Brief description of work:

The contractor shall provide technical expertise to assist NRC in accomplishing its licensing and inspection mission, programs and activities on a task-ordering basis in the areas pertaining to standardized and advanced reactor design applications and concepts, other-than power reactors and the license renewal program.

Specifically, the Division of Advanced Reactors and Special Projects will seek technical assistance in evaluating designs, which include General Electric's SBWR, Westinghouse's AP600, AECL's CANDU 3, and ABB's PIUS.

Each of.these reactors relies on unique design and operating features to satisfy NRC safety requirements.

In addition, the reactor designs which are presently in various conceptual stages may rely on new technology and existing technology applied in ways that differ from current plant designs; therefore, necessitating further review and evaluation.

Technical assistance is also required in the review and evaluation of the implementation of NRC programs pertaining to other-than power reactor applications.

Finally, as reactor renewal applications are received, NRC staff will require assistance in the technical review of these applications.

Page 8 NRC-03-93-032 Section C SECTION C - DESCRIPTION / SPECIFICATIONS / WORK STATEMENT C.1 STATEMENT OF WORK C.

1.1 BACKGROUND

The nuclear power industry is currently developing new nuclear power reactor designs of an evolutionary / revolutionary nature and, specifically, several nuclear reactor vendors are currently developing new nuclear power reactor designs that they intend to pursue during the 1990s and into the next century.

For example, passive light water reactor designs (PLWRs), which are now in the conceptual stages, may use technology different from current plant designs.

PLWR vendors (WHC and GE) indicate that the ability of their designs to achieve safety functions will be substantiated with rationale that utilizes tools to support their claims, such as prototypes, models, codes, and experiments / tests.

New designs include General Electric's SBWR, Westinghouse's AP600, AECL's CANDU 3, and ABB's PIUS.

Each of these new reactor designs relies on unique design and operating features.

In addition, the reactor designs, which are currently in various stages of conceptual design, may rely on new technology and existing technology applied in ways different from current plant designs.

Therefore, the technical review for design certification of each of these new reactor designs is expected to present unique technical and regulatory challenges to the NRC.

j l

As these standard PLWR designs and others are submitted to the NRC for licensing, NRR will require technical expertise' to assist in the review and evaluation of these concepts.

In addition, contractor support is required to assist in the implementation of NRC programs pertaining to Other-than-Power Reactors and License Renewal.

C.I.2 OBJECTIVE The objective of this contract is to obtain technical expertise to assist NRR's Division of Advanced Reactors and Special Projects in accomplishing its licensing and inspection mission, programs and activities on a task-ordering basis in the areas pertaining to standardized and advanced reactor design applications and concepts, other-than power reactors and the license renewal program.

l F.2.6 TECHNICAL REPORTING REQUIREMENTS Technical reporting requirements will be specified in each task order.

Some reports may be submitted in the form of computer files or on computer diskettes.

Technical reporting requirements and other deliverables will a.

consist of:

f 1.

Identifying to whom the report is addressed, who should be on l

distribution, and how many copies each addressee should receive.

2.

The type of report that is to be prepared, i.e.:

- Technical Evaluation Report (TER):

Requests for this type of report are made when a formal report is required but the i

distribution is limited.

In NRR, a TER is usually associated with " Licensing Actions" where a staff safety evaluation report (SER) will incorporate the TER by reference.

NUREG/CR Report:

This is the most formal contractor report and is requested when there is significant and important compilation of information and wide distribution of the report as a stand-alone document is required, and when the staff believes the document will be referenced frequently. NUREG/CR reports require the completion / execution of an NRC Form 426A, to be completed by the contractor and sent to the Project Manager for processing.

For further information, refer to Management Directive 3.8 (formerly NRC Manual Chapter 3202).

Trip Report:

In general, every trip for which results are not directly incorporated into either of the above two types of reports, except for inspections (see paragraph below),

should be documented in a short, concise trip report.

- Technical Letter Report: All other reports and documents and other information (e.g., requests for additional information (RAIs), computer software, inspection report inputs) due to be delivered by the contractor under the contract that do not fall under the other types of reports i

listed above are transmitted as or under the cover of a

" Technical Letter Report."

3.

The format and content of each report will be specified. The report should reference the contract number, the Financial Identification Number (FIN), the task order assignment number, and the Technical Assignment Control (TAC) or inspection report number, as applicable. Other sections such as

" Abstract," " Executive Summary," " References," and any appendices will be specified.

4.

If draft reports are required, the number of drafts expected will be stated.

NRC-03-93-032 Section F 1

I 5.

If proprietary or other sensitive information will be included in the report, the means of handling this information will be specified.

Presentations or publication in the open literature of papers or i

i data based on reports already approved for publication by NRC as I

final reports do not require NRC approval.

Conversely, any document containing predecisional or draft material must be approved by NRC prior to release.

Management Directive 3.8 (formerly NRC Manual Chapter 3202) provides further information.

Requests for NRC approval for other than approved reports are to be forwarded to the Project Officer for coordination and NRC approval.
