essentially 100 percent of reactor pressure vessel shell welds. (For 
the purpose of this augmented examination, ``essentially 100 percent'' 
means more than 90 percent of the examination volume of each weld,

examinations and when the required examinations are to be completed.

examinations and what percentage of the involved welds they anticipate 
being able to examine.
