SUMMARY
OF MEETING BETWEEN BALTIMORE GAS AND ELECTRIC (BGE) AND THE NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION (NRC) TO DISCUSS INFORMATION PROVIDED BY BGE FOR THE SEVERE ACCIDENT MITIGATION ALTERNATIVE (SAMA) REVIEW AND SITE AUDIT The NRC staff met with representatives of BGE on January 7,1999, to discuss information provided by BGE in response to the staff request for additional information (RAI) regarding SAMAs. The staff issued the RAI by letter dated September 9,1998, and BGE provided its responses by letter dated December 3,1998. Upon review of the BGE responses, the staff identified areas that needed further clarification or discussion. The staff provided a list of issues to BGE in a teleconference on December 17,1998, in preparation for this meeting. The meeting was intended to be a working level meeting between the NRC reviewers and the BGE staff responsible for the SAMA analysis to further discuss specific issues. Attachment 1 is a list of attendees. Attachment 2 is a' copy of the handouts discussed at the meeting. An advance copy of handouts was sent directly to the Public Document Room or, January 11,1999.
The SAMA review is performed as part of the environmental review performed under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and the requirements of 10 CFR Part 51. The SAMA methodology identifies the accident sequences that contribute to overall plant risk, identifies mitigative altematives to reduce the frequency of that risk, and evaluates the alternatives using a cost benefit analysis.
The following issues were discussed at the meeting: the use of pre-initiator actions; the relationship between Tables 7 and 8 in the RAI response; the use of saved sequences; cost estimates for a number of SAMAs; the possible implementation of SAMA number 66b; Figure 1 in the pal response and whether it addresses core damage frequency (CDF) or containment release or both; how BGE derived the top 10 SAMA list; revised population projections; the
- relationship between change in CDF and the averted offsite dose estimates; the BGE best '
estimate rationale and methodology, including the use of adjustment factors, correction factors, (
and the Unit 1 and 2 differences; the BGE SAMA identification process; the evacuation D

Conservatism of " Saved Sequences" Method ER Page 4-29, "...this approach requires several conservative analysis techniques to achieve bounding results."
- For SAMAs, saved sequences is very accurate, as truncation issue does not play a significant role.
- But, dependency changes are more difficult to evaluate.
- Conservatively evaluated by setting all systems which i formally supported the broken dependency to success. l Example: Battery Reliability
- Improve bus failure probability only - A CDF =2.56E-06 (10.2%)
- Make battery capacity so large that EDG battery support not l req'd.

- BWRs blowdown RCS on an ATWS to create a void (negative reactivity)
- SAMA would relieve pressure from primary to secondary containment
- N/A for PWRs , c. benefit = $0 Approach #2 - Install primary syst. vents to remove normal or ATWS decay heat
- Assumes 50% of decay heat removal scenarios are eliminated with almost all ATWS scenarios eliminated
- The maximum calculated benefit = $5,430,000
- Large vents would allow rapid RCS inventory release and decay heat removal
- Cost of additional, independent RCS vent valves large enough to allow rapid RCS inventory release would exceed cost of replacing PORVs (SAMA #77)

- Maximum Benefit = S2,375,000 ,

- Benefit modeled by setting AFW human actions to success.
- Local manual control of AFW is addressed in:
- EOP-3: Loss of All Feedwater
- EOP 7: Station Blackout
- AOP-7D: Loss of Instrument Air
- Changes to these procedures to focus specifically on AFW ops would take operator attention away from other safety functions. ,
l l
- Max benefit would be offset by increased risk of other functions.
- Therefore, best estimate benefit would be negligible. I 99-003 Slide ## .

Best Estimate Rationale and Methodoloav
+ Uncertainties vs. "Best Estimates"
-analysis approach defines approximate level of risk, rather than being a detailed risk assessment.
-adopts typical accident analysis practice of addressing uncertainty through use of analytical margin (i.e., conservatism), rather than through a formal uncertainty analysis.
-providing substantial margin in every parameter would yield a final result so conservative that it would be totally useless.

Life Cycle Management Project SAMA identification Approach Identified generic industry-identified SAMAs from previous analyses.
Customized generic industry-idenPfied SAMAs. -
- As discussed on page 4-27 of the Environmental Report, when possible, each of the generic industry-identified SAMAs was customized to become a site-specific SAMA.
Identified Site-Specific SAMAs.
- Eleven additional site-specific SAMAs were identified based on experience with Calvert Cliff's internal events PRA, with consideration given to:
- significant plant issues which contributed to large numbers of sequences, such as loss of decay heat removal scenarios; and
- issues which indicated a higher likelihood of being risk-beneficial, such as changing certain ESFAS/AFAS/RPS logic to 3-of-4.
