NEI Reactor Oversight Process Whitepaper, Change to the NEI 99-02 Text for the Drill/Exercise Performance Indicator - Initial Notification Form Accuracy
Dear Mr. Kahler:
During a Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) public meeting on April 5, 2018,1 the Nuclear Energy Institute 2 (NEI) introduced three white papers associated with emergency preparedness performance indicators to the NRC for review. One of the white papers proposed a change to the criteria for assessing the accuracy of an initial notification form used to provide information to an Offsite Response Organization (ORO); the criteria are presented in the Drill/Exercise Performance section of NEI 99-02, Regulatory Assessment Performance Indicator Guideline, Revision 7. The change would eliminate the current guidance to report a Drill/Exercise Performance (DEP) opportunity failure for an incorrect form entry that would not impact the ability of an ORO to make a Protective Action Decision (PAD).
NEI and industry representatives met with the NRC on August 28, 2018, to discuss staff comments on the proposed change.3 The white paper has been revised to address the comments provided in the meeting and the revised paper is attached to this letter.
We request a review of the attached white paper and a response indicating NRC approval for implementation.
