SUMMARY
REPORT ON THE REGULATORY AUDIT OF TOPICAL REPORT, TP-LIC-RPT-0007, DESIGN BASIS ACCIDENT METHODOLOGY FOR EVENTS WITH RADIOLOGICAL RELEASE, REVISION 0 (EPID NO. L-2024-TOP-0009)
Dear George Wilson:
By letter dated March 22, 2024, TerraPower, LLC (TerraPower) submitted topical report (TR)
TP-LIC-RPT-0007, Design Basis Accident Methodology for Events with Radiological Release,"
Revision 0 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML24082A262) to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff. The TR provides evaluation models (EMs) developed for the Natrium reactor to evaluate design basis accidents (DBAs) with the potential for radiological release. On April 22, 2024, the NRC staff found that the material presented in the TR provides technical information in sufficient detail to enable the NRC staff to conduct a detailed technical review (ML24107B043).
Enclosed is a summary report on the regulatory audit conducted by the NRC staff in connection with its ongoing review of the TR. The audit followed the plan dated July 15, 2024 (ML24197A156).
The audit summary report does not make any licensing conclusions or findings, but it is part of the administrative record of the NRC staffs review of the TR and may provide information supporting the NRC staffs safety evaluation. No requests for additional information were identified as part of the audit and there are no open items resulting from the audit. However, by letter dated February 28, 2025, TerraPower submitted a revision to the TR, renumbered as NAT-9394, Design Basis Accident Methodology for Events with Radiological Release, Revision 0 (ML25063A329) to address the results of the audit.
If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact me at (301) 415-5301 or via email at Stephanie.Devlin-Gill@nrc.gov.
Sincerely,
/RA/
Stephanie Devlin-Gill, Senior Project Manager Advanced Reactor Licensing Branch 1 Division of Advanced Reactors and Non-Power Production and Utilization Facilities Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Project No.: 99902100
