SUMMARY
OF MAY 12, 1993, MEETING ON THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE EMERGENCY OPERATING PROCEDURES AND THE LICENSING BASIS Introduction On May 12, 1993, the NRC staff met with Georgia Power Company representatives (GPC or licensee) -in Rockville, Maryland, to discuss the licensee's process for assessing the differences, at Hatch Nuclear Plant, between the emergency operating procedures (E0Ps) and the licensing basis. lists the attendees, and Enclosure 2 contains the meeting agenda.
Discussion The meeting was held at NRC staff request as a followup to a letter from W.
Russell, NRC, to R. Binz IV, Chairman, BWR Owners' Group (BWROG), dated May 12, 1992. After brief introductory remarks by NRC and GPC regarding the objective of the meeting, Mr. O. Vidal, GPC, stated that the licensee had reviewed each event in the transient and accident analyses (i.e., Chapters 14 and 15 of the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR)) and compared it to the appropriate E0P.
For example, the sequence of events listed in the FSAR for the loss of feedwater flow event was compared to the reactor water level control path of Hatch E0Ps. The comparison focused on whether or not the event listed in the FSAR resulted in an E0P entry condition.
If the event resulted in an E0P entry condition, then the licensee investigated the differences between the E0P and the FSAR actions.
For the differences identified, the licensee analyzed them as potential unreviewed safety questions and developed resolutions for all of them, using the guidance generated by the BWROG task force regarding this issue.
The licensee's resolutions were reviewed and independently verified by General Electric.
The licensee reviewed 39 events for Hatch Unit 1 and 42 events for Hatch Unit 2.
Moreover, all other sections of the FSAR were reviewed against the applicable portions of the E0Ps. As a result of this process, ten differences were identified; eight had been resolved and two remai~ open (i.e., ADS inhibit, and the use of nitrogen containment atmosphere dilution for combustible gas control). The viewgraphs used for his presentation are included as Enclosure 3.
Following the licensee's presentation, the NRC staff reviewed the details of I
r the licensee's evaluation process.
