SUBJECT:
Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant Unit Nos.1 & 2; Docket Nos. 50-317 & 50-318 Implementation of Fonnal Industry Position on Severe Accident Management
'Ihc purpose of this letter is to inform the Nuclear Regulatory Commission that the Baldmore Gas and Electric Company (BGE) intends to implement the formal industry position on severe accident management l
approved by the Nuclear Energy Institute's (NEI) Nuclear Strategic Issues Advisory Committee on November 4,1994. That formal position, previously communicated in a letter dated November 21,1994, from NEI to the Director, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, states that:
Each licensee will:
Assess current capabilities to respond to severe accident conditions using Section 5 of NEl 91-04, Revision 1, " Severe Accidentissue Closure Guidelines."
implement appropriate improvements identified in the assessment, within the constraints of existing personnel and hardware, on a schedule to be determined by each licensee and communicated to the NRC, but in any event no later than December 31,1998.
Based on previous interactions between NEI (Nuclear Management & Resources Council) and NRC staff, n understand that NRC staff agrees with the need for licensee flexibility in their methods of assessing and establishing severe accident management guidance. Utilizing the associated implementing guidance (contained in NEI Report 91-04, Revision 1), we intend to complete the assessment of sewre accident l
management capabilities and make any identified enhancements by December 31,1998.
This implementation schedule complements efforts currently underway at BGE to address the individual plant examination of external events by June 30,1996.
