W. Jessup During the meeting, TerraPower representatives described how the Natrium Code of Record will be defined. Codes and standards applicable to sodium fast reactor technology that have been endorsed by the NRC will be used to design safety-related structures, systems, and components (SSCs). Codes and standards used for the design of non-safety related with special treatment (NSRST) SSCs will be identified on a case-by-case basis. Non-safety related SSCs requiring no special treatment will be designed in accordance with current and appropriate engineering practices, codes, standards, methods of design, construction, and operation for commercial quality equipment.

At the end of the presentation, the public had an opportunity to ask questions of the NRC staff. TerraPower representatives and the NRC staff also discussed the next steps for future interactions regarding the Natrium Reactor design.
