Dr. Okrent brought the meeting to order at 9:00 a.m. and reviewed the purpose of the meeting. He noted special attention should be focused on what the licensing basis agreement does and does not contain.

2.

Mr. Ebersole noted he wanted to hear arguments why an Ultimate Plant Protection System was not included in the ABWR, He noted a lack in addressing A-45, Decay Heat Removal. He also felt improvements were in order for the semiautomatic release system. More thought was also recomended on diverse water supplies for ECSS and molten core action on the containment floor, r

3.

Mr. D. Wilkins of General Electric presented an overview of the ABWR program. The objectives of the ABWR program are to improve the operability, capacity factor, safety, and overall performance of the BWR while reducing occupational exposure, reducing radioactive waste, and reducing all elements of plant cost.

4.

Mr. Wilkens explained the ABWR was begun using an international team of 25 engineers.

Between 1978 and 1979 the ABWR concept was created.

The design development and confirmatory testing has been primarily focused in Japan. GE, Hitachi, and Toshiba have led the technical effort with support from Tokyo Electric Power Co. and a consortium of Japanese utilities. At this point, testing of new fea-tures on the ABWR are essentially complete.

To date, on the order of

$250 million has been invested in this program; the ABWR is ready for lead plant application. Currently the first plants are expected to be built in Japan in the early 90's and will be in operation by the mid-90's.

5.

ABWR performance characteristics were reviewed. The electrical output is 1350 MWe. The plant is engineered for a construction schedule of 48 months. The capacity factor is expected to be 86%.

Refueling and Maintenance outages are expected to be 55 days per year. A core damage probability of less than 10 E-6/ year is estimated.

6.

The U.S. ABWR program has as its objective to obtain NRC Certifica-tion of an Advanced BWR for use by multiple utilities on multiple sites.

GE hopes to complete this effort by 1991. The approach GE hopes to take

Minutes /GE Metting 4

January 7, 1987 GI will include using the EPRI advanced LWR requirements document, providing a design consistent with these requirements, and obtaining DOE /NRC regulatory certification.

7.

A key element in the ABWR review will be a licensing basis agree-ment (LBA). The LBA will be an attempt to define the important require-ments that must be covered during the ABWR review. GE hopes to set the ground rules for the review using the LRA by the middle of 1987.

8.

Dr. C. Sawyer, GE, covered the ABWR design features and the status of research and development efforts. He noted the ABWR incorporates the best worldwide BWR features which include:

internal recirculation pumps, fine motion control rod drives, digital / solid state control, multiplexing, advanced fuel, improved containment and reactor building, and three ECCS divisions.

9.

The ABWR reactor vessel uses internal recirculation pumps. Ten internal pumps are bottom-mounted around the periphery of the vessel.

They are of a wet motor type.

Full core flow can be achieved with one 1

pump out of service. The vessel itself is supported by a conical skirt from the side.

It was explained that the use of internal recirculation pumps eliminates the external recirculation piping, thus eliminating a large source of occupational exposure and recent pipe-cracking diffi-culties. The ABWR design also eliminates large nozzles on the vessel below the core.

Minutes /GE Meeting 5

January 7, 1987 W

10.. The fine motion control rod drive system uses hydraulics for scram, and electric motors for normal plant activity rod motion. The electric system does back up the hydraulic system, should the hydraulic scram fail. The scram discharge volume has been eliminated. Water used to drive the rods into the core enters the reactor vessel itself. The electric drive can step in increments of 3/4 of an inch as opposed to the present six inches per step.
11. Advanced fuel will be used in the ABWR. The fuel uses a barrier design capable of high exposure. The fuel uses axially zoned enrichment and gadolinia to flatten the axial power shape without the use of rods.
12. The emergency core cooling system (ECCS) of the ABWR uses three di-visions with both a high and low pressure ECCS in each zone. Each division is separated both mechanically and electrically.
13. The ABWR employs a digital / solid state control system. The system is fault-tolerant and triple redundant. The system also uses self diagnostics. This new technology represents a cost saving. The control system uses multiplexing and has fiber-optic isolation capability.
14. The ABWR has an improved containment and reactor building. The containment is a lined reinforced cylindrical concrete building. The suppression pool is similar to that found in a Mark III containment with horizontal vents. The pool is covered and the containment inerted. The reactor building is integrated with the containment.

It is a smaller volume than a Mark III, but with improved seismic capability.

15. The ABWR test and development program has as its philosophy the concept that every feature of this design had to be either proven by operating experience or proven by a test program. There are on the order of twenty major test programs.
16. Mr. Villa, G.E., discussed the licensing basis agreement being requested by General Electric.

It was stated that the purpose of the LBA is to define those issues that must be addressed during the technical review of the ABWR. The LBA is intended to establish an acceptable process for the certification of the ABWR design. This is an effort to stabilize the licensing process.

It should also define a process for making future changes. GE also hopes the LBA will define the inner-relationship between the ABWR project and the EPRI Advanced Light Water Reactor Program. Mr. Villa expressed a desire to obtain the Committee's connents on the idea of a licensing basis agreement.

17. Mr. Villa discussed schedules for completing the LBA. Currently, GE would like to have the LBA approved in June of 1987 and begin the technical review of the ABWR in September 1987.
18. Ralph Caruso, Senior Staff Project Manager, presented highlights of the Staff ABWR licensing program.

He noted that the ABWR project involves new concepts in licensing including: a new standardized BWR design, the use of the licensing basis agreement, the design certifica-tion process, and the use of the EPRI light water reactors requirements document. Since a lead plant may first be built in Japan, coordination

on the review effort between U.S. and Japanese regulatory agencies is anticipated.

I

19. Mr. Caruso explained that topics to be included in the LBA will include technical issues, how the tool of probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) is used, the treatment of the severe accident policy statement, and the EPRI ALWR program.

In some cases, the details of these compo-nents (the use of PRA and the severe accident policy) are still evolv-ing. Other potential topics to be included in the LBA include:

the scheduling of review, review procedures, site specific issues, orga-nization, and design completeness and degree of detail.

The Staff is currently scheduling the completion of the final design approval review in 1990, and completing the certification process by 1991.

20. Mr. Caruso noted the LBA has no basis in the regulations and is not legally binding, it is a reasoned expression of intent by the Staff and the Applicant. The Staff does not consider the backfit regulation applicable to the ABWR review until after the final design approved has been issued.

New issues that arise during the review will be treated according to procedures outlined in the EPRI program and contained in Section 8.2 of the draft LBA. The LBA will be issued as a NUREG document.

21. A question and answer session was held on the design details of the G.E. Japanese ABWR,

Minut:s/GE Meeting 8

January 7, 1987 p

o GE commented on their position regarding the use of contain-ment filtered vents. Their philosophy is that fission prod-ucts caused by a accident should be held within the contain-ment. A deliberately engineered breach in containment is not favored.

The probability of a containment failure is felt to be low enough so that a procedure to bypass the containment is not needed.

It was also noted that the suppression pool does have filtering capabilities, o

GE did note that a containment penetration which can accomo-date a filtered vent has been left in the design. There will be no filtered vent in the Japanese ABWP..

22. General Electric explained that they are proposing ABWR as a nuclear island concept, not an entire balance of plant.

Interface requirements that account for the portion of the plant outside of the ABWR scope will be provided. The amount of design detail that will be provided will be consistent with t.he A.I.F.'s recommendations.

It was noted a scale model of the ABWR design exists in Japan. This model represents pipe sizes down to several inches in diameter.

23.

In response to questions from Dr. Okrent, GE explained the LBA is an attempt to resolve problems that are currently identified and to set up a procedure to deal with issues that have yet to be discovered.

In areas where the licensing basis agreement is silent, it reflects the fact that a particular issue has not been addressed in the review. Such issues would not require a backfit finding to be addressed. New issues

will be addressed according to procedures developed in the EPRI ALWR Utility Requirements Document.

24. Dr. Okrent gave GE and the Staff instructions for presentations to be made to the full ACRS on the following day.

The morning session was recessed at 1:10 p.m.

Dear Dr. Okrent:

Thank you for your support of the ACRS Subcomittee meeting to discuss the General Electric Advanced Boiling Water Reactor (ABWR) January 7, 1987.

We believe the ABWR has some unique features which enhance the safety of the boiling water reactor.

The ABWR design has been developed over a period of 8 years and is now ready to be licensed through the support of the DOE Verification Program.

The program recognizes the EPRI-ALWR Requirements Program and agreements have been worked out with that program for the clear understanding of issue resolution.

In keeping with the intent of EPRI-ALWR Requirements Program, and within the schedule of licensing activities planned for the ABWR, we propose the attached agenda for your consideration at the January 7 meeting.

Such an agenda would provide the Subcomittee with a beneficial understanding of the working relationship of the ABWR Program with other programs as well as provide adequate coverage of the agenda items of your memorandum, dated December 17, 1986.

We will call you to confirm this agenda.

We look forward to meeting with you and your committee on January 7.

Sincerely,

~
