CHANGE 95-15, " ALTERNATE PLUGGING CRITERIA FOR STEAM GENERATOR (S/G)

TUBING - UNITS 1 AND 2" In accordance with 10 CFR 50.90 we are enclosing a requested amendment to License DPR-77 and DPR-79 to change the TSs of SON Units 1 and 2. The proposed change revises TS surveillance requirements and bases to incorporate alternate S/G tube plugging criteria at tube support plate (TSP) intersections. The approach taken is similar to guidance given in the draft Generic Letter (GL) 94-XX, " Voltage-Based Tubes Affected by Outside Diameter Stress Corrosion Cracking," for alternate plugging criteria. TVA's proposed changes are similar to the Farley Unit 1 TS 1 amendment that was submitted by letter dated May 31,1995. The basis for the change is that alternate plugging criteria maintains the structuralintegrity of the tubing during normal operating, transient, and postulated accident conditions.

I The proposed TS change is identified in Enclosure 1. The justification of the proposed TS change is provided in Enclosure 2. A proposed determination of no significant hazards consideration performed pursuant to 10 CFR 50.92 is provided in Enclosure 3.

A TVA commitmentis provided in Enclosure 4. Exceptions to the NRC's draft GL are  :

provided in Enclosure 5.

While S/G TSP tube degradation at SON is not expected to be significant, TVA is submitting this TS change in advance of the upcoming Unit 1 Cycle 7 refueling outage ,

to prevent an exigent request for alternate plugging criteria implementation. If a I sufficiently high number of TSPs outside diameter stress corrosion cracking indications are detected during SON's Unit 1 Cycle 7 refueling outage, use of the proposed alternate plugging criteria will be preferred. Therefore, NRC approval of this TS change is requested to support the Unit 1 outage that is currently scheduled for September 9,1995.

Please note that the proposed TS change is based princioally on the methodology l documented in WCAP-13990. This WCAP was docketed to NRC under TS 94-09 on June 28,1994.
