20A.

The Advisory Committee on Nuclear Waste (ACNW) was established by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission in June 1988. The ACNW is tasked in its charter to, " . . . report to and advise the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) on nuclear waste management, as directed by the Commission on the basis of periodic reviews of ACNW proposals. This includes 10 CFR Parts 60, 61, and 72 (as applied to other than the site of production and utilization facilities) and other applicable regulations and legislative mandates such as the Nuclear Waste Policy Act, the Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Act, and the Uranium Mill Tailings Radiation Control Act, as amended. The primary emphasis will be on dis?csal but will also include other activities of f-site of productLon and utilization f acilities, such as handling, processing, transportation, storage, and safeguarding of nuclear wastes including spent fuel, nuclear wastes mixed with other hazardous substances, and uranium mill-tailings. In performing its work, the Committee will examine and report on those areas of concern refcrred to it by the Commission or its designated representatives, and will undertake other studies and activities on its own initiative related to those issues directed by the Commission."

1

l NRC 4 Advisory Committee on Nuclear Wasta 20A. Continued ACNW reports (except any that may contain classified material) are mado part of the public record. Activities of the Committee are conducted in accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act, which provides for public attendance at and participation in Committee meetings. The ACNW membership, which is drawn from scientific and engineering disciplines, includes individuals experienced in geosciences, radiation protection, radioactive waste treatment, environmental engineering, nuclear engineering, and chemistry.

During FY 1992, the ACNW reported to the Commission and others on a variety of issues as listed in Section C, 16B.

In performing the reviews and preparing the reports cited above, the ACNW held 11 full Committee meetings and 6 working group sessions.

The ACNW in conducting its reviews meets regularly with the NRC staff, the industry, other government agencies, and interested members of the public and public interest groups. The Committee and the NRC staff interact under procedures established by a Memorandum Of Understanding which gives the ACNW the opportunity to review a broad range of HRC staff regulatory actions. In addition, the Committee has periodic meetings with the NRC Commissioners to discuss issues of mutual interest. The Committee's work has had a significant impact on the NRC regulatory process. Examples of particular interest are in the Committee's work with the U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency's High-Level Radioactive Waste Repository Standards, the regulation of mixed waste, groundwater protection at low-level waste disposol sites, and the review of the site characterization plans for the Yucca Mountain High-Level Waste Repository.

20B.

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission, on the basis of the technical review functions outlined in the Committee's charter, appoints ACNW L members from scientific and engineering disciplines with three I

prerequisites in mind: outstanding scientific and technical ability, balanced and mature judgment, and willingness to devote-the time requirea to the demanding work involved. The pool of persons so qualified is limited. At the end of September 1992, the Committee included two members from academic institutions, one member who is an employee of a national laboratory, and one member from private industry. There has been a conscious effort to obtain members with backgrounds that can address the difficult and diverse questions associated with radioactive waste disposal. This permits and fosters a concentration of scientific proficiency within the Committee, together with a diversity of viewpoints and l

I. _ , - - ,- .

NRC 5 Advisory Committoo on Nucicar Waste 20B. Continued perspectives, which provide assurance that adequate, independent, open discussion and analysis of the potential hazards of nuclear waste can take place.

During FY 1992, the membership has included engineers and scientists experienced in radioactive waste management, health physics, chemistry, nuclear engineering, environmental engineering, performance assessment, geology, geophysics, and seismotectonics.

The diversity of viewpoints presently represented by current ACNW members is broadly based from the standpoint of special fields of interest, employment experience, and scientific or technical specialty. These membership characteristics provide the Committee with a balance of highly qualified technical experts in the fields necessary to carry out the Committee's mandate.

20C.

The ACHW and its working groups held 17 meetings during FY 1992.

The number of mootings held is directly related to the review schedule and scope of efforts on the high-level waste geologic repository, the number of critoria, guides, and technical positions referred for review and comment, the number of special reviews requested by the NRC, and topics of particular concern / interest to the Committee. The full Committee plans to continue meeting on approximately a monthly basis during CY 1993. Full Committee meetings generally run two to three days and cover a variety of topics (review of the site characterization plan and related NRC staff analysis, technical positions on high-level and low-level waste issues, briefings and reviews of-rulemakings, etc.). For particularly complex issues, the ACNW holds working group meetings where additional time and expertise can be brought to bear on an issue and the subject developed prior to full Committee considerations. If the Committee is to continue to meet the requirements of its charter, it will need to continue to meet at least on a similar frequency in the future.

20D.

The ACNW is an independent organization that is mandated to advise the NRC on nuclear waste management, as directed by the Commission on the basis of periodic reviews of ACNW proposals. The Committee is unique in that there exists no comparable body of acknowledged experts in the field of nuclear waste management whose mandate is to provide the Commission wi'h independent advice in this area.

The Commission necessarily 'n, its own expert staff on whom it relies in the day-to-day regulation of nuclear waste. However, there is no other advisory committee, within the Commission, with the current, broadly based knowledge of the ACNW that could be

NHC 6 Advisory Committee on Nuclear Waste 20D. Continued called upon for independent assessment of safety issues related to high- and low-level waste management and disposal.

In addition, since ACNW members are part-time advisors with other full-time interests and activities in related fields, they generate an organized synergistic approach to provide a breadth of experience and state-of-the-art technical knowledge that would be difficult to duplicate with full-time government employees.

A continuing committee such as the ACNW also remains current with respect to nuclear waste issues, including related safety research, and provides a collegial judgment regarding these issues that would be impossible to duplicate by use of individual, part-time consultants on a case-by-case basis.

Through the ACNW, the public is provided assurance that an independent technical review and evaluation of nuclear waste safety issues is accomplished and an opportunity for public input during ACHW meetings is assured.

20E.

During this period, the Committee held 17 meetings, portions of 3 meetings were closed. Time spent in closed scosions occupied only 4 hours. These portions were closed to discuss information submitted in confidence by a foreign source (10 CFR 2.790(d) (2) )

and information that release of would represent a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy (5 U.S.C. 552b(c) (6) ] .

The Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards' (ACRS), established by statute in 1957, provides advice to the Commission on potential' hazards of proposed or existing reactor fac!lities and the. adequacy -

of proposed safety standards. The Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as revised, requires that the ACRS advise-the Commission with respect.

to the safety of operating reactors and perform such other. duties as . the Commission, may request. Consistent with. the. Energy.

Reorganization Act of 1974, as amended, the Committee will review any- matter related to the safety of nuclear facilities specifically

- requested by the Department of Energy (DOE) and~will provide any assistance requested by the Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board. Also,.in accordance with Public Law 95-209, the ACRS is required to prepare an annual raport to th3 U.S. . Congress on=the NRC Safety Research Program.

The.ACRS reviews requests for preapplication site - and. standard

Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards plant approvals, each application for a construction permit or an operating license for power reactors, applications for licenses to _

construct or operate test reactors, and substantive amendments to such licenses.

Consistent with the statutory charter of the Committee, ACRS reports, record.

except for classified reports, are made part of the public Activition of the Committee are conducted in accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act, which provides for public attendance at and participation in Committee mootings. The ACRS membership, which is drawn from scientific and engineering disciplines, includes individuals experienced in reactor operations, nuclear reactor systems design, electrical engineering, chemical engineering, civil engineering, materials engineering, mechanical engineering, nuclear engineering, reactor design, heat transfer and fluid flow, thermodynamics, reactor physics, and probabilistic risk analysis.

During FY 1992, the Committee completed the reports listed in Section C, 1GB, which includes its annual report to Congress on the overall NRC Safety Research program. In performing the reviews _ and preparing these reports, the ACRS held 12 full Committee meetings '

and 74 subcommittee meetings.

The ACRS in conducting its reviews moots regularly with the NRC staff, the industry, other government agencies, and interested members of the public and public interest-groups. The Committee and the NRC staff interact under procedures established by a Memorandum Of Understanding, which gives the ACRS the opportunity to review a broad range-of NRC regulatory actions.

In addition, the Committee has periodic meetings with the NRC Commissioners and with individual NRC office directors to discuss issues of mutual-interest. The Committee's work has had a significant impact on the NRC regulatory process. Examples of particular interest are the Committee's work on the development of requirements for and the licensing of standard plant designs, safety issues associated with operating nuclear power plants nuclear power plant license renewal, severe accident issues, , nuclear safety research, and the implementation of the NRC Safety Goal Policy.

20B.

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission, on the basis of the technical review functions outlined _in the statutory' mission of the Committee, appoints ACRS members- from- the scientific and engineering disciplines with_ three prerequisites in mind:

outstanding scientific and technical ability, balanced and mature judgment, and willingness to devote the time required to - the

-demanding work involved. The pool of persons so qualified is limited. At the end of September 1992, the Committee _ included members from- academic institutions with nuclear -and nonnuclear

NRC 8 Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards backgrounds, members who have retired from active employment in the nuclear field, and a member currently employed at a nuclear development laboratory. There has been a conscioun effort to obtain members trained in both nuclear and the nonnuclear dinciplines who have had considerable expcelence in various fields needed to evaluate proposed design, construction, and operation of nuclear power planto and related facilities. Thic permits and facters ccientific and engineering proficiency witain the Committee, together with a diversity of viewpoints and perspectives, which provide assurance that adequate discussion and analysis of the potential hazards of nuclear reactors and the adequacy of safety standards can take place.

During FY 1992, the membership included those experienced in reactor operations; reactor physics; management; prohbilistic risk assessment; analysis of reactor accident phenomena; human f actors; design of nuclear power plant structures, systems, and componento; and mechanical, civil, and electrical engineering.

When vacancica arise, the NRC issues public announcements coliciting nomineen to provide for public involvomant in the nominating process f or ACRS members. In the past, nominations have been received from the public, including organizations auch as public interest groups and technical societion, and wo expect this interest to continue when future vacancies are announced. Further, the diversity of viewpoints presently represented by current ACRS members in broadly based from the standpoint of special fields of interest, employment experience, and scientific or technical specialty. These memberchip characteristics provide the Committee with a balance of highly qualified technical experts in the nuclear and nonnuclear fields necessary to carry out the Committee's statutory requirements.

20C.

The ACRS and its subcommittees held 86 meetings during FY 1992.

The number of meetings held is directly related to the number of reactor project reviews referred by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to the Committee for review or required by statute; the number of generic issues that aroso during the year; the number of critoria and guides referred to the Committee for review and comment; the number of special reviews requested by the NRC and Congress; and areas of particular interest / concern to the Committee. The full Committee normally meets once a month for a three-day session to consider projects, generic and special reviews, and critoria and regulatory guides that are ready for full Committee consideration. ACRS subcommittees meet as necessary with licensees, NRC staff, and others to develop information for the Committee on the particular matters under review and to identify those matters warranting particular attention by the full Committee. If the Committee is to continue to meet the I

NRC 9 Advisory Committoo on Reactor Safeguards requirements of the statute that established it, and the later additions and amendments, it will need to continue to meet at a similar frequency in the future.

20D.

As established by the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards is a group of part-time experts mandated to perform certain specific functions and provide advice to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission with regard to the potential hazards of proposed or existing nuclear f acilities and the adequacy of proposed reactor standards. The Committee is unique in that there exists no comparable body composed of acknowledged experts in the field of nuclear reactor safety whose Congressional mandate is to provide the Commission with indenendent advice in this area.2 The Commission necessarily has its own expert staff on whom it relies in the day-to-day regulation of nuclear power facilities.

However, there is no other advisory committee, either within the Commission or in other agencies, with the currant, broadly based knowledge of the ACRS that could be called upon to provide advice to NRC for independent assessments of reactor safety issues.

In addition, since ACRS members are primarily part-time advisors with other full-time interests and activities in related fields, they generate an organized synergistic approach to provide a breadth of experience and state-of-the-art technical knowledge that would be difficult to duplicate with full-time government employees.

A continuing committee such as the ACRS also remains current with respect to nuclear safety issues, including related reactor operating experience and safety research, and provides a collegial judgment regarding these issues that would be impossible to duplicate by use of individual, part-time consultants on a case-by-case basis.

Through the ACRS, the public and the Congress are provided assurance that an independent technical review and evaluation of nuclear reactor projects and safety issues is accomplished and an opportunity for public input during ACRS meetings is assured.

1 The Komony Commission was established by the President after the accident at Three Mile Island. Its purpose was to conduct a comprehensive study and investigation of the accident. In its Report of the President's Commission On the Accident at Three Mile Island, the Commission recommended that the members of the committee should continue as part-time appointees; the Commission believes that the independence and high quality of the members might be compromised by making them full-time federal employees.

T NRC ADVISORY _ COMMITTEE ON THE MEDICAL USES OF ISOTOPES FY1992 ANNUAL REPORT 20A. HOW THE COMMITTEE ACCOMPLISHES ITS PURPOSE The NRC staff believes that both licensees and the general public benefit when recognized experts provide advice to the staff on medical issues in which NRC's standards may be unclear or inapplicable and when these experts can provide advice on rulemaking and other initiatives at critical stages throughout their development.

The ACMUI met in November 1991, May and July of 1992. The topics discussed included: the Quality Management Rule, that required licensees to have quality management programs; the Interim Fintl Rule, involving the use of radiopharmaceuticals; training and experience, supervision, the administration of byproduct material to pregnant or nursing women, and abnormal occurrence criteria. One closed meeting was held to examine the training and experience criteria for physicians who wanted to be authorized users, but whose credentials did not exactly meet the requirements listed in 10 CFR Part 35, Subpart J.

20B BALANCE OF MEMBERSHIP The committee's membership is comprised of five physicians, one nuclear pharmacist, two medical physicists, one nuclear medicine technologist, one representative with the States' perspective, one patient,s rights and care advocate, and one representative from the FDA. The members all have demonstrated professional qualifications and expertise in those scientific and technical disciplines directly related to the NRC's regulation of byproduct material in the practice of medicine.

20C MEETING FREQUENCY The Committee may increase their meeting frequency from two to three meetings to accommodate the Commissioners' recent request for a yearly meeting with them.

20D WHY ADVICE CANNOT BE OBTAINED FROM OTHER SOURCES The necessary advice to be provided by the ACMUI cannot be obtained from other sources within the NRC. To develop and maintain an in-house capability to match the quality and quantity of expert advice embodied in the advisory committee would be difficult , if not impossible. There appear to be no other sources within NRC or elsewhere which have the individual expertise capable of providing the in-depth advice needed.

20E CLOSED MEETING It was necessary to hold a closed meeting in November 1991 to examine physicians credentials. The meeting was closed to ensure the physicians privacy.

20A. i T'.e panel met two times during FY 1992-to consider a variety of topics relating to the placement of the damaged Three Mile Island Nuclear Station, Unit 2, into long-term storage, including the '

continued and future availability of funding for decommissioning, the status of planning for future activities,'and the status and progress of on-going cleanup of the facility. -Throughout its-existence,-the panel's advice has resulted in modifications in.

the NRC's regulatory activities in the cleanup effort.

Periodically, the panel meets directly with the'NRC Commissioners to express their views - the next such meeting is scheduled for December 1, 1992.

20B. ,

The panel is composed of local citizens and scientists. It ,

includes members that are both supportive, as well as critical of the actions taken by the licensee and regulatory agencies. A number of scientific disciplines are represented, including =

engineering, health physics and physics. The panel functions as .

a collegiate body that, after hearing reports by various organizations and discussion among the-members, votes on various positions or resolutions and communicates them to the NRC Commissioners.

20C.

The panel has in the past met between two-(2) and twelve (12) times per year. The frequency of meetings is dependent on the number of issues before the panel and perceived public interest.

The frequency of meetings is sufficient to justify continuance of the panel for another year, during which key decisions and activities will take place to ready the facility for. post-defueling monitored storage.

20D.

The principal purpose of the panel is to provide a formalized.

conduit to'the NRC Commissioners informing them of.the concerns of local citizens regarding actions being taken to cleanup a damaged nuclear powered electric generating facility on their community.

Section E 20A. Describe how the committee accomplishes its purpose by showing the effect ,.

of committee reports, advice, or recommendations on agency operations.

The Panel was established to provide advice to (1) the Department of Energy on the fundamental issues of design and development- of an electronic informatioa management system known as the LSS, and (2) the NRC-on the operation and maintenance of the LSS. The LSS will store and retrieve records and documents relating to the licensing of a geologic repository for the disposal of high-level radioactive waste (HLW). Its purpose is to assist the parties in the licensing proceeding by providing a vehicle for early document discovery, comprehensive and early technical review of millions of pages of relevant licensing material, earlier submission of better focused contentions, and the electronic transmission -

of all filings durina the hearing. The Panel's recommendations on document header requircments have been incorporated into guidance under preparation by the LSSA for use by future LSS participants in processing documents for submission. Also, Panel comments have been received and reviewed by the NRC for inclusion in the Regulatory Guide on topical-guidelines for identifying the documentary material that should be submitted for entry into the LSS.

20B. Describe the balance of membership in terms of points of view represented and functions performed.

The Panel is composed of representatives of the potential participants in NRC's future licensing proceeding for a HLW repository. Congress has mandated that DOE characterize a potential site for the repository within the State of Nevada in the mountain formation known as Yucca Mountain.

Representation is, therefore, drawn from the State of Nevada and from two coalitions of governmental entities located in the immediate site areas-and in the counties adjacent to the Yucca Mountain site area. Other potentially affected parties are also represented: the National Congress of American Indians, a coalition of nuclear industry groups, and the Department of Energy (the potential licensee). National environmental groups were invited to participate but declined. NRC is represented on the Panel, and its member serves as Chairman. As participants in the proceeding, these orgaaizations will utilize the LSS for review of pertinent and relevant documents before and during tne proceeding itself.

As future users of the system, they are best equipped to advise on the design, development, and operation of the LSS. Review of LSS-related issues by the representatives of organizations that will be significantly affected by the LSS is critical to its successful implementation.

Representatives of other Federal agencies with significant experience developing automated information management systems serve on the Panel to provide their expertise on specific design, procurement, and operational issues.

l

)

q l

20C. Describe the frequency of meetings and the relevance to continuing the committee.  ;

1 The Panel did not meet during FY 1992, but plans -to meet approximately-three times in FY 1993. There were no meetings in FY 1992 because the ]

NRC is looking at alternative approaches to design, install, operate and maintain the LSS in a more workable and cost-effective manner. When a recommended approach is reached, a meeting of the Panel will be convened to discuss and receive members' comments on the proposal. In the future, the number of meetings will increase as activities related to development of the LSS escalate necessitating increased advice from the Panel. Near-term issues to be addressed by the Panel include document loading priorities, procedures for granting access to the system, and capture of non-documentary information.

200. Explain why the advice or information cannot be obtained from other-sources.

The Panel is comprised of the potential users of the LSS. The Commission believes that the review of LSS development issues by representatives of those organizations that will be significantly affected by the LSS is critical to its successful implementation. As other potential users-are-identified, they will be invited to participate. Federal agencies with substantial expertise and experience in electronic information management systems also participate on the Panel. There are no other sources which can bring the direct user perspective to bear on this . unique automated licensing support system,

The report on the_ 11/25-26 meeting provided comments on the general approach and distribution -

of emphasis of the equipment aging research program and the research program concerning high-level waste disposal. The NSRRC comments were taken into account _by the Director, Office of  ;

)OC. DESCR ibE THE FREQUENCY OF MEE TINGS AND INE kELEV ANCE 10 CONI 4NVING INE COMMITIEE.

Appioximately two meetings per year, Nuclear regulatory research is a continuing essential and integral function of the NRC, as mandated by statute. The NSRRC's independent review is needed as a continuing contribution to assuring appropriate and effective response of the NRC's research efforts to evolving regulatory needs.
