S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ATTN: Document Control Desk Washington, D. C. 20555-0001 Vogtle Electric Generating Plant -Unit 2 Pressurizer Nozzle Full Structural Weld Overlay Nondestructive Examination Results Spring 2007 Outage (2R12)Ladies and Gentlemen:
Southern Nuclear Operating Company (SNC) completed the last performance demonstration initiative (PDI) qualified ultrasonic examination (UT) of Vogtle Electric Generating Plant (VEGP) Unit 2 pressurizer nozzle full structural weld overlays (FSWOLs) on April 1, 2007. This activity was accomplished in accordance with SNC's alternative ISI-GEN-ALT-06-03, Rev. 2, which was approved per NRC safety evaluation report (SER) (TAC Nos. MD2794, MD2795, MD2796 AND MD2797). Page 18 of the SER includes the following statement: "the Licensee will provide the NRC, within 14 days after the completion of the ultrasonic examination of the weld overlay installations, (1) the examination results of the weld overlays, (2) a discussion of any repairs to the overlay material and/or base metal and the reason for repair, and (3) will perform the subsequent ISI in accordance with Q-4300 of Appendix Q to the ASME Code, Section XI." Enclosure 1 contains the requested examination and repair information.
Enclosure 2 contains the SNC commitment to perform subsequent ISI on the pressurizer FSWOLs, in accordance with Q-4300 of Appendix Q to the 2004 Edition of Section XI with Addenda through 2005.This letter contains one NRC commitment.
If you have any questions, please advise.Sincerely, B. J. Georl Manager, Nuclear Licensing ,4o7 U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NL-07-0803 Page 2 BJG/DRG/daj
