RE: Query: One Pager on North Anna Earthquake Issue The question I currently have is how does the Mineral Va. earthquake impact what we were doing with regard to GI-199? Was the earthquake "bounded" by the GI-199 information or do we need to re-assess what we need licensee's to analyze for their plants?
- Eric, The ground motion estimates from the earthquake in VA strongly appear to validate the NRC's current seismic hazard assessment approaches and the basis for GI-199 reviews. When the new hazard estimates for performing the GI-199 GL evaluations become available, the ground motion estimate at the NA site will definitely bound the VA earthquake response spectrum measured at the plant. My expectation is that the licensee's long term action will, in some fashion, refer to its future response to the GL as a means to ascertain its seismic adequacy and desired CDF of 1 OE-5 or less. Whether the GI-1 99 ground motion (GMRS) should become the new seismic design basis for the plant, that is a regulatory decision that we need to ponder carefully before rushing into a decision at this stage.
