1 PRESENTATIONS Inspections, Tests, Analyses, and Acceptance Criteria (ITAAC) - Mr. Jerry N. j Wilson, NRR: and Mr. Eugene J. Piplica. Westinghouse i Mr. Jerry N. Wilson NRR explained that the goals of design certification ,
were to achieve a stable and predictable licensin; nrocess. resolve safety 1ssues, maintain resolutions with a restrictive change process, and agree on a verification process before construction. He presented the two part review process that consists of Tier 1 information and ITAAC. The Tier 1 information is derived from the AP600 Standard Safety Analysis Report (SSAR) and is in effect though out the life of the plant. The ITAAC are used to verify that the as-built facility conforms to the approved design. The ITAAC have no ,
regulatory significance after fuel load. Mr. Wilson outlined the regulatory !
requirements for Tier 1 and the present status'of the Tier 1 review. The !
Subcommittee Members and Mr. Wilson discussed the usefulness of Tier 1 and ITAAC, and the mechanism for changing Tier 1.
Mr. Eugene J. Piplica. Westinghouse, described how the ITAAC were selected.
He explained the organization of the ITAAC which include an introduction.
system based design descriptions, non-system based design descriptions, interface requirements, and site parameters. Mr. Piplica presented an example of the ITAAC using the certified design material for the system based passive core' cooling system. He stated that revision 5 of the AP600 Tier 1 information was issued on May 8. 1998, and that revision 6 would be issued to close confirmatory items.
The Subcommittee Members.'the staff, and Westinghouse discussed:
the extent of staff inspection of the ITAAC:
which documents constitute the design-basis of the AP600 design:
.- skills of the review team that developed the ITAAC:
. plant features and functions covered by the ITAAC;
. extent of staff inspection of ITAAC compliance prior to fuel load:
existence of an ITAAC database:
. regulatory requirements for making changes to the design; and
. the reason for eliminating design acceptance criteria (DAC) for human factors, instrumentation and control, piping, and radiation protection.

O Advancec) Reactor Designs Subcomittee 3 June 17-18. 1998 Closure of ACRS Concerns - Messrs. Thomas J. Kenyon and William C. Huffman, Jr., NRR: and Mr. Brian McIntyre. Westinghouse The Subcommittee Members and the staff discussed the following issues related to advanced FSER chapters 4. 5, 7. 8. 11, 13. and 18 related to the reactor coolant system. I&C and electrical systems, and human factors.
the lack of tornado protection for the diesel generator radiator.
. boring of turbine generator rotors.
long term effect of smoke on digital I&C components.
the s,,f used in calculations related to high burnup fuels, and
. smoke migration through 3 hour3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> fire doors.
Mr. William C. Huffman, Jr., NRR, explained why the staff did not require Westinghouse to perform an analysis of a break downstream of automatic depressurization system (ADS) stages 1-3 discharge piping.
Level 1 Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) - Dr. Selim Sancaktar.
Westinghouse Dr. Selim Sancaktar. Westinghouse presented the results from the AP600 Level 1 PRA for the contribution of events to the core damage frequency (CDF),
initiating events, and dominant accident sequences. He described in details the intermediate loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) event including the related event tree, system success criteria, dominant accident sequences, and cut-sets.
Dr. Sancaktar explained that a THERP-based model was used for the human reliability assessment and that only rule-based operator actions were credited. He stated that human error probabilities (HEP) were modeled in terms of the cognitive phase, action phase. and recovery phase. Dr. Sancaktar presented examples of pages from the AP600 HEP Summary Results. These pages included a comparison of the contributions to CDF with and without credit for operator actions for different initiating events.
Dr. Sancaktar presented the databases used in deriving the probabilities in the PfS. He stated that failure data is generally derived from the Advanced Light Water Reactor Utilities Requirement Document. He explained that human error factors were derived from NUREG/CR-4550. Analysis of Core Damage Frequency From Internal Events." and NUREG/CR-2728. " Interim ReliSility Evaluation Program Procedures Guide."

.Advanecd Reactor Designs Subcomittee 4 June 17-18. 1998 f Dr. Sancaktar provided information regarding Westinghouse's estimates of common cause failures for software based digital I&C systems. He described how the explosive valve failure probability was calculated. He justified why the orifice plugging failure mode is considered not credible.
The Subcommittee Members and Westinghouse discussed: j 1
l
. risk insights and the results of external event and hazards assessments.
. how to characterize events with extremely low probabilities.
- uncertainties associated with extremely low probability events.
. calculation of common cause failures for squib valves and software.
. failure to account for operator errors of commission.
. treatment of line break downstream of ADS stages 1-3 discharge piping.
. derivation of human error probability and the time to complete actions.
. relationship between action time (T ) and time window (T,).
. difference between conditional and unconditional. .
. . basis for statement that plant does not depend on operators.
. sensitivity of CDF to plant monitoring system reliability, and
- derivation of squib valve reliability.
Containment Spray System - Mr. Terry L. Schulz. Westinghouse Mr. Terry L. Schulz, noted that the containment spray system was not required for design basis-accidents but did provide additional severe accident management capability. He described the design and operation of the system.
He explained that the system could operate for 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> and reduce iodine 131 release by about 50%. Mr. Schulz presented the containment spray system's interactions with other systems and test requirements. ,
The Subcommittee Members, the staff, and Mr. Schulz discussed:
. design restrictions regarding the fire protection system water sources.
. effects on the water in the containment cavity during severe accidents.
. production of nitric acid in the containment during severe accidents.
. human errors of commission, and
. adverse systems interactions.
Adverse System Interaction Evaluation - Mr. Terry L. Schulz Westinghouse Mr. Terry L. Schulz, Westinghouse, explained that adverse system interactions were evaluated by considering functional, human-intervention, and spatial l interactions and by assessing passive safety and active nonsafety systems. He

of passive and active systems interactions, and discussed the example of how the reactor coolant pumps were evaluated. Mr. Schulz described the systematic considerations and bases for determining adverse interactions caused by human intervention and spatial interactions. He concluded that the AP600 design l effectively separated systems, uses passive features to reduce the number of l system interaction issues, and improves fire protection inside containment.
The Subcommittee hembers, the staff, and Mr. Schulz oiscussed evaluation of interactions among active-nonsafety systems, inconsistencies between adverse
! interaction tables and PRA and sensitivity of the design to operator errors of commission.
Security Design - Mr. Brian A. McIntyre. Westinghouse Mr. Brian A. McIntyre. Westinghouse, presented the security design modification, which was made in response to ACRS concerns. He noted that some equipment was relocated, which provided greater flexibility to operations and maintenance personnel in carrying out their daily functions.
