition; and including a requirement that a coating engineer or other qualified individual should assist in evaluation of any pipe and tank coating damage or degradation found during the inspection. | |||
The Buried Piping and Tanks Inspection Program activities for the element Detection of Aging Effects are performed consistent with the requirements of NUREG-1801, Revision 2, except that CR-3 will use alternative methods, such as Broadband Electromagnetic (BEM) scanning, to examine the Nuclear Services and Decay Heat Seawater System intake conduit piping from the inside to determine the condition of its external surfaces.These examinations will be performed using qualified methods subject to performance demonstration 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 intake conduits, 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 test parameters, consideration of operating experience at other facilities, and will be validated with a performance demonstration specific to CR-3. The performance demonstration will incorporate piping material, design and service conditions, and will verify the ability of the test methods, equipment, and personnel to detect loss of material with sufficient resolution to ensure no loss of intended function. | |||
Initial testing will be performed prior to the period of extended operation, and will be repeated at intervals based on test results to ensure no loss of intended function prior to the next test performance. | |||
Test qualifications, including performance demonstration results, will be documented with the results of the initial testing.The following table outlines the minimum inspection schedule prescribed for the Buried Piping and Tanks Inspection Program. (Note that the table of inspections was provided in LRA Amendment | |||

S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Enclosure 1 3F1111-02 Page 1 of 1 REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION RAI B.2.22-3.1
Background
The December 8, 2010, response to request for additional information (RAI) B.2.22-3, stated that alternative methods would be used to examine the nuclear services and decay heat seawater system intake conduits due to their depth of installation and proximity to the intake canal. The response also stated that the alternative method of inspection will be based on proven technology and industry operating experience, and will be qualified subject to performance demonstration specific to the plant, including consideration for piping material, design, and service. The response further stated that the performance demonstration will verify the ability of the test methods, equipment, and personnel to detect loss of material with sufficient resolution to ensure no loss of intended function.
The April 26, 2011, response to RAI B.2.22-4 revised license renewal application Section A.1.1.20 to include a statement that the intake conduit inspections will be performed by qualified methods.Issue Given that there are no currently qualified methods to examine the nuclear services and decay heat seawater system intake conduits one will have to be developed and demonstrated.
Request If a qualified method has been developed for inspecting the nuclear services and decay heat seawater system intake conduits, state this method and provide sufficient information such that the 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 and decay heat seawater system intake conduits must be developed then the proposed final safety analysis report (FSAR) supplement should contain a summary description of activities for managing the effects of aging as required by 10 CFR 21(d). The FSAR supplement should include, for example, that the test method will be based on proven technology and test parameters, 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 with sufficient resolution to ensure no loss of intended function, and will consider industry operating experience.
Response The CR-3 License Renewal FSAR Supplement description of the CR-3 Buried Piping and Tanks Inspection Program has been revised to provide additional detail regarding inspection activities associated with the Nuclear Services and Decay Heat Seawater System intake conduits.
The revised description reflects that test activities will be based on proven technology and test parameters.
Test methods will incorporate the use of performance demonstration and qualified methods as necessary to assure the efficacy of test results. These results will be capable of detecting loss of material with sufficient resolution to ensure no loss of intended function, and will consider applicable industry operating experience.
This response involves a change to the License Renewal Application; refer to the information in Enclosure

- 23 CHANGES TO THE LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION Source of License Renewal Application (LRA) Amendment 23 Changes Change RAI On LRA Page A-13, replace Subsection A.1.1.20 as amended by LRA Amendments 12, 15, B.2.22-3.1 and 20, with the following paragraphs:
The Buried Piping and Tanks Inspection Program is a new program that manages the aging effect of loss of material for the external surfaces of buried steel piping components, as well as cracking and degradation of material properties of concrete, in CR-3 systems within the scope of License Renewal. The Program includes preventive measures to mitigate corrosion by protecting the external surface of buried components through use of coating or wrapping.
The Program also includes visual examination of buried piping components made accessible by excavation.
Program administrative controls to be developed include ensuring an appropriate as-found pipe coating and material condition inspection is performed whenever buried piping within the scope of this Program is exposed; specifying that an inspection datasheet will be used; requiring inspection results to be documented; including precautions concerning excavation and use of backfill for License Renewal piping and tanks, including a requirement that buried pipe and tank coating inspection shall be performed, when excavated, by qualified personnel to assess its condition; and including a requirement that a coating engineer or other qualified individual should assist in evaluation of any pipe and tank coating damage or degradation found during the inspection.
The Buried Piping and Tanks Inspection Program activities for the element Detection of Aging Effects are performed consistent with the requirements of NUREG-1801, Revision 2, except that CR-3 will use alternative methods, such as Broadband Electromagnetic (BEM) scanning, to examine the Nuclear Services and Decay Heat Seawater System intake conduit piping from the inside to determine the condition of its external surfaces.These examinations will be performed using qualified methods subject to performance demonstration 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 intake conduits, 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 test parameters, consideration of operating experience at other facilities, and will be validated with a performance demonstration specific to CR-3. The performance demonstration will incorporate piping material, design and service conditions, and will verify the ability of the test methods, equipment, and personnel to detect loss of material with sufficient resolution to ensure no loss of intended function.
Initial testing will be performed prior to the period of extended operation, and will be repeated at intervals based on test results to ensure no loss of intended function prior to the next test performance.
Test qualifications, including performance demonstration results, will be documented with the results of the initial testing.The following table outlines the minimum inspection schedule prescribed for the Buried Piping and Tanks Inspection Program. (Note that the table of inspections was provided in LRA Amendment
- 20 via PEF letter to the NRC 3F0411-05, dated April 26, 2011.)
