OF A CATEGORY 3 PUBLIC MEETING HELD WITH EXTERNAL STAKEHOLDERS TO PROVIDE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR DISCUSSION ON DRAFT REGULATORY ISSUE

SUMMARY

2002-22, SUPPLEMENT 1, CLARIFICATION ON ENDORSEMENT OF NUCLEAR ENERGY INSTITUTE GUIDANCE IN DESIGNING DIGITAL UPGRADES INSTRUMENTATION AND CONTROL SYSTEMS On March 6, 2018, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff held a Category 3 public meeting with external stakeholders in Rockville, Maryland. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss draft Regulatory Issue Summary (RIS) 2002-22, Supplement 1, Clarification on Endorsement of Nuclear Energy Institute Guidance in Designing Digital Upgrades in Instrumentation and Control Systems, (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML18051A084).

Background

• Section 2.2 regarding 10 CFR 50.59(c)(2)(vi) o Expanded process discussion o Analysis/reanalysis of results in accordance with existing design and licensing basis methods

• Engineering design process discussion consolidated into Section 5

• Section 6 limited to discussion of 10 CFR 50.59 documentation

• Removed discussion of process for determining safety significance

• Added engineering process discussions that in some cases introduce approaches not described in NEI 01-01

• Removed RIS Decision Tree Flowchart After the presentation, external stakeholders were afforded the opportunity to provide comments on the draft RIS 2002-22, Supplement 1. The slide presentation for this meeting can be found in ADAMS at Accession No. ML18149A095. The meeting agenda (Enclosure 1) and list of attendees (Enclosure 2) are enclosed.
