Focused Self-Assessment of the Emergency Preparedness Significance Determination Process Don A. Johnson Senior Emergency Preparedness Specialist Division of Preparedness and Response Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 1

Purpose

ML17354A094).

  • In the letter to NEI, the NRC documents our intent to take a fresh look at the EP SDP and to convene an expert team to evaluate the EP SDP based on the NRCs experience with the EP SDP as well as inputs from external stakeholders.
  • During calendar year (CY) 2018, an expert team (consisting of selected NRC Regional and HQ staff) conducted an FSA in accordance with Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0307, Reactor Oversight Process Self-Assessment Programs.
  • This FSA consisted of procedural reviews, EP Inspector surveys, and review of external stakeholder comments and/or suggestions. The Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) held regularly scheduled meetings between staff and external stakeholders which were used to provide updates on the status of this FSA.
  • As part of the process, a public meeting was held on June 25, 2018 to begin the FSA. Todays public meeting is intended to provide our tentative results and plan going forward.
