Background===
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff is continuing its review of the SHINE Medical Technologies, LLC (SHINE) operating license application, submitted by letter dated July 17, 2019 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML19211C044), as supplemented by letter dated November 14, 2019 (ADAMS Accession No. ML19337A275). This regulatory audit is intended to assist the NRC staff in its review of the instrumentation and control (I&C) systems described in the SHINE final safety analysis report (FSAR), submitted as part of SHINEs operating license application.
Regulatory Bases for the Audit The purpose of this audit is to support the NRC staffs review of the licensees proposed I&C systems described in the Chapter 7, Instrumentation and Control Systems, of the SHINE FSAR in accordance with the applicable regulatory requirements of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations and applicable guidance provided in NUREG-1537, Guidelines for Preparing and Reviewing Applications for the Licensing of Non-Power Reactors, Part 1, Format and Content, and Part 2, Standard Review Plan and Acceptance Criteria, (ADAMS Accession Nos.: ML042430055 and ML042430048, respectively).
Regulatory Scope for the Audit The NRC staff will review the SHINE FSAR, technical specification (TS) requirements, and supporting reference documentation related to the SHINE I&C systems. This audit will provide information necessary to continue the NRC staffs evaluation of the SHINE operating license application. In addition, the regulatory audit may identify additional information that will be required to be docketed to support the basis of the licensing decision and will allow NRC staff to more efficiently gain insights on the operating license application. To support this audit, the NRC staff will visit the SHINE office in Janesville, WI.
Information Needed for the Audit SHINE should be prepared to support the NRC staff by having a copy of SHINEs FSAR and TSs readily available. Additionally, the licensee should be prepared to provide supporting documents and reports, calculations, and computer code verification to support the analysis documented in the FSAR, bases for TSs, or rationale for any required plans and procedures, as necessary.
Audit Team The NRC staff performing this audit will be:
Steven Lynch (Project Manager)
Rossnyev Alvarado (Technical Reviewer)
Norbert Carte (Technical Reviewer)
Dinesh Tanjea (Technical Reviewer)
Audit Team Logistics The onsite audit will initiate on March 16, 2020 and continue through March 19, 2020. As needed additional audit activities may continue, until NRC staff have adequate understanding of issues to be addressed to facilitate the continued review of the operating license application for SHINEs I &C systems under the scope of the audit. Audit activities may be conducted as onsite review meetings and teleconference and video conference supported activities, as appropriate and efficient to the gathering of information by the NRC staff. The audit period may be reduced or extended, dependent on the NRC staff and licensee progress in addressing audit questions. Additional audit activities may be planned in advance, as necessary, to support the understanding of information necessary to facilitate the continued review of the operating license application. It is expected that more interaction will be needed to identify information requests to support operating license application review activities.
Deliverables At the completion of the regulatory audit the NRC staff will prepare a regulatory audit summary, which will be issued within 90 days after the audit. The regulatory audit summary will include the documents reviewed, the audit activities, and any requests for additional information (RAI) that were discussed or that will be issued based on the audit, as applicable.
Audit Questions:
The questions for discussion during the audit are primarily based on the regulatory audit questions provided as an attachment to this letter (ADAMS Accession No. ML20057F952). At the conclusion of the audit, necessary RAI will be drafted to ensure the licensee has a clear understanding of the RAI scope.
