April 19, 2019 MEMORANDUM TO:
Andrea D. Veil, Executive Director Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards FROM:
Robert Taylor, Director /RA Anna Bradford Acting for/
Division of Licensing, Siting, and Environmental Analysis Office of New Reactors
SUBJECT:
NUSCALE POWER, LLC, DESIGN CERTIFICATION APPLICATION - SAFETY EVALUATION WITH OPEN ITEMS FOR CHAPTER 19, PROBABILISTIC RISK ASSESSMENT AND SEVERE ACCIDENT EVALUATION FOR NEW REACTORS On January 6, 20171, NuScale Power, LLC (NuScale) submitted its Standard Plant Design Certification Application to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for review, approval, and granting of standard design certification for the NuScale Standard Plant Design. NuScales letter is available in the Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) under Accession No. ML17013A229.
Based on our review of the application, the NRC staff is providing the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards (ACRS) its Safety Evaluation (SE) with Open Items for Chapter 19, Probabilistic Risk Assessment and Severe Accident Evaluation for New Reactors. The SE is being provided to support a meeting of the subcommittee of the ACRS scheduled for May 14, 2019.
The staff concludes that the SE does not contain any information exempt from public disclosure.
However, the NRC will withhold the SE from public disclosure for ten business days to allow NuScale the opportunity to verify the staffs conclusion that the SE contains no such exempt information. Therefore, the staff requests that the ACRS withhold the SE from public disclosure until the information has been released publicly in the ADAMS.
Docket No.52-048 CONTACT: Rani Franovich, NRO/DLSE 301-415-7334 1 The Design Certification Application was submitted via a transmittal letter dated December 31, 2016.
