SESSION #8: REGULATORY IMPROVEMENTS BIOGRAPHIES Brian Gutherman Brian. Gutherman is the president of Gutherman Technical Services. His company provides licensing, engineering, training, and consulting support to the nuclear power industry, primarily in the spent fuel management area.

Mr. Gutherman has worked in the nuclear power industry for his entire 36-year professional career. He has worked in a variety of engineering and management positions for an architect/engineering firm, a nuclear utility, and a spent fuel cask vendor.

Brian has been involved with the NEI dry storage task force since 1998 and has been a consultant to the nuclear power industry in the area of used ISFSI implementation and licensing for the past 14 years.

Jeremy Renshaw Dr. Jeremy Renshaw is the Program Manager for the Used Fuel and High-Level Waste Group at the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI).

He manages R&D efforts focused on all aspects of the back end of the fuel cycle including used fuel, wet and dry storage, transportation, and eventual dispositioning. These activities include aging management of dry cask storage systems, dry cask inspection development, maintaining criticality margins during wet and dry storage, understanding high burnup cladding performance, and activities related to interim and final storage options.

Dr. Renshaw holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering, a Masters in Systems Engineering, and a PhD in Materials Science and Engineering, all from Iowa State University.

Jorge Solís Doctor Jorge Solís is a Senior Thermal Engineer in the Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards of the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission. In his role, he is responsible for performing technical reviews of spent fuel storage and transportation casks and for developing technical review guidance and CFD best practice guidelines.

He has over 15 years of experience performing thermal analysis of spent fuel storage and transportation casks and spent fuel dry storage facilities, and more than 20 years of engineering experience which includes experience in nuclear engineering (nuclear fuel management and thermal hydraulic design, and transient and accident analysis of commercial nuclear power plants) and review of radioactive materials and spent fuel storage and transportation packages. Doctor Solís received his Ph.D. degree in Nuclear Engineering from Penn State University.

Rod McCullum Rod McCullum has been working on regulatory issues at NEI since 1998. He has 30 years of nuclear engineering, licensing, management and regulatory policy experience.

Currently, at NEI, he leads industry efforts to improve used fuel and decommissioning management systems.

He held prior positions in Government (with the Department of Energy) and Industry (at three commercial nuclear power plants). He has a Bachelor of Science degree in Nuclear Engineering (University of Cincinnati, 1985) and a Master of Business Administration degree (Lewis University, 2000).
