- PRS = Public Radiation Safety Cornerstone; ORS = Occupational Radiation Safety Cornerstone
- Staff has proposed retiring this procedure (with transfer of some of its contents) as part of the ROP Enhancement effort
6 Inspection Procedure (IP) Revision Process
- Identify which IPs need to be revised based on:
- Inspection experience
- Stakeholder feedback
- Programmatic reviews
- Develop revised procedures through internal collaboration
- Provide external stakeholders an opportunity to preview significant changes (July 23, 2019 public meeting)
- Finalize IPs
- Train staff, as necessary
- Issue final IP
7 Items Under Consideration
- ALARA Inspections
- Changes are pending Commission decision
- Effluent and Instrumentation Inspection
- Consider industry feedback from ROP Enhancement effort
- Inspection Planning
- Explore approaches to lessen unnecessary burden on licensees while maintaining inspection scope
- Grouping of inspection requirements
- Developing Outage Procedure
- Oversight of Part 37
8 Oversight of Part 37 Part 37 is applicable to power reactors
- Clarifications in RIS 2015-15 Oversight Experience
- Temporary Instruction (TI) 2800/041, Rev 1 was completed in Jan 2018
- RIS 2018-01 provides a listing of common violations cited during the first two years of Part 37 inspections Staff is working to develop a risk-informed, performance-based framework for oversight of Part 37 requirements at power reactors Considerations:
- Inspections and mechanisms for dispositioning performance deficiencies under the ROP
- Observations from TI 2800/041, Rev 1
- Insights from other Part 37 inspection activities
- Insights from dispositioning Part 37 issues
- Rulemaking effort
9 New Baseline Inspection Procedure Format Current IP 71124 Format:
- Section 01 Inspection Objectives
- Section 02 Inspection Requirements
- Section 03 Inspection Guidance New IP 71124 Format:
- Section 01 Inspection Objectives
- Section 02 General Guidance
- Section 03 Inspection Samples Excerpt from IP 71111.08 - Inservice Inspection Activities
10 Looking Forward
- IP 71124 Procedure Revision
- Draft revisions (Spring/Summer 2019)
- Feedback Public Meeting (July 2019)
- Final Procedures Published (December 2019)
