4.17 STEAM GENERATORS Applicability Applies to inservice inspection of the steam generator tubes.

Objective To verify the operability of each steam generator and ensure the structural integrity of the tubes as part of the reactor coolant boundary.

Specification Each steam generator shall be demonstrated OPERABLE by performance of the following augmented inservice inspection program and the requirements of Specification 1.3.

4.17.1 Steam Generator Sample Selection and Inspection Each steam generator shall be determined OPERABLE during shutdown by selecting and inspecting steam generators as specified in Table 4.17-1.

4.17.2 Steam Generator Tube Sample Selection and Inspection The steam generator tube minimum sample size, inspection result classification, and the corresponding action required shall be as specified in Table 4.17-2A. The inspection result classification and the corresponding action required-for inspection of " specific limited areas" (see Paragraph 4.17.2e) shall be as specifed in Table 4.17-28. The inservice inspection of steam generator tubes shall be performed at the frequencies specified in Specification 4.17.3 and the inspected tubes shall be verified acceptable per Specification l 4.17.4. Tne tubes selected for these inspections shall include at least 3% of the total number of tubes in both steam generators and be selected on a random basis except:

a. If experience in similar plants with similar water chemistry indicates critical areas to be inspected, then at least 50% of the tubes inspected shall be from these critical areas.
b. The first sample inspection during inservice inspection (subsequent to the first inservice inspection) of each steam generator shall include:

1 All nonplugged tubes that previously had detectable wall penetrations (>20%), and

2. Special area tubes pursuant to Specification 4.17.4a6 Proposed Amendment 122, Revision 1 4-51

4.17.2 (continued)

c. The second and third sample inspections during each inservice inspection may be less than a full tube inspection by concentrating (selecting at least 50% of the tubes to be ,

inspected) the inspection on those areas of the tube sheet array and on those portions of the tubes where tubes with imperfections were previously found.

d. A tube ' inspection (pursuant to Specification 4.17.4.5) shall be performed on each selected tube. If any selected tube does not permit the passage of the eddy current probe for a tube inspection, this shall be recorded and an adjacent tube shall be selected and subjected to a tube inspection. (" Adjacent" is interpreted to mean the nearest tube capable of being inspected.) Tubes which do not permit passage of the eddy current probe will be considered as degraded tubes when classifying inspection results.
e. Tubes in specific limited areas which are distinguished by unique operating conditions and/or physical construction (for example, tubes adjacent to the open inspection lane or tubes whose 15th tube support plate hole is not broached but drilled) may be excluded from random samples if all such tubes in the specific area of a steam generator are inspected. No credit will be taken for those tubes in meeting minimum sample size requirements.

The results of each sample inspection shall be classified into one of the following three categories: c Category Inspection Results C-1 Less than 5% of the total tubes inspected are degraded tubes and none of the inspected tubes are defective.

C-2 One or more tubes, but not more than 1% of the total tubes inspected are defective, or between 5% and 10%

of the total tubes inspected are degraded tubes.

C-3 More than 10% of the total tubes inspected are degraded tubes or more than 1% of the inspected tubes are defective.

Note: . In all inspections, previously degraded tubes must exhibit significant (>10 % ) further wall penetrations to be included in the above percentage calculations.

4.17.3 Inspection Frequencies The above required inservice inspections of steam generator tubes shall be performed at the following frequencies:

4.17.3 Inspection Frequencies (Continued)

a. The first inservice inspection shall be performed during the first refueling outage. Subsequent inservice inspections shall be performed at intervals of not less than 12 nor more than 24 calendar months af ter the previous inspection. If two consecutive inspections following service result in all inspection results falling into the C-1 category or if two consecutive inspections demonstrate that previously observed degradation has not continued and no significant additional degradation has occurred, the inspection interval may be extended to a maximum of once per 40 months.
b. If the results of the inservice inspection of a steam generator conducted in accordance with Table 4.17-2A and/or Table 4.17-2B l at 40-month intervals falls in Category C-3, the inspection frequency shall be increased to at least once per 20 months.

The increase in inspection frequency shall apply until a subsequent inspection meets the conditions specified in 4.17.3a and the interval can be extended to a 40-month period.

c. Additional, unscheduled inservice inspections shall be performed on each steam generator in accordance with the first sample inspection specified in Table 4.17-2A during the l shutdown subsequent to any of the following conditions:
1. A seismic occurrence greater than the Operating Basis Earthquake,
2. A loss-of-coolant accident requiring automatic actuation of the engineered safeguards, or
3. A main steam line or feedwater line break as defined in the USAR.
d. Af ter primary-to-secondary tube leaks (not including leaks originating from tube-to-tube sheet welds) in excess of the limits of Specification 3.1.6.9, an inspection of the affected steam generator will be performed in accordance with the following criteria.
1. If the leaking tube falls within one of the Special Area groups designated in either Table 4.17-3 or Table 4-17-4, all of the tubes in this group in this steam generator will be inspected.

2. If the leaking tube does not fall within one of the Special Area groups, an inspection will be performed on the affected steam generator in accordance with Table 4.17-2A with an initial inspection sample size of 6% of the tubes in the affected steam generator.

4.17.4 Definitions l

a. As used in this Specification:
1. Imperfection means an exception to the dimensions, finish or contour of a tube from that required by fabrication drawings or specifications. Eddy-current testing indications of less than 20% of the nominal tube wall thickness, if detectable, may be considered as imperfections.
2. Degradation means a service-induced cracking, wastage, wear or general corrosion occurring on either inside or outside of a tube.
3. Degraded Tube means a tube containing imperfections >20% .

of the nominal wall thickness caused by degradation.- l

4. Defective Tube means a tube containing an imperfection i

>40% of the nominal tube wall thickness unless higher Timits are shown acceptable.by analysis. Defective tubes shall be plugged.

5. Tube Inspection means an inspection of the steam generator tube from the point of entry completely to the point of exit (except as noted in 4.17.2c and 4.17.4a6). l
6. Special Area Tubes include those tubes which have shown a significant amount of degradation throughout their operating history. These include peripheral tubes and lane region tubes designated in Tables 4-17-3. and 4-17-4.
b. The steam generator shall be determined OPERABLE after completing the corresponding actions required by Table 4.17-2A (and Table 4.17-28 if provisions of Paragraph 4.172e are utilized.)

4.17.5 Reports

a. Following each inservice inspection of steam generator tubes, the number of tubes plugged in each steam generator shall be reported to the Commission within 30 days. l Proposed Amendment 122, Revision 1 4-54

RANCHO SECO UNIT 1 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Surveillance Standards 4.17.5 Reports (Continued)

b. The results of the steam generator tube inservice inspection shall be included in the Annual Operating Report for the period l in which this inspection was completed. This report shall include:
1. Number and extent of tubes inspected.
2. Location and percent of wall-thickness penetration for each indication of an imperfection.
3. Identification of tubes plugged.
c. Results of steam generator tube inspections wnich fall into Category C-3 and require notification of the Commission shall be reported pursuant to Specification 6.9.5P prior to resumption of plant operation. The written followup of this report shall provide a description of investigations conducted to determine cause of the tube degradation and corrective measures taken to prevent recurrence.

Bases The Surveillance Requirements for inspection of the steam generator tubes ensure that the structural integrity of this portion of the RCS will be maintained. The surveillance requirements of steam generator tubes are based on a modification of B+W - Standard Technical Specifications dated June 1, 1976. Inservice inspection of steam generator tubing is essential in order to maintan surveillance of the conditions of the tubes in the event that there is evidence of mechanical damage or progressive degradation due to design, manufacturing errors, or inservice conditions that lead to corrosion.

Inservice inspection 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. For example, historical data has shown that certain areas of the steam generators are particularly susceptible to corrosion and degradation. Consequently, the inservice inspecton now includes provisions for a more indepth inspection of a Special area group of tubes specified in Table 4.17-3 and Table 4.17-4.

Proposed Amendment 122, Revision 1 -

L .

RANCHU SECU UlJIT 1 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Surveillance Standards Bases (Continued)

Operational experience has shown that tube defects can be the result of unique operating conditions or physical arrangements in certain areas of the steam gene rato rs. A full inspection of all of the tubes in such limited areas will provide complete assurance that degraded or defective tubes in these areas are detected. Because no credit is taken for these distinctive tubes in the constitution of the first sample or its results, the requirements for the first sample are unchanged. Tnis requirement is essentially equivalent to and meets the intent of the requirements set forth in IJRC Regulatory Guide 1.83, Revision 1 and does not reduce the margin of safety provided by those requirements.

Wastage-type defects are unlikely with AVT chemistry treatment of the secondary coolant. However, even if a defect should develop in service, it will be found during scheduled inservice steam generator tube examinations.

Plugging will be required for defective tubes. Steam generator tube inspections of operating plants have demonstrated the capability to reliably detect degradation that has penetrated 20 of the original tube wall thickness.

Whenever the results of any steam generator tubing inservice inspection fall into Category C-3, these results will be reported to the Commission pursuant to Specification 6.9.5P prior to resumption of plant operation. Such cases l will be considered by the Commission on a case-by-case basis and may result in a requirement for analysis, laboratory examinations, tests, additional eddy-current inspection and revision of the Technical Specifications, if nece ssa ry.  ;

Docket No. 50-312 LICENSEE: Sacramento Municipal Utility District FACILITY: Rancho Seco Nuclear Generating Station

SUBJECT:

SUMMARY

OF MEETING HELD ON NOVEMBER 20, 1984 WITH SACRAMENTO MUNICIPAL UTILITY DISTRICT (SMUD) TO DISCUSS STEAM GENERATOR TUBE FAILURE OF RANCHO SEC0 NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION The Rancho Seco Nuclear Generating Station had experienced three shut downs in recent months due to steam generator failures. As a result of these failures the NRC staff requested a meeting with SMUD to discuss the cause of the failures and the licensees program for addressing the steam generator failures. The meeting was held on November 20, 1984 in Bethesda, Maryland.

The attendees list (Enclosure 1) and copies of the viewgraph used at the meeting (Enclosure 2) are attached.

The tube failures have been occuring in the lane tube area of the steam generators from the 15th support plate to the upper tube sheet. The failure occurrs initially as a small leak probably due to micro cracks that grow slowly. On cool down the cracks open up as the tube goes from compression to tension. The licensee hypothesized that the micro cracks are formed by a combination of corrosion due to concentrated chemic:ls carried by the moisture and by normal tube loadings. The cracks are then propagated by high cycle fatigue at low alternating stresses. The licensee noted that of the 31,000 I Rancho Seco Steam Generator tubes, to date 66 have been plugged and of these 6 were leaking.

The licensee described the approaches being considered to correct the problem of lane tube failures in B&W plants. Methods being considered include sleeving the lane tubes from the primary face of the upper tube sheet through the 15 tube support plate, and lane flow blockers.

The licensee then discussed the eddy current tube inspection program at Ranch i Seco. The licensee noted that during the last outage caused by a steam generator leak they went to an improved eddy current inspection program. In addition a more conservative plugging criteria was used in establishing which tubes should be plugged. As a result more tubes were plugged on both steam generators. The licensee noted that during the refueling outage scheduled for early in 1985 two tubes would be removed for examination. Finally the licensee described their secondary water chemistry control program.

The staff noted that the current Technical Specification for additional

' unscheduled inservice inspections of the steam generator is based on 1131 j

S g activity in the secondary IJ I side of the steam generators.

concentration depended ThestafffurtherstatedthatthesecondarysideI}Mrytosecondaryside on the primary side coolant activity as well as pr tube leakage. Therefore primary to secondary side coolant leakage could be well in excess of the Technical Specification leakage limit for reactor operation before the Technical Specifications would require the additional unscheduled inservice inspection. The staff indicated that the current Technical Specification is not an adequate indication of tube degradation and noted that when plant shut down is required because the Technical Specification leakage limit is reached that the additional unscheduled inservice inspection should be conducted during the shut down. The licensee stated that when the plant is shut down because of tube leakage in the tube lane area, the lane tubes are inspected as well as some additional tubes on either side of the lane tubes (wedge tubes). The licensee comitted to propose a revision the Technical Specifications to specify that if the leak occurs in the lane tube area, the lane tubes and wedge tubes will be inspected. If the leak occurs in other areas, inspection will be in accordance with table 4.17-2 in the Technical Specifications. We stated that this would be acceptable.
