OUTLINE OF TESTIMONY ,

i Concurrent with the filing of Staff's original testimony on SC 27/ SOC 3, Applicant purported in its testimony to show compliance with Regulatory Guide 1.97, Rev. 2, or tu provide justifications for ap-propriate alternates. Subsequently, the Commission approved Staff's proposal regarding implementation of Emergency Response Capability in-cluding the Regulatory Guide in question. Staff is unable to state at present whether Applicant is in compliance with the Regulatory Guide.

The Staff's review at Shoreham will follow the guidance approved by the Commission. Such review may be after the beginning of plant operation.

However, it is the Staff's position that Shoreham can, in the interim, be operated without undue risk to the health and safety of the public.

NRC STAFF REPLY TESTIMONY OF CHARLES E. ROSSI AND JERRY L. MAUCK ON INSTRUMENTATION FOR POST-ACCIDENT MONITORING 1.Q Please state your names and positions with the NRC.

1.A My name is Jerry L. Mauck. I am employed by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission as a Reactor Engineer in the Instrumentation and Control Systems Branch (ICSB) of the Division of Systems Integration (DSI). A copy of my professional qualifications is attached to the original Staff testimony filed in response to SC Contention 27 and SOC Contention 3.

{

A. My name is Charles E. Rossi, I am employed by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission as a Section Leader in ICSB, DSI. A copy of my professional qualifications is attached.

2.Q Please state the sections of the Shoreham SER and supplements which are relevant to SC 27/ SOC 3.

' 1 2.A Regulatory Gpide 1.97, Rev. 2 is discussed in Section 7.5 of the Shoreham SER dated April, 1981. However, it should be

,noted that some items related to this contention, SC 27/ SOC 3, ,

appear in Chapter ?? of the Shoreham Supplemental SER's due to their inclusion in NUREG-0737.

3.0 Please state the background events which lead to the preparation of this reply testimony.

3.A In May of this year the Staff filed testimony responding to the contentions in question which stated that:

1. Regulatory Guide 1.97, Rev. 2 has not yet been implemented and, accordingly, licensees and applicants have not yet been required to address it.
2. The Shoreham applicant will be expected to comply with the Regulatory Guide or to provide appropriate technical justifications for any citernatives when the Regulatory Guide is implemented.

Concurrent with the filing of the above-referenced Staff testimony, the Applicant also filed testimony in response to the contentions. The Applicant's testimony, among other things, purported to show compliance with the intent of Regulatory Guide 1.97, Rev. 2.

Subsequent to the filing of the above referenced testimonies, the Commission considered the Stafs proposed requirements for emergency response capability (including requirements for post .

~

accident monitoring) contained in SECY-82-111. " Requirements

s for Emergency Response Capability" dated March 11, 1982. The Commission approved SECY-82-111 on July 16, 1982. The Staff

, was informed of the Consnission's decision in a memorandum from ,

, Samuel J. Chilk dated July 20, 1982. Copies of these documents, which are attached, were served on the Board and parties on July 27, 1982.

On July 30, 1982, the Board at Tr. 8551-53, requested the Staff to address several matters set out below.

4.Q Are you prepared to state whether or not the Applicant meets the guidelines set out in Regulatory Guide 1.97, Rev.2?

4.A No. There is not sufficient information available at the present time for the Staff to make a decision on the ultimate acceptability of the Applicant's position with respect to the specific items listed in SC Contention 27 and S0C Contention 3.

. Before a proper review can be made, additional details with l

regard to instrument ranges, locations, pcwer supplies, design criteria, and qualification criteria will be necessary (see page 14 of the enclosure to SECY-82-111). Furthennore, it would be imprudent of the Staff to make piecemeal decisions with respect to Regulatory Guide 1.97, Rev. 2 on one specific plant, which might set a precedent for other plants, without benefit of a careful, orderly review. ,

l i

5.Q Please state.how the Staff plans to review Shoreham for compliance with the Regulatory Guide in question.

5.A ,The Staff plans to perform an audit review of the Shoreham

, plant, to ascertain conformance with R.G. 1.97, Rev. 2, in conjunction with the Staff's review of emergency response capability. This audit review is not a prerequisite for implementation of R.G.1.97, Rev. 2 (see page 14 of the enclosure to SECY 82-111). As noted above, proposed require-ments were sent to the Comission in SECY-82-111 " Requirements for Emergency Response Capability," March 11, 1982. The Comission has approved SECY-82-111 subject to modifications.

The Staff was informed of the Comission's decision by memorandum, S. Chilk to W. Dircks, " Staff Requirements - Affinnation Session

. . , , " July 20, 1982. Enclosure C to the July 20, 1982, memorandum is a " Statement of Policy: Further Comission Guidance on Emergency Response Capability". This statement clearly relates (page 2) the applicability of SECY-82-111 to operating license proceedings including implementation schedules.

The schedule for implenenting basic requirements for Emergency Response Capability is shown on page 1 of the enclosure to SECY-82-111. There it is stated that:

When the basic requirements for emergency response capabilities and facilities are finalized, they should be transmitted to ,

licensees by a generic letter from NRR, ,

promulgated to NRC Staff, and incorporated as .

i l

regulatory requirements (e.g., in the Standard Review Plan or by regulation or Order as appropriate). The letter to licensees should request that licensees submit a proposed schedule for completing actions to comply with the basic ,

requirements. Each licensee's proposed schedules would then be reviewed by the assigned NRC Project Manager, who would discuss the subject with the licensee and mutually agree on schedules and completion dates. The implementation dates would then be formalized into an enforceable document.

Use of existing documentation is addressed on pg. 3 of the enclosure to SECY-82-111:

The NRC Staff recommends that the following NUREG documents are intended to be used as sources of guidance and information, and the Regulatory Guides are to be considered as guidance or as an acceptable approach to meeting formal requirements. The items by virtue of their inclusion in these documents shall not be misconstrued as requirements to be levied on licensees or as inflexible criteria to be used by NRC Staff reviewers.

R.G.1.97 is included in the list of documents. Furthermore, pages 13 and 14 of the enclosure to SECY-82-111 discuss im-plementation of R.G. 1.97. Documentation and NRC Review is addressed on pg.14 where it is stated that:

Deviations from the guidance in Regulatory Guide 1.97 (Rev. 2) should be explicitly shown, and supporting justification or alternatives should be presented.

6.Q Is it possible that the review and implementation of Regulatory Guide 1.97, Rev. 2, may not be completed prior to the licensing of Shoreham?

6.A Yes. As provided for in SECY 82-111, the review is not a

  • prerequisite for Applicant irplementation of Regulatory Guide 1.97, Rev. 2 guidance. Further, the date of final

implementati.on as agreed upon between the Staff and the Applicant will be fonnalized as provided in SECY 82-111.

7.Q On what basis does the Staff propose to proceed with the licensing of Shoreham in the absence of the completion of a review of the Applicant's response to the Regulatory Guide?

7.A It should be understood that the Staff has not completed review of the response to Regulatory Guide 1.97, Rev. 2 for any plant - neither for any licensed plant nor for any plant under licensing review. The Shorehsm plant, as well as other plants for which the licensing review has been completed, was reviewed in accordance with the Standard Review Plan to insure that sufficient indications are available for the operator to cope with Design Basis Events. In addition, the Emergency Procedures for Shoreham at the time of initial plant operation will make use only of the indications available at that time. It should be noted that in addition to indications needed to follow the course of design basis events, Regulatory Guide 1.97, Rev. 2, recommends indications (and ranges) for severe accident scenarios that may go beyond the design basis events.

8.Q Please summarize the Staff's position with regard to the contention in question. ,

8.A Although the Applicant has attempted to show compliance with the intent of Regulatory Guide 1.97, Rev. 2, the Staff is i

i

unable to state whether the Applicant has in fact adequately complied with the Regulatory Guide. It is unlikely that

, compliance can be demonstrated prior to final licensing of ,

, Shoreham. By Commission vote the Staff has been instructed to use SECY-82-111 in implementation of Emergency Response Facilities.

SECY-82-111 implementation includes the recommendations of R.G.

1.97, Rev. 2. The Staff has been instructed to be flexible in the schedule and implementation of the provisions of R.G. 1.97, Rev. 2, under the premise that an orderly, well planned effort will result in greater safety than would a rapid, possibly fragmented attempt to modify existing designs. The Staff's position with respect to the specific items listed in SC 27/ SOC 3 is that the Shoreham plant can be operated without undue risk to the health and safety of the public until a Staff review and l

decision is made with respect to the applicant's overall compliance with Regulatory Guide 1.97, Rev. 2 l

SUMMARY

On December 24, 1980, the Commission published a Statement of Polipy: "Further Commission Guidance to Power

-Reactor- Operating Licenses" (45 FR 85f36)$ modifying an earlier

~ Policy Statement on the same subject (45 FR 41736, June 23, 1980). The Commission's Policy Statement discussed the background of efforts to improve safety requirements in light of experience resulting from the Three Mile Island accident. The Commission in'dicated that operating license applications would be measured by the Commission's regulations, as augmented by the requirements reflected in NUREG-0737, " Clarification of Action Plan Requirements". The Commission.f.urther noted that it will continue to monitor developments with regard to litigation of i

action plan requirements and continue to offer guidance where appropriate.

l Since that time, the NRC staff has developed a number of l

NUREG documents and other guidance docume.nts which provide information and guidance as to methods of implementation and other details concerning certain NUREG-0737 items relating to ,

emergency response capability. The more important elements of these various staff documents have been identified in "NRC Staff Recommendations on the Requirements for Emergency Response 1

.? .- ,

y .

l . .

Capability", which the NRC staff has recommended be adopted by the NRC in order to provide guidance clarifying and amplifying the NUREG-0737 items relating to emergency response capability.

P The Commission has considered the staff

  • . . -- Jo e secommendation and

~ ~

approved the requirements recommended in "NRC Staff Recommenda-

~ tions on the Requirements for Emergency Response Capability" as appropriately clarifying and providing greater detail with

, respect to the TMI ActioTr Plan Requirements contained in NUREG-0737 relating to emergency response capability. The provisions for scheduling set 'forth in these recommended requirements supersede the schedules with respect to related NUREG-0737 items.

Accordingly, the Commission has concluded that these recom-mended requirements s,hould be used by the staff and by adjudica-tory. boards as appropriate clarification %s and interpretations of related NUREG-0737 items and should be accorded the status of ,

approved NUREG-0737 items as set forth in the December 24, 1980 Statement of Policy. Litigation of the recommended requirements l

set forth in NRC. S,taff Recommendations on the Requirements for Emerge $cy Response Capability should be permitted in operating license proceedings under the same c6nditions as those applicable to NUREG-0737 items in accordance with the December 24, 1980 .

, Statement of Policy. In this regard, it should be understood i

that the Commission's December 24, 1980 Statement of Policy is applicable to all operating license applications and that therefore this new guidance 'on emergency response cacability is l cpplicable to all operating license applications.

March 11, 1982 SECY-82-111 w.....,f POLICY ISSUE (Notation Vote)

For: The Commissioners From: William J. Dircks Executive Director for Operations

Subject:

REQUIREMENTS FOR EMERGENCY RESPONSE CAPABILITY

Purpose:

To request Commission approval of a set of basic re-quirements for emergency response capability and approval for the staff to work with licensees to develop plant-specific implementation schedules.

Discussion: One of the first issues reviewed by the Comittee to Review Generic Requirements (CRGR) was the broad area of emergency response facilities and capabilities at nuclear plants. The Committee found that imple-

- mentation schedules were not being coordinated within the NRC. In addition, existing NRC documents published as guidance to licensees were sometimes being used as fim requirements. Discussions with industry representatives and the staff indicated that some licensees had slowed down on work in this area pending NRC clarification of its requirements.

  • Some utilities have virtually stopped work on some of the items, while others have proceeded and, in some cases, completed some of the items. The Committee recommended that steps be taken by the Office Directors involved to clarify the requirements and implementation schedules for the Safety Parameter Display System (SPDS), Control Room Design Review, upgraded Emergency Operating procedures, Regulatory Guide 1.97 Technical Support Center (TSC), Operational

. Support Center (OSC), and Emergency Operations Facility (EOF). In my memo to the Commission dated December 31, 1981, I noted that the DEDROGR staff would work with the program offices to clarify the basic requirements in this area and establish a ,

revised implementation plan. '

. Enclosed are the staff's recommendations for the requirements in the broad area of emergency response facilities and capabilities outlined above. The requirements were developed by the program offices ,

Contact:

V. Stello, Jr., DEDROGR 49-29704

. i j The Comissioners r and are supported by CRGR. The enclasure represents a distillation of fundamental requirements from the -

broad range of guidance documents that NRC has issued (principally NUREG reports and Regulatory Guides). The staff intends that the guidance documents referred to in the enclosure not be used to impose requirements on licensees, but rather that they be used as sources of guidance for NRC reviewers and licensees regarding acceptable means for meeting the fundamental requirements proposed.

In discussions with owners' groups and individual licensees, the staff has learned that the Commission approved schedule of October 1,1982, for implementation of the TSC and EOF probably cannot be met. In recognition of this fact and the difficulty of implementing generic deadlines, the staff is proposing that plant-specific schedules be established which take into account the unique status of each plant.

Each licensee would be requested to submit a proposed schedule for completing the actions to comply with the fundamental requirements. The NRC Project Manager for each plant should be knowledgeable of the overall work effort going on at a plant and, based on guidance received from NRC management, could reach agreement with licensees on schedules which optimize use of. utility and NRC resources. The agreed upon comp.letion dates would be formalized in an order. By this approach, future staff coordination problems regarding implementation schedules will be avoided.

Resource The costs to licensees to implement the requirements Estimates: proposed in the enclosure were included in the estimates set out in NUREG-0660.

Recommendation: That the Commission:

1. Approve the fundamental requirements described in the enclosure.
2. Approve the issuance of the requirements in the '

enclosura by 50.54f letters as a revision to NUREG 0737,

3. Approve the method for establishing plant- i specific implementation schedules described in the enclosure.

. s

. i The Commissioners 4. Approve the implementation of these requirements through plant-specific orders.

5. Note that the staff intends to use the previously issued NUREG reports and Regulatory Guides as guidance documents only. .

Scheduling: Licensees are currently required to establish a TSC and EOF by October 1. Prompt action on this paper is required in order to provide guidance to licensees.

EMERGENCY RESPONSE CAPABILITY

1. INTRODUCTION . ,

> This report was prepared as a result of a review by the Comittee to Review Generic Requirements (CRGR). The recommendations herein have been developed by the program offices and are supported by CRGR. The report represents the staff's attempt to distill the fundamental requirements for nuclear plant Emergency Response Capability from the wide range of guidance documents that NRC has issued. It is not intended that these guidance docuinents (NUREG reports and Regulatory Guides) be ignored; they are still useful sources of guidance for licensees and NRC staff I .

regardint acceptable means for meeting the fundamental requirements

=

containet in this document. -

j These fundamental requirements are further specification of the general guidance specified previously by the Commission in its regulations, It I

orders and policy statements on emergency planning and TMI issues.

is intended that these fundamental requirements would be applicable to l licensees of operating nuclear power plants and holders of construction permits for nuclear power plants. For applicants for a construction permit {CP) or manufacturing license (ML), the requirements described in this document must be supplemented with the specific provisions.in the rule specifying licensing requirements for pending CP and ML applications.

In this regard, it is expected that the staff would review CP and ML -

applications against the guidance in the current Standard Review Plan.

and this mi.ght lead to more detailed requi,rements than prescribed in this document.

Based on discussions with licensees, the staff has learned that many of the Commission approved schedules for emergency response facilities probably will not be met. In recognition of this fact and the difficulty of implementing generic deadlines, the staff proposes that plant-specific schedules be established which take into account the unique status of each plant. The following sequence for developing implementation schedules is proposed.

When the basic requirements for emergency response capabilities and i facilities are finalized, they should be transmitted to licensees by a generic regulatoryletter from NRR,(promulgated to NRC staff, and incorporated as requirements or Order, as appropriate). The letter to ifcensees should request that licensees submit a proposed schedule for completing actions to comply with the basic- requirements. Each licensee's proposed schedules would then be reviewed by the assigned NRC Project Manager, who would discuss the subject with the licensee and mutually agree on schedules and completion dates. The implementation dates would then b'e formalized into an enforceable document..

,. d

. 2 .

The basic requirements in this ' document do not alter previously issued guidance, which remains in effect. This document does attempt to place that guidance in perspective by identifying the elements that the NRC staff believes to be essential to upgraded emergency response capabilities.

The proposal to formalize implementation dates in an enforceable document reflects the level of importance which the NRC staff attributes to these basic requirements. The NRC staff does not recomend that existing guidance be imposed in this manner, but rather that it be used as guidance to be considered in upgrading emergency response capabilities. This indicates the distinction which the staff believes should be made between

- the basic requirements and guidance.

The following sections describe NRC staff recomendations on basic re-quirements, their interrelationships, and NRC actions to improve manage-ment of emergency response regulation. Reference documents are cited with a description of content as it relates to specific initiatives.

2. USE OF EXISTING DOCUMENTATI0N' .

The NRC staff recommends that the following NUREG documents are intended to be .

used as sources of guidance and information, and the Regulatory Guides are to be considered as guidance or as an acceptable approach to meeting formal requirements. The items by ' virtue of their inclusion in these documents shall not be misconstrued as requirements to be levied on licensees or as inflexible criteria to be used by NRC staff reviewers.

3. COORDINATION AND INTEGRATION OF INITIATIVES
1. The design of the Safety Parameter Display S'ystem (SPDS), design of instrument displays based on Regulatory Guide 1.97 guidance, control room design review, development of symptom oriented emergency operating proce-dures, and operating staff training should be integrated with respect to the overall enhancement of operator ability to comprehend plant conditions and cope with emergencies. Assessment of information needs and display formats and locations should be performed by individual licensees. The SPDS could affect other control room improvements that licensees may consider. In some cases, a good SPDS may obviate the need for large-scale control room modifications. However, installation of the SPDS should not be delayed by slower progress on other initiatives. The SPDS should not be contingent on completion of the control room design review. NRC does not plan to impose additional requirements on licensees regarding SPDS.
2. Implementation of part or all of Regulatory Guide 1.97 (Rev. 2) represents a control room improvement. The implementation of control room improve-ments is not contingent on implementing Technical Support' Center (TSC) and Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) requirements.
3. The Technical Support Center (TSC) and Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) are dependent on control room improvements in,tems of communication and instrumentation needs among the TSC, EOF, and control room. TSC and EOF '

facilities are not necessarily dependent on each other. The Operational-Support Center (OSC) is independent of TSC and EOF.

4. The three groups of initiatives--SPDS, control room improvements, and ,

emergency response facilities (TSC, EOF, OSC)--should have the following interrelationships: -

. a. The SPDS is an improvement in the control room ~ because it enhances operator ability to comprehend plant conditions and interact in situations that require human intervention. The SPDS could affect other control room improvements that licensees may consider. In some cases, a good SPDS could obviate the need for extensive modifications to control rooms.

b. New instrumentation that may be added to the control room should be considered a requirement for inclusion in the design of the TSC and

. EOF only to the extent that such instrumentation is essential to the performance of TSC and EOF functions.

c. The SPDS and control room improvements are essential elements in

. operator training programs and the upgraded plant-specific emergency operating r ocedures.

d. Acquisition, processing, and. management of data for SPDS, control-room improvements, and emergency response facilities should be coordinated but need not be centralized. .

2.

The control room instrumentation required (see General Design Criteria 13 and 19 of Appendix A to 10 CFR 50) forms the basic safety components required for safe reactor operation under normal, transient, and accid ,

The SPDS is used in addition to the basic components and

- conditions. Thus, requirements applicable serves to aid and augment these components.

to control room instrumentation are not needed for this augmentation (e.g., GDC 2, 3, 4 in Appendix A; 10 CFR Part 100; single-failure requ L

ments).. The SPDS need not meet requirements of the single-failure The criteria and it need not be qualified to meet Class 1E requirements.

SPDS shall be suitably isolated from electrical or electronic interference The SPDS with equipment and sensors that are in use for safety s indication is not required for the sole purpose of being a backup for SPDS.

After the SPDS has been installed. operating procedures should be available that will allow timely and correct safety status assessment whe the SPDS is not available.

comprehended by SPDS users.

5. Minimum information to be provided shall be sufficient to provide infoma-tion to plant operators about:
a. Reactivity control >
b. Reactor core cooling and heat removal from the primary system '
c. Reactor coolant system integrity
d. Radioactivity control ,
e. Containment conditions The specific parameters to be displayed shall be determined by the licensee. ,
6. The licensee shall prepare a written safety analysis describing the basis

- on which the selected parameters are sufficient to assess the safety status of each identified function for a wide range of events, which include symptoms of severe accidents. Such analysis, along with the specific implementation plan for SPDS shall be reviewed as described below. .

7. The licensee's ' proposed implementation of an SPDS system shall be reviewed I -

in accordance with the licensee's technical specifications to determine .

whether the changes involve an unreviewed safety question or i:hange of .

technical specifications. If they do, they shall be processed in the normal fashion with prior NRC review. If the changes do not involve an .

unreviewed safety question or a change in the technical specifications,

.' the licensee may implement such change's without prior approval by NRC.

However, the licensee's analysis shall be submitted to NRC promptly on completion of review by the licensee's offsite committee. Based on the results of NRC review, the Director of IE or the Director of NRR may request or direct the licensee to cease implementation if a serious safety -

question is posed.by the licensee's proposed system, or if the licensee's analysis is seriously inadequate. . . ..

Integration Prompt implementation of an SPDS is a design goal and of primary importance.

The schedule for implementing SPDS should not be impacted by schedules for the control room design review aind develcpment of symptom-oriented .

emergency operating procedures. For this reason, licensees should develop and propose an integrated schedule for implementation in which If reasonable, the SPDS design is an input to the other initiatives. -

5. DETAILED CONTROL ROOM DESIGN REVIEW Current Regulatory Requireme6ts As specified in Item I.D.1 in NUREG-0737, the ' implementation scheduie is still to be developed.

Functional Statement The objective of the control room design review is to " improve the ability of nuclear power plant control room operators to prevent accidents or cope with i - accidents if they occur by improving the information provided to them" (from NUREG-0660, Item I.D.1). As a complement to improvements of plant operating staff capabilities in response to transients and other abnormal c:nditions that will result from implementation of the SPDS and from upgraded emergency opera-t ting procedures, this design review will identify any modifications of control room configurations that would contribute to a significant reduction of risk l

and enhancement in the safety of operation. Decisions to modify the control room would include consideration of long-term risk reduction a'nd any potential temporary decline in safety after modifications This resulting shouldfrom be the need to carefully relearn ma'intenance and operating procedures.

reviewed by persons competent in human factors engineering and risk analysis.

Recommended Requirements

1. Conduct a control room design review to identify human engineering dis- .

crepancies. The review shall consist of: .

a. The establishment of a qualified multidisciplinary review team and a review program incorporating accepted human engineering principles.

1

b. The use of function and task analysis (that had been used as the basis for developing emergency operating procedure Technical Guide-lines) to identify control room operator tasks and information and c'ontrol requirements during emergency operations. This analysis has multiple purposes and should also serve as the basis for developing training and staffing needs and verifying SPDS parameters. .
c. A comparison of the display and control requirements with a control room inventory to identify missing and surplus (distracting) displays and controls,
d. ' A control room survey to identify deviations from accepted human factors principles. This survey will include, among other things, .

assessment of control room layout, the usefulness of audible and

- visual alarm systems, information recording and recall capability, and control room environment.

~

2. Asses's which human engineering discrepancies are significant and should be corrected. Select design improvements that will correct those discrep-ancies. Improvements that can be accomplished with an enhancement program

'. (paint-tape-label) should be done promptly.

I 11 e .

3. Verify that each selected design improvement will provide .

unacceptable human engineering discrepancies Improvements that because in which a temporary reduction in safety could occur.

are introduced should be coordinated with changes resulting from other improvement programs such as SPDS, operator training, new instrumentation (Reg. Guide 1.97, Rev. 2), and upgraded emergency operating procedures.

I Documentation and NRC Review 1.

All licensees shall submit a p'rogram plan within two months of the start of the control room review that describes how items 1, 2 and 3 above will l be accomplished. NRC approval is not required before licensees conduct l~ their reviews.

1 l .

2.

Selected licensees will underge an in progress audit by the NRR human -

' factors staff b~ased on the program plans and advice from, resident inspectors.

3. All licensees shall submit a summary report outlining proposed control room changes. The report will also provide a summary justification for human engineering discrepancies with safety significance to be left uncorrected or partially corrected.
4. . Within two weeks after receipt of the licensee's summary report, the NRC will inform the licensee whether it will conduct a pre-implementation onsite audit. The decision will be based on the content of the program The plan, summary report, and results of NRR in progress licensees selected for in progress audits under paragraph 2.

5.

For control rooms selected for pre-implementation onsite audit, within one month after receipt of the summary report, the NRC will conduct:

a. A pre-implementation audit of proposed modifications (e.g., equipmen additions, deletions and relocations, and proposed modifications).
b. An audit of the justification for those human engineering discrep-l ancies of safety significance to be left uncorrected or only partially corrected.

The audit will consist of a review of licensee's record of the room reviews, discussions with the licensee review team, and usually a '

Within a month after this onsite audit, NRC will cont'rol room visit.

  • issue its safety evaluation report (SER).

6.

For control rooms for which NRC does not perform a pre-implementation onsite audit, NRC will conduct a review and issue its SER within two

~

. 2 ,

months after receipt of the licensee's summary report. The review shall be similar to that conducted for pre-implementation plants under para-graph 5 above, except that it may or may not include a specific audit. -

The SER shall indicate whether, based on the review carried out, changes in the licensee's modification plan are needed to assure operational safety. Flexibility is considered in the control room review, because certain control board discrepancies can be overcome by techniques not involving control board changes. These techniques could include improved procedures, improved training, or the SPDS. .

7. The following approach will be used fo'r OL review. For OL applications with SSER dates prior to June 1983, licensing may be based on either a Preliminary Design Assessment or a Control Room Design Review (CRDR) at the applicant's option. However, applicants who choose the Preliminary Design Assessment option are required to perform a CRDR after licensing.

For applications with SSER dates after June 1983, Control Room Design Review will be required prior to licensing. -

Integration Prompt im'lementation p of an SPDS is a design goal and of primary importance.

The schedule for. implementing SPDS should not be impacted by schedules

Documentation and NRC Review The conceptual design for emergency response facilities (TSC, OSC, and EOF) have been submitted to NRC for review. In many cases, the lack of detail in Some designs these submittals has precluded an NRC decision of acceptability.

have been disapproved because they clearly did not meet the intent of the applicable regulations. NRC does not intend to approve each design prior to implementation, but rather has provided in this document those " recommended requirements" which should be satisfied. These recommended requirements provided a degree of flexibility within which licensees can exercise management

-prerogatives in designing and building emergency response facilities (ERF)'that satisfy specific needs of each licensee. The foremost consideration regarding ERFs is that they provide adequate capabilities of licensees to respond to emergencies. NUREG guidance on ERFs has been intended to address specific issues which the Commission believes should be considered in achieving improved capabilities.

Licensees should assure that the design of ERFs satisfies these basic, requirements. Exemptions from or alternative methods of implementing these requirements should be discussed with NRC staff and in some cases could require Commission approval. Licensees should continue work on ERFs to complete them acccrding to schedules that will be negotiated on a plant-specific basis. NRC will conduct appraisals of completed facilities to verify that these requirements have been satisfied and that ERFs are capable of performing their intended functions. Licensees need not document their actions on each specific .

STATEMENT OF. PRDFESS10t4AL QUAL'!JICAT10ftS

. CHARLES E. ROSSI I have been with the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Comission (NRC) since -

October 1980. Since Augu'st 1981 I have been a Section Leader in .the .

Instrumentation and Control Systems Branch, Division of Systems Integration.

Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation. I am responsible for supervising the I

review of nuclear power plant instrumentation and control system designs for compliance with regulatory criteria. From October 1980 to August 1981 I was a Principal Reactor Engineer in the Instrumentation and Control Systems Branch.

I performed the operating license review of the Callaway and Wolf Creek '

instrumentation and control system designs, the review of construction permit applicant responses to Three Mile Island Lessons Learned Items related to instrumentation and control systems, and the review of licensee responses to recommendations made by Babcock and Wilcox resulting from failure modes and effects analyses of the Integrated Control System.

I have a Ph.D degree (1969) and M.E degree (1967) in Applied Physics from Harvard University, a M.S degree (1962) in Physics from George Washington University and a B. A degree Magna cum Laude Highest Honors (1958) in Engineering and Applied Physics from Harvard University. I have a certificate from a six month reactor engineering course given by the Bettis Atomic Power Laboratory (1960). I was elected to Phi Beta Kappa in 1958 and Sigma Xi in 1962.

From June 1958 to July 1962 I served as a comissioned officer in the United States Navy. I was assigned to Naval Reac, tors, U. S. Atomic Energy 1

Commission, where I reviewed and approved test and operating procedures for ,

submarine nuclear power plant fluid systems and reactor instrumentation and control systems designs for the pressurized water reactor at Shippingport, PA.

/

Professional Qualifications Charles E. Rossi From September 1966 to November 1977 I held professional and management positions in.the Nuclear Energy Systems division of the Westinghouse _

ElectricCorgration. As a manager I supervised the preparation of system .

functional design requirements for nuclear reactor plant systems which affect plant control, protection, and transient performance. In addition to reactor control and protection systems, these systems included emergency fee &ater systems, emergency boration systems, and steam dump systems. For four years I was the lead engineer responsible for establishing functional requirements for reactor control and protection systems used in the Westinghouse 3 loop nuclear reactor plants and for perfortning transient and accident analyses of these plants for safety analysis reports submitted to the Atomic Energy Comission.

From November 1977 to October 1980 I was Systems and Civilian Applications Program Manager in the Office of Inertial Fusion at the U. S. Department of Energy. In this position, I provided technical and administrativ.e direction for studies of the comercial applications of inertial confinement fusion.

I am a member of the American Nuclear Society and past member of the IEEE Nuclear Power Engineering Comittee Standards Subcommittee (SC-6) on Safety Related Systems. I have authored or co-authored over ten technical articles for presentation at conferences or publication in journals.
