STATEMENT OF WORK C.1.1.
BACKGROUND The Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR) has responsibility
'or the licensing and regulatory oversight of nuclear power reactors and nonpower research reactors in the civilian sector.
NRR implements regulations and develops and implements policies, programs, and procedures pertaining to all aspects of licensing and inspection of manufacturing, production and utilization facilities, except for those concerning fuel reprocessing plants and isotopic enrichment plants. Also included are (1) receipt, possession and ownership of nuclear materials used or produced at f acilities licensed under 10 CFR Part 50; (2) operation of such facilities; (3) emergency preparedness at such facilities; and (4) contractor and suppliers of such facilities.
NRR involvement begins with the extensive review of applications for construction permits and operating licenses for new reactors, and the complex procedures -including inspections from the outset of plant construction throughout the f acility's eventual operating lifetime
- leading to issuance of permits or licenses, and licensing actions processed thereafter.
NRR identifies and takes action regarding conditions and licensee performance that may adversely affect public health and safety, the environment, or the-safeguarding of nuclear reactor facilities, and-a$sesses and recommends or takes action regarding incidents or accidents.
NRR also provides special assistance as required in mitters involving reactor facilities exempt from licensing, guidance, nd implementation direction.
The Division of System Technology (DST) performs systems related safety evaluations of licensee implementation of approved NRC requirements and changes to existing licenses.
DST performs reviews of applications for new facilities or designs and provides technical expertise for special inspections, projects, progra_ms and policy activities.
It assists the NRC Regional Offices in the resolution of systems problems.
More specif<cally, DST reviews and evaluates functional performance requirements, design and performance of reactor trip systems, engineered safety features actuation systems, actuation instrumentation for essential ancillary support systems and instrumentation and control systems that initiate and regulate the operation of safe shutdown systems.
DST also reviews design and operation of of f tite power grid systems, utility grid and irterconnecting grids, reviews and evaluates functional performance of onsite power systems and interf ace between off site and onsite power systems.
DST also' reviews and evaluates
s Page 8
'AC-03-93-031 Section C functional performance requirements of essential auxiliary and support systems, reactor containment and associated support systems and design features that ensure operator protection.
Included is the new and spent fuel storage, issues related to fire protection, radioactive source term equipment qualification and post fire safe shutdowns.
DST also reviews reactor performance and evaluated thermal-hydraulic aspects of the reactor core under all conditions including core physics.
C.1.2.
CBJECTIVE The objective of this contract is to obtain technical expertise to assist NRR's Division of Systems Technology in accomplishing its licensing and inspection mission, programs and activities on a task-ordering basis in the areas of Systems Technology which encompasses the areas of Instrumentation and Control System.
Electrical Systems, Plant Systems and Reactor Systems.
C.1.3.

Section C Reactor core physics and related code analysis Normal and emergency operating procedures Radiation protection Severe accident impact analysis Experience in these disciplines and technical areas must be related to the design, construction, operation, maintenance, and inspection of nuclear power plants.
Emphasis is placed on experience that is related to safety where judgments are made as to whether applicable ccdes and federal regulations are being, or have been, implementad snd/or followed.
The contractor's Project Manager shall have the following responsibilities:
(1) oversight responsibility for all task orders placed under any resulting contract, (2) oversight respcnsibility for the efforts of any contractor's team assembled for each task order placed under any resulting contract, (3) performirg other project management duties necessary for successful completion of task orders and overall contract requirements, and (4) ensuring quality.of deliverables so that all information and data are accurate and complete.
C.1.4.
WORK REQUIREMENTS The work under the contract is estimated to be issued through about 30 task orders over the base period of performance and through about 20 task orders under each option year.
It is possible that more than one task order may be in place simultaneously.
The completion schedule will be determined for each task order when the task order is issued.
The NRC's Division of Systems Technology may issue task orders under this contract within the following program areas to support-the Division's activities.
In the event that NRR management reassigns any of these program areas to anotner Division,-the contractor shall continue to support the reassigned program area even though it supports another Division.
