The attendance list for the November 14, 2007, meeting is contained in Enclosure 1. The agenda for the meeting is contained in Enclosure 2.
During the meeting, the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) presented the industry position on the performance indicator guidance contained in NEI 99-02, "Regulatory Assessment Performance Indicator Guideline," and how it related to the Duane Arnold event (Enclosure 5). The licensee then discussed the scram event, the circumstances leading up to the event, and their view of the guidance (Enclosure 6). The licensee concluded that based on their interpretation, the scram should not count toward the indicator. The staff then presented its views on the event and guidance, concluding that the scram should count towards the indicator (Enclosure 7). After several questions, the meeting concluded and the Director, Division of Inspection and Regional Support (DIRS) stated that he would make his decision prior to the December 5, 2007, Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) Working Group public meeting.
