SUPPORTING STATEMENT FOR 10 CFR 100, APPENDIX A SEISMIC AND GEOLOGIC SITING CRITERIA FOR NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS DESCRIPTION OF THE INFORMATION COLLECTION The Commission's regulations, 10 CFR Part 100, " Reactor Site Criteria " Appendix A " Seismic and Geologic Siting Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants" [ Criterion II, Paragraph 3; Criterion IV; and Criterion VI (B) (1)) require applicants to pro-vide the types of information which show evidence or indications as to the size and frequency of occurrence of prehistoric earthquakes, and evidence of the last time there was movement along faults at the site or in the site region to deter-mine whether or not there is a potential for fault offset during the life of a nuclear power plant.
The information required by 10 CFR Part 100, Appendix A, must be submitted with the application for a construction permit (CP) or operating license (0L).
Although no new applications are anticipated for the next three years this clearance is necessary in the event the NRC has a need to reassess some pre-vious seismic positions.
The NRC review process for a construction permit or an operating license application ranges from one to several years.
The NRC staff reviews the Safety Analysis Report for one to two months and, if neces-sary, generates a request for additional information.
The applicant usually responds within 1 to 6 months, depending on the complexity of the issues.
The average time is usually about 3 months. The responses are reviewed and a draft Safety Evaluation Report is written by the NRC staff.
This docu-ment summarizes conclusions and highlights any outstanding issues.
The staff arranges for a meeting and site visit to resolve any open issues.
When the 1
open issues have been resolved, the staff writes the final Safety Evaluation Report which is published and used as a basis for the remainder of the NRC licensing process, i.e., the meeting with the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards (ACRS) and hearing before the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board, which usually takes about 1 years.
3 During the next 3 years, Appendix A will be used as an aid for evaluating significant new geologic and seismic data as to whether or not it will have an effect on the earthquake design bases for several operating nuclear power plants.
Appendix A will continue to serve as a basis for NRC-sponsored research.
A.
JUSTIFICATION 1.
Need for the Collection of Information The information required by these criteria may be needed by the NRC to assess the adequacy of proposed seismic design bases and the design bases for other geological hazards for nuclear power plants.
It is submitted to the NRC as part of the application and supporting documentation for a construction permit and operating license for a nuclear power plant.
1
t e
i Moreover, Appendix A, supplemented by the Standard Format and the Standard Review Plan, is used by applicants as general guidance in planning investigations of nuclear power plant sites.
2.
Agency Use of Information The NRC reviews the geological and seismological information to determine the suitability of the proposed site for a nuclear power plant and the suitability of the plant design bases established in consideration of the seismic and geologic characteristics of the proposed site.
A construction permit or operating license cannot be issued until this data has been reviewed and approved by the NRC.
New geological and seismological information that becomes known during the operating life of the plant is also evaluated on the basis of these cri-teria.
These criteria also serve as the basis for ongoing NRC research in the earth sciences.
3.
Reduction of Burden Through Information Technology There are no legal obstacles to reducing the burden associated with this collection through information technology.
Moreover, NRC encourages the use of such technology.
4.
Effort to Identify Duplication This information does not duplicate othat information being provided to NRC.
5.
Effort to Use Similar Information t
l L
All pertinent geological and seismological information concerning the I
nuclear site and region around the site are utilized in the analysis of L
that site whether it is a product of the criteria requirements or not.
l 6.
Effort to Reduce Small Business Burden This information collection does not affect small businesses.
I 7.
Consequences of Less Frequent Collection l
l.
Less frequent collection of information will result in serious delays in the licensing processes of nuclear power plants.
I 8.
Circumstances Which Justify Variation From OMB Guidelines There is no variation from the guidelines.
9.
Consultations Outside the NRC l
i None since the last OMB review.
l 2
1 1
I 10.
Confidentiality of Information Proprietary information is protected in accordance with the provisions specified in 10 CFR 2 of the NRC's regulations.
11.
Justification for Sensitive Questionj l
This regulation does not require sensitive information.
12.
Estimated Annual Cost to the Federal Government Over the next three years there will not be any burden to the staff regarding CP Applications.
Seismic issues are presently under review for Comanche Peak Steam Electric Station.
Estimated average annual effort for this OL review is approximately 400. hours or $24,000 per year (560 x 400 brs = $24,000).
NRC staff anticipates the need to collect information for effort with respecttoconfirmingtheadequacyofseismicdesignbasesfortwooperating The NRC staff s reevaluation of earth-reactors, Diablo Canyon and Vogtle.
quake design bases for Diablo Canyon is estimated to require an average of 1800 hours0.0208 days <br />0.5 hours <br />0.00298 weeks <br />6.849e-4 months <br /> / year at an estimated cost of $108,000 per year ($60 x 1800 hrs =
$108,000). The Vogtle fault assessment will require an estimated 400 hours0.00463 days <br />0.111 hours <br />6.613757e-4 weeks <br />1.522e-4 months <br /> per year at a cost'of $24,000 per year ($60 x 400 hrs = 24,000).
Consultants employed by the NRC to provide advice in these activities as related to staff reviews completed under the requirements of Appendix A, Part 100, include the U.S. Geological Survey and the University of Nevada-Reno, Brookhaven National Laboratory and the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.
The estimated annual average effort for these consultants is approximately 5,000 hours0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br /> or $300,000 ($60 x 5,000 hrs = $300,000).
Total annual cost to the Federal Government for Appendix A related activities is estimated to be $456,000 ($60 x 7,600 hrs).
Note that these hours are based on that which is projected for two operating reactors, one OL review and associated consultant expenses.
13.
Estimate of Industry Burden a.
The estimated annual burden for one (1) applicant and two (2) licensees (Comanche Peak, Diablo Canyon, and Vogtle) is based on the involvement of from 2 to 3 of the licensees' technical staff members for the moni-toring of post-operating licenses seismic activities for Vogtle; up to as many as 15 to 20 persons for the Comanche Peak OL review and the monitoring of post-operating license seismic activities for Diablo Canyon.
Inus, the estimated annual burden for industry is 50,000 hours0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br />.
b.
The biggest portion of this estimate is based on the requirement for gathering, analyzing, and synthesizing data.
In order for applicants /
licensees to provide the types of information which show evidence or clues as to the size and frequency of occurrence of earthquakes, and evidence of the last time there was displacement along faults at the site or in the region, to determine whether or not there is a potential 3
for fault offset during the life of a nuclear power plant, extensive research and analysis must be conducted.
This effort involves the analysis of voluminous amounts of drawings, logs, maps, seismic and other geophysical records, and reports.
i 14.
Reasons for Change in Burden The estimated burden on industry remains the same.
However, note that in 1986 the burden decreased from 67K to 50K.
The reason for that decrease remains applicable for this update because NRC's efforts continue to focus on reevaluating the seismic design bases for operating plants,.particularly Diablo Canyon, because of the presentation of new data and hypothesis.
15.
Publication for Statistical Use This information is not collected for statistical purposes.
B.
COLLECTION OF INFORMATION EMPLOYING STATISTICAL METHODS Appendix A of 10 CFR Part 100 allows for the acquisition of statistical data and the use of statistical methods, but does not require them.
