CONFERENCE CALL

SUMMARY

REGARDING VERBAL AUTHORIZATION OF RELIEF REQUESTS On December 16, 2004, the NRC staff held a teleconference call with Southern California Edison (SCE) regarding the following three relief requests:

1. ISI-3-11, Revision 1, which seeks relief from the ASME Code for performing temperbead welds on the pressurizer heater sleeves, submitted October 15, 2004, and supplemented by letters dated October 25 and December 2, 2004.
2. ISI-3-12, which seeks relief from the ASME Code in characterizing flaws and performing successive inspections on the pressurizer heater sleeves, submitted October 15, 2004, and supplemented by letters dated October 25 and December 2, 2004.
3. ISI-3-13, which seeks relief for using the embedded flaw repair technique in lieu of requirements of the ASME Code, submitted October 26, 2004, and supplemented by letter dated December 2, 2004.

During the teleconference call, the licensee summarized the circumstances which led to their need for the relief requests and the nature of their urgent timeline. Based on their projected maintenance schedule, SCE estimates that the startup of SONGS Unit 3 could be as early as December 20, 2004.

The NRC staff asked and received a confirmation from the licensee regarding its ultrasonic examination (UT) procedure of weld pads, to ensure that UT was conducted to the maximum extent possible both before and after machining of the nozzle.

In accordance with NRR Office Instruction LIC-102, Relief Request Reviews, the NRC staff verbally authorized the implementation of relief requests ISI-3-11, 12, and 13 for SONGS Unit 3. The NRC technical staff has completed its review and determined that the licensees
