3 MR. BROOKMAN: Good afternoon. Everybody, 4 welcome. My name is Doug Brookman. I'll be facilitating l
5 this session. 1 l
6 This session will commence this afternoon with 7 a discussion and presentation based on DSI number 22, j 8 research. So with no further ado, let me turn it over. l
- J 9 MR. SPEIS
- Okay. Thank you. As the slide 1
i 10 indicates, my name is Themis Speis. I'm from the office 11 of research and I would like to give credit to Charles 12 Ader who helped me in the writing of this DSI paper. j 13 This DSI deals with the Commission's research !
14 program. It reads: What should be.the future role and 15 scope of NRC's research program? I think it would be 16 appropriate, before we discuss some of the external 17 factors and some of the options of the Commission's 18 preliminary views, to provide some prospective and give 19 you a short historical context for the Commission's 20- research program.
21 The concept of research to provide NRC with an 22 independent technical capability was included by Congress 23 in the Energy Reorganization Act of 1974, to insure that 24 the Commission would have -- and I would like to quote now 25 -- an independent capability for developing and analyzing NEAL R.

1 technical information related to reactor safety, safe 2 guards and environmental protection in support of the 3 licensing and regulatory process.
4 The question is what does NRC do with this so 5 called research information, . independent research 6 l information? Well, in summary, it is used to develop new i l
7 and/or improved existing regulations, to better determine 8 and refine safety margins, quite often to anticipate a 9 wide range of problems and issues, and in general, to 10 develop the necessary tools, technical tools to deal with 11 issues as they arise.
12 It's important to note here that the scope and 13 emphasis of.the research program has changed substantially 14 over the years, and of course, that depended on the issues 15 of concern at the time. During the 70's and early 80's, I
16 the primary focus of the research program was on so called 1 I
17 postulated design basis accidents. I'm referring now to ]
18 loss of. cooling accidents.
19 This was very important because they played a 20 very central role in the licensing of reactors at that 21 time. The focus of the research program was to insure 22 that the criteria for cooling the reactor had a good 23 technical basis.
24 After the TMI accident and especially after l 25 the Chernobol accident, the main focus shifted from design NEAL R. GROSS COURT REPORTERS AND TRANSCRIBERS i 1323 RHODE ISLAND AVE., N.W. '

. .5 L* 1 basis accidents to severe accidents, as well as the aging l
l 2 of plant components. Again, the 90's there was a change ;
3 in emphasis again. This time to advance reactors. This 4 is a group of reactors that were brought in front of the 5 Nuclear Regulatory Commission for our rev.4aw and approval.
l l 6 Frank Miraglia has a DSI paper on this and tomorrow he 7 will talk more about it.
8 Also in the 90's there was an increased i
! 9 emphasis on aging related research and the background for 10 that was operating experience and of course, the industry l l
1
( 11 had a proposal in front of us for license renewal. There l
12 was a possibility -- it's still going on -- that some of 13 the existing reactors might continue to operate after 14 theit 40 years of original license.
15 At the present time, even though there are no 16 new applicants in sight, and many, many of the important I 17 issues of the past have been addressed satisfactorily, 18 there are still factors which I'll summarize shortly, 19 whose importance and impact on the scope of the 20 Commission's research program and the role it should 21 continue to play in the agency's mission need to be
)
22 addressed very carefully.
I l 23 Most of the new issues in front of the I
i 24 Commission, the technical issues, of course, as I've said i l 25 already, relate to the aging of nuclear power plants.

5' 1 Another important issue is ?.he budgets are declining.
f
- 2 Back in the 70's when the Commission was pursuing its work
! 3 in understanding the issues related to loss of cooling l
4 accidents, they were opending something like $250 million.
5 At the present time the resource budget is about $50 6 million', but that includes rule making, resolutional 7 generic issues, so the clean budget that is really 8 dedicated to research is more or less somewhere around 40, 9 $45 million.
10 So you can see that in terms of a declining 11 research budget, you have a factor of eight, less funding 12 dedicated to research now than in the 70's. Of course, 13 that does not include inflation.
14 The industry used to do quite a bit of 15 research. They are still doing some, but not as much as 16 before. They also have difficulties with budgets, like we 17 do. of course, some of the work that they do is focused 18 mostly on commercial considerations. There'are some areas 19 where we and they are cooperating, which involve safety t
20 related issues.
21 The other factor which is important is in the 22 past we have been able to get quite a bit of information 23 from outside'the United States, through international i
24 agreements, cooperative agreements, but that assumed that 25 we had a vigorous research program ourselves. So the idea NEAL R. GROSS COURT REPORTERS AND TRANSCRIBERS .

7 1- was guid pro quo, the exchange of information. But 2- because of our declining budgets and theref ore, our 3 declining research activities, then it will be more 4 difficult in the future to focus on leveraging. So this 5 quid pro quo will have to thought out very carefully and 6 focus at least on some specific areas that will be of most 7 interest to us.
8 So when we take all these things into 9 consideration then you can see-why this DSI issue, which 10 is what should be the future and scope of NRC's research 11 program. So let me say a few more things about some of 12 the factors now, and I guess I have enumerated some of 13' them already.
14 The first one, the nuclear industry, the aging 15 of plants and the introduction of new technologies is an 16 important consideration in pursuing additional research.
17 The introduction of new technologies, I'm referring to 18 instrumentation and control systems that use digital 19 approaches; The potential for annealing the reactor 20 vessels to recover their initial properties. So all these 21 things will raise new issues.
22 Also there-is the issue of going to higher 23 burn ups that could necessitate taking a good look at the 24 properties of clotting as a result of this additional 25 irradiation to insure that the failure criteria that were NEAL R. GROSS COURT REPORTERS AND TRANSCRIBERS 1323 RHODE ISLAND AVE., N.W.

8' 1 developed a long time ago are still valid and if not, then i
! 2 how we should go about changing them. This is fuel
~
3 failure criteria as a result of transients and accidents.
4 'Ihe Department of Energy, including the 5 national laboratories, the reason that it is listed as an 6 external factor is because of the budget reduction. We at I
7 NRC have depended substantially in the past on the a capabilities of the existing national laboratories. Of 9 course, I'm referring to technical capabilities, including 10 facilities. And because of the budget reductions, those 11 expertise will be limited in the future. The other thing.
12 that concerns-us is that with '.he declining support-from 13 the Department of Energy,'some facilities that were used 14 by both DOE and ourselves might not be available because .
1 1
15 the overhead cost might be such that we would not be able 16 to bear the cost by ourselves alone.
17 Likewise the universities have been an 18 important source of expertise. Again, like the issue s l 19 above it, as R & D dollars go down, this expertise will 20 also no longer be available.
21 International programs, I said a few things 22 already. Considerable research is being conducted 23 internationally, and again, because of our own research, l
l 24 we have been able to enter into agreements, in a guid pro l
l' 25 quo way and also be able to leverage our research l

1 substantially.
2 Congress and the public, will of course 3 continue to examine how NRC addresses all questions that j 4 come up, both from operational experience, both in this 5 country as well as internationally.
6 The internal factors have to do mainly with l 7 the declining resources. As the NRC budget is reduced, 8 its ability to timely respond to safety-issues also is 9 affected. Also this has an effect on the availability of j 10 experimental facilities and the ability to maintain 11 technical expertise. We are basically a technical agency 12 so it is important that in order to be technically ]
I 13 credible we must maintain a high level of technical l 14 expertise in some key areas.
15 So with these factors in mind then we go into j 16 the next slide, which describes the options that are 17 summarized here. You can see here that we have a wide 1
18 ranging number of options, including an option to 19 discontinue the research program itself.
1 20 This will necessitate a legislative law 21 because, as.I said earlier, the research program itself 22 was established through Congressional actions with the 23 Energy Reorganization Act of 1974.
24 I want to talk about the next two options. To 25 conduct only confirmatory research or conduct only NEAL R. GROSS COURT REPORTERS AND TRANSCRIBERS 1323 RHODE ISLAND AVE., N.W.
(202) 234-4433 WASHINGTON, D.C. 2000 #3701 (202) 234-4433 m
2
. 1b, 1 exploratory research. And it's appropriate to say a few 2 things about that. The program itself, the structure at 3 the present time, it's approximately 80 percent 4 confirmatory and 80 percent exploratory.
5 What I mean by confirmatory, it's a program 6 that is of a short duration and it is designed to satisfy 7 a stated regulatory need, from the user offices and from 8 the nuclear regulatory organization and from the materials 9 organization. So the program, it is designed to satisfy a 10 well defined need, which have been defined by those 11 offices and by deliveri.ng to those offices a product on a 12 pre-determined schedule. For example, in the review of 13 advanced reactors, that product was a good analytical tool 14 to analyze to performance of the AP-600.
15 The rest of the program which is about 20 16 percent, which we call exploratory. It's exploratory in 17 the sense that it tries to work in areas where there could 18 be potential problems of an anticipatory nature. So it's 19 longer range. It could be four years, five years. For 20 example, we have worked in the -- area with some of the 21 experiments in putting analytical tools together for four, 22 five years or even longer sometimes.
23 So one of the options then is to conduct only 24 confirmatory research. The other one is conduct only 25 exploratory research. The third option is to conduct goth NEAL R. GROSS COURT REPORTERS AND TRANSCRIBERS 1323 RHODE ISLAND AVE., N.W.

. 1).
1 confirmatory and exploratory research. Basically this is
- 2 the approach we are following at the present time.
- 3 I should have said before, these options are 4 not mutually exclusive. In some cases they are 5 complimentary to each other.
- 6 The next option is to establish and maintain ,
7 core research capabilities. As I said earlier, NRC is a
! 8 technical agency and needs technical expertise to insure l
9 that its product are robust enough and can stand the
- 10 scrutiny of the technical community, of the public, of the t, '
11 audit committees that review our work. So in a number of 12 areas, the issues on our plate are kind of coming to an
- 13 end.
i
[ 14 And the question is, should we stop doing l l
1 15- technical work or research in those areas, for example, in !
16 the thermo-hydraulics area? We had a very big program in l 17 the 70's and early 80's and when the issues to relating to 18 loss of cooling accidents were resolved, we kind of
\
l
! 19 reduced that program substantially. And then when the new l 1
2 1
- ' 20 reactor designs came to NRC for our review, and because i'
21 there were many issues dealing with the thermo-hydraulic 22 technical problems,'then we had to kind of rebuild this ,
23 area.
1 24 So the question arises, what are the core l 25 research capabilities that the Commission has to maintain i
NEAL R. GROSS COURT REPORTERS AND TRANSCRIBERS 1323 RHODE ISLAND AVE., N.W.
(202) 234-4433 WASHINGTON, D.C. 20005-3701 (202) 234-4433
. 12 ' !
1 to insure that either the ongoing isrw.es or :: elated issues 2 arise,- that technical expertise and c:apabihty exists in l 3 place.to address those issues. We won't have to go 4 hurrying around trying to rebuild because in some cases l 1 5 it's not.that easy. l 6 So option five then calls for establishing and
- 7 maintaining core research capabilities by developing l
8 criteria that one can use to see what are the right- ,
9 disciplines that the Commission has to maintain and what 10 will be the scope under those disciplines.
11 The next option deals with university based 12 resources as a component of the overall NRC research.
13 Again, universities have been providing a good bit of 14 expertise and information to us. There's a program in <
15- place at the present time where one percent of the 16 research budget goes for university grants. Of course, 17 that's not much, but it's still a substantial amount. So 18 universities, at least in the past, have not been very 19 expensive, even though that is beginning not to be the 20 case anymore. So the question is whether we should 21 continue this program. So the option that the committee 22 presented to the Commission was that it was an option to l
23 use the university resources as a component of the overall l
l 24 NRC research program.
I 25- The last option was to actively participate in NEAL R. GROSS COURT REPORTERS AND TRANSCRIBERS 1323 RHODE ISLAND AVE., N.W.

, 13 j 1 international safety programs. They have been, for the 2 last-ten years or even longer, with extensive agreements i
1 r
- j. 3- and interactions with international organizations and 4 regulatory organizations, research institutes, we have 5 been getting a substantial amount of resources by l I 6 facilities.
4 ,
i, 7 We share in the information. We come together I
8 and design experiments and run them in some of those 9 facilities internationally. So these exchanges have been
) 10 extremely cost effective and the question is are we going i
! 11- to be able to continue, especially since in the past, as I 12 said earlier, we have been using this quid pro quo way, 13 where we give them the results of.our research and we 14 share in theirs. So since our research programs are j l
15 coming down, then there's still a question of how much we 16 can be able to participate in the programs to the extent 17 we were doing it in the past.
18 So these were the options. And so the next 19 slide shows the Commission's preliminary views. The 20 Commission came down on option four, which includes 21 elements of both confirmatory and exploratory research, 22 balanced in such a way that both current as well as 23 potentially emerging issues are being addressed.
24 Also the Commission came strongly with the 25 idea of having the office of research in conjunction with NEAL R. GROSS COURT REPORTERS AND TRANSCRIBERS 1323 RHODE ISLAND AVE., N.W.

1 the other offices developing a core research program which
, 2 will insure that there is technical expertise and 1
3 capability available to address both present and ongoing 4 issues. And the Commission wanted us to develop this 5 criteria and take those criteria back to them around j 6 January and once those criteria are approved and then l
7 we'll go and develop this core research capabilities.
8 The paper itself has examples of this criteria 9 that can be used to develop core research capabilities, 10 not only for broad program categories, but for the' scope l
l 11 of some of the program itself. So we will appreciate if 12 some of you stakeholders provide us your thoughts and your I
L 13 wisdom, as what are the appropriate criteria that one
! 14 should use in developing and sustaining this core research i
15 capabilities.
16 Also the Commission thinks that we should 17 continue to support the educational grant program, but 18 they want us to re-evaluate this program at least every 19 two years.
20 And finally, they support our-participation in 21 international safety programs, but they want us to 22 privatize them and hppropriately integrate them with our 23 own research efforts and also consider them in the 24 establishment and maintenance of core research 25 capabilities, which I discussed already.

18 MR. BROOKMAN: Thank you very much. Nice 19 presentation. So we have not only a good discussion of 20 background and some of the major trends that have 21 occurred, but also the-options relate to both the role and the scope of'the effort.
22 And as you look at these options 23 here on the view graph, at the top, four relate to the 24 role and the last three relate to the scope.
25 Maybe we could start by talking about the NEAL R. GROSS COURT REPORTERS AND TRANSCRIBERS 1323 RHODE ISLAND AVE., N.W.

!~ 4 Comments, questions about the presentation and 5 about the Commission's preliminary view. I get to play 6 Donahue here I think. Questions, comments?
7 Themis, did you say that even though in light 8 of budget reductions across the board, throughout the 9 entire federal government and here at NRC, that option 10 four, to conduct both confirmatory and exploratory 11 research, that is essentially maintaining what you're 12 doing now?
13 MR. SPEIS: No, maintaining the role of the ,
14 program itself, to address both potentially emerging 15 issues and also to address issues that are in front of us, 16 to confirm licensee proposals.
17 MR. BROOKMAN: But you did say the scale is )
l 18 down? l l
19' MR. SPEIS: But the scale is essentially down, l 20 right.
21 MR. BROOKMAN: You said that 80 percent of 22 your budget.goes to confirmatory research, that is, 23 applied research and 20 percent goes toward exploratory or 24 more basic research.

1 meeting in Cc3orado. The issues are the same except it's j l
2 longer range and it's more of an anticipatory nature, but l
3 it's still applied research. It's not really basic I 4 research. For example, what is the effect of something 5 like an element, phosphorous or nickel on the rate of l 6 pressure vessels, and this is something you cannot do 7 overnight. So it's something that there are many, many l
8 factors that you have to consider. You have to do 9 experiments. There are theoretical considerations. It's 1 10 kind of a longer range program. So something like that is ]
I 11 part of the so called exploratory research, and maybe in l
12 retrospect that's not the right word. We'd have to change ;
13 the word itself. '
14 MR. BROOKMAN: I'm wondering if anybody has 15 comments on the Commission's preliminary perspective, to l
16 conduct both confirmatory and exploratory research and 17 also the distribution, the 80/20 here?
18 MR. SPEIS: Excuse me. The 80/20 is the 19 present, approximately. In fact, we have asked the 20 Commission to provide the flexibility to change that.
21 MR. BRC'? MAN: Okay.
22 MR. SPEIS: So it's not something that the 23 Commission has set, but it's approximate.

. l'8 1 Commonwealth Edison. If I could have the previous slide
- 2 back. The real issue is not whether it's confirmatory or.
3 exploratory or.20/80, it's really what and what's being 4 done; does that really need to be-done;'are there other 5 ways of getting the same information to the same quality.
6 There's a considerable amount of work that's done by the 7 indus'try and universities and other places. The real 8 question you have to ask yourself is what is the value i
9 added and what is the necessity of, quote, unquote, 10 " confirming" what's already been done or doing something 11
~
on your own, something that can be done somewhere'else.-
12 We're all, all around the country, struggling with trying 13 to get the most bang out of our buck. I'm sure that's 14 true of, just as you_were pointing out, with declining 15 budgets. We all have to worry about that.
16 So while one cannot say one shouldn't do 17 confirmatory research or one shouldn't do exploratory 18 research, it all needs to be done. We just have to be
~
19 very sure of what it is that we're spending our money on.
20 MR. BROOKMAN: Can you comment further on the 21 what at this point? For example, in this discussion 22 paper, they list on page 22 a variety of criteria. Do you 23 think those criteria provide guidance to the what?
24 MR. KAUSHAL: In general the criteria are 25 reasonable but I think the real issue here is can we make NEAL R. GROSS COURT REPORTERS AND TRANSCRIBERS 1323 RHODE ISLAND AVE., N.W.

, 1,9 1 use of other sources as opposed to spending separate and 2 additional dollars of Commission research. That's really 3 the issue. j 4 MR. BROOKMAN: Are you familiar with the 5 international programs and the collaboration that goes on 6 with others? .
i 7 MR. KAUSHAL: Yes, I am. And I fully support 8 collaborative efforts internationally, and participation 9 and collaboration in international programs. I think 10 that's a good way to do it. Again, it's a question of how 11 much and what we get out of it.
12 MR. BROOKMAN: I'm wondering if you could 13 respond to Themis' point about the fact that the United 14 States' budget is declining in this area, and it affects 15 our ability to obtain as much research, kind of quid pro 16 quo, from the other countries, is that a trend that you 17 see as well?
18 MR. KAUSHAL: Again, it's really an issue of, 19 you know, clearly everybody would like to do more. Are we 20 getting basically what we are looking for and if we are 21 not, then we have to do more.
22 MR. SPEIS: I appreciate your comment. We're 23 constantly searching for what is the best way to spend our 24 money, and as you said earlier, what is the added value.
25 I already said that compared to the 70's, we're spending NEAL R. GROSS COURT REPORTERS AND TRANSCRIBERS 1323 RHODE ISLAND AVE., N.W.

4 to have the research that is needed to substantiate or t
i j 5 provide the basis for any of your proposals or things that 6 you're dealing with.

We have looked very.,hard to see whether.there 14 is duplication. Somebody. raised that question even in 1
15 Washington, and the research done for the utilities by 16 EPRI, in some of the areas that industry is doing work 17 it's mostly addressing issues of steady state operation, i
18, commercial type of considerations. For example, there is 19- a substantial program in the fuels area. But of that 20 program addresses issues dealing with steady state of 21 operation and they don't explore what if type of
'22 questions, you know, what if there is a transient that 23 would lead to fuel failure, you know, do you still have 24 the same threshold of failure that you had when the 25 irradiation of the fuel was less than it is now.

8 there will be no questions or second guessing by anyone.
9 MR. BROOKMAN: Those are good specifics. I'm 10 wondering, though, if what you're speaking to and what 11 this gentleman just spoke to was the core research I 12 capabilities. So I'm wondering if there are any other l
.13 additional core research capabilities that should be I 14 served that aren't being served or if, goins back to the )
l 15 criteria listed on page 23 of this paper, whether you 16 think what's listed here is responsive to the need.
17 MR. SPEIS: The problem itself has issues that )
18 address issues relating to thermo-hydraulics, severe 19 accidents, materials. Probably a substantial portion of l l
20 our research program goes into the materials area. And l 21 that has provided information to put together the 22 annealing rule that' the industry petitioned for and we 23 were able, based on information that we had developed over 24 the five to ten years, to put together this rule. We have 25 the problem of degrading steam generator tubes and the NEAL R. GROSS COURT REPORTERS AND TRANSCRIBERS 1323 RHODE ISLAND AVE., N.W.

I substantial part of the research has gone into that and is 2 still going into that area. So again, severe accidents, 3 thermo-hydraulics. PRA, we're working in developing 4 methods and evaluating the technologies so we have a 5 robust basis for making the transition in the risk 6 informed performance based regulation. So these are the I l
7 few arees that we're still putting our money into. i 8 MR. BROOKMAN: We've been touching on both the 9 role and the scope as listed on the options page. I'm l l
10 wondering if there are any additional comments on either i l
11 of those. I 12 Yes, sir.
13 MR. SWANK: Dave Swank, Supply System. I do 14 agree with the Commission's recommendation as far as the 1
l 15 options. I think as this gentleman pointed out, the 16 question sometimes is scope. Now, you talked about the 17 international activities and our ability to continue to ,
l l
18 participate as our research goes down. Are you seeing the l
19 same things internationally, as far as research reduction? i 20 MR. SPEIS: Yes, it's beginning to come down 21 internationally. In fact, that pushes them and us into )
22 much closer cooperation, looking for the most risk 23 important programs, because you know, I guess a while 24 back, both in this country and overseaa, people were 25 exploring things that maybe sometimes were not the most NEAL R.

l 4 MR. SPEIS: Not as much as we, but they are i 5 beginning to feel it.
6 MR. SWANK: We're all feeling the pain a ,

7 little bit anyway. How about the question as far as '
8 percentage of budget, let's say, of the Japanese, the 9 Germans, the western Europeans? We seem to be in about 10 the ten percent range for research. Do you think that's 11 consistent with some of our foreign counterparts?
12 MR. SPEIS: I know that the French and the 13 Germans and the Japanese are spending substantially more, 14 but in some areas they are repeating some of the things we 15 did because they want to develop their own infrastructure, 16 their own capability.
17 For example, we're spending only a few hundred l l
18 thousand dollars on something called the source term, you 19 know, what is the amount and the chemistry of the 20 radioactivity that is released when you have an accident.
21 The French are spending 70 to $80 million. They have a 22 huge facility. We feel that we have done that work, but 23 they want to do it themselves. We are participating in i 24 that program to make sure that there will be no surprises

1 MR. SWANK: I guess I will say that I think
- 2 the direction that you're taking for the most part is 3 correct; that is, an aging related research. Certainly 4 from the industry's point of view, that's where we see the 5 greatest risk. That's where our greatest concerns are, 6 certainly in the BWR world, with the internals problem, 7 with the vessel concerns and the PWR world and the BWR 8 world and so on. So it seems to me, at least from our 9 perspective, that your focus seems to be in the right j 10 direction. The only concern I would say.that we see is 11 the potential that-there may be some. redundancy in the 12 work that you're doing and the work that you're doing, 13 recognizing that you have to maintain your independence, 14 and certainly I appreciate the fact that you have to 15 maintain your technical competence, to be able to review 16 the work that we do.
17 There's nothing more frustrating from the 18 industry's point of view than to get into a discussion --
19 and I'm sure from your point of view, too -- you get into 20 a discussion with us, where your technical expertise or 21~ our technical expertise, as the case may be on a given 22 issue at a given point in time, is substantially higher 23 than the other side's, so we both need to continue working 24 on that, and we support that.

But let me ask you before you hand off that 4 mike, if.you, from your perspective, see gaps, see 5 additional needs that, even in a budget redaced world, 6 that the NRC should be trying to focus cn.
7 MR. SWANK: I guess off the top, I can't think 8 of anything where I see us lacking. I recognize some of 9 the work that's going on in what I'll call the EQ related 10 areas, particularly with cables and that kind of thing. I 11 know you are devoting monies and research efforts in that 12 area. That's not an area where you cee that in the 13 reactor world. As far as day to day operation, we don't 14 see cable degradation, particularly when you get to the 15 Tripoli 323 cable. You don't go out into your plant and 16 see degradation. It's just not there, so the only way 17 you're going to see it is through research.
18 But we look at what's going on in the license 19 renewal area, and quite honestly there's a lot of money 20 and a lot of activity, but as you pointed out in one of 21 the papers, nobody's come in for license renewal and there 22 are some plants I think that are certainly seriously 23 considering, Baltimore Gas & Electric, for instance, but I 24 think for most of us, the younger plants and even now a 25 lot of the older plants, some of the original pilot plants i I

6 MR. BROOKMAN: Thank you for those comments.
7 MR. SPEIS: We appreciate your comments. I i 8 would like to add also that many times our research is to 9 see whether there is a real problem, for example, in the 10 cable area that you mentioned. There were some 11 indications from operational occurrences and from.our 12 early preliminary programs that there could be an issue 13 thele, so we're exploring to see is there really an issue j l
14 before we decide how to address this issue. If, in some 15 cases, we see there is a real issue, quite often we ask 16 the industry to solve the problem because it's their 17 responsibility. So some of our work is to understand and 18 to define the issues and parameters of importance, not 19 necessarily solve the problem itself.
20 MR. CRAIG: This is John Craig. I'd like to 21 make a comment about the international activities. In the 22 past we've been able to be the beneficiaries of 23 significant leveraging, where for a small amount of U.S.
24 money foreign countries would donate much more money to a 25 given project. As their budgets have begun to shrink it's NEAL R. GROSS 1 COURT REPORTERS AND TRANSCRIBERS l 1323 RHODE ISLAND AVE., N.W. !

8 Commission, as they try to maintain their core research 9 capabilities. As listed in the issue paper today it says, 1 10 examples of the criteria that could be used to establish 1
11 the essential core capabilities are as follows. One, is
[ 12 the technical area one of high risk and large uncertainty; j 13 does it involve emerging issues of new technology; is the 14 expertise or facility unique, that is, if the NRC does not 15 maintain the expertise or facility, is it available in 16 other industries, private organizations or universities;
- 17 if not unique, can the NRC gain access to the outside 18 expertise or facility in a timely manner; can the NRC gain i
, 19 access to independent expertise; and number five, how L
- 20 frequently would the expertise or facility be used.
21 Oh, excuse me. There are more. There are 22 nine. Six is what is the impact of NRC's mission 23 capability if the specific expertise or facility 24 associated with it is not available. Seven, would the 25 cost of outside expertise or facilities be prohibitive; NEAL R. GROSS COURT REPORTERS AND TRANSCRIBERS 1323 RHODE ISLAND AVE., N.W.

7 Themis, you rolled all of these into your 8 comments. What about those criteria, do you think they're 9 good guidance? Do you think there are others that should j 10 be included? It's a pretty good listing number-wise. Is

j 16 Do we have additional comments? We've talked 17 about the role, and the only comments that we've heard so i 18 far seem to confirm the Commission's preliminary view on 19 its role. And also I think it confirmed the scope as 20 advanced in the preliminary way by the Commission.
