Title	Liquid Penetration Examination Results in Indication on Reactor Vessel Head Penetration
Event Description	On September 14, 2013, during the A1R17 Braidwood Station Unit 1 refueling outage, an inservice Liquid Penetration examination was performed on the previously repaired Penetration 69. This repair was performed during A1R16. The PT [Penetrant Testing] examination revealed 22 recordable indication and 5 non-relevant indications. Rounded indications that exceed 3/16" are rejectable. All 22 indications are rounded and 13 of these indications exceed the 3/16" criteria. This is reportable pursuant to 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(ii)(A) since the as found indication did not meet the applicable acceptance criteria referenced in ASME Code Case N-729-1 to remain in-service without repair. NRC Resident Inspector has been informed.
