Subject:

Docket 50-482: Containment Inservice Inspection Program First Interval, Second Period Owner's Activity Reports Gentlemen:

This submittal provides the Owner's Activity Reports for the second period of the first interval of the WCNOC Containment Inservice Inspection Program. Code Case N-532, "Alternative Requirements to Repair and Replacement Documentation Requirements and Inservice Summary Report Preparation and Submission as Required by IWA-4000 and IWA-6000,"

requires that an Owner's Activity Report (Form OAR-1) be prepared and certified upon completion of each refueling outage. Each Form OAR-1 prepared during an inspection period shall be submitted following the end of the inspection period.

In References 1 and 2, Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corporation (WCNOC) requested use of ASME Code Case N-532 in lieu of current ASME Section Xl reporting requirements. In Reference 3, the USNRC concluded that the proposed alternative to use Code Case N-532 and the clarifications contained within References 1 and 2 provide an acceptable level of quality and safety and approved the use of Code Case N-532 for use at Wolf Creek Generating Station.

The enclosures provide the Owner's Activity Reports for the period of September 3, 2001 through May 19, 2005. This timeframe constitutes the second period of the first interval of the WCNOC Containment Inservice Inspection Program. Within this period, Refueling Outages 12 (RF12), 13 (RF13) and 14 (RF14) occurred. The enclosed Forms OAR-1 (Reports WCRE-I1, 11-P2-RF12; WCRE-11, 11-P2-RF13; and WCRE-11, 11-P2-RF14) correspond to these outages.

RA 016-0001 Page 2 of 2 The required 5-year frequency for conducting IWL examinations occurs within periods 1 and 3 of the WCNOC Containment Inservice Inspection Program. Therefore, no IWL examinations were performed during this period (period 2).

There are no commitments contained within this letter.

If you have any questions concerning this matter, please contact me at (620) 364-4126 or Ms. Diane Hooper at (620) 364-4041.

Attachment I RF-12 IWE Examination Revealing Flaw or Area Of Degradation Exceeding Acceptance Standards

1) Description of flaw or area, including the extent of degradation, and the conditions that led to the degradation.

Localized pitting was found in the liner floor of the Incore tunnel sump. The pits were of various sizes, % to 2 inches in diameter, 1/32 to 5/32 inch in depth. Holes in the coating on the liner floor had permitted this pitting to initiate. The holes in the coating were caused by inadequate protection of the coating during a welding operation on nearby piping and components. The inadequate protection allowed sparks and slag from the welding to burn holes in the coating, which allowed the pitting to initiate.

2) The acceptability of each flaw or area.

The areas were acceptable for continued service as sufficient thickness of the liner exists at the bottom of the pits to maintain the liner plate function.

3) A description of necessary corrective actions.

The coating on the sump liner was repaired to prevent further pitting or loss of material.

Attachment 1 RF-1 3 IWE Examination Revealing Flaw or Area Of Degradation Exceeding Acceptance Standards Flaws in the Liner of the Sump at 270 Degrees

1) Description of flaw or area, including the extent of degradation, and the conditions that led to the degradation.

Localized pitting was found in the liner of the sump at 270 degrees. The pits were of various sizes, ranging from isolated 1/16 inch diameter to clustered pitting with a major diameter of 3/8 inch in width, and from 3/32 to 7/64 inch in depth. Degradation of the surface coating by aging and perhaps localized damage, combined with being normally wet, has led to this corrosion.

2) The acceptability of each flaw or area.

The areas were acceptable for continued service as sufficient thickness of the liner exists at the bottom of the pits to maintain the liner plate function.

3) A description of necessary corrective actions.

The coating on the sump liner was repaired to prevent further pitting or loss of material.

4) Description of flaw or area, including the extent of degradation, and the conditions that led to the degradation.

Pitting was noted at the 11:00 position (looking DS). The largest pits measured were 1/16 inch in depth and 1/8 inch in diameter. Degradation of the surface coating by aging and perhaps localized damage led to this corrosion.

5) The acceptability of each flaw or area.

The areas were acceptable for continued service as sufficient thickness of the liner exists at the bottom of the pits to maintain the liner plate function.

6) A description of necessary corrective actions.

Attachment I RF-14 IWE Examination Revealing Flaw or Area Of Degradation Exceeding Acceptance Standards Flaws in the Liner of the Sump at 90 Degrees

1) Description of flaw or area, including the extent of degradation, and the conditions that led to the degradation.

Pitting was found in the liner of the sump at 90 degrees. The pit sizes on the bottom of the liner were clusters ranging from 1/2 inch long by 1/2 inch wide to a maximum of 3/4 inch long by 5/8 inch wide, and from 1/32 to 3/32 inch in depth. One pit was noted on the south wall of the liner approximately 9 inches up from the bottom, it measured 1 inch long by 1/2 inch wide by 3/32 inch deep. Degradation of the surface coating by aging and perhaps localized damage, combined with being normally wet, has led to this corrosion.

2) The acceptability of each flaw or area.

The areas were acceptable for continued service, as sufficient thickness of the liner exists at the bottom of the pits to maintain the liner plate function.

3) A description of necessary corrective actions.

The coating on the sump liner was repaired to prevent further pitting or loss of material.

Reference WO 05-271950-001 and CCP 11753 Flaws located on Containment Dome Liner

4) Descri~otion of flaw or area, including the extent of degradation, and the conditions that led to the degradation.

Indentations were noted on the dome liner at 2201 ft. elevation and 358° azimuth. There were 10 indentations identified, 4 in a coated area that were characterized as "deformation' and "other signs of distress", and the other 6 in a non-coated area that were characterized as udeformation". The size of the indentations were 1/8 inch in diameter by 1/32 inch in depth. The indentations have the appearance of a mark left by a chipping hammer and have an old appearance. Based on this information, the indentations most likely occurred during fabrication of the liner plate or construction and erection.

5) The acceptability of each flaw or area.

The areas were acceptable for continued service as sufficient thickness of the liner exists at the bottom of the deformation to maintain the liner plate function.

6) A description of necessary corrective actions.

No corrective actions were necessary.
