Thanks. I was preoccupied with something at that time hence could not participate in the phone call, sorry.

Becky briefed me on what needs to be done to move the project forward. So standby, I will talk to Bill and get back to you.

Ram, Please find a summary of today's telcon below:

NEI / NRC TELECON - MARCH 4, 2008 - "Proposed Tasks to Address ETSZ Issues" Attendees:

  • NRC - Becky Karas, Cliff Munson, Sarah Gonzales, Jon Ake, Yong Li
  • Industry - Leslie Kass, Adrian Heymer, Robin McGuire, John Richards, Don Moore, Bob Whorton, Jim Chardos, Jeff Munsey, Eddie Grant, Ross Hartleb, Bill Godwin

Purpose:

This telecom was a follow-up discussion with NRC based on their request for additional ihformation' during the February'29 telecon, to discuss details of a plot showing the EPRI Earth Science Team (EST) source zones and Mmax distribution planned for use in the more detailed sensitivity study for the East Tennessee Seismic Zone (ETSZ). A technical summary of these inputs was provided to NRC on March 3 (attached) in preparation for these discussions.

Cliff Munson / Becky, Karas - NRC Staff has reviewed the additional information provided on March 3 and agree with the sensitivity study approach which appears reasonable, but have a few questions:

1. Question that the Woodward-Clyde background source zone seems high
2. Would like to see the effects of individual sources, broken-out by each EST
3. Need coordinates (latitude/longitude) for each of the EPRI seismic sources used
4. Question the minimum magnitude evaluated and magnitude scale Robin McGuire responded to these questions as follows:
