Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation items of Interest Week Ending January 29, 1993 1herrno-Leo (SplB1 The Nuclear Utilities Management and Resources Committee (NVKARC) has decided to proceed with their initial Thermo-l.ag testing at Omega Point. Although a comp 1nte test program is not finalized, they have sufficient common configurations to proceed. Th';r jnliinl test program configuration will be finalized shortly and a description submitted to NRC in early Februa.y.

Construction is to start at the end of February using P ility installers.

Testing will commence in April. The manufacturer (15., is to supply all materials. To the extent possible, it is NUMARC's intent to use warehoused material from utilities and replace the warehouse stock with the new TSI supplied material, initial tests will use primarily 3-hour material with a 36" cable tray with air drop and 24" cable tray with air drop plus a 24" T section. A 36" ) ' 1r cable tray with air drop and several conduits will also be tested. All configurations except 3" and 5" conduits will include upgrades. The test program will use minimum cable fills and rely primarily on qualification based on temperature; however, provisions are incorporated to perform functional testing. Their intent is to test to the NRC proposed criteria.

[ LWR Water luel A meeting was held with the BWR Owners' group (BWROG) on January 15, 1993, to update the staff on current BWROG activities to assess and address potential inaccuracies of BWR water level instrumentation. These inaccuracies are caused by the evolution of dissolved non-condensible gas during and after rapid depressurization events. The BWROG provided an update of the status of each of the program activities, and reported that the testing and analyses program is proceeding on schedule with the exce) tion of the condensate chamber test, which is on hold pending the results of tio Ce-gas test. The staff requested a telephone conference call on February 1,1993, to update the staff on any ongoing BWROG activities prior to our public meeting in Plymouth, MA.

on february 3. The BWR00 invited the staff to tour and inspect the de-gas test facility in Charlotte, NC. in mid-february. The staff also requested a separate meeting to discuss acce>tance criteria. Plans for both of these meetings will be finalized on fearuary 1.

Enhanced Participjttory Rulemakino Workshoo The Radiation Protection Branch is attending the first of a series of enhanced participatory rulemaking workshops that is being held in Chicago on January 27 and 28, 1993. The purpose of the workshops (seven scheduled through May) is to solicit the advice and recommendations of affected interest groups on the fundamental approaches and issues that must be addressed to establish site cleanup criteria. The eventual role will then establish radiological criteria for decommissioning.

2 Beetina With NUMARC_gn its Alternative Protection Strateay On January 22, 1993, the DRSS staff had a second public meeting with the Nuclear Utilities Management and Resources Committee (NVMARC) to discuss the goals of its alternative protection strategy (APS) in relation to the staff's effort to reexamine nuclear power plant security requirements associated with the internal threat. The staff informed NUMARC that the APS could not be fully implemented without a rule change and reconsideration of the NRC's design basis threat. The staff discussed each of the four areas of NUMARC's APS and confirmed its understanding of NVMARC's primary goals for each of these areas. NUMARC's staff confirmed their position that they were not considering any alternative positions and had not initiated efforts to develop industry standards related to the areas addressed in their APS. The staff informed NUMARC that plans were to complete the reexamination of internal security requirements, including any proposals for altcrnative approaches, by early March and report back to the Commisshn. NUMARC agreed to inform the staff of any new initiatives on its ) art regarding development of standards relevant to the topics discussed so t1at this could be noted in the staff response to the Commission.

Yontle 1 and 2 - Pnhearina Activitin Following the prehearing conference of January 12, 1993, regarding the licensee's request for amendments to transfer operating responsibility to Southern Nuclear, the Board has requested that the parties file briefs addressing the following three questions: (1) What is authorized by the current license or included in the updated FSAP about whether the organizational structere for operation of Vogtle may include, directly or indirer.tly, Southern Nuclear? (2) How do NRC regulations and practices affect the interpretation of the license and updated FSAR? (3) To what extent is the character or competence of individuals already jointly employed by Georgia Power Company and Southern Nuclear in the management of Vogtle relevant to approval of the requested license amendment? OGC and NRR are preparing responses to be submitted by February 5, 1993.

Browns ferry Unit 2 has been in an extended )ower coastdown since October 1992. This coastdown will continue until tie upcoming Cycle 6 refueling outage which begins January 29, 1993. The outage is scheduled to last for 120 days. As of today, the maximum power level achievable by Unit 2 was about 66%. The unit has been online for the last 119 days, its longest continuous run since restart on May 24, 1991. The upcoming outage will be a significant challenge for TVA as they attempt to manage a large number of major plant modifications.

Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards Items of Interest Week Ending January 29, 1993 Periodic Ouality Assurance 10M Meetina On January 26, 1993, staff from the Division of High-Level Waste Management attended a meeting with the staff of the Department of Energy (DOE), Office to discuss issues of mutual of Civilian Radioactive Waste Management interest related to the QA arogram for the DOE h (OCRWM)igh-level vaste repository.

Topics discussed included tle UCRWM fiscal year 1993 audit schedule, OCRWM evaluation of the Management and Operating contractor's QA program, and QA oversight of core drilling and other field activities. The meeting was attended by representatives of the State of Nevada, Senator Reid's office, Clark County, Nevada, and the Edison Electric Institute.

Draft Saftty Ana hsis Report of Envirocare of Ulah - Issued On January 25, 1993, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff issued a Draft Safety Analysis Report (DSAR) of Envirocare of Utah's application for a license to receive, store, and dispose of byproduct material, as defined in Section lle.(2) of the Atomic Energy Act. The DSAR summarizes the NRC staff review of the license application for compliance with applicable standards.

The DSAR has identified a number of open issues which must be resolved before NRC can issue a license.

lkarina on Clean Air Act Standards On January 14, 1993, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) held a hearing in Washington, DC, to hear public comment on its proposed rule to rescind Clean Air Act requirements of 40 CFR Part 61, Subpart I for Nuclear Regulatory Commission- and Agreement State-licensed facilities other than nuclear power reactors (57 [B 56877 December 1, 1992).

NRC staff presented testimony at the public hearing. In its statement, NRC staff expressed support for EPA's proposed decision to rescind Subpart 1, and encouraged EPA to take final action by March 31, 1993.

Testimony was also provided by individuals representing the American College of Nuclear Physicians (ACNP), NUMARC, and Citizens for Safe Waste Disposal (CFSWD).

NUMARC and ACNP were supportive of EPA's proposed rescission and the cooperation between NRC and EPA to eliminate dual regulation. CFSWD voiced strong opposition to EPA's proposal to rescind. CFSWD is a citizen group based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, organized in response to public concerns about a University of Michigan incinerator licensed by NRC and permitted by the State of Michigan to burn radioactive pathological waste, in addition a private citizen expressed his opposition to the proposed rescission on the basis that NRC's program provides a much lower level of protection of public health than EPA's program.

, 2 FRC Staff Attends Meetina of the Michioan Air Pollution Centrol Commission On January 19, 1993, Nuclear Regulatory Commission Headquarters and Region 111 staff attended a meeting of the Michigan Air Pollution Control Commission (APCC). The APCC issues permits for sources of toxic air pollution (which includeradionuclides)intheStateofMichigan. The Michigan Department of-Natural Resources (DNR) requested NRC staff attend the meeting because of .

their concerns about overlapping jurisdiction and potential duplication of  !

cffort between the regulatory programs under the Atomic Energy Act and the  ;

Clean Air Act. The DNR is reviewing an application from the University of Michigan to modify a currently-permitted (and NItC-licensed) radioactive pathological waste incinerator. DNR is a'so reviewing a permit application to incinerate radioactive waste at a new incinerator at the university. DNR regulations provide for an exemption from the State of Michigan if radioactive emissions are authorized by NRC. However, DNR regulations also mandate that  !

all toxic air pollutants be regulated to levels that do not cause cancer risks in excess of 1 in 1 million to 10 in 1 million.

Region !!! staff stated that the University of Michigan has not yet submitted to the NRC a license application or license amendment request for the two incinerators at issue. The DNR and the APCC appeared amenable to working closely with NRC and deferring to NRC to the extent allowable under State law.

Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research Items of Interest Week Ending January 29, 1993 Prioritira_ tion of Valves Bgg d on Risk Impact At the request of HRR CEMEB), DE (RES) held _a mooting with NRR/EMEB on 1993, to dSscuss methods and results of a preliminary analysis January for priorit 26,izing valves based on risk, to help ensure focusing of licensee and NRC attention on valves that are most important to safety. Some utilities are considering risk methods to identify and prioritize motor-operated valves (MOVs) that are covered by Generic Letter (GL) 89-10. " Safety-Related Motor-Operated Valve Testing and Surveillance." DE (RES) had recently sponsor.ed research to develop a risk-based methodology for identifying and prioritizing structures, systems,andcomponents(SSCs)whoseaginghasthemostimpacton core damage frequency (C0F). One of the main features of the method is the capability to calculate the effects of multiple component failure interactions in addition to the effects of single component failures. Dr. William Vesely, of Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC), was the developer of this risk-based methodology. With little effort, tt was possible to use the methodology to address the NRR (EMEB) interest on valves.

The analysis to identify the most important valves was performed by regenerating the full population of cutsets (used in the NUREG-1150 PRAs) for three specific plants. The cutsets containing valves that had been truncated out were reinstated into the PRA model. Each of the valves was assigned a failure probability (unavailability) of unity and the resulting changes in CDF calculated. The full population of cutsets is necessary for this analysis because premature truncation resulting from the use of nominal failure rates will eliminate important components from the model.

The main results of the analysis show that the unavailability of single valves has in general relatively little impact on C0F; however, the results also show that the simultaneous unavailability of two or more valves can have much more significant impact on CDF.

These findings could be used by NRR (EMEB) staff, Region inspectors, and licensees to prioritize valves for inspection and maintenance based on risk impact. DE (RES) staff will prepare a report on the method used and the results of this analysis. A Research Information Letter (RIL) will also be prepared to highlight these findings for future applications.

The DE (RES) staff will extend this work to incorporate pumps, and other components as needs are identified.

OECD/CSNI Specialisti Meetino on fuel Coolant Interactions (Steam Explosions)

This internat9ai Mting on steam explosion related phenomena and issues was held in S@ cwMra, California, on January 5-8, 1993. The results of the more recent sten explosion research have supported the conclusions of the special NRC Steam Explosion Review Group (SERG) in NUREG-1116 (1985) and the more recent evaluations in NUREG/CR-5030 that the conditional probability of.

the alpha mod,e contajnment failure from an in-vessel steam ex)1osion is small (range of 10' to 10' ) . This conclusion came primarily from limitations to the mixing of the molt with water and steam in the pre-explosion mixing phase of the interaction and this estimate has been largely confirmed by the recently performed extensive research. Significant research has also been performed on steam explosion energetics, again generally confirming earlier estimates. There has been less research on the third im>ortant phenom-enological area, steam explosion triggering. It should )e pointed out that for purposes of risk estimation it is always assumed that steam explosions will be triggered regardless of the ambient conditions, even though the TMI-2 '

accident provided some evidence that steam explosions are not triggered at high ambient pressures.

This was a very successful technical meeting, es)ecially in addressing in-vessel steam explosion related phenomena and alpia containment-failure-mode processes. Specific ex-vessel considerations, in particular shock pressures and impulsive loadings, received little direct attention. Most of the papers, and however, treated general this is applicable steamas to ex-vessel explosion well as technology (except triggering),itten in-vessel conditions. The wr papers presented will be published by the OECD/CSN! as conference proceedings and are currently available from R.W. Wright (492-3570).

There is disagreement among the German participants on the details of the steam explosion that severely damaged the Beta facility (for melt-concrete interaction research) and also on the reactor-safety significance of that explosion. With the almost complete absence of measuren.ents, the differing interpretations are likely to persist.

1. An Order imposing Civil Penalty in the amount of $15,000 was issued on January 25, 1993, to the Department of the Army. The action was based on a breakdown in control of licensed activities involving seven violations associated with the licensee's control of M1A1 collimators cataining tritium. The violations, in the aggregate, were considered to be a Severity Level 111 problem and the base civil penalty was escalated for peor past performance in the area of concern and prior opportunity to identify. The licensee responded to the Notice in letters dated October 23, 1992, and took exception to the severity level assigned to the violations as well as the application of the civil penalty adjustment factors for corrective action, licensee performance, and prior opportunity to identify. After careful consideration of the licensee's response, the staff has concluded that the violations are appropriately categorized and the licensee did not provide a basis for any mitigation of the civil penalty amount. (EN 92-079A)

2. An Order imposing Civil Penalties in the amount of $300,000 was issued on January 29, 1993, to New York Power Authority (FitzPatrick). The action was based on violations in five areas: (1) inadequate post-modification testing of Reactor Protection System relays, (2) inadequate corrective actions, (3) fire protection program implementation, (4) 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix R, requirements, and (5) the submittal to the NRC of inaccurate information. The licensee responded to the Notice in a letter dated October 15, 1992. After careful consideration of the licensee's response, the staff has concluded that the violations did occur as set forth in the Notice of Violation and Proposed imposition of Civil Penalties. However, the staff has decided to exercise broad enforcement discretion and has reduced the civil penalties by 40%, in -

recognition of the substantive management changes and recent trend of improved performance, as exemplified by the conservative approach to plant operations exhibited during the recent restart of the FitzPatrick reactor. (EN 92-071A)

response to the Order Suspending the License issued on January 20, 1993. ,

2. Oyster Creek On January 25, 1993, the Oyster Creek facility was exiting a special test condition for testing the. main steam isolation valves when it was determined that the plant may have inadvertently changed operating modes. The testing employed an air over)ressure on the reactor to leak test the main steam isolation valves. 51utdown cooling was configured to maintain limited flow through the reactor core by balancing flow through the unisolated reactor coolant loops. It is believed that the flow rate was insufficient to maintain positive flow through the reactor core and it was bypassed through one of the idle reactor coolant loops.

This caused the reactor core cooling water temperature to rise above 212 degrees F for a short period of time.

Because of the complexity of the thermal-hydraulic response of the reactor system and concerns for the management and control of the testing sequence, an Augmented Inspection Team was dispatched to the site. The team consists of members from Region I, NRR, and AEOD.

Preliminary discussions with the team leader on January 28, 1993, did not provide any new insights to-the event.- The team is expected to continue the inspection into next week.
