4.18.5 Acceptenes criterin
-a..
As used in this specifications
- 1.
' Tubing or Tube means that portion of the tube or sleeve which forms the primary system to secondary system pressure boundary. -
2.-
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 below 20% of the nominal tube wall thickness, if detectable, may be considered as' imperfections.
3.
- Degradation means a service-induced cracking, wastage, wear l
or general corrosion occurring'on either the inside or outside of-a tube.
D 4.-
Degraded Tube means;a tube containing imperfections 2 20%_of l
Lthe. nominal _ wall thickness caused by degradation, except where.all. degradation has been spanned by the installation of a sleeve.
5.-
% Degradation means the percentage of the tube wall thickness affected or removed by degradation.
6.
Defect means an imperfection of such severity that it exceeds the plugging limit except where the imperfection has been spanned by the installation of a sleeve. A tube containing a defect in its pressure boundary is defective.
7.
Pluquing Limit means.the imperfection depth at or beyond 40% of the nominal tube wall thickness for which the tube shall be sleeved, rerolled, or removed from service because it may become unserviceable prior.to the next inspection. This does not apply to ODIGA indications within the defined region of the upper tubesheet..These imperfections shall be assessed for continued plant operation in accordance with topical report RAN-10235P, Revision 0.
The reroll repair process will only be used to repair tubes with defects in the upper tubesheet area. The reroll repair process will be performed only once per steam generator tube using a 1 inch roll length. _The new roll area must be free of detectable degradation in order-for the repair to be considered acceptable.
The reroll repair process is described in the topical report, RAN-10232P, Revision 00.
8.
Unserviceable describes the condition of a tube if it leaks or contains a defect large enough to affect its structural integrity in the event of an Operating Basis Earthquake, a loss-
- of-coolant accident, or a steam line or feedwater line break as specified in Specification 4.18.4.c.
9._
Tube Inspection means an inspection of the steam generator tube from the point of' entry completely to the point of exit.
For tubes that have been_ repaired by the reroll process within the upper tubesheet, that portion of the tube above the new roll can be excluded from future periodic inspection requirements because it is no-longer part of the pressure boundary once the repair roll'is installed.
t b.-
The steam generator shall be determined operable after completing the corresponding actions (plug, reroll, or sleeve all tubes
- exceeding.the plugging limit and all tubes containing through-wall cracks) _ required by Table 4.18-2.

m o,
e Btnan The surveillance requirements-for inspection of the steam generator tubes ensure that the structural ~ integrity of this portion of the RCS will be maintained. LThe program for inservice inspection of steam generator tubes is
. based on a modification of Regulatory' Guide 1.83, Revision 1.
Inservice inspection of steam generator tubing is essential in order to maintain surveillance of the conditions of the tubes in the event that there is evidence.of mechanical damage or progressive degradation due to design, i 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.
.In general, steam generator tubes that are degraded beyond the repair limit can either be plugged, sleeved, or rerolled. ' The steam generator (SG) tubes that are plugged are removed from service by the installation of plugs at both ends of the associated tube and thus completely removing the tube from service. When the upper.tubesheet outer diameter intergranular attack
'(ODIGA) alternate repair' criteria is applied, imperfections found within~the defined region of'the upper tubesheet may be left in service under the guidelines of. topical report BAW-10235P, Revision 0.. The defined region begins one inch above the upper tubesheet secondary. face and ends at the nearest tube ro11' transition.
Following a SG inspoction, an operational-assessment is performed to ensure primary-to-secondary leak rates will be maintained within the assumptions of the accident analysis.
. Degraded steam generator. tubes can'also be repaired by the installation of sleeves which span the area of degradation and serve as a replacement pressure boundary for the degraded portion of the tube, thus permitting the tube to remain in service.
Degraded steam generator tubes can also be repaired by the rerolling of the tube'in the upper tubesheet-to create a new roll area and pressure boundary for the. tube.
The zerolling methodology establishes a new pressure boundary below the degradation, thus permitting the tube to remain in service. The degraded-_ tube above the:new roll area can be excluded from future periodic inspection requirements because it is no longer part of the pressure boundary once-the repair roll is installed in the upper tubesheet. The rerolling repair process will only be used to repair defects in the upper tubesheet in
-accordance with BAW-10232P, Revision 00.
.All tubes.which have been repaired using the reroll process will have the new roll area inspected during future inservice inspections.
Defective or degraded tube indications found in the new roll and any indications found in the original roll need not be included in determining the Inspection Results i
Category for the generator inspection..
j The reroll repair-process will'only be used to repair. tubes with defects in Lthe upper tubesheet area..The. reroll repair process will be performed only once per steam generator tube using a 1 inch roll length. 'Thus, multiple applications of.the reroll process to any individual tube is not-acceptable.
.The new roll' area must be free of detectable degradation in order for the repair to be considered acceptable. After'the new roll area is initially ademned acceptable, future degradation in the new roll area will be analyzed to determine if the tube is defective and needs to be removed from service.
~The reroll repair process is described.in the topical report, BAW-10232P, Revision 00..

<q.
a The reroll repair process will only be used to repair tubes with defects in the upper tubesheet area. The reroll repair process will be perfo'rmed only once per steam generator tube using a 1 J
j inch roll length. The new roll area must be free of detectable degradation in order for the repair to be considered acceptable.
I The reroll repair process is described in the topical report, I
BAN-10232P, Revision 00.
8.
Unserviceable describes the condition of a tube if it leaks or contains a defect large enough to affect its structural integrity in the event of an Operating Basis Earthquake, a loss-of-coolant accident, or a steam line or feedwater line break as specified in Specification 4.18.4.c.
9.
Tube Inspection means an inspection of the steam generator tube from the point of entry completely to the point of exit.
For tubes that have been repaired by the reroll process within the upper tubesheet, that portion of the tube above the new roll can be excluded from future periodic inspection requirements because it is no longer part of the pressure boundary once the repair roll is installed.
b.
The steam generator shall be determined operable after completing the corresponding actions (plug, reroll, or sleeve all tubes exceeding the plugging limit and all tubes containing through-wall cracks) required by Table 4.18-2.

a 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 program forinservice inspection of steam generator tubes is based on a modification of Regulatory Guide 1.83, Revision 1. Inservice inspection of steam generator tubing is essential in order to maintain 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, orinservice con &tions 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.
in aaneral. sSteam generator tubes that are degraded beyond the repair limit can either be plugged, sleeved, or rerolled The steam generatorIEfd, tubes that are plugged are removed from service by the installation of plugs at both ends of the associated tube and thus completely removing the tube from service. When the unoer tt,besheet otiter cliameter interaranular attack (ODIGA) alternate repair criter:.a is appl:.ed, : moerfections found within the defined rea:.on of the uoner tubesheet nav be left :.n service under the auidelines of tootcal report BAW-10235P, Rev:.sion 0.
The defined reaion beains one inch above the unoer tubosheet secondary face and ends at the nearest tube roll transition.
Follow:.no a SG inspection, an operational assessment
.s performed to ensure crimarv-to-secondary leak rates w:.ll be mainta:.ned within the assumotions of the accident analysis.
Degraded steam generator tubes can also be repaired by the installation of sleeves which span the area of degradation and serve as a replacement pressure boundary for the degraded portion of the tube, thus permitting the tube to remain in service.
Degraded steam generator tubes can also be repaired by the rerolling of the tube in the upper tubesheet to create a new roll area and pressure boundary for the tube. The rerolling methodology establishes a new pressure boundary below the degradation, thus permitting the tube to remain in service. The degraded tube above the new roll area can be excluded from future periodic inspection requirements because it is no longer part of the pressure boundary once the repair roll is installed in the upper tubesheet. The rerolhng repair process will only be used to repair defects in the upper tubesheet in accordance with BAW-10232P, Revision 00.
All tubes which have been repaired using the reroll process will have the new roll area inspected during future inservice inspechons. Defecdve or degraded tube indications found in the new roll and any in& cations found in die original roll need not be included in determining the inspection Results Category for the generatorinspection.
The reroll repair process will only be used to repair tubes with defects in the upper tubesheet area. The reroll repair process will be performed only once per steam generator tube using a 1 inch roll length.
Thus, multiple applications of the reroll process to any individual tube is not acceptable. The new roll area must be free of detectable degradation in order for the repair to be considered acceptable. After the new roll area is initially deemed acceptable, future degradation in the new roll area will be analyzed Amendment No. 34,44,86,406,448, 110n 473,490,494 l

J to determine if the tube is defedive and needs to be removed from service. The reroll repair process is described in the topical report, BAW-10232P, Revision 00.
