SUMMARY

OF THE MAY 2, 2024, CLOSED PRESUBMITTAL MEETING BETWEEN THE US NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION AND THE PRESSURIZED WATER REACTOR OWNERS GROUP TO DISCUSS A CONCEPTUAL ON-LINE MONITORING PROGRAM FOR TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION INSTRUMENTATION (EPID L-2024-NFN-0005)

On May 2, 2024, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff held a closed meeting with representatives from the Pressurized Water Reactor Owners Group (PWROG) to discuss the preapplication of a proposed on-line monitor ing (OLM) software program for technical specification instrumentation. The meeting notice and agenda for the closed meeting are available in the NRCs Agencywide Documents A ccess and Management System (ADAMS) at Accession No. ML24093A282. The meeting attendance list is enclosed in this summary.

Due to the proprietary nature of the discussion, the meeting was closed to the public. The main purpose of the meeting was to obtain NRC sta ffs preapplication feedback prior to submitting topical report (TR) for NRC review. The PWROG representatives provided information on a proposed conceptual TR and presented a rationale for performance monitoring of the technical specification instrumentation to be used as the basis for establishing channel calibration frequency.

The meeting topics included an overview of a conceptual OLM program which included: (1) an executive summary of the PWROG OLM program for the TR, (2) key considerations for the OLM program, and (3) information about the use of machine learning to establish the frequency for surveillances that will be included in a future TR. The NRC staff engaged in several preapplication topics that should be considered when submitting a TR on this subject matter for the NRC acceptance and approval. The PWROG represent atives stated that the TR is expected to be submitted in October 2024 with an application request for a standard review.

G. George

At the conclusion of the meeting, all participants were informed that the feedback provided during the meeting met the goals and objectives of the meeting. No regulatory decisions or commitments were made during the meeting.
