i-DESCRIPTION AND SAFETY ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED CHANGES TO APPENDIX A TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS OF ,
FACILITY OPERATING LICENSES i NPF-37, NPF-66, NPF-72, AND NPF-77 i l
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED CHANGE (
The purpose of this supplemental:ocusst is to approve additional changes to a ;
previously submitted Technical Specificat;on (TS) change request for an alternate l repair criteria (ARC) for steam Generators. The ARC being requested is designated as i the F* criteria. This criteria will be used for the Byron and Braidwood Unit 1, D4 !
series, recirculating steam generators. On November 3,1994, the NRC requested l additionalinformation on the F* submittal and clarification of the F* tube definition.
This request was answered in a letter submitted on December 2,1994, from D.
Saccomando to the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation. In the letter, Comed stated that a supplemental amendment for F*, revising the Technical Specifications, would be submitted by February 3,1995. The NRC also requested a change to the bases section of TS to show that the maximum postulated accident leakage from cracks allowed to remain in service through the use of the F* criterien and other criteria, for example, the interim plugging criteria (IPC), will continue to be within the allowable leakage limits under accident conditions. ,
i 1
- 1. Description of Current Requirements:
The existing Technical Specification Surveillance Requirements (TSSR) 4.4.5, provides for the steam generator (SG) sample selection, inspection, inspection frequency, acceptance criteria, and required reports to the NRC. Currently at Byron and Braic'wod, if a steam generator tube is found to be defective and the defect is located within the tubesheet, the tube is removed from service or repaired. I The current Technical Specification requirements for " Steam Generators" has no criteria for an alternate repair of steam generator tubes other than the one volt IPC. !
The original submittal for F*, submitted on May 20,1994, requested the approval of i the alternate repair criteria, and would place the definitions, acceptance criteria, l reportability requirements, and bases in the Byron and Braidwood Technical Specifications. :
K:nla\bwd\tstrsupl\4
I After review of the original F* package, the NRC requested clarification of the definition for a F* tube and also requested the inclusion of the F* leakage in the accident ,
, leakage limits. The accident !eakage limit was defined in the Steam Generator bases section for the IPC amendment request.
The following paragraphs stating the accident leakage limits were added to the Steam Generator bases section with the approval of IPC.
For Byron:
"For Unit 1, Cycle 7, tubes experiencing outer diameter stress corrosion cracking within the thickness of the tube support plates will be dispositioned in accordance with Specification 4.4.5.4.a.11. The operating period may be adjusted to less than the full operating cycle to meet the maximum site allowable primary-to-secondary leakage limit for End of Cycle Main Steam Line Break conditions. The leakage limit,12.8 gpm, includes the accident leakage from a faulted steam generator and the operational leakage of the three remaining intact steam generators equal to the Specification 3.4.6.2.c leakage limit."
For Braidwood: ;
"For Unit 1, Cycle 5, tubes experiancing outer diameter stress corrosion cracking within the thickness of the tube support plates will be dispositioned in accordance !
with Specification 4.4.5.4.a.11."
)
The IPC amendment was issued after the original submittal date for F* Therefore, these changes are being made to accommodate the requested changes from the NRC i and to update the Steam Generator Technical Specifications with the issuance of the IPC amendment.
- 2. Bases for the Current Requirements:
The surveillance requirements for inspection of the SG tubos ensure that the structural integrity of this portion of the RCS will be maintained. The program for inservice inspection of SG tubes b 'oased on a modification of Regulatory Guide 1.83, Revision
- 1. Inservice inspection of SG tubes is essential to maintain cuwillance of the condition of the tubes to detect evidence of mechanical damage or progressive degradation due to design, manufacturing errors, or in service conditions that lead to corrosion. Inservice inspections of steam generator tubing also provides a means of characterizing the nature and cause of any tube degradation so that corrective measures can be taken.

.--_l
- 3. Description of the Need for Amending the Technical Specifications:
The number of SG tubes identified during the inspection process that have required corrective action has increased significantly in the latest Byron and Braidwood refueling outages. In order to minimize the number of tubes being plugged and extend steam generator life expectancy, increased flexibility is necessary to reduce the number of SG tubes being removed from service. Consequently, an alternate repair criteria (ARC) designated as the F* criteria is being requested for consideration as an acceptable alternative. The F* methodology establishes a means to justify leaving tubes in service which have indications within the rolled region of the tubesheet.
Application of the F* criterion with the use of other criteria, for example IPC, will continue to restrict the postulated maximum accident leakage to within the allowed leakage limits and will be specified in the TS bases.
The NRC requested clarification for the F* tube definition by defining the expression for the F* tube that it "contains sound expanded tubing within the F* distance."
The F* criteria was qualified by " Babcock & Wilcox Nuclear Technologies (BWNT)
Topical Report BAW-10196 P, Revision 1. W-D4 F* Qualification Report. This report was included in the original submittal from J. Bauer to W.T. Russell dated May 20, ;
1994.
Byron and Braidwood are requesting a generic wording change when referring to the ;
vendor Topical Reports in the bases. Changing the acceptance criteria to reference i the current NRC approved BWNT Topical Report BAW 10196 P will reduce the burden I and expense for Byron and Braidwood by reducing the need for additional amendment requests. The proposed editorial change removes the reference to a specific revision of the vendor report in order to reduce the number of amendment requests required by Comed. In referencing the current NRC approved Topical Report, the burden on the NRC Technical Review staff for review of additional amendment requests can also be minimized. As new methodologies are developed for the BWNT F* methodology, Comed will have the option to uso the advanced process after NRC approval, subject to any limitations and restrictions noted by the NRC staff. The NRC had suggested these changes for the sleeving amendment to account for the advances in technologies.
- 4. Description of the Proposed Amendment:
The changes proposed in this supplemental amendment are contained in the A, C, D, E, and F inserts of Attachment C. Inserts A, C, and D have been revised to reflect the proper numerical identification after issuance of the IPC amendment.

The NRC requested additional information to the F* submittal on the clarification of the F* tube definition by either defining the expression used or changing the wording to standard industry nomenclature.
In the request for additiona! information, the NRC also requested clarification to the bases section to show that the maximum postulated accident leakage from cracks allowable to remain in service by use of the F* criterion and other criteria, such as the interim plugging criteria (IPC), will continue to be within the allowed leakage limits j under accident conditions.
Spnification 4.4.5.2, Steam Generator Tube Samole Selection and insoection Insert "A" has been revised numerically to reflect the issuance of the IPC amendment l with the wording changes to make the insert consistent with other Unit 1 amendments.
Soecification 4.4.5.4, Acceotance Criteria insert "B" remains unchanged.
insert "C" defines the F* distance and F* tube acceptance criteria as follows:
- 12) F* Distance is the distance into the tubesheet from the secondary face of the tubesheet or the top of the last hardroll, whichever is further into the tubesheet, that has been determined to be 1.7 inches. '
- 13) F* Tube is a Unit 1 SG tube with degradation below the F* distance and has no indications of degradation (i.e., no indication of cracking) within the F* distance. Defects contained in an F* tube are not dependant on l flaw geometry.
The numbering for the specifications have been revised to reflect the issuance of the IPC amendment.
Specification 4.4.5.5. Reoorts The original wording for insert D remains unchanged. The section is revised to reflect the issuance of the IPC amendment and will be inserted on a new TS page,3/4 4-17b. !
I Kinla\twd\fstrsupl\4 4 l

Bases for 3/4.4.5. Steam Generators The statement added to paragraph three of the bases remains unchanged. ,
insert "E" identifies the qualification report used as the technical bases for the -
alternate repair criteria, F* and will be inserted on page B 3/4 4-3b as follows: i i
"For Unit 1, plugging or repair is not required for tubes with degradation within ;
the tubesheet area which fall under the alternate tube plugging criteria defined :
as F*. The F* Criteria is based on " Babcock & Wilcox Nuclear Technologies I (BWNT) Topical Report BAW-10196 P."
F* tubes meet the structural integrity requirements with appropriate margins for safety as specified in Regulatory Guide 1.121 and the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section 111, Subsection NB and Division l Appendices, for normal operating and faulted conditions."
1 The basis for steam generator tube surveillance and plugging / repair is to ensure that the tube structural integrity is maintained. The F" criteria was developed tc preclude the unnecessary plugging of tubes by allowing tubes with degradation below the F*
distance to remain in. service. A statement will be added to paragraph four in the bases to show that the maximum postulated accident leakage from cracks that are allowed to remain in service by the use of the F* criterion and the use of other criteria, (i.e., IPC, the interim plugging criteria for Outer Diameter Stress Corrosion Cracking),
will continue to be within the allowed leakage limits under accident conditions.
Insert "F" reads as follows: )
For Byron:
"The leakage limit,12.8 gpm, includes the accident leakage from IPC in addition to the accident leakage from F* on the faulted steam generator and the operational leakage limit of Specification 3.4.6.2.c. The operational leakage limit of Specification 3.4.6.2.c in each of the three remaining intact steam generators shall include the operational leakage from F*."
For Braidwood:
i "The leakage limit,9.1 gpm, includes the accident leakage from IPC in addition to the accident leakage from F* on the faulted steam generator and the operational leakage limit of Specification 3.4.6.2.c. The operational leakage limit of Specification 3.4.6.2.c in each of the three remaining intact steam generators shall !
include the operational leakage from F*."

- 5. Impact of Proposed Change The proposed Technical Specification change is requested to provide Comed with an alternative for dispositioning degraded steam generator tubes. Use of the F* criteria provides benefits by maintaining tube heat transfer capabilities and by reducing personnel radiation exposure obtained during plugging /steeving oper:.tions.
6.' Schedule Requirements:
Commonwealth Edison Company (CECO) requests approval of the F* Criteria amendment prior to the Byron Unit 1 mid-cycle outage, B1P02, scheduled for September 15,1995.
