, JANUARY 28 AND 29, 1982 EXTREME EXTERNAL PHENOMENA SUBCOMMITTEE OF THE ACRS - THE USGS INDICATED THAT IT HAD FORMED A WORKING GROUP TO REASSESS THE VALIDITY OF ITS PAST POSITION ON THE CHARLESTON EARTHOUAKE-

, FEBRUARY 5, 1982 - COMMISSION INFORMATION PAPER (SECY-82-53) INFORMED THE COMMISSION OF THE POTENTIAL SIGNIFIC' ANT IMPACT THAT ANY MAJOR MODIFICATION OF THE USGS POSITION

. COULD HAVE ON EASTERN U. S. NUCLEAR. PLANT SITES NOVEMBER 18, 1982 - RECEIVED USGS LETTER CONTAINING CLARIFICATION OF THEIR PAST POSITION

2

- i "BECAUSE THE GE0 LOGIC AND TECTONIC FEATURES OF THE CHARLESTON REGION ARE SIMILAR TO THOSE IN OTHER REGIONS OF THE EASTERN SEAB0ARD, WE CONCLUDE THAT ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO RECENT OR HISTORICAL EVIDENCE THAT OTHER REGIONS HAVE EXPERIENCED STRONG EARTHQUAKES, THE HISTORICAL RECORD IS NOT, 0F ITSELF, SUFFICIENT GROUNDS FOR RULING OUT THE OCCURRENCE IN THESE OTHER REGIONS OF STRONG SEISMIC GROUND MOTIONS SIMILAR TO THOSE EXPERIENCED NEAR CHARLESTON lit 1886. ALTHCVGH THE PROBABILITY OF STRONG GROUND MOTION DUE TO AN EARTHOUAKE IN ANY GIVEN YEAR AT A PARTICULAR LOCATION IN THE EASTERN SEAB0ARD MAY BE VERY LOW, DETERMINISTIC AND PROBABILISTIC EVALUATIONS OF THE SEISMIC HAZARD SHOULD BE MADE FOR INDIVIDUAL SITES IN THE EASTERN SEAB0ARD TO ESTABLISH THE SEISMIC ENGINEERING PARAMETERS FOR CRITICAL FACILITIES."

. NOVEMBER 19, 1982- A MEMORANDUM WAS SENT FROM THE ED0 TO COMMISSIONERS PROVIDING THEM WITH THE USGS LETTER AND INDICATED:

. THECLARIFICATIONIS$QIINTENDEDTO RECOMMEND THAT A CHARLESTON-TYPE BE AUTOMATICALLY CONSIDERED IN THE SEISMIC DESIGN OF ALL. NUCLEAR PLANTS IN THE EASTERN SEAB0ARD.

. THAT AN EARlh0VAKE OF THIS SIZE (MM X)

SHOULD 501 BE CATEGORICALLY RULED OUT-'

AT LOCATIONS AWAY FROM CHARLESTON BASED SOLELY ON THE USGS'S PREVIOUS LETTERS

. THAT SUCH A CONCLUSION SHOULD BE REACHED ONLY AFTER DETERMINISTIC AND PROBABILISTIC

. STUDIES FOR SITES HAVE BEEN MADE

a

\

. NOVEMBER 19, 1982 - MEETING WITH THE COMMISSIONERS IN WHICH WE:

. INDICATED THAT WE BELIEVED THAT THE USGS CLARIFICATION REPRESENTS NOT S0 MUCH A NEW UNDERSTANDING BUT A MORE EXPLICIT RECOGNITION OF EXISTING UNCERTAINTIES REGARDING THE CAUSATIVE STRUCTURE AND MECHANISM OF THE 1886 CHARLESTON EARTHOUAKE.

. INDICATED THAT WE DID NOT SEE A NEED FOR ANY IMMEDIATE ACTION AT SEECIFIC SITES

. PROVIDED AN OUTLINE PLAN WHICH PROVIDED FOR BOTH PROBABILISTIC AND DETERMINISTIC STUDIES UNDER EXISTING ONG0ING NRC PROGRAMS He e p S 94

RELATIONSHIP TO PROBABILITY STUDY EXAMPLES: IF LARGE EARTHOUAKES ARE CAUSED BY:

A. DECOLLEMENT (LARGE EARTHOUAKES NOT RESTRICTED)

, CHARLESTON EARTHOUAKE CAN OCCUR ANYWHERE IN EASTERN SEAB0ARD

, DETERMINISTIC ASSESSMENT IS RELATIVELY LESS IWCRTANT

B. HIGH ANGLE FAULTS (LARGE EARTHOUAKES RESTRICTED TO CERTAIN STRUCTURES)

. LARGE EARTHOUAKES WOULD BE ASSUMED WHEREVER SUCH STRUCTURES OF 'SIGNIFICANT SIZES ARE~ LOCATED "~-

, DETERMINISTIC ASSESSENT IS Iff0RTANT

, THIS WOULD ALSO BE TRUE OF MAFIC INTRUSIVES,

t. INTERSECTING FAULTS, ETC, C. CHARLESTON TECTONICS SE UNIQUE (LARGE EARTHQUAKES WOULD BE RESTRICTED TO THE CHARLESTON AREA) i
