SUBMITTAL PROGRESS On April 1, 2003, representatives of Energy Northwest met with the NRC staff to discuss recent station performance issues and AST submittal progress. The discussion covered responses to recent Davis-Besse lessons learned, the accuracy and completeness of submittals to the NRC, preliminary findings by the licensees evaluation team regarding the AST submittal, and future submittals to the NRC.

Energy Northwest also explained their integration of the Institute of Nuclear Power Operations guidance into existing audit programs. The discussion continued with the AST submittal root cause evaluation. The staff emphasized that it was important to show results from the lessons-learned and to provide a quality product. Finally, Energy Northwest discussed station successes.
