SUMMARY
OF TELEPHONE CALL HELD ON NOVEMBER 9, 2009, BETWEEN THE U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION AND ENTERGY NUCLEAR OPERATIONS, INC., CONCERNING METEOROLOGICAL DATA USED FOR THE SEVERE ACCIDENT MITIGATION ALTERNATIVE ANALYSIS Representatives of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or the staff) and Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc., (Entergy or the applicant) held a telephone call on November 9, 2009, to clarify how the meteorological data that were used in the severe accident mitigation alternatives (SAMA) analysis were averaged. This call was a follow-up call to the call held on November 3, 2009.
During the call, Entergy informed the staff that, based on a review of the meteorological data used for the SAMA analysis, it discovered an error in how the wind direction data were averaged. Entergy stated that it has issued a condition report. It further stated that it will document the discovery of the error and that corrective action is being taken in a letter to the NRC.
Entergy plans to submit the results of a reanalysis of the MELCOR Accident Consequence Code System, Version 2 (MACCS2) calculations using corrected data. The staff asked Entergy to also include the following information in its submittal:
- identification of the wind data used and its justification (e.g., if a single year is used or an average of several years),
- revised estimates of the offsite population dose and offsite economic costs,
- identification of which meteorological tower heights were used for wind data and why they were selected,
- an assessment of the impact on the SAMA analysis results, specifically for the analysis case discussed in response to RAI 4e, dated February 5, 2008, and
- the complete MACCS2 input file used for the reanalysis (in electronic format).

SUMMARY
OF TELEPHONE CALL HELD ON NOVEMBER 3, 2009, BETWEEN THE U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION AND ENTERGY NUCLEAR OPERATIONS, INC., CONCERNING METEOROLOGICAL DATA USED FOR THE SEVERE ACCIDENT MITIGATION ALTERNATIVE ANALYSIS Representatives of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the staff) and Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc., (Entergy or the applicant) held a telephone call on November 3, 2009, to obtain clarification on how the meteorological data that were used in the severe accident mitigation alternatives (SAMA) analysis were averaged. As stated in the Environmental Report, five recent years of data were averaged and used as input for the MELCOR Accident Consequence Code System, Version 2 analysis; however, the applicant did not describe how the averaging of the data was conducted.
During the call, the staff asked Entergy to describe how it averaged the data and to verify the data for wind direction. Entergy stated that it averaged five years worth of meteorological data.
For each year, there are 8,760 data points. The applicant stated that it averaged each corresponding data point (i.e., same data point for each year) for all five years. It clarified that it averaged each parameter separately, i.e., wind speed, direction, precipitation and humidity.
The applicant stated that it will confirm with its contractor how the data were averaged, and indicated that another phone call might be needed.
The enclosure provides a listing of the participants.
The applicant had an opportunity to comment on this summary.
