- CONSUMERS POWER COMPANY Docket 50-255 Request for Change to the Technical Specifications License DPR-20 For the reasons hereinafter set forth, it is requested that the Technical.
Specifications contained in Provisional Operating License DPR-20, Docket 50-255, issued to Consumers Power Company on October 16, 1972 for the Palisades Plant be changed a~ described in Section I below:
I. Change Replace the present Technical Specification 4.14 with the attached Technical Specification 4.14 (Attachment 1).
II. Discussion The major change to Technical Specification 4.14 is the inclusion of operating allowances tabulated in a new Table 4.14.1. The bases for these are provided in the te.xt of preliminary inspection results presented at the February 21, 1978 meeting with the NRC staff. The change to Technical Specification 4.14.2
is proposed because it became unnecessary to inspect 600 intersections with the rotational ECT probe.
are editorial.
Conclusion The other changes* to Paragraph 4.14.3 and the bases Based on the foregoing, both the Palisades Plant Review Committe and the Safety and Audit Review Board have reviewed the proposed changes and recom-mend their approval.

ATTACHMENT l
Objective To provide assurance of continued integrity of the steam generator tubes over their service lifetime.
Specification 4.14.1 Inspections will be made at a frequency not less than 12 nor more than 24 calendar months after the previous inspection. Tube inspection requirements will include inspection of all unplugged tubes with an *ECT indication of greater than or equal to 30% in either of the previous two inspection periods . . The conventional,
- circumferentially wound ECT pull type probe shall be used to inspect all unplugged tubes for which an ECT indication greater than or equal to 30% was noted 1in either of the two previous ECT inspections.
\'
In addition, a random. sample of 2% of the tubes in the hot leg and 1% of the tubes in the cold leg of each steam generator .
will be. inspected using the conventional, circumferentially wound ECT probe.
For the purposes of this Technical Specification, "tubes" refers to that portion of the steam generator U-tube from the point of ,entry on the cold leg side to the top support of the cold leg, or from the point of entry on the hot leg side com-pletely around the U-bend to the top support of the cold leg.
- ECT = Eddy Current Test 4-68
- 4.14.2 Inspection techniques, capable of detecting flaws in the presence of tube support plates, shall be used to inspect all accessible tube/tube support plate intersections where an ECT indication was present during the last inspection which was greater than or equal to 45% but cannot be interpreted in the current inspection due to the presence of dents.
In addition, the following shall apply for areas which could not be inspected due to dents in the last inspection. Additional intersections shall be selected for special examination to assure that all accessible previous ECT indications are inspected when their last recorded ECT reading plus the approp-riate operating allowance from Table 4.14.1 exceeds the Maximum Allowable Degradation specifierl in Table 4.14.2. If such indications, regardless of accessibility, are not inspected, the repair criteria of 4:14.3 shall apply for sleeving or plugging.
4.14.3 When inspection reveals that the tube degradation plus an NRC-approved appropriate operating allowance (for future degradation) is greater than the maximum allowable degradation specified in Table 4.14.2, the tube shall be declared to be defective and tube plugging or sleeving shall be performed.
In determining that a defect exists at a given tube location, indications from several ECT's may be averaged during a given
- inspection, but such averaging shall be based on not less than three ECT's.

In dented regions when the presence of a tube support plate tends to cause interference in the eddy current signals, the standard ECT inspection technique will not be able to detect flaws embedded in these regions.
However, there are several advanced inspection probes under development which have been shown to be effective in detecting flaws by screening out the interference signals caused by the presence of the tube support plates or dents.

CONSUMERS POWER COMPANY Docket 50-255 Request for Change to the Technical Specifications License DPR-20 For the reasons hereinafter set forth, it is requested that the Technical Specifications contained in Provisional Operating License DPR-20, Docket 50-255, issued to Consumers Power Company on October 16, 1972 for the Palisades Plant be changed as described in Section I below:
I. Change Replace the present Technical Specification 4.14 with the attached Technical Specification 4.14 (Attachment 1).
II. Discussion The major change to Technical Specification 4.14 is the inclusion of operating.
allowances tabulated in a new Table 4.14.1. The bases for these are provided in the t~xt of preliminary inspection results presented at the February 21, 1978 meeting with the NRC staff.- The change to Technical Specification 4 .14. 2 is proposed because it became unnecessary to inspect 600 intersections with the rotational ECT probe. The other changes to Paragraph 4.14.3 and the bases are editorial.
III. Conclusion
_Based on the foregoing, both the Palisades Plant Review Committe and the Safety and Audit Review Board have reviewed the proposed changes and recom-mend their approval.

4.14 Augmented Inservice Inspection P:togram*for*stea.m*Gerte:tators Applicability Applies to the tubes within both steam generators.
Objective To provide assurance of continued integrity of the steam generator tubes over their service lifetime.
Specification 4.14.1 Inspections will be made at a frequency not less than 12 nor more than 24 calendar months a~er the previous inspection. Tube inspection requirements will include inspection of all unplugged tubes with an *ECT indication of greater than or equal to 30% in either of the previous two inspection periods. The conventional, circumferentially wound ECT pul.l type probe shall be used to inspect all unplugged tubes for which an ECT indication greater than or equal to 30% was noted in either of the two previous ECT inspections.
In' addition, a random sample of 2% of the tubes in the hot leg and 1% of the tubes in the cold leg of each steam generator will be inspected using the conventional, circumferentially wound ECT probe.
For the purposes of this Technical Specification, "tubes'.'
refers to that portion of the steam generator U-tube from the point of entry on the cold leg side to the top support of the cold leg, or from the point of entry on the hot leg side com-
/
pletely around the U-bend to the top support of the cold leg.
4.14.2 Inspection techniques, capable of detecting flaws in the presence of tube support plates, shall be used to inspect all accessible .tube/tube support plate intersections where an ECT indication was present during the last inspection which was greater than or equal to 45% but cannot be interpreted in the current inspection due to the presence of dents.
In addition, the following shall apply for areas which could not be inspected due to dents in the last inspection. Additional intersections shall be selected for special examination to .
assure that all accessible previous ECT indications are inspected when their last recorded ECT reading plus the approp-riate operating allowance from Table 4.14.1 exceeds the Maximum Allowable Degradation specified in Table 4.14.2. If such indications, regardless o~ accessibility, are not inspected, the repair criteria of 4.14.3 shall apply for sleeving or plugging.
4.14.3 When. inspection reveals that the tube degradation plus an NRC-approved appropriate operating allowance (for future degradation) is greater than the maximum allowable degradation specified in Table 4.14.2, the tube shall be declared to be defective and tube plugging or sleeving. shall be performed.
In determining that a defect exists at a given tube location, indications from several ECT's may*be averaged during a given inspection, but such averaging shall be based on not less than three ECT's.

4.14.4 Operating allowances for future degradation are tabulated in Table 4 .14 .1.
I 4.14.5 Sleeves will be installed such that, considering the axial location tolerances, swaging does not take place in an area of known degradation. A base line ECT inspection of all newly installed sleeves shall be performed. In addition, all previously installed sleeves shall be inspected or plugged during subsequent steam generator tube inspections.
