The next topic was the issue of enforcement discretion. NEl stated their conclusion that enforcement policy changes should be made immediately such that no enforcement action is taken for circumstances that are clearly not safety significant, in order to achieve stability. The staff indicated its plans to continue to exercise discretion with respect to severity levels or issuance of civil penalties (under existing enfo cement policy), pending further interaction with the Commission on enforcement policy changes.

Finally, NEl stated that as part of upcoming rulemaking on 10 CFR 50.59 criteria, the NRC should address the scope of changes that require evaluation directly in the regulation, rather than indirectly through the FSAR. Specifically, they would redefine the changes requiring evaluation against the USQ criteria to be those that affect safety analyses.

SUBJECT:

SUMMARY

OF APRIL 23,1998, MEETING WITH THE NUCLEAR ENERGY INSTITUTE (NEI) REGARDING 10 CFR 50.59 On April 23,1998, a public meeting was held at the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Co (NRC's) offices in Rockville, Maryland, between representatives of the NRC N on's interested parties. Attachment 1 provides a list of attendees at the meeting A er includes the agenda that was used for the meeting and the presentation m n

NEl for the meeting. Attachments 3 and 4 are supplementalinformation pro e

T. Essig _ of a recent enforcement action where the change was from 22 Rem to 23 Rem (the limit was 30

~ Rem), as a case that should not have required prior review (and thus which should not have been a violation because it did not).

The next topic was the issue of enforcement discretion. NEl stated their conclusion that enforcement policy changes should be made immediately such that no enforcement action is taken for circumstances that are clearly not safety significant, in order to achieve stability. The staff indicated its plans to continue to exercise discretion with respect to severity levels or issuance of civil penalties (under existing enfo cement policy), pending further interaction with the Commission on enforcement policy changes.

Finally, NEl stated that as part of upcoming rulemaking on 10 CFR 50.59 criteria, the NRC should address the scope of changes that require evaluation directly in the regulation, rather than indirectly through the FSAR. Specifically, they would redefine the changes requiring evaluation against the USQ criteria to be those that affect safety analyses. They would propose to include in the rule a functional definition of " safety analyses" (see preliminary thoughts in ), referring to analyses performed pursuant to Commission requirement, or requested to validate conformance with requirements, or other analyses that are approved by -

NRC (by issuance of safety evaluation reports). They would supplement the definition with lists

. of such analyses in a guidance document. A draft outline of how such safety analyses and

^

changes affecting them might be characterized was distributed at the meeting (see ). The staff stated that it would consider this proposal but noted that this could not be done on the July 1998 schedule for the proposed rule established by the SRM. Further, the staff emphasized that even if such a rule change were pursued, there is still the need for licensees to update their FSARs to be complete and accurate in accordance with 10 CFR 50.71(e). Further meetings with NEl are anticipated to discuss FSAR update guidance and other issues.

validate compliance with existing requirements, and is necessary to demonstrate the integrity of the reactor coolant pressure boundary, the capability to shutdown the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition, and the capability to prevent or mitigate accidents that could result in potential offsite exposures.

Safety an dvses include:

analyses included in the FSAR and approved by the Commission as part ofinitial licensing analyses performed pursuant to new or amended Commission regulations subsequent to initial licensing analyses performed in response to a generic or plant-specific issue to validate compliaace with existing requirements analyses specifically approved by the NRC via SER Note: When a new analysis or change to plant orprocedures "affects"one or more safety analyses, the safety analyses should be updated to reflect the change to maintain an accurate baseline for evaluation offuture changes.

Safety analyses do not include:

detailed calculations and other non-docketed analyses performed in support of safety analyses environmental, financial and other analyses unrelated to nuclear safety docketed information controlled by other regulations (QA, EP, Security) analyses submitted to the NRC in response to generic communications that do not affect analyses required to support initial licensing or demonstrate compliance with new or amended regulations (Note: required analyses should be updated to reflect the effects of other changes, analyses or issues.)

analyses provided in LER or NOV responses except as required to demonstrate compliance with NRC regulations; the effects of such analyses should be incorporated in the UFSAR in a subsequent update l
