MAPPING DISCUSSION:

David Ramendick ILLUSTRATING HOW NEI 96-07 Appendix D Team Nuclear Energy Institute DRAFT NEI 96-07 APP D CAN UTILIZE INFO August 1, 2017 FROM DRAFT NEI 16-16

PURPOSE

  • Identify the Appendix D terminology that can be mapped to NEI 16-16.

  • Discuss Beyond Design Basis Terminology

NOTES

  • NEI 16-16 Guidance and definitions are extracted from Draft 2, dated May 2017, and NRC comments on NEI 16-16 will not be addressed during this presentation.
  • Appendix D Based on NRC Staff feedback and draft comments, some terminology used in this presentation is NOT the same as that contained in the May 16, 2017 version of Appendix D.

o CCF Credible/Not Credible will no longer be used.

o Assessment of Evaluation questions 1, 2, 5 and 6 will be based on CCF Likelihood Sufficiently Low or CCF Likelihood Not Sufficiently Low.

[See next slide]

NOTES (CONTINUED)

Discussion of Sufficiently Low Sufficiently low means much lower than the likelihood of failures that are considered in the UFSAR (e.g., single failures) and comparable to other common cause failures that are not considered in the UFSAR (e.g., design flaws, maintenance errors, calibration errors).

o Used as part of the qualitative assessment to determine if an impact on the accident frequency/malfunction likelihood is due to the activity itself and not something else

EVALUATION QUESTIONS 1 & 2

  • 50.59 Term: Negligible/Discernable o Licensing terminology [

Reference:

NEI 96-07, Rev. 1, Sections 4.3.1 and 4.3.2], with associated technical terminology in NEI 16-16 o Used as part of the qualitative assessment to assess the magnitude of an impact on the accident frequency/malfunction likelihood due to the activity

  • Mapping to NEI 16-16 o CCF Not Credible (Definition 2.5) o CCF Susceptibility Analysis (Section 4.2.2.2)

EVALUATION QUESTIONS 1 & 2 ASSESSMENT OF NEGLIGIBLE/DISCERNABLE

  • Assess the impact of the likelihood of a CCF on the accident frequency/malfunction likelihood.

EVALUATION QUESTIONS 1 & 2

  • From the CCF Susceptibility Analysis, identify the likelihood of a CCF outcome (NEI 16-16, Section 4.2.2.2) o NOT CREDIBLE (Definition 2.5) A CCF can be considered not credible only if the likelihood of a CCF caused by an I&C failure source is no greater than the likelihood of a CCF caused by other failure sources that are not considered in a deterministic safety analysis described in the [U]FSAR.

EVALUATION QUESTIONS 1 & 2

  • If the NEI 16-16, Section 4.2.2.2 outcome is NOT CREDIBLE, then for Appendix D, the magnitude of an impact on the accident frequency/

malfunction likelihood due to the Creation of a SCCF factor is sufficiently low.

  • With an Appendix D assessment of sufficiently low, the conclusion regarding the increase in magnitude due to the Creation of a SCCF factor is negligible.

[NOTE: Assessment of the other four factors still needs to be performed to determine of overall qualitative impact on accident frequency/malfunction likelihood.]

EVALUATION QUESTIONS 1 & 2

  • If the NEI 16-16, Section 4.2.2.2 outcome is CREDIBLE, then for Appendix D, the magnitude of an impact on the accident frequency/

malfunction likelihood due to the Creation of a SCCF factor is NOT sufficiently low.

  • With an Appendix D assessment of NOT sufficiently low, the conclusion regarding the increase in magnitude due to the Creation of a SCCF factor needs to be assessed using the discernable criterion.

[NOTE: Assessment of the other four factors still needs to be performed to determine of overall qualitative impact on accident frequency/malfunction likelihood.]

DESIGN BASIS

  • NEI 96-07, Rev. 1, Section 4.3.8 The UFSAR contains design and licensing basis information for a nuclear power facility, including description on how regulatory requirements for design are met and how the facility responds to various design basis accidents and events.
  • Unless required by Regulation (e.g., SBO per 50.63), beyond design basis conditions are not considered in a licensees UFSAR.

BEYOND DESIGN BASIS

  • NEI 16-16, Definition 2.4, CCF BEYOND DESIGN BASIS For this guideline, a CCF beyond the design basis conclusion is used only to determine the method and acceptance criteria for the analysis of a CCF malfunction result, not to preclude the need for that analysis.
  • NEI 16-16, Definition 2.1, BEST ESTIMATE METHOD A method of analysis that can employ realistic/nominal initial plant conditions and equipment performance, relaxed acceptance criteria, no other assumed equipment failures, credit for beneficial control system action as well as credit for operator actions not described in the [U]FSAR, and allows conclusions based on qualitative expert judgment or quantitative analysis. Best estimate methods can be applied when a CCF is concluded to be beyond design basis.

(BEYOND) DESIGN BASIS

SUMMARY

& CONCLUSION

  • NEI 16-16 terminology refers to the selection of numerical analyses and the assumptions, inputs and acceptance criteria applied to the computational results.
