License Renewal Application (LRA)
Draft Request for Additional Information (RAI) Set 34 Aging Management Programs D-RAI B2.1.32-1 (follow-up)
Background:
By letter dated September 30, 2010, the applicant responded to follow-up RAI B2.1.32-1 regarding the Structures Monitoring Program acceptance criteria. In the response, the applicant stated that prior to the period of extended operation, the acceptance criteria for concrete structural elements for safety-related structures will be revised to incorporate the quantitative evaluation criteria provided in ACI 349.3R.
Issue:
The qualitative acceptance criteria should apply to all concrete elements within the scope of the Structures Monitoring Program; however, the applicants response only addresses safety-related structures. In addition, the response makes no mention of conducting a baseline inspection with qualitative acceptance criteria. In order to properly monitor and trend structural degradation during the period of extended operation, a baseline inspection in accordance with ACI 349.3R acceptance criteria, must be completed prior to the period of extended operation.
Request:
- 1) Update the acceptance criteria for all in-scope concrete elements or justify why it is not needed.
- 2) Provide plans and a schedule to conduct a baseline inspection in accordance with the ACI 349.3R acceptance criteria prior to the period of extended operation, or justify why a baseline inspection is not needed.
