MEMORANDUM FOR:
William T. Russell, Associate Director for Inspection and Technical Assessment FROM:
Ashok C. Thadani, Director Division of Systems Safety and Analysis
SUBJECT:
WAIVER OF CRGR REVIEW FOR TOPICAL REPORT BAW-10184P (TAC NO. M83405)
REFERENCE:
Memorandum from E. L. Jordan to T. E. Murley, "CRGR Consideration of Topical Reports," September 29, 1989.
Enclosed is the safety evaluation report (SER) prepared by the Division of Systems Safety and Analysis in which the staff accepts Topical Report BAW-10184P for referencing in licensing applications.
The staff proposes that the Committee to Review Generic Requirements (CRGR) review be waiired in accordance with the suggested revised procedures in the above referenced memorandum.
BAW-10184P describes modifications to the approved B&W Fuel Company TAC 03 code, incorporating the material properties of gadolinium oxide.
Extension of the model will enable the licensee or applic<.nt to cal ulate the thermal-mechanical fuel performance for individual urania-gadolinia fuel pins.
The CRGR charter states that the CRGR shou?d review each of the staff's approvals of topical reports.
However, since this SER does not represent a new staff position, the staff believes that CRGR review is not necessary because the methodology is identical to the existing approved code and the included gadolinium properties are to be applied only to the range of fuel designs and operating states that were evaluated in the report.
If you agree that a CRGR review is not necessary, please indicate by signing on the line below. Otherwise, the staff will prepare an appropriate CRGR package.
