SUMMARY

OF MEETING HELD ON DECEMBER 12, 2002, REGARDING THE ALTERNATE SOURCE TERM SUBMITTAL On December 12, 2002, representatives of Energy Northwest met with the NRC staff to discuss problems that were experienced during the alternate source term (AST) submittal, causing its subsequent withdrawal.

Energy Northwest gave an overview of the submittal errors and discussed actions being taken to revise and later resubmit the amendment request. Errors discovered in the meteorological and main steam line break data were discussed at length. Energy Northwest discussed the revised meteorological conversion errors and revisions that have been verified. Analyses with ARCON96 were performed with the revised meteorological data.

Energy Northwest is still determining the root cause of the submittal errors. The staff asked for feedback on the root cause and Energy Northwest agreed to submit their findings to the NRC.

Energy Northwest thanked the staff for their recommendations and the opportunity to discuss the issues surrounding the submittal. At the conclusion of the meeting, the staff expressed their appreciation to Energy Northwest. An attendance list is provided in the attachment. The slides used during the meeting are available in ADAMS under accession number ML023470090.
