(underline

-added, strikethrough

-deleted)2.3.1.2 Reactor Vessel Internals The reactor vessel internals for each unit are described in the reactor coolant system description (Unit 2, Reactor Vessel Internals; Unit 3, Reactor Vessel Internals).

For both units, the lower core support structure, the upper core support structure, and the incore instrumentation support structure are the three major parts of the reactor internals.

Lower Core Support Structure The major member of the reactor vessel internals is the lower core support structure consisting of the following components included in this evaluation.

core baffle/former assembly:

bolts core baffle/former assembly:

plates core barrel assembly:

bolts, screws core barrel assembly:

axial flexure plates (thermal shield flexures), flange, ring, shell, thermal shield, lower core barrel flange weld, upper core barrel flange weld core barrel assembly:

outlet nozzles lower internals assembly:

clevis insert bolt lower internals assembly:

clevis insert lower internals assembly:

intermediate diffuser plate lower internals assembly:

fuel alignment pin lower internals assembly:

lower core plate lower internals assembly:

lower core support plate column sleeves lower internals assembly:

lower core support column bolt lower internals assembly, lower core support column castings:

column cap, lower core support lower internals assembly:

radial key lower internals assembly:

secondary core support (energy absorbing device)specimen guides (not subject to aging management review)specimen plugs (installed in IP2 only; not subject to aging management review)

NL-1 0-063 Attachment 1 Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 2 of 90 The lower core support structure is supported at its upper flange from a ledge in the reactor vessel. Within the core barrel are a core baffle and a lower core plate, both of which are attached to the core barrel wall. The lower core support structure provides passageways for the coolant flow. The lower core plate at the bottom of the core below the baffle plates provides support and orientation for the fuel assemblies.

Fuel alignment pins (two for each assembly)are also inserted into this plate. Columns are placed between the lower core plate and core support casting in order to provide stiffness and to transmit the core load to the core support casting. Adequate coolant distribution is obtained through the use of the lower core plate and a diffuser plate.Upper Core Support Structure The "top hat with deep beam features" upper core support structure consists of the following components included in this evaluation.

upper internals assembly, rod control cluster assembly (RCCA) guide tube assembly:

bolts upper internals assembly, RCCA guide tube assembly:

guide tube (including lower flange weld), guide plates upper internals assembly, RCCA guide tube assembly:

support pin upper internals assembly:

core plate alignment pin upper internals assembly:

head/vessel alignment pin upper internals assembly:

hold-down spring upper internals assembly:

support column upper internals assembly, mixing devices: support column orifice base, support column mixer upper internals assembly:

upper core plate, fuel alignment pin upper internals assembly:

support assembly (including ring), upper support plate upper internals assembly:

upper support column bolt The support columns establish the spacing between the upper support assembly and the upper core plate and are fastened at top and bottom to these plates and beams.The RCCA guide tube assemblies shield and guide the control rod drive shafts and control rods.They are fastened to the upper support and are guided by pins in the upper core plate for proper orientation and support. Additional guidance for the control rod drive shafts is provided by the control rod shroud tube which is attached to the upper support plate and guide tube.In-Core Instrumentation Support Structure The in-core instrumentation support structures consist of the following components included in this evaluation.

thermocouple conduit flux thimble guide tube bottom mounted instrumentation column NL-10-063 Attachment 1 Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 3 of 90 An upper system (thermocouple conduit) is used to convey and support thermocouples penetrating the vessel through the head, and a lower system (flux thimble guide tube) is used to convey and support flux thimbles penetrating the vessel through the bottom.The upper system utilizes the reactor vessel head penetrations.

Instrumentation port columns are slip-connected to in-line columns that are in turn fastened to the upper support plate. These port columns protrude through the head penetrations.

The thermocouples are carried through these port columns and the upper support plate at positions above their readout locations.

The thermocouple conduits are supported from the columns of the upper core support system.Table 2.3.1-2-1P2 and Table 2.3.1-2-1P3 list the mechanical components subject to aging management review and component intended functions for the reactor vessel internals.

Table 3.1.2-2-1P2 and Table 3.1.2-2-1P3 provide the results of the aging management review for the reactor vessel internals.

(> 700°F) as stated in the ASME Code,Section II, Part D, Table 4. No IPEC internals components operate at > 700'F. Therefore, loss of preload due to thermal stress relaxation (creep) is not an applicable aging effect for the reactor vessel internals components.

However, irradiation-enhanced creep (irradiation creep) or irradiation enhanced stress relaxation (ISR) is an athermal process that depends on the neutron fluence and stress: and, on void swelling if present. Neve.4heless Therefore, loss of preload of stainless steel and nickel alloy reactor vessel internals components will be managed by the Reactor Vessel Internals (RVI) Program. The RVI Program will implement the EPRI Pressurized Water Reactor Internals Inspection and Evaluation Guidelines, MRP-227. The RVI Program will use nondestructive examinations (NDE) and other inspection methods to manage aging effects for reactor vessel internals.

103. These components are subject to cracking due to fatigue as identified in the generic entry in the first line of this table.104. The One-Time Inspection Program will verify effectiveness of the Water Chemistry Control -Primary and Secondary Program.105. The origqinal inconel .quide tube support pins (split pins) were replaced in both units with X-750 pins. The IP3 X-750 split pins, in service since 1987, were replaced in 2009 with stainless steel pins. The IP2 X-750 pins, installed in 1995, remain in service. Future pin replacements will be based on the pin design, industry experience, manufacturer recommendations and plant specific considerations.

Revision 1 of NUREG-1801 includes no aging management program description for PWR reactor vessel internals.

NUREG-11801,Section XI.M16, PWR Vessel Internals, instead defers to the guidance provided in Chapter IV line items as appropriate.

The Chapter IV line item guidance recommends actions to: "..(1) participate in the industry programs for investigating and managing aging effects on reactor internaIs; (2) evaluate and implement the results of the industry programs as applicable to the reactor internals; and (3) upon completion of these programs, but not less than 24 months before entering the period of extended operation, submit an inspection plan for reactor internals to the NRC for review and approval." The industry programs for investigating and managing aging effects on reactor internals are part of the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) Materials Reliability Program (MRP). The MRP developed inspection and evaluation (I&E) guidelines for managing the effects of aging on pressurized water reactor vessel internals.

These guidelines are presented in MRP-227,"Materials Reliability Program: Pressurized Water Reactor Internals Inspection and Evaluation Guidelines." The I&E guidelines include:* summary descriptions of PWR internals and functions;

  • summary of the categorization and aging management strategy development of potentially susceptible locations, based on the safety and economic consequences of aging degradation;" direction for methods, extent, and frequency of one-time, periodic, and conditional examinations and other aging management methodologies;
  • acceptance criteria for the one-time, periodic, and conditional examinations and other aging management methodologies; and* methods for evaluation of aging effects that exceed the examination acceptance criteria.The MRP also developed inspection procedure requirements specific to the inspection methods delineated in MRP-227, as well as requirements for qualification of the nondestructive examination (NDE) systems used to perform those inspections..

These inspection procedure requirements are presented in MRP-228, "Materials Reliability Program: Inspection Standard for PWR Internals." MRP-227 and MRP-228 provide the basis of the IPEC Reactor Vessel Internals (RVI) Program.Revisions to MRP-227 and MRP-228, including any changes resulting from the NRC review of the documents (issued as MRP-227-A and MRP-228-A), will be incorporated into the IPEC RVI Program.

NL-10-063 Attachment 1 Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 85 of 90 The RVI Program will monitor the effects of aging on the intended function of the internals through periodic and conditional examinations.

The RVI Program will detect and evaluate cracking, loss of material, reduction of fracture toughness, loss of preload and dimensional changes of vessel internals components in accordance with MRP-227 inspection recommendations and evaluation acceptance criteria.IPEC will implement and maintain the RVI Program in accordance with the guidance in NEI 03-08 [Addenda], Addendum A, "RCS Materials Degradation Management Program Guidelines." Any deviations from mandatory, needed, or good practice implementation activities established in MRP-227 or MRP-228, will be managed in accordance with the NEI 03-08 implementation protocol.Evaluation

1. Scope of Program MRP-227 guidelines are applicable to reactor internal structural components.

The scope does not include consumable items such as fuel assemblies and reactivity control assemblies which are periodically replaced based on neutron flux exposure.

The scope does not include welded attachments to the reactor vessel which are'considered part of the vessel, or nuclear instrumentation (flux thimble tubes) which forms part of the reactor.coolant pressure boundary.

Other programs manage the effects of aging on these components.

MRP-227 separates PWR internals components into four groups depending on (1) their susceptibility to and tolerance of aging effects, and (2) the existence of programs that" manage the effects of aging. These groupings include: Primary -those internals components that are highly susceptible to the effects of at least one aging mechanism (identified in Table 4-3 of MRP-227);*. Expansion

-those internals components that are highly or moderately susceptible to the effects of at least one aging mechanism, but for which functionality assessment has shown a degree of tolerance to those effects (identified in Table 4-6 of MRP-227);Existing Programs -those internals components that are susceptible to the effects of at least one aging mechanism and for which generic and plant-specific existing AMP elements are capable of managing those effects (identified in Table 4-9 of MRP-227); and No Additional Measures -those internals components for which the effects of aging mechanisms are below the MRP-227 screening criteria (internals components not included in Tables 4-3, 4-6 or 4-9 of MRP-227).The categorization of internals components for Westinghouse PWRs, as presented in MRP-227, applies to IPEC Unit 2 and Unit 3 vessel internals.

The component inspections identified in MRP-227, Tables 4-3 and 4-6 for primary and expansion group components, define the scope of the IPEC RVI Program inspections.

Those components subject to aging management by existing programs, as delineated in MRP-227, Table 4-9, are included in V NL-1 0-063 Attachment 1 Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 86 of 90 the scope of those programs, and are not part of the RVI Program inspections.

Components that are not included in Tables 4-3, 4-6 or 4-9 are considered to be within the scope of the program, but require no specific inspections.

2. Preventive Actions The Reactor Vessel Internals Program is a condition monitoring program that does not include preventive actions. However, primary water chemistry is maintained in accordance with EPRI guidelines by the Water Chemistry Control -Primary and Secondary Program, which minimizes the potential for stress corrosion cracking (SCC) and irradiation assisted stress corrosion cracking (IASCC).Plant operations also influence aging of the vessel internals.

The general assumptions about plant operations used in the development of the MRP-227 guidelines are applicable to the IPEC units. The units are base loaded and implemented low leakage core loading patterns within the first 30 years of operation.

IPEC has implemented no design changes to reactor vessel internals beyond those identified in general industry guidance or recommended by Westinghouse.

3. Parameters Monitored or Inspected The RVI Program will monitor the effects of aging on the intended function of the internals through periodic and conditional examinations and other aging management methods, as required.

As described in MRP-227, the program contains elements that will monitor and inspect for the parameters that indicate the progress of each of these effects. The program will use NDE techniques to detect loss of material through wear, identify distortion of components, and locate cracks.Visual examinations (VT-3) will be used to detect wear. Visual examinations (VT-3) will also detect distortion or cracking through indications such as gaps or displacement along component joints and broken or damaged bolt locking systems. Direct measurements of spring height will be Used to detect distortion of the internals hold down spring. Visual examinations (EVT-1) will be used to detect crack-like surface flaws of components and welds. Volumetric (ultrasonic) examinations will be used to locate cracking of bolting.(MRP-227, Tables 4-3 and 4-6)

NL-10-063 Attachment 1 Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 87 of 90 4. Detection of Aging Effects The RVI Program will detect cracking, loss of material reduction of fracture toughness, loss of preload and dimensional changes (distortion) of vessel internals components in accordance with MRP-227. The NDE systems (i.e., the combinations of equipment, procedure, and personnel) used to detect these aging effects will be qualified in accordance with MRP-228. The RVI Program will. conduct inspections of primary group components as follows (MRP-227, Table 4-3):* Periodic visual examinations (VT-3) will detect loss of material due to wear from control rod guide tube guide plates and thermal shield flexure plates.* Periodic visual examinations (VT-3) of the baffle former assembly plates and edge bolts will detect symptoms of distortion due to void swelling or cracking from IASCC.These symptoms include abnormal interactions with fuel assemblies, gaps or displacement along component joints, broken or damaged bolt locking systems, and failed or missing bolts.0 Direct measurements of spring height will detect distortion of the internals hold down spring due to a loss of stiffness.

Measurements will be taken periodically, as needed to determine the life of the spring.* Periodic visual examinations (EVT-1) will detect crack-like surface flaws of the control rod guide tube assembly lower flange welds and the upper core barrel to flange weld.o Volumetric (UT) examinations will locate cracking of baffle former bolting. Baseline and subsequent measurements will be used to confirm the stability of the bolting pattern.Indications from EVT-1 or UT inspections may result in additional inspections of expansion group components, as determined by expansion criteria delineated in MRP-227, Table 5-3.The relationships between primary group component inspection findings and additional inspections of expansion group components are as follows.* Indications from the EVT-1 inspections of the control rod guide tube assembly lower flange welds may result in EVT-1 inspections of the lower support column bodies and VT-3 inspections of bottom mounted instrumentation column bodies to detect cracking.* Indications from the EVT-1 inspection of the upper core barrel to flange weld may result in EVT-1 inspections of the remaining core barrel welds* Indications from the UT inspections of baffle former bolting may result in UT inspections of the lower support column bolts and the barrel former bolts for cracking.

NL-10-063 Attachment 1 Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 88 of 90 5. Monitoring and Trending The RVI Program uses the inspection guidelines for PWR internals in MRP-227.Inspections in accordance with these guidelines will provide timely detection of aging effects. In addition to the inspections of primary group components, expansion group components have been defined should the scope of examination and re-examination need to be expanded beyond the primary group. Records of inspection results are maintained allowing for comparison with subsequent inspection results.IPEC will share inspection results with the industry in accordance with the good practice recommendations of MRP-227. The IPEC-specific results will be incorporated into an overall industry report that will track industry progress and will aid in evaluation of potentially significant issues, identification of fleet trends, and determination of any needed revisions to MRP-227 guidelines.

6. Acceptance Criteria The RVI Program acceptance criteria are from Section 5 of MRP-227. Table 5-3 of MRP-227 provides the acceptance criteria for inspections of the primary and expansion group components.

The criteria for expanding the examinations from the primary group components to include the expansion group components are also delineated in MRP-227, Table 5-3. The examination acceptance criteria include: (i) specific, descriptive relevant conditions for the visual (VT-3) examinations; (ii) requirements for recording and dispositioning surface breaking indications that are detected and sized for length by the visual (EVT-1) examinations; and (iii) requirements for system-level assessment of bolted assemblies with unacceptable volumetric (UT) examination indications that exceed specified limits.7. Corrective Action Conditions adverse to quality; such as failures, malfunctions, deviations, defective material and equipment, and nonconformances; are promptly identified and corrected.

In the case of significant conditions adverse to quality, measures are implemented to ensure that the cause of the nonconformance is determined and that corrective action is taken to preclude recurrence.

In addition, the cause of the significant condition adverse to quality and the corrective action implemented is documented and reported to appropriate levels of management.

The Entergy (10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B) Quality Assurance Program, including relevant corrective action controls, applies to the RVI Program.Any detected condition that does not satisfy the examination acceptance criteria must be processed through the corrective action program. Example methods for analytical disposition of unacceptable conditions are discussed or referenced in Section 6 of MRP-227. These methods or other demonstrated and verified alternative methods may be used.The alternative of component repair and replacement of PWR internals is subject to the applicable requirements of the ASME Code Section XI.

NL-10-063 Attachment 1 Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 89 of 90 8. Confirmation Process This attribute is discussed in Section B.0.3.9. Administrative Controls This attribute is discussed in Section B.0.3.10. Operating Experience Relatively few incidents of PWR internals aging degradation have been reported in operating U.S. commercial PWR plants. However, PWR internals aging degradation has been observed in European PWRs, specifically with regard to cracking of baffle-former bolting. For this reason, the U.S. PWR owners and operators created a program to inspect the baffle-former bolting to determine whether similar aging degradation might be expected to occur in U.S. plants. A benefit of this decision was the experience gained with the UT examination techniques used in the inspections.

In addition, the industry began laboratory testing projects to gather the materials data necessary to support future inspections and evaluations.

Other confirmed or suspected material degradation concerns that the industry has identified for PWR components are.wear in thimble tubes, potential wear in control rod guide tube guide plates, and cracking in some high-strength bolting. The industry has addressed the last concern primarily through replacement of high-strength bolting with bolt material that is less susceptible to cracking and by improved control of pre-load.The RVI Program established in accordance with the MRP-227 guidelines is a new program.Accordingly, there is no direct programmatic history for IPEC. However, program inspections will use qualified techniques similar to those successfully used at IPEC and throughout the industry for ASME Section XI Code inspections.

Internals inspections (VT-3)have been conducted at IPEC in accordance with ASME Section XI Code requirements, with no indications of component degradation.

IPEC has appropriately responded to industry operating experience for reactor vessel internals.

For example, guide tube support pins (split pins) have been replaced in both units on the basis of industry experience.

As with other U.S. commercial PWR plants, cracking of baffle former bolts is recognized as a potential issue for the IPEC units. As a result, IPEC has monitored industry developments and recommendations regarding these components.

Development of the MRP-227 guidelines is based upon industry operating experience, research data, and vendor evaluations.

Reactor vessel internals aging degradation incidents in both U.S. and foreign plants were considered in the development of the MRP-227 guidelines.

As implemented, this program will account for applicable future operating experience during the period of extended operation.

NL-1 0-063 Attachment 1 Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 90 of 90 Conclusion The RVI Program will be effective at managing aging effects since it will incorporate proven monitoring techniques, acceptance criteria, corrective actions, and administrative controls in accordance with MRP-227 and MRP-228 guidelines and current IPEC programs.

The RVI Program will provide reasonable assurance that the effects of aging are managed such that applicable components will continue to perform their intended functions consistent with the current licensing basis through the period of extended operation.
