  • The current list of approved FAQs can be found on the NRC website.

©2024 Nuclear Energy Institute 3 Summary of Changes

Replaced references to Consolidated Data Entry (CDE) with Industry Reporting and Information System (IRIS) throughout Incorporated definition of concurrent failure Additional clarity added to the Unplanned Scram with Complications Section

  • Updated criteria to account for AP1000 design differences
  • Updated BWR question for verifying rod position
  • Clarified use of SRVs for pressure control following the initial transient
  • Clarified conditions for meeting MFW availability

©2024 Nuclear Energy Institute 4 Summary of Changes

Add clarity to unplanned power changes when addressing unrelated issues during planned power reductions Added new plant specific FAQs Major reformatting of MSPI section including App. F & G Major reformatting/rewrite of EP section including retirement of ANS PI and addition of new ERFER PI*

ROP Public Meeting

Sept 25, 2024

©2024 Nuclear Energy Institute 9 Path Forward

White paper submitted to NRC to provide recommended clarifications to NEI 99- 02, unplanned scrams per 7000 critical hours PI. (ML24185A209)

Discussed at NEI 99- 02 public meeting on Aug 28th for consideration in rev. 8.

Clarify when manual scrams are used as part of a normal reactor shutdown sequence.

  • After removing the main generator from the electrical grid to shutdown the reactor versus reaching manual or automatic scram criteria because of a transient/required action.
  • As part of main turbine post maintenance testing following major maintenance to address expected rubs/vibrations versus as a response to equipment failures.

Examples pulled from NEI 99-02 draft rev. 8 based on NRC questions/comments discussed at the public meeting.

©2024 Nuclear Energy Institute 10 Path Forward

Subject of a future public meeting/workshops (late 4th quarter or early 1st quarter 2025) to discuss white paper and other examples after rev. 8 is issued.

Potential outcomes provided alignment is reached.

  • Additional clarification and descriptions for unplanned scrams under the IE cornerstone section
  • New appendix similar to App. H, USwC Basis Document, that provides more details and supporting information/examples.
  • Improved guidance when exceptions should be pursued/considered based on certain criteria and situations that may be encountered.
