PROJECT: Task A-17 " Systems Interaction in Nuclear Power Plants"
SUBJECT:
SUMMARY
OF MEETING WITH THE ATOMIC INDUSTRIAL FORUM Members of the NRC staff and its contractor, Sandia Laboratories, met with the committee on systems interaction of the Atomics Industrial Forum (AIF) in Bethesda, Maryland on May 25, 1978 to discuss the proposed methodology of accomplishing the task on systems interaction. A list of persons who attended the meeting is enclosed. The items discussed at this meeting are of interest to the members of the NRR Systems Interaction Working Group and to the Engineer-ing Methodology Standards Branch of the Divisi' n of Standards Development.
o Mr. R. C. DeYoung presented a sumary of the current status of our task.
Mr. Jack Hickman presented a sumary of the work to be accomplished by Sandia Laboratories, including a discussion of the initial thoughts on how the work may be accomplished. An outline of the presentation by J. Hickman is shown in Enclosure 2.
Following these presentations, the members of the NRC staff and Sandia Laboratories responded to questions from the members of the AIF committee.
The AIF committee circulated a statement which the comittee had prepared on April 6,1978. This statement regarding systems interaction is also enclosed with this meeting summary as Enclosure 3.
At a previous meeting on March 20, 1978 with the AIF comittee, Mr. DeYoung sugaested that the comittee should actively participate in systems inter-acw1on, and requested the members of the committee to prepare a short descrip-tion of how member organizations believe that systems interactions are accounted for during the design of nuclear power plants. Several members responded to this request. We have currently (as of June 26,1978) received statements from AIF members representing Consumers Power Company, Duke Power Company, CE Power Systems, Babcock and Wilcox, Westinghouse Electric Corporation, and Florida Power & Light Company. These statements are included as Enclosures 4 through 9 to this report.
Following the meeting, K. Canady called us on May 31, 1978 to tell us that
.the comittee reviewed what was discussed and wished to make two points:
(1) The group believes that the task to develop the. systems identification technique and the task to develop interaction importance measures (identi-fied as program tasks 7 and 9 in the presentation by Sandia Laboratories) 1732 322 8001120:59-
i
. June 28, 1978 should be initiated sooner - almost immediately. These are the program tasks that the AIF is most interested in and would like to discuss with us at appropriate times, and i
(2) The group wanted to know if they could contact Sandia directly to discuss the project. Our reply was that contacts should be through the NRR and not directly.
