Discussion on Uses of NUREG-2152 Yoira Diaz-Sanabria Chief of the Containment, Thermal, Chemical, and Fire Protection Branch Division of Fuel Management Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards Nuclear Regulatory Commission Workshop on Spent Fuel Performance Margins June 11, 2020
During public meetings held on March 25 and April 15, NEI raised the following:
- How do reviewers apply NUREG-2152 and is it being considered as de facto regulation (i.e.,
the only way of reaching compliance)? Is it being considered a regulatory guide or a regulation?
- If industry deviates from what is written in the guidance (even if justified), its often rejected by staff.
- Did NUREG-2152 go through a public review process?
- If NUREG-2152 is being implemented as one way of reaching compliance with regulation why is it not a regulatory guide?
- Is the level of effort described in NUREG-2152 commensurate with the safety significance?
