4 INTERROGATORIES Interrogatory 1(a)-1 List the relevant specific CER secticns ad sWeoctions '

which NRDC cczitands iWately discuss the Staff's conclusion that the probability of ATN3 or other CIA initiator occurrerne is aufficiently low that CIAs may be excluded frm the IRA envelope.

Response i 1(a)-3 Inte rvenors have not completed our review of the SER and theref ore cannot anowr this question at this time. The Staf f saf ety analysis as documented in the SEE is not based on quantitative probability, analyses and therefore it is safe to say that the SER as a whole is inadegaate in this regard .

Interrogatory 1(a)-2 For each SER section ad s@secticr1 listed by NRDC in -

its answer to Interrogatzy 1(a)-1, set forth with specificity why NRDC ccmteMs that these sections ad s&secticns are imdecpate.

1(a)-2 See Answer 1(a) above and Intervenors' testimony at the LWA-1 hearing regarding contentions 1-3.

l Interrogatory 1(a)-3 At diat probability of occurrence does NRDC conted that CIA initiatcrs are of sufficiently low likelihood that they can be erluded from the plant desicyl basis envelope? Set forth the bases for NRDC's answer.

Response

( Inte rvenors addressed this in our Response to Inte rrogatory l

l-la of Staf f's First Round of Discovery to NRDC (May 6, 1982)

and in our LWA-1 Testimony. Inte rvenor s' position in this regard has not changed.

Responso r

Intervenors have not completed our review of the SER ur.1 therefore cannot answer this question. Intervenors' general concerns have been set forth in our LWA-1 testimony.

Interrogatory l 1(b)-3 List all methodologies whid1 NtDC contends are i, acceptable for predicting the probability of CIRs. Set farth the bases fcr MtDC's'anneer.

The definition of these words can be found in Webster's Collegiate Dictionary. Intervenors mean input data of such quality that' one can demonstrate by propagation of uncertainties that the result meets the applicable criterion taking into l

account all urcertainties.

Interroga_ tog 1(b)-5 What failure made da a dms 1EDC concider nrcasary to ,

validly employ f ault tree and ovmt tree analyses in assessing CIER reliability? Set fath the bases fx IEDC's ar.wr.

Response

~4hatever it takes to demonstrate the probability of a CEA is 4

suf ficiently low to justify exclusion of the CDA f ron the ,

containment design basia . Intervenors do not claim this can be done for CRBR given the design ard timing constraints.

Interrogatory 1(b)-6 Define, " Applicants' trojected data base", as that phrase is uset in Contenticn 1(b). Set forth the bases fx NRDC's definition.

Response

The -input data used in Applicants' reliability analyses.

Interrogatory -

1(b)-7 List an1 descibe with partiof.arity where ani why the ,

Applicants' an4/or Staff's &ta base is indequate.

Response

Inte rvenor s' criticisms of Staf f reliability analysis and the reasons why we believe it supports incorporating the CDA

o within the containment design basis envelope were presented in our testimony on Appendix J at the LNA-1 hearings. Interv enor s also believe that Applicants' comprehensive PRA analysis 'should have been completed prior to the CP, rather than the OL.

i i Interrogatory

. 1(b)-s . IJst the c,. edible failure sodes or human elemasts that i 1300 centmis are rot, but should be inclxlet in the reliability prograu.

Response

The burden of proof is riot on Intervenors. The point is

,- that PRA is a .usef ul technique f or identif ying such f ailure modes

. and 'a comprahensive PRA should have been performed prior to the CP.

Interrogatory 1(b)-9 Specify each aspect of the Applicant's "reliebility program" that N3DC conterds is iWute, or whidi contributes .to the imbility of the " reliability grogram," even if implenented, to elimiste CIRs as IBAs.

l Response The primary problems with Applicants' reliability program that we have identi fied to date are (1) the criteria have been wa te red down; (2) the timing of the program is such that a comprehensive PRA will not be available in time f or the CP decision. Inte rvenors have not seen the bulk of the quantitative ,

reliability data gene ra ted by Applicants and consequently cannot provide a more complete answer.

o

' Interrogatory 1(b)-10 What level of experience, within the meaning of NRIC's response runber 2(a) under Contention 2(b) of its Jaruary 13, 1977 "Adnissions by Natural Resources Defense Council to Applicants' Request (First Set)" does NIqDC contard is auf ficiently extensive, with respect to the developent of reliability &ta for instrtanestation and electronic equipnent similar.to that usal in the CIqBR shatdom ard sMtdom heat removal systems, to permit that

&ta to be a useful predictcr of the reliability of the similar CIqBR eqaignent.

Response

-The experience would have to be (a) relevant to CRBR, (b) ,

suf ficiently extensive sudt that when the confidence limits (due i l' to statisticM and other uncertainties) are propagated through ,

the appropr?ats model the results allow one to confidently predict that the appropriate criteria are met.

t Jntereogaterv 1(b)-11 Define, "sufficiently low protability", as that term ic ustd in Contenticn 1(b)-3. Provide the hamaa for NRDC's

definiticrt.

. Response l Small enough to demonstrate that the CDA frequency is less l

r than the criterion Intervenors presented in our LWA-1 testimony.

l Interrogatory l

1(b)-12 Specify the bases for selecting the probability identified in respartse to Interrogatory 1(b)-11 above, iniicating

, what acceptance criteria, methodologies, data, ard tests NRDC i

relies on in stpport of these bases.

Response

Inte rvenors presented the bases in our LWA-1 testimony.

l r

l

C Interrogatory 1(b)-13 Asstming the data base is established as postulated in the s@ contention, what does NRDC ccntend precludes establishing that CIns hwe a sufficiently low protabilitiy as defined above?

Response

The current CRBR design.

Interrogatory 1(b)-14 .9egwilts Contantion 1(b)(4): Set fcrth ulth speci ficity NRDC'r basis f.x amaarting that Applicants must cmplets the test program used for their relistilicy trogram trior to their proja-ted data for completion of construction of the CRE.R. .

Re'spo nse Inte rvencr s' basis is common sense. It would be much less usef ul if the tests were completed af ter the construction ms compl e ted . In the absenco of a comprohansive PRA, Inte rvenors do not believe one can reliably conclude that a CRBR CDA is rot credible, ar.d withcut an adeqaate data base, inclutling test results , one is unlikely to have an adequate PRA.

Response

Failure to adequately cool the core, i .e . core heat l generation exceeding the heat removal capability of the core, leads to temperatures in the fuel in excess of the melting point. The core melts and f alls or drains to the bottom of the reactor vessel under the force of gravity. The conduction of '

J Interrogatory 3(c)-13 In MDC's May 5,1982 response to Interrogatory 3-3.c of the Staff's First Ro.1rd of Discovery, filed on April 15, 1992, MtDC stated that "intervenors hwe not developed at this time spectfic acceptarce criteria, whi& intervencrs centerd must be utilised." Have the citeria now been developed? If so, please provide than alcmg with their h==aa. If rot, please state ten they will be provided.

Response

No. If Intervenors do so, these will be incorporated in their te stimony at the CP hearings.

Interrogatory 3(c)-14 In MtDC's May 5,1982 response to Interrogainry 3-3.e of the Staff's First Round of Discovery, filed on April 15, 1982, MtDC stated that the " probability of a CIA progressing to full core involvsamt ard meltthrotgh is high." Define "high" as usel in this response. What is the basis for this statemerit?

Respo nse For purposes of CRBR saf ety analyses, it is prudent to assume it is 100% although obviously this is taken as a i

conservative bounding assumption. It is Intervenors' understanding that Staff and Applicants are also in agreement in this regard. See SER, Appendix A.

CONTENTION 3 (d)

Interrogatory 3(d)-1 List all himan errors whidi EDC believes will initiate, exacerbate, & interfere with the mitigation of CIER m cidents.

Response

NRDC has no such list . Human errors are known to be a principle cause of nuclear reactor accidents as was indicated in

Inte rvenor s' LR-1 testimony.

4 Interrogatory 3(d)-2 Pbr each haan error listed by NRDC in its answer to '

Interrogatmy 3(d)-1, list all accidets that will be initiate 1, exacertated, or Whose mitigation will be interfered with.

Inte rvenors have not completed their review of the SER.

Interrogatory 3(d)-4 FT each section ard s@setien listed in NRDC's answer to Interrogatcry 3(d)-3, discuss in detail why the Staff's analysis is inadeq2 ate, ard set fcrth specific s@ jet matters which IRDC cmterds should be discussed in each SER secticn ard subsection.

Response

See response to 3(d)-3 above.

Inte rrogatory 3(d)-5 Define "aralyze", as that term is usal in Contention 3 (d ). Set forth the bases for NRIE 's definition.

Response

" Analyze" means "to study or dete rmine the nature and relationship of the parts of by analysis." Analysis is the separation of a whole into its component partsr an examination of

. . l l

a complex, its elements, and their relations. The basis for 1

these definitions is common English language usage as f ourx1 in  ;

Webste r's New Collegiate Dictionary.

1 Interrogatory 3(d)-6 Describe in detail what 15tDC believes the Staff must do in order to adegantely aralyse haan erras whidt may initiate, exacerbate, or interfere with mitigation of OtBR accidents.

Response

A comprehensive PRA and extensive f ailure mode and ef f ects analyses is a minimum requirement.

Inte rrogatory 3(d)-7 Does 15tDC consider human error at CRBR to be more or less of a potential problem than in LMs? Set forth the h for 15tDC's answar.

Response

Inte rvenors do not know, but as an informed estimate ,

Intervenors would assume it to be roughly comparable.

Interrogatory 3(d)-8 Set fcrth the criteria latDC utilizes (or contends should be utilized) in determining

  • ether human erra is more or less serious at CRBR *en compared to LMs. Set fath the bases f& NRDC's answer.

Response

Inte rvenors have developed no such criteria.

l ADMISSIONS Admission

1. Intervenors have not estimated the probability of occurrence of any Cm initiator for CER.

Response

l Intervenors can neither admit nor deny the statement since "CDA initiator" is not defined. Intervenors admit that Intervenors have not performed an independent PRA of CRBR.

Adnission

2. Intervenors have not identifiel any mechanisms for Cm initiation in CRBR not already adiressed cc enveloped in the CER PSAR, and the CRBR SER, NUBEGO)68.

Response

Intervenors can neither admit nor deny the statement as Intervenors have not completed their analysis of the SER.

Adnission

3. The Staff has identifiel and evaluated all potential mechanistic Cm initiators for CER.

Response

Intervenors can neither admit nor deny the statement. At one level, Intervenors would admit since all CDAs can be

classified as due to reduced coolant flow or excessive heat l , generation. At the other extreme, it is humanly impossible to identify every sequence of events that could lead to a CDA.

l L

) Admission .

4. The risk fran a CIA at CER is not sigrtificantly different than that at a LWR, as set fcrth in Appendix A of the CRER !ER.

Response

Inte rvenors can neither admit nor deny the statement without more precise understanding of "signi ficantly." In terv enors testified at the LWA-1 henrings that consequenees of a CIR in an LMFBR we re greater than the consequences of LWR CDA (i .e., core j meltdown).

Admissist

5. Intervenors do rot have a working knowledge of the m+ar codes described in AppeMix A of the CER SER, whids were utilized by the Staff in its CIA aralyses for CER.

! in all experiments relevant to '1hermal 14trgin Beyond Design Basis

("TM3IB") oxditicms are tounded by a rate of 0.2 in./heur.

Response

Intervenors can neither admit nor deny the statement since we have no bas is of knowing what is meant by "long term" nor do we have access to all experiments.

i Adnission

15. Urder the coniiticms existing af ter reactor vessel

penetraticn, a postulated one inch per hour penetration rate of sodium ani core debris into concrete is a reasonable typer bourd to the experimental data.

l

Response

Inte rvenor s deny the statement if the question ref ers to the present CRBR containment. It is the Intervenors' pos ition that

the CRBR containment design basis should be a CDA. Under these conditions 10 C.F.R.100 is not met. See our LR-1 Te stimony and Findings .
