Mr. Grobe opened the meeting by discussing the purpose and function of the IMC 0350 panel and the importance of the panel maintaining cognizance of public communications related to Davis-Besse. To ensure adequate communications, the panel decided to have various staff members brief the panel on a periodic basis.
Mr. Grobe requested that the panel review the individuals in the internal e-mail group established for IMC 0350 communications and suggest any additions. Once set, all e-mail communications will use the defined group.
1.
Discussion of Repair/Quarantine Mr. Bateman briefed the panel on the licensees repair plans and the status of NRC review activities. NRR/DE has concurred on the water jet cutting of the reactor vessel head to remove nozzles 3 and 11 and is reviewing the licensees plans for nozzle 2.
NRR/projects has the lead for documenting the meeting minutes of the phone calls with the licensee to discuss repair plans. The panel will need this information to close out CAL items.
NRR/DE has an outline for the final safety evaluation that will be required for head repairs. Three relief requests have been received in HQ to date. The panel agreed, for the purposes of when the safety evaluation will need to be issued, that the start of repairs begins with the buttering. One action item from the discussion was generated for Mr. Grobe to contact Mr. Bergendahl to confirm that the licensee understands the process.
The licensee continues to pursue parallel paths of repair and replacement for the reactor vessel head and expects to make a final decision on repair or replacement within the next 2 weeks. One action item was generated for NRR/Projects to begin review of the licensing issues/process that are involved in head replacement.
The panel requested NRR/DE updates weekly.
2.
Discussion and approval of Charter The Charter was discussed and several changes were suggested. Once the changes are made, the charter will be sent out for final concurrence on May 3.
3.
Discuss or review Process Plan, Restart Checklist The panel agreed to use the initial process plan tasks as set out in IMC 0350 procedure and maintain it as a living document. Changes made during panel meetings will be updated in the process plan and attached to the meeting minutes.

Input for Abnormal Occurrence (AO) Report on Davis-Besse The panel discussed the preliminary AO writeup on the Davis-Besse reactor vessel head degradation. RIII took an action item to complete the writeup and submit it directly to RES, with a copy to NRR by May 17.
8.
Risk evaluation Task Interface Agreement (TIA), Phase 1 and 2 worksheets The draft TIA was reviewed and several changes were agreed upon. Three action items were generated. The first was for RIII to send in the TIA on 5/3. The second item was to send a list of questions to the licensee regarding their safety/risk assessment, also on 5/3. The third action was for the risk analysts to clearly define the risk question(s) to be answered during the phase 3 assessment process. The panel decided on a due date for the risk assessment of June 14, but allowed some flexibility given the complexity of the analysis. The panel requested periodic updates from the risk analysts.
