MILLSTONE POWER STATION UNITS 2 AND 3 NORTH ANNA POWER STATION UNITS 1 AND 2 SURRY POWER STATION UNITS 1 AND 2 COMMITMENT TO MAINTAIN SEVERE ACCIDENT MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES 7
The Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) Nuclear Strategic Issues Advisory Committee (NSIAC) recently approved an Industry Initiative to implement and maintain Severe Accident Management Guidelines (SAMGs).
This letter establishes commitments related to SAMGs for Millstone Power Station Units 2 and 3 (MPS2 and 3), North Anna Power Station Units 1 and 2 (NAPSI and 2), and Surry Power Station Units I and 2 (SPSI and 2).
These guidelines would be used by emergency response personnel during accident conditions that progress beyond the mitigation capabilities described in Emergency Operating Procedures (EOPs).
SAMG strategies are intended to arrest the progression of fuel damage, maintain the capability of the containment as long as possible, and minimize radiological releases.
The new SAMG commitments are listed in Attachment 1.
It is expected that NRC staff personnel will conduct periodic inspection of our SAMGs and performance deficiencies, if any, will be assessed using the Reactor Oversight Process.
We also understand that inspection activities will not extend to NRC review and approval of SAMG strategies, or the use of equipment described in the SAMGs.
If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Thomas Szymanski at 804-273-3065.
Sincerely, David A. Heacock President and Chief Nuclear Officer Virginia Electric and Power Company,
