SUMMARY
OF A PUBLIC MEETING TO DISCUSS RECENT LAWRENCE LIVERMORE NATIONAL LABORATORY'S (LLNL) PROBABILISTIC SEISMIC i
HAZARD ESTIMATES FOR THE EASTERN UNITED STATES (EUS)
A public meeting was held on March 9,1993 to discuss revised probabilistic seismic hazard estimates for the nuclear power plant sites in the EUS (east of the Rocky Mountains). A list of attendees is attached as Enclosure 1.
The agenda and handouts are attached as Enclosure 2.
Phyllis Sobel, NRC, opened the meeting by discussing the purpose for the revised calculations.
In the last few years LLNL has improved their approach by applying the methodology at Department of Energy (D0E) sites.
Based on LLNL work done for DOE in the last few years, NRC felt that limited reelici ation of the LLNL experts was needed to refine the estimates of uncert
'v in seismicity parameters and ground motion models.
The prelir results presented at the March 9 meeting are these improved and updatt
.les.
After undergoing NRC review, the new results could be used i
in future actions.
)
m Jean Savy, LLNL, described the revised hazard calculations.
In probabilistic seismic hazard analyses, the experts define maps of source zones and then describe the seismicity of each zone in terms of the rate of earthquakes versus magnitude for each source zone.
In the 1980's the LLNL experts were elicited for a and b values (the intercept on the y-axis and the slope of the rate of earthquakes versus magnitude). Then the experts were elicited for the uncertainties associated with these a and b values.
This procedure led to I
higher uncertainties at the larger magnitudes.

t g-In 1992, seismicity recurrence rates (including uncertainty) were elicited by frequency of occurrence at specific magnitudes. All the seismicity experts were more comfortable with this approach. The result of the elicitation was that the uncertainties associated with the seismicity recurrence curves were reduced at all magnitudes. The 1992 elicitation was limited to the seismicity recurrence rates and upper magnitude values and zonation was not re-elicited.
l For the 1980's LLNL study, each ejround motion expert provided several ground I
motion medels which estimated ground motion as a function of magnitude and i
distance.
In the 1992 elicitation of ground motion experts, emphasis was placed on updated ground motion estimates based on the current state of knowledge and uncertainty estimates. The ground motion experts were asked to provide peak ground acceleration and spectral acceleration estimates for specific magnitudes and distances. Then LLNL aggregated the ground motion inouts into a composito nrnund mntinn mndel.
This composite ground motion model is used in the hazard calculations.
The revised hazard estimates at the EUS plant sites are lower than the 1989 estimates, principally due to the revised recverence curves.
The revised LLNL calculations were still higher than Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) hazard calculations for EUS sites. Additional feedback with the LLNL ground motion experts is planned for this spring and the final estimates will be produced later this spring. At that time the NRC will make the results publicly available.

Analytical methods using weights acceptable No weights "best" Equal weighting is one useful aggregation Should recognize dependencies among experts i

Check input data for S-and G-experts for:
sanity consistency (with empirical data and with physics principles) gross errors in transcription logics reasoning validity of assumptions and supporting data for selected models 2.
Provide the experts with unbiased information to help them formulate or refine their opinion analysis of available data uncertainties estimates graphical displays of available data in a variety of different formats comparisons of experts input to data and/or to other experts opinions L

EUS Update Study 1993 t
Conclusions j
1.
Seismicity models in the EUS 1989 Study were revisited by re-eliciting the S-s expens' opinions.
l Central tendencies were generally preserved Uncertainties in occurrence rates became smaller 2.
Ground motion modeling was updated. Uncertainty modeling will be finalized by June 93.
j Present uncertainty is similar to 1989 study.
4-ne< rence in PSV was larper at hieher cercentiles 85%, and mean.
Central tendency slightly lower for both PGA and PSV.
1 3.
Combined effect of Seismicity and g.m. update i
i Generally mean PGA reduced by factor of 8 to 100 Generally medians PGA only slightly changed (factor 1 to 5) j For PSV the overall tendency was to decrease the Uniform Hazard Spectra with some reduction in overall uncertainty (15-85th percentiles). Large l
1 reduction in means.
