ANS STANDARDS SUPPORTING DOE AND NRC NPH DESIGN DOE NPH Workshop Carl Mazzola (PEC) October 29, 2024
CONSENSUS STANDARD DEVELOPMENT PROCESSES Approved by a Balance of Interest (BOI) cross-section of industry and regulatory representatives using a consistent process Developed by Standards Development Organizations (SDOs) when industry identifies a need Often endorsed by a regulator (NRC) or state or federal entity (DOE); thus becoming a regulatory requirement in state or federal law Involves a process that takes many years to achieve consensus from many techniques, viewpoints, and opinions

ANS-2.2-2020: EARTHQUAKE INSTRUMENTATION CRITERIA FOR NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS
Purpose:
To specify the minimum requirements for earthquake instrumentation. Should an earthquake occur, the instrumentation provides information on the vibratory ground motion and resultant vibratory responses of representative structures
- Status: Reaffirmed in 2020. Reaffirm/revise decision in 2025
ANS-2.3-2021: STANDARD FOR ESTIMATING TORNADO, HURRICANE & EXTREME STRAIGHT-LINE WIND CHARACTERISTICS AT NUCLEAR FACILITY SITES
Purpose:
Establishes guidelines to estimate frequency of occurrence and magnitude of parameters associated with rare meteorological events such as tornadoes, hurricanes, and extreme straight-line winds at nuclear facility sites. Parameters addressed include: maximum translational and rotational wind speed, atmospheric pressure change, and design basis missile characteristics. Does not address forces on structures resulting from these phenomena
- Status: Reaffirmed in 2021. WG reconstituted to revise. Evaluating relevant information from 6-yr NIST/ASCE Joplin, MO tornado study that also supported ASCE 7-22 and EPRI High Wind Manual. NRC (RG 1.76) and DOE (DOE-STD-1020-2016) will also be looking at these new technical sources
ANS-2.8-2019: PROBABILISTIC EVALUATION OF EXTERNAL FLOOD HAZARDS FOR NUCLEAR FACILITIES
Purpose:
To present criteria to establish design basis flooding for nuclear safety-related features at nuclear facilities. Describes evaluation of flood having virtually no risk of exceedance that can be caused by precipitation and snowmelt and any resulting dam failures, seismically-induced dam failures, surge or seiche and attendant wind-generated wave activity, or a reasonable combination of these events
- Status: Addresses many flood initiators inclusive of seiches, surges, and tsunamis. Contains methodologies to perform PFHAs
ANS-2.10-2022: CRITERIA FOR THE HANDLING & INITIAL EVALUATION OF RECORDS FROM NUCLEAR POWER PLANT SEISMIC INSTRUMENTATION

ANS-2.26-2021: CATEGORIZATION OF NUCLEAR FACILITY STRUCTURES, SYSTEMS, AND COMPONENTS FOR SEISMIC DESIGN
Purpose:
Provides criteria for selecting Seismic Design Category (SDC) for nuclear facility structures, systems, and components (SSCs) to achieve earthquake safety and criteria and guidelines for selecting Limit States for these SSCs to govern their seismic design. Limit States are selected to ensure desired safety performance in an earthquake
- Status: Reaffirmed in 2021. WG re-established to develop revision. Will be addressing design categorization of all NPHs.
Harmonizing SDCs since these used in this standard are not the same as SDCs referred to in the International Building Code
ANS-2.27-2020: CRITERIA FOR INVESTIGATIONS OF NUCLEAR FACILITY SITES FOR SEISMIC HAZARD ASSESSMENTS
Purpose:
Provides criteria and guidelines for conducting geological, seismological, and geotechnical investigations needed to provide information to support seismic source characterization input to a probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA), evaluation of surface fault rupture hazard, site response analysis, and seismic-induced ground failure hazard
- Status: Reaffirmed in 2020. Reaffirm/revise decision in 2025
- Note: These criteria are applicable for SDC-3 thru SDC-5 SSCs.
Does not address use of PSHA results or selection of design basis events for nuclear facilities. These topics are covered in ANSI/ANS-2.26-2021 and ASCE/SEI 43-05
ANS-2.29-2020: PROBABILISTIC SEISMIC HAZARD ANALYSIS
Purpose:
