Subject:
Docket Nos. 50-361, and 50-362 Steam Generator Tubesheet Inspections San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station Units 2 and 3
Reference:
Letter from the Nuclear Energy Institute to R. J. Barrett, NRC dated February 4, 2003,
Subject:
"Steam Generator Tubesheet Inspection Information"
Dear Sir or Madam:
The Referenced letter responded to a Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC ) request for Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) to coordinate utility responses to steam generator questions at several pressurized water reactors. As a result, NEI developed a template for utilities to use in responding to the NRC request.
Enclosures 1 and 2 to this letter provide the completed templates for San Onofre Unit 2 and Unit 3 respectively.
Please contact Mr. J. L. Rainsberry at (949) 368-7420 if you have any questions or require additional information regarding these responses.
Sincerely, Enclosures cc:
E. W. Merschoff, Regional Administrator, NRC Region IV B. M. Pham, NRC Project Manager, San Onofre Units 2, and 3 C. C. Osterholtz, NRC Senior Resident Inspector, San Onofre Units 2 & 3 PO Box 128 San Clemente, CA 92674-0128 949-368-7501 Fax 949-368-7575 J

As reported in 15 day letter in Tables and Appendices. The table summarizes the number of tubes repaired and active degradation mechanisms found. Each tube is only counted once in this listing, although it may also have an eddy current indication of a type below the point in the listing where it appears. The appendices provide the complete results of the steam generator tubing inspection. For Unit 2, Table 3 lists 10 tubes with circumferential indications within the tubesheet. By examination the appendices indicate an additional tube that contains a circumferential indication. This additional tube contained another pluggable indication.
Notes (con't.)
4a Prior to 1993 - No rotating coil examinations; Cycle 7 and later inspections were Rotating Coil Technology (RCT) tested down to TTS-2" then to TTS-3". For the Cycle 11 and Unit 2 Cycle 12 outages (2000-2002) RCT tested down to TTS-5'.
4b The landmarks to determine the inspection extent are: 1)
Prior to Unit 3 cycle 12 (Jan. 2003) Nominal top-of-tubesheet. 2) Unit 3 Cycle 12 and upcoming outages -
Bottom of expansion transition.
5 Unit 2 has experienced degradation within the tubesheet since 1993. These indications have been reported to NRC pursuant to the technical specification requirement via the "15 Day" letter following each inspection. This refers to previous inspections through Cycle 11.
6 Unit 3 has experienced degradation within the tubesheet since 1999. These indications have been reported to NRC pursuant to the technical specification requirement via the "15 Day" letter following each inspection. This refers to previous inspections through Cycle 11.
