WORK REQUIREMENTS (DESCRIBE WHAT IS TO BE PERFORMED) h This contract will provide support to RSB in the evaluation of the PRA submitted by the Public Service Company of New Hampshire pertaining to l
the Seabrook Nuclear Power Plant.
The contractor is to perform a limited I
review and evaluation of the risk assessment to determine if estimates of risk reflect appropriate use of risk assessment methods and plant / site information, and is to compare the Seabrook containment and other severe
]
accident mitigation features to those at the Zion and Indian Point nuclear power plants. The defensibility of the licensee's submittal of risk and associated uncertainty spread with respect to (1) use of state of the art risk assessment methods, (2) thoroughness and comprehen-siveness of analysis, (3) availability and appropriate use of data, and (4) realism of modeling assumption, will be considered.
Methodology, assumptions, data, information sources, models, plant understanding, 1

- WORK REQUIREMENT (continued) 1 completeness of the analysis, and any other area which could affect the quantitative or qualitative results will be considered. A limited sensitivity analysis will consider alternatives identified in the review 1
in appropriate combinations and determine the incremental change in risk resulting.from the use of alternatives in the dominant sequence.
i The work will be accomplished under the following categories:
1.
Evaluation of risk due to internal events 2.
Evaluation of risk due to external events 3.
Draft report preparation 4.
Final report preparation 4
5.
Preparation of questions to the licensee and participation in a plant examination trip.

.....,,,u.... +.p BNL can provide us with the required technical support because they have been intimately involved with severe accident (degraded core / core-melt) analysis and assessment for a large variety of nuclear power plants for the past ten years.
They have recently completed the major portion of the work for two PRAs on plants similar in design to the Seabrook plant, and they are intimately familar with the work that is required for the Seabrook PRA evaluation. They also can make experienced personnel available on a basis consistent with the schedule requirements for this work.
This background makes BNL the most appropriate source for these services.
In addition:
BNL has large computer facilities which are required for the complex computer ar alysis; BNL has no.onflict of interest problem; and BNL has expertise in areas supportive of the direct contractual activities in addition to that mentioned above, including the computer programs required for the necessary analysis work, the expertise to operate these programs and to interpret the results, structural analysis capability, and is involved with RES research programs which are directly applicable to the effort required for the proposed work.
