Comments on NEI 17-07, Rev. 2

  • NEI 17-07, Rev. 2 allows use of NDMs with open finding level F&Os

- if a newly developed method is deemed not technically acceptable in the report, a utility may not use it in a PRA supporting risk-informed licensing applications. If the method is deemed technically acceptable, but if one or more finding level F&Os are issued in the report, the utility will need to justify the use of the method with these open findings in any risk-informed licensing applications.

[emphasis added]

Importance of Closing NDM Open Findings

  • Peer-reviews determine whether requirements of the Standard are met; framework for NDM to be deemed acceptable is unclear

- The standard requires a peer review process that identifies and assesses where the technical requirements of the standard are not met. [RG 1.200]

  • Unclear how licensees/peer-review of implementation can justify use of NDM with findings (considering lack of expertise, detailed knowledge of NDM, etc.)
  • Review of findings by staff may expand the scope of review to other aspects of methodology
  • NDM documentation issues may be important as those issues potentially impact implementation of NDM

Other Comments on NEI 17-07

  • Page 17: limited self-assessment of the IEPRA for Internal Flood, Fire, and external hazard PRAs
  • Page 23: beyond a sampling process was removed
  • Page 28: Assigning UAM fore use of NDMs with findings was removed
  • Page 34: the peer review report should be provided to the NRC by the method developer, with licensee-specific information removed as necessary

- Methods submitted will be made publicly available with appropriate redaction of proprietary information

- Method developer has no regulatory requirements to provide the reports

  • Confusion on the use of External and Other hazards
