~s rEq~ested by your office, OPE has explored further the screening/selection criteria for.Unresolved Safety Issues (USI's).
Screening/selection criteria, which could be app1ied as an official interpre-tation of the existing definition or new criteria cssociated with a revised definition, can be vie~ed in two parts. First, criteria should be provided to sc:een out those issues that do not sctisfy certain e1e~ents of the definition of a US!.
Secondly, criteria should be provided with regard to how issues passing the initial screening test should be addressed when presented to the Comission for approval as ne'l'i' USI's.
Our recox..;nd2tions for your further consiceration for changes in the existing screening/selection criteria are provided below.
An issue or recom~endation should be screened out from further consideration as a USI if it meets one or more of the initial screening criteria listed in SECY-80-325 (copy attached) or one of the additional criteria listed be 1 O~':
- 1.
The issue is related to safety improvements where existing protection is adequc.te.
- 2.
The issue includes prograr;r;;atic rr.2tters involving il'i1p1er;ientation of issue reso1utions already achieved.
- 3.
The issue includes collections of related issues in lieu of focused critical issues.
(In this regard, an attempt should be made to define the issue so that matters extraneous to the issue a;e eliminated.)

(_ ~~p1i:2tion of the above initial scree~in; criteria st,J~ld result in identifi-cation of sharply foc~se~ issues where the t~si~ 2~equa:y cf the te:h~icc.1 basis for existing safety requirements is in doubt and new knowledge rnwst be deY~loped to res~lve that doubt.
Sele:tion Criteria Issues which pass the initial screening criteria and are then prese~ted to the C0~~ission for consideration as USI's sh~uld address the follo~ing c:u~stions:
- 1.
i:~.ct is the kno1-:n and/or p:*tential deficien:y in the technical be.sis of existing staff 5uides/req~ire~2nts?
- 2.
l:~.::t present safety requfrer,1ents appear to be ir.ad::quate or in doubt?
- 3.
i.*~.at r.e'n' kno'l';ledge_ must be developed to either confirm the adeq:.:acy of the technical bases hhich support existing require~ents or to define
~ew r~qLlire~ents that ~ould restore a~eq~ate protection?
- 4.
i:;..::.t e:ctior.s c.re being taken on operating ree:ctors pending develo;:i::-;ent of new kno~ledge necessary to resolve the issue?
hpplicction of Proposed Screening/Se1ection Criteria If the revised set of criteria had been applied to the original list of USI's, it does not sppear the list would have been altered significantly.
One USI -- System Interactions (A-17) --
~ould probably have required a rewrite to better focus the issue. Others wou1d have required a rewrite to answer the four proposed questions once they had passed the initial screening test.
If the revised scre~ning criteria were ap~lied to the seven candidates proposed in SECY-80-325, the following issues would probably be eliminated as USI's:
- 1.
Long-Term Upgrading of Training and Qualifications of Operating Personnel
- 2.
Operating Procedures
- 3.
C6ntro1 Room Design Issues of SECY-80-325 most likely to be presented to the Corrrnission as candidatei as USI's (pending answers to the proposed set of questions)
\\i.'OUl d be:
- l.
- Shutdown Decay fieat Removal Requirements 2; Seismic Qualification of Equip~ent in Operating Plants
- 3.
Safety Implications of Control Systems The i~sue of 11Cons.ideration of Degraded or t*~=1ted Cores in Safety Revie"toi,.S 11 presented in SECY-80-325 would most likely be revised to a more focused issue.

SeisGic 0Ja1ification of Equip~2nt in Operatinq Plants (Task A-46)
The desiqn crit/er,\\ end methods for the seismic qualification of r..echanical and electrical equ'ip::-2nt in nuclear p:i**:er plants ~.ave undergeine siqnificant change during the course of the corr~-;-;ercial nuclear poh*er program.
Consequently, the margins of safety provided in existing equip~ent to resist sei smi ca lly induced 1 cads and perform the intended safety functions r;;:.y var_v considerably. The seismic qualification of the equip::-.ent in operating plants must, therefore, be re2ssessed to ensure the ability to brin9 the plant to ~ safe shutdown condition when subject to a seismic event.
The objettive of this Unresolved Safety Issue is to establish an explicit set of quidelines that could be used to judge the adeq~acy of t[-.e seisr:,ic qu~lificc:tion of :"!*:-::chjnir:al ;".nd elr:ctrical cquir.;;-.-;2r.t nt ;111 operat~ng plants in lieu of atte~~ting to b5ckfit current desicn criteria for new plants. This guidance will concern equipment reouired to safely shu{down the plant, as ~ell as equip~ent whose function is not required for-safe shutdo.,..*n, but \\\\'hose failure could result in cdverse conditions
\\:hich mi!'.Jht impair shutdo¥.*n functions.
$5fety Implications of Control Systems (Task A-47)
This issue concerns the ootential for accidents or transients beinq made r:1ore severe as a 1esu1t of control syste-:-;-; failures or malfunctions~
Th~se fcilu:-e:s or r..~'ifur1ctions r..ay occur ir1.:e;;t:r1der.t1y or cs a rE:su1t of the accid2nt or transient unjer consideration en~ would be i~ addition to any control syste:~ failure that mav hcve initiated the eve:nt.
~lt~~un~ it is c2~2rally believed that cohtrol syste~ fail~res are n~t li~E:lv to result in loss of safe:tv functions ~hie~ cou1d lead to serious eve:r,ts or result in c.ondit ions that safety systei'.:S are not at.1 e to cc~~ ~it~, in-depth studies have net been perfor~ed to supoort this belief. The potential for an accident that ~ould affect a ~crticular c.o~~rol sys:e~---and the effects of the control system failure~---will difft:r fro~ plant to plant. Therefore, it is not likely t~at it will b~ V':s-::.'ie to d-=velop c;enedc c.ns;:ers to th=se cc*~1:e:-ns, b'Jt rc:.1-.er p~c~.t-s"=:-:ific rev~e1.. *s \\>.'ill be re<:.u*ire::l.
The pur~.:;se of U-,~s L'r.resol\\'er1 Sbft:ty Issue is to. de:fine oeneric ciiteria that r~y be u~~d for n1ant-s~ecific reviews.
A specific subtask cf this issue will be to study U.2 s:e:c.::- ce:-.e:reitor O't'E:rfill trcnsie:r,t in Pi,~s and the r~a:*~::ir.o*.trfi11 trc.r:sier.t in E\\.'?-s to dc-temine and de:fine the need for preventive c.~d/or ~iticating design measures to acco8~)date this transient.

~vdrooen Co~trol reasures and Effects of Hydroge:n 6urns on Safety f~uip;2nt (T2~~ {-(~)
Postulated reactor accidents ~hich result in e degra1ed or melted core can result in oeneratfon and re1ease to the contain~::nt of laroe ouantities of hydroqe:n.
The:
t,yjr-~9E:n is. fon:-;ed from the re-eiction of the iirconium fuel cl~dding with stea~ at hioh tem~::ratures and/or by radio1ysis of
~*r:ter.
Experience 9a*ined from the Tl-'.1-2 accide:nt indicates that ~:e r:-.cy
~ant to require mQre specific design provisions for handling laraer hydro9en releases than currently reauired by the regulations particularly for s~5ller, low pressure contain~ent designs.
This l'SI \\>'ill 'investigate r..::ans to pre-diet the qu.:ntity and release rate of hydroqen follo~ing de-graded core ac~idents and various ~eans to cope
\\:ith laroe releases to the containm::~t SJ:h as inErting of the contain~2nt or controlled burning. The potential effects of proposed hydrogen control r.r:asures on safety including the effects of hJ1droqen burns on safety related equip~ent ~ill also be investigated.
