UNITED STATESNUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSIONOFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATIONWASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001September 30, 2002NRC REGULATORY ISSUE SUMMARY 2002-14, SUPPLEMENT 1PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE SAFETY SYSTEM UNAVAILABILITYPERFORMANCE INDICATORS

ADDRESSEES

All holders of operating licenses for nuclear power reactors, except those who havepermanently ceased operations and have certified that fuel has been permanently removed from the reactor vessel.

INTENT

The U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing this supplement to RegulatoryIssue Summary (RIS) 2002-14 to provide to the addressees revised versions of the three attachments to the RIS.

BACKGROUND

Regulatory Issue Summary 2002-14 informed addressees that the NRC was starting a 6-monthpilot program on September 1, 2002, to evaluate changes to the safety system unavailability (SSU) performance indicators (PIs), and that the pilot program would be assessed midway through the test period to determine if more than six months were needed to obtain meaningful results. The RIS and its three attachments provided guidance to participating addressees for submitting PI data to the NRC and on the program success criteria. Addressee participation in the pilot program is voluntary and participants were asked to conformto the guidance in the RIS for the voluntary submission of PI data.

Addressees

were also informed that updated guidance would be provided in the form of revisions to the attachments to the RIS, namely, Attachment 1, an excerpt from Draft NEI 99-02, Rev. 0, "Regulatory Assessment Performance Indicator Guideline," Section 2.2, "Mitigating System Performance Index," and Attachment 2, Draft NEI 99-02, Rev. 0, Appendix F, " Methodologies For Computing the Unavailability Index, the Unreliability Index and Determining Performance Index Validity."

SUMMARY OF ISSUE

Since the issuance of RIS 2002-14 on August 28, 2002, Attachments 1 and 2 have beenupdated and Attachment 3 has been revised. The revised attachments are attached to this RIS

supplement.ML022740008 RIS 2002-14, Sup. 1

BACKFIT DISCUSSION

This RIS supplement requires no action or written response. Therefore, the staff did notperform a backfit analysis.

FEDERAL REGISTER NOTIFICATION

The term

"rare" is defined as minimizing theinconsistencies across plants, within plants, and within systems such that there is no undue burden on resources, and the objective of having consistent publicly displayed results can be achieved. b.False positive and false negative rates can be established for the chosen statisticalmethod, and instances where the MSPI cannot meet the criteria are rare. c.Instances where the results from the MSPI calculational methodology are not consistentwith the SPAR-3 models are rare and the differences are explainable. d.The MSPI pilot plant participants can identify and compile the risk significant functionsfor the monitored systems in a readily inspectable format and can compile a set of predetermined success criteria for those risk significant functions. e.The active components in the monitored systems are appropriate for inclusion in theMSPI and are a manageable number of components under the MSPI. f.By the end of the pilot, MSPI data can be accurately reported and quality checked.

g.By the end of the pilot program, inspection procedures and MSPI pilot guidelines aresufficiently detailed to minimize MSPI Questions and NRC feedback forms. h.MSPI Questions and NRC feedback do not reveal any unresolvable issues.

i.Data collection inconsistencies between the maintenance rule and the MSPI can bereconciled in order to eliminate or significantly reduce separate reporting. j.Differences between the linear approximation models generated by licensee probabilistic risk assessments and those generated by the NRC SPAR-3 models can be reconciled. k.The MSPI produces no new unintended consequences that cannot be resolved.

Upon the successful meeting of the success criteria, with a determination that the MSPI pilot isa valid and appropriate means of measuring risk for the monitored systems, the MSPI will suffice as the measure of assessment and not the significance determination process for single failures of the active components within the scope of the MSPI. Any significant problems will be resolved before full MSPI implementation.
