Talking points for the meeting on Thursday

Gordon, Below are the talking points that the staff would like to cover during the meeting on Thursday. Thanks.

Justin C. Poole Sr. Project Manager NRR/DORL/LPWB U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (301)415-2048 email: Justin.Poole@nrc.gov Discussion bullets for the 2/2 meeting with TVA

• Regarding the sample 2.9 deviations:

NRC Staff first impression: Lots of detail; But upon examination: A lack of connection between the text and conclusions.

Expected something more like the OMA evaluations in FPR Part VII, Section 8 Description of condition being evaluated Why III.G.2 in not currently met (i.e., redundant trains are installed)

What OMAs are being eliminated Explanation of why its OK Nonetheless, there are good parts and this is a good step forward

• Discuss the technical justification for the use of random failures in the sample 2.9 deviations.

• Is the sentence: These [Unit 1] OMAs remain applicable pending further evaluation. (pg. 6) intended to be a commitment for Unit 1?

• Discuss how Unit 1 / Unit 2 differentiation is handled in the sample 2.9 deviations.

Unit 1 equipment Unit 1 OMAs

• How will the new 2.9 deviations interact with the rest of the FPR?

Part III; Part VI, Part VII, Sections 3.1, 4.5, and 8

• Steps taken/to be taken to resolve on-going information quality issues. (That is, what will TVA be doing differently. More reviews has not worked so far.)

• Apparent inconsistency between Part II Table 14.1, Zone 118 entry New Fuel Storage Area (4 detectors) and Part VII, Section 4.5 evaluation (no detectors).
