GRAND GULF SUBCOn!ITTEE MEETINO, JANUARY 17-18, 1974, SAN JOSE,. CALIFORNIA l

Listed below are specific aspects of the topics to be considered at the Grand Gulf Subcommittee mee:ing, January 17 and 18. Other aspects or topics may be brought up by the Subcommittee or its consultants.

1. Seismic design bases
a. Descripti:n of the safe shutdown earthquakes ~

b .' Extent of :he New Madrid earthquake zone

2. Hydrogen genera: ton and control
a. Bases for hydrogen evolution rate (Regulatory Staf f)
b. Possible mechanisms which could lead to hydrogen generation beyond that calculated by the applicant for a double-ended pipe break ,

(Regulatory Staff and applicant)

c. Rel.iability of the system proposed for coping with hydrogen (Regu-latory Staf f)
d. Automatic or manual activation of hydrogen control system (Regula-tory Staff and applicant)
e. Capability cf drywell, etc., to withstand various hydrogen burning

. events (Regulatory Staff)

3. Uncertainties in power and power distribution (nuclear uncertainty factor) ,

4 Loss of coolant accident and ECCS performance

a. Evalua: ion of LPCI capability (without any consideration for core spray) (Regulatory Staff)
b. Means to ascertain potential blockage .of core spray nozzles over the reac:or's lifetime (Regulatory Staff and applicant)
c. Degree to which blockage of core spray nozzles is tolerable (applicant and Regulatory Staff)
d. Blowd:vn forces resulting from a LOCA -- any unknowns (Regulatory S ta f f)
e. Independent confirmation of the analyses by the Regulatory Staf f
f. Possible future improvements in ECCS (include flow rate comparisons of the several systems for BWR/4, 5 & 6, and reliability considera-tions (Regulatory Staf f and applicant)
5. Turbinc =issiles (turbine orientation end possible missile trajectories)

7. Pressure Suppression System
a. Forces on s true tures above the pool (Regulatory S taf f)
b. Extent to which e::perinental corroboration. is required' (1) ?rior to issuance of a construe:Lon permit (Regulatory Staf f)

(2) 7:10: to some later milestone (Regulatory Staf f)

c. Possible dyne =ic ef fects in the suppression pool resulting from relief cs'.ee discharge (Regulatory Staf f and applicant)
d. Role cf nrn-condensables and other phenomena in relief valve discharge to the suppression pool (Regulatory Staf f and applicant)
e. Possible dynamic leads on containment or drywell wall, .etc., from relief ;cl re operation (Regulatory S taf f and applicant)
f. Detailed description of the dynamic phenomenona important to the action of the suppression system in a 14CA (Regulatory Staff and applicant)

h. Effec'ts of solid walls on the results of tests perforced in the seg=ent of a full-scale experimental facility (Regulat.ory Staf f and applicant)
i. Possibility of pool oscillations permitting an intermittent bypass path for steam from the drywell escaping into the containment. Are the experi.=ents adequate to study this phenomena or circumferential wave effects? (Regulatory Staff and applicant)
j. Role of non-condensables in the Moss Landing and Quad Cities test results
k. Drywell bypassing considerations. *
