SUBJECT:
GESSAR As'.vou know, the Comission has approved the Severe Accident Policy Stdtement by notation vote, with minor comments. Therein, the Comission has established the following policy for new designs:
"The Comission believes that a new design for a nuclear power plant (as well as a proposed custom plant) can be shown to be acceptable for severe accident concerns if it meets the following criteria and procedural requirements [among others]:
- a. " Demonstration of compliance with the procedural
+
, requirenents and criteria of the current Commission regulations, including the Three Mile Island i
requirements for new plants as reflected in the CP Rule [10 CFR 50.34(f)];
b.
Demonstration of technical resolution of all applicable Unresolved Safety Issues and the medium-and high-priority Generic Safety Issues, including a special focus on assu' ring the reliability of decay heat removal systems and the reliability of both AC and DC electrical supply systems..."
I would appreciate a brief description of how GESSAR has demonstrated:
(a) corpliance with i 50.44(c)(3)(iv) and (b) technical resolution of USI's A-47, A-46, A-45, A-44 and A-17.
To the extent practicable, the description should draw a distinction between current BWR6/P/PK,1II designs and the GESSAR design, cc: Chairman Palladino Comissioner Roberts Res4 0ff.E00 Commissioner Bernthal h' " ' 6 *- W E S Commissioner Zech N "'" "")"II I M*'*
