7 2
- 1. My name is Dale G. Bridenbaugh. I am President 3
of MHB Technical Associates ("MHB"), a technical consulting 4
firm specializing in nuclear power plant safety, licensing, 5
nd regulatory matters, located at 1723 Hamilton Avenue, 6
. Suite K, San Jose, California 95125. I received a Bachelor i
f Science degree in mechanical engineering from South 8
Dakota School of Mines and Technology in 1953 and am a g
licensed professional' nuclear engineer. I have more than 30 years experience in the engineering field, primarily in power plant analysis, construction, maintenance, and operations. Since 1976, I have been employed by MHB and have acted as a consultant to domestic and foreign government agencies and other groups on nuclear power plant safety and licensing matters. Between 1966 and 1976, I was employed by the Nuclear Energy Division of General Electric i,s Company ("GE") in various managerial capacities relating to the sale, service, and product improvement of nuclear power reactors manufactured by that company. Between 1955 and 1966, I was employed in various engineering capacities working with gas and steam turbines for GE. Included in my duties at GE was supervision of startup testing of equipment in fifteen to twenty fossil and nuclear power plants. I also was responsible for various nuclear fuel projects ranging from the remote disassembly of irradiated 27 gg 8905160155 890508 PDR ADOCK 05000443 o PDR

l- ,
y ' fuel to the supply of reload fuel for operating nuclear 2 plants. I have authored technical papers and articles on the subject of nuclear power equipment and nuclear power 3
plant safety and have given testimony on those subjects.
4 other details of my experience and qualifications are 5
c ntained in Attachment al.
6 7 My direct experience with the Seabrook plant 2.
8 began in September 1983 when my firm was retained by the b Massachusetts Attorney General to evaluate the prudence of 10 expenditures by Fitchburg Gas and Electric Company on II Including that initial assignment, I have Seabrook Unit 2.
I2 evaluated various phases of the Seabrook project in six 13 different engagements. In my work as consultant on the N Seabrook plar.t, I have performed diverse assignments, 15 focusing primarily on technical reviews and analysis of 16 safety and cost issues. I have visited the plant on II several occasions and have participated in a number of Ib interviews and/or depositions of key Seabrook management 19 personnel.
20
- 3. The purpose of this Affidavit is to explain the technical reasons why low power testing to 5 percent power at Seabrook is of no value if subsequent power operation at or near full power is not authorized. It will further explain that there are, in fact, several irreversible changes which would result from testing at the 5% level 27 28 1
i I
y while no significant electrical power would be produced.
I These changes would limit the options available for the 2
plant and plant site in the event that full power operation 3
is not subsequently authorized, and would cause additional 4
financial st with no apparent off-setting benefit.

g power. The typical test sequence is to perform non-nuclear zero-power tests first, then proceed to "zero-power" nuclear tests and subsequently to low-power nuclear
, operation with no electrical production. Ilectrical 10 production is usually deferred until the test program achieves a power level of 10-15%. Permission to proceed to l,e a higher power level is in general predicated on fulfillment of the test objectives at the lower levels.
When the testing is completed satisfactorily at the lower levels and other requirements are satisfied, the plant is then permitted to operate at a power level at which 1 22 I sufficient steam is generated to allow production of 23 electricity. Power levels are increased in steps and tests are conducted at the steps until full power operation has been achieved. Most power ascension programs include a 27

l demonstration run at full power for 100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> after which 7
the unit is declared to be in commercial operation. The 2
minimum length of time in which this process can be 3
completed is about three months. At Seabrook, the test 4
program as specified in the Final Safety Analysis Report 5
was scheduled for four months. A more recent and detailed
. Power Ascension flow chart dated 1/20/86 shows a 90 day i
chedule for Seabrook (furnished by PSNH in response to 8
NHPUC Staff Set #1, Request 48, Docket DR 87-151).
10 5. All other factors being equal, the initial II operating phase at a new nuclear unit can be most 12 efficiently performed if a smooth transition is made from 13 fuel loading to low power operation and on to the power 34 testing above 5%. If a significant delay between the 15 testing steps occurs, it is most burdensome for that delay 16 to take place after power operation has begun. The reason 17 for this is because the power test program is designed so 18 as to be able to proceed from the completed tests at a 19 lower authorized power level to tests at the next power 20 step. If lengthy delays are introduced, it then becomes 21 necessary to repeat certain activities such as instrument 22 calibrations, water chemistry adjustments, thermal 23 expansion measurements, radiation surveys, control system 24 realignments and heat balance calculations to assure safe 25 and smooth transition to the next authorized level. An 26 additional complicating factor can be the need to conduct 27 28
y surveillance tests that are required at certain frequencies specified by the plant Technical Specifications. If the 2
s hedule is known ahead of time, such required activities 3
j can be programmed into the Power Ascension program. A 4 ,
delay prior to initial nuclear operation minimizes the need f 5
for dup iCation of such operations.
I 6. In the case of Seabrook Unit 1, the loading of 8 fuel into the reactor has now been completed and the 9 Company has completed the tests intended to be performed 10 prior to nuclear operation of the unit. This work was II authorized by the granting of a "zero" power license by the I2 Nuclear Regulatory Commission ("NRC") on October 17, 1986, 13 and fuel loading was begun on october 22, 1986. William B.
II Derrickson's L/ September 26, 1986 presentation to the 15 NRC's Advisory Committee of Reactor Safeguards ("ACRS")
16 indicated that the scheduled time for completion of the II non-nuclear tests following fuel loading was 4 to 6 weeks:
18 Our request is to be able to load fuel and 19 do the hot testing with the coolant system at operating temperature and pressure.
We have several tests to run, from tests 21 from the original hot function tests. This whole effort from the day we receive the 22 license to completion of the hot functional tests will take about a month or six weeks.
23 (ACRs Transcript, pp. 14-15) 24 25 1/ Mr. Derrickson is a Senior Vice-President of Public Service of New Hampshire and has primary 26 responsibility for the Seabrook project.
27 28 -s-t
l- ,
y This estimate is in general agreement with the 1/20/86 g Power Ascension cchedule which shows a 34 day period of time between fuel load and initial criticality, which is 3
the first time that nuclear operation begins.
4 ,
5 7. In the case of Seabrook, the operating license l
6 has now been requested in not one, but three separate I phases. The first phace which consists of fuel loading and 8 hot functional tests (but no criticality and no irradiation 9 of the fuel) has now been completed. The second phase, now 10 under review, would permit low power testing and subsequent II heatups involving operation at up to 5% of full power. The 12 third phase, if authori::ed, will permit operation between 13 5% and 100% power.
14
- 8. The NRC action to permit low power operation at Seabrook, if granted at this time is a deviation from common past practice. The traditional licensing practice I,t was in the past to grant an operating license as a result of a single licensing action. In those cases, fuel loading and low power test activities were then performed and integrated with ascension to full power. Shortly after the Three Mile Island accident, the NRC began to issue licenses in a two-step (low power-full power) process. This two-step process was implemented to help ease the licensing review backlog which resulted from the licensing hiatus following the 1979 accident. Initially, this two-step 26 .

, i I
I process worked reasonably well. Plants that were granted a 2 low power license generally completed the fuel loading and 3 low power testing by the time the full power license was 4
issued, with the low power testing and the full power 5 licensing relatively close together in time. 2/ Since 6
1984, however, there have been several cases of lengthy 7
delay between the low power license and the approval for 8 peration above 5%. Examples of these delayed cases g include:
10
- 1) Diablo Canyon 1, where a three year delay was yy experienced between the initial low power license (September 1981) and full power approval 12 (November 1984).
- 2) Shoreham, where a low power license was awarded 13 in July 1985 and full power authorization is yet to be issued.
34
- 3) Perry, which received low power authorization in 15 March 1986, did not receive full power approval until De ember 1986.
16 I These delays illustrate clearly that NRC approval of low 18 power operation-gives no assurance that timely 10 authorization of power operation is forthcoming. This 20 21 Of the 15 plants licensed for low power operation 2/
j 22 between March 1979 and June 1984 which also received a full power license during that period, the average l time between the low power and full power licenses was 23 The average time from initial less than 5 months.
24 criticality to award of the full power license was only 1/2 month (excluding Grand Gulf which was delayed 25 f r approximately two years because of improperly drafted Technical Specifications). See Attachment *2, l
26 p rtions of letter from NRC Chairman Palladino to Congressman Edward Markey, June 15, 1984.

w uld appear to be particularly relevant for Seabrook which 2
is now heavily engaged in the resolution of complex emergency planning issues.
3 4 . .
5 IRREVERSIBLE CHANGES IN STATUS OUO RESULTING FROM LOW POWER OPERATION 6
- 9. Before a reactor "goes critical" as it does for the first time during low power testing, neither the O nuclear fuel nor the reactor or its components, are 10 irradiated or contaminated by radiation. (The uranium II contained in the fuel is of course naturally radioactive, I2 but this material is at a very low level and is, fully 13 contained within the fuel rods.) Low power testing, 14 however, necessarily causes irreversible changes to the 15 nuclear fuel and to portions of the nuclear reactor.
16
- 10. There is necessarily irradiation of the nuclear l.e fuel as a result of low power testing. This irradiation 8
results in the build-up of quantities of fission products g
within the fuel which requires that the fuel subsequently be handled, transported, and treated as irradiated fuel.
Once these fission products have been produced, they cannot be removed from the fuel by any usual means. Thus, the irradiation from low power testing is irreversible. In addition to this, low power testing would result in some Components of the Seabrook plant becoming irreversibly 27 28 -a-
irradiated while other components will become contaminated 7
with activated corrosion products and fission products if 2
fuel r d leaks or perforations are present. The level of 3
~
irradiation and/or contamination would depend both on the 4
length of time and the power level of operation, on the 5
p rformance of the fuel, and on the purity and chemical 6
. conditions of the reactor coolant. Potentially affected i
mponents include portions of the reactor pressure vessel 8
and internals, the steam generators, the control rods, g
incere nuclear instrumentation, and reactor._ auxiliary g
system components, equipment, and piping. If contaminated by substantial quantities of radioactive fission products, special care would be required in handling these items.
14 11. The irreversible changes to the plant resulting 15 from power operation as described above makes a significant 16 change in the way in which the Seabrook plant must be II considered. Prior to power operation, the plant equipment 18 and components are radiation free (with the exception of 19 readily removable nuclear fuel and some sensors), and there 20 is no limitation as to what future option for the plant and (
21 the plant site may be selected. It is possible in this 22 condition that the plant could be abandoned, :onverted to 23 non-nuclear use, or ultimately operated as a nuclear unit 24 as planned. once radioactive, the options are reduced.
25 Both the plant and plant site become nearly irreversibly 26 committed to a nuclear facility. This is because some of 27
~9-28
y the plant equipment will be made radioactive and because l 2 the site itself becomes (de-facto) a long-term radioative waste st rage fa ility since there is no approved storage 3
l facility available to receive the irradiated nuclear fuel.
4 5 12. Because of the unavoidable irradiation and 6 contamination described above, the conduct of' low power 7 testing of necessity requires some worker exposure to 8 potentially harmful radiation during the course of the 9 testing as well as after the testing is completed. The 10 amount of exposure may not be large and unless errors are Il made, probably would not exceed allowable limits. However, I2 it is an additional unavoidable impact which results from 13 low power testing. The necessity of performing the 14 associated health physics protection requirements further 15 complicates maintenance and operation steps and makes plant 16 security a more critical and time consuming function.
17
- 13. In its non-irradiated condition, the fuel loaded into the Seabrook core probably has a recovery (or salvage) value that is likely equal to or a major fraction of the original purchase value of that fuel. This fuel, if not irradiated, likely could be sold to other nuclear plants to use as is, or, if necessary, to be reconfigure for a different reactor. (For example, some bundles might require manual disassembly and rod rearrangement or reconfiguration of the pellets for the necessary pattern of 27 28 - - _ _ _ _ - _ _ _ - - __ . _ _ _ _
l .
l 1
1 i
y enrichment.) Once the fuel is irradiated and there is a 2
build-up of fission products as would occur'during the pr p sed 5% p wer peration, it makes fuel shipment and 3
reconfiguration, and therefore most opportunities for reuse 4
5
- * #"*1' m re C mplicated and costly and therefore far less likely to be implemented. Based on present day
. nuclear fuel costs, the value of the Seabrook fuel is t
approximately $50-80 million. 2/ Salvage value 8
approximately equal to this amount could be realized from g
efe s presen n n. le s e hnically 10 possible that irradiated fuel could be transferred to a different reactor of the same design and subsequently used, there would be significant penalties associated with such an action. It would be necessary to ship the fuel in shielded casks which may or may not be readily available.
The fuel itself would not be of optimum design for equilibrium operation. Such a transfer has, to my l,e, knowledge, never been done in U.S. power reactors and would probably require lengthy review by the NRC and/or other regulatory bodies. Consequently, I conclude that the fuel has little or no value if used for testing up to 5% power.
My conclusion is supported by recent letter from Mr.
Harrison, president and CEO of PSNH to the NRC (NYN-87104 dated September 3, 1987) transmitting the following statement:
25 26 2/ See Attachment 3 for derivation cf the fuel value.
27 28
. , l y In order to determine the actual salvage value of the fuel after the low power 2 testing program, a market analysis would have to be undertaken at that time together 3
with a study of special costs for handling l and shipping the fuel. Although the Joint -
owners have not performed a rigorous study 4 ,
of these costs, a review was performed in late 1986 which indicated that the salvage 5
value of the fuel would approximately offset the costs of handling and transportation of j 6
the fuel to a third party resulting in no a net cost to the Joint Owners for the disposal of the fuel. l 8
g 14. The proposed 5% power operation would also result in the loss of potential salvage value fo'r other plant 10 components that would be substantially irradiated or 73 yg contaminated (i.e., steam generators, reactor components su h as control rods and other internals, coolant pumps and 13 g seals, valves, piping and instrumentation sensors). I g estimate the salvage value of these components to be at least $20-30 million. These components are virtually yg identical in all Westinghouse Pressurized Water Reactors, g
many are peri dically replaced, and others are useful for 18 yg replacement in the event of component failures. A resale market for them should exist but it would be severely 20 .
limited or negated if they are irradiated. In an interview 21 g conducted in conjunction with a Vermont proceeding (Vermont Public Service Board, Docket 5132), William B. Derrickson, l g Vice-President of PSNH stated his estimate of the salvage g4 value of the cancelled Seabrook Unit 2 to be approximately i g
l
$25 million. (See November 12, 1986 Interview, William B.
26 27 l l
28 !
l l
L _ __ _ _ _ \
l y Derrickson, p. 74.) It is likely, however, that if these same components were irradiated and/or contaminated by 2
power operation, they would have little or no or perhaps 3 .
negative salvage value.
4 5 15. Additional costs resulting from a decision to 6 perform low power testing are the costs of decontaminating, I decommissioning, and disposal of the fuel and portions of 8 the reactor system following a low power testing period in 9 the event that a full power license is not obtained. The 10 cost of necessary removal / disposal / decontamination efforts 11 could be tens of millions of dollars, depending on the 12 specific disposal requirements. Mr. Harrison's September 13 3, 1987 letter states the belief that the decontamination 14 following low power operation could be accomplished within 15 the " normal budget" of $10-11 million per month. He does 16 not speculate on the number of months that might be 17 required nor whether the " normal" budget could be reduced 18 quickly if that effort were not necessary. Such efforts 19 also carry with them the potential for additional worker 20 radiation exposure. If PSNH is not successful in selling 2I the irradiated fuel to another user, it will also need to 22 be treated as high level radioactive material and would l
23 likely ultimately be disposed of as spent fuel. Because of 24 the lengthy time periods during which spent fuel must be 25 isolated from the environment, Federal law has assigned the 26 responsibility for its ultimate disposition to the U.S.
27 ,

ultimate disposal of high level waste, but is also required to recover the full cost of disposal from the utility. DOE 3

has published exp,ected costs for the receipt and ultimate 4 ,
disposal of irradiated fuel. These expected costs are 5
currently being collected at a rate of $.001/ kwhr of 6

the future. Fuel typically operates at a design exposure 8
9 y cuidelines for the. recommendation'of nuclear waste 10 sites were enacted in 10 CFR Chapter III, Part 960 on November 30, 1984. These guidelines do not specify g precisely the length of time that high level waste must be safeguarded from the environment. The 12 guidelines do, however, give an indication of the time periods required by including numerous statements of 13 .' Qualifying" and " Favorable" Conditions such as:
14 (1) Site conditions (b) Favorable Conditions.
such that the pre-waste-emplacement ground-water 15 travel time along any path of likely radionuclides travel from the disturbed zone to the accessible 16 environment would be more than 10,000 years.
II (2) The nature and rates of hydrologic processes operating within the geologic setting ~during the 18 Quaternary Period would, if continued into the future, not affect or would favorably affect the 19 ability of the geologic repository to isolate the vaste during the next 100,000 years.
2I (Part 960 - General Guidelines For the Recommendation of Sites for Nuclear Waste Repositories, 10 CFR, Chapter III)
Citation of the above guideline is not intended to 23 imply that the Seabrook Site will be required to store the irradiated fuel for the next 10,000 to 100,000 24 years. It does however, give an indication of the irreversible effects involved in the decision being 25 considered.

I y of 20,000 MWD'(t)/ ton. For such fuel, this collection rate g is equivalent to approximately $150,000 per ton. DOE has n t established a rate for fuel exposed to the lower level 3
associated with the 5% power test operation, but there is 4
n reason to expect that the cost per ton could be 5
neg tiated t mu h below DOE's published rates as DOE is 6
. . required by law to obtain full cost recovery and the same 1
disposal care would likely be required. Accordingly, the 8
g potential cost for disposal by DOE of the 90 tons at Seabrook could be as much as $13,000,000, not counting g
transportation or possible cost increases. In addition, no g
disposal facility is planned or-expected until after the g
year 2000, at least 15 years in the future. It would
-3 therefore be necessary to store and safeguard the spent g
fuel on site until that time. Mr. Harrison's September 3, 1987 letter gives an estimate for the onsite storage of the fuel of approximately $700,000 per month. If this estimate le is correct, the cost of spent fuel storage and disposal becomes nearly a $140 million obligation. Reactor 1
19 components removal, handling and disposal would be additionally required. I do not believe the costs would actually be that high, but it is clear they could total tens of millions of dollars.
24 THERE IS NO PURPOSE SERVED, AND THE BENEFITS N PRODUCED BY LOW POWER TESTING ARE OUTWEIGHED BY THE l ADVERSE AND IRREVERSIBLE CHANGES IN THE STATUS OUO 27 28 _____ _
- 16. The essential purpose of a low power license is 7
to test reactor systems which cannot be effectively tested 2
in n neritical conditions. It is necessary to conduct such 3
testing prior to operating the plant at higher power levels 4
(i.e., greater than 5% power) . At 5% power, the reactor 5
w uld barely pr du e en ugh steam to spin the turbine and 6
- synchronize the generator. Taking into account the station i
g auxiliary power needs, it is not likely that net electric g power would be supplied to the gr!.d as a result of the testing, and there would be no displaced oil or fuel cost O
savings. Instead, power from the grid would be required to g
run the plant during the tests. Mr. Harrison's September g
3, 1987 letter contains as an enclosure Table 1, showing PSNH's estimated incremental costs for low power operation.
This Table shows a total cost for electric power for the low power testing of $1.144 million. This seems to verify f that no positive electrical power will be produced. Thus, 1,e,,
l l none of the benefits assumed in the NRC's Environmental Impact Statement for Seabrook would be achieved by low power testing; however, as noted, low power operation would 20 result in environmental impacts, such as plant contamination with radioactive material, the likely loss of the resale value of the fuel and other components once they become irradiated, the cost of decontamination, decommissioning and disposal, worker exposure, and last but
! 26 27 28 .. . _ _ - - _ _ - _ _
} not least, the potential commitment of the site to lengthy 2 radioactive waste storage use.
3 17.. Because low power testing standing a-lone produces 4 -
no net benefits but does have potential adverse effects, it 5
is my opinion that there is no reason to conduct low power 6
testing just for its sake alone. Rather, low power testing can be rationally justified only in circumstances where 8
there is no substantial doubt that the plant subsequently 9
will operate at higher power levels so that its benefits 10 (i.e., generation of electricity) will be available to 11 offset the adverse effects (fuel irradiation, radioactive 12 contamination, potential worker exposure) which cannot be avoided. In my technical opinion, the optimum time for I4 performing low-power testing of any nuclear reactor is 15 shortly before full-power operational' approval is re.liably 16 anticipated to be obtained.

C:mittee on Interior and Insular Affairs United States House of Representatives Washington, D.C., 20515
Dear Congressman Markey:
Your 'lettee of Har:h 30, le84 re uested an explanation of the risks associated with lew power operation at cocrarcial nu: lear power react:rs.
In addition, you raised five specific questions whien we have responded to i n A tta chne nt 1 to .t.h_i s.. l ett e r.
With regard to the risks associated with low power creratien, Attachment 2 is a Cemission pacer developed by the staff addressing this issue. As indicated by this pacer, the overall conclusion.that the staff must rea:h fer fuel leading and low powei testing up to 5 percer.t power, is that there is no undue risk to the health and safety of the public for the limited coerations autWorized. In' practice, the staff has developed analyses that indicate that the risks of 5 percent power cperatien can be expected to be a;oreciably less 'than the risks of 100 percent power operation.
C:missioner Gilinsky did n : par'ticipate in the p n;aration of.this reply.
We trust that this infor:.ation is responsive to ycur concerns.

You would have to design a 4 building arcund that structural steel. I dca't 5

ATTACRMENT 3 SEABROOK FUEL VALUE DERIVATION Assumptions:
Uranium content of core: 90 metric tonnes Average thermal output of initial core: 12,000 MWt-days / tonne Thermal efficiency of plant: 31%
Fuel cycle cost increment: $10/MW hr Fuel disposal cost included in fuel cycle cost: $1/MW hr 12,000 MWtD X 90 T X 24 Hr X 0.31 MWe = 8.035 X 10 6 MW hrs T D MWt 8.035 X 10 6 MW hrs X $9.00/MW hr = $72.3 million 12,000 MWt days / Tonne could vary substantially up or down.
Round to $50-80 million.
Note: Eastern Utilities Associates letter of February 18, 1987 to the Honorable Lawrence R. Alexander estimated the (market) value of the core at $5-23 million. The letter contained no
- basis for this number. It would appear to be an estimate of l
resale rather than replacement value.

OUESTION 1: What studies, reports or "NUREG" docunent has the Commission published concerning the risk of low power operation.
ANSWER NRC staff estimates of the relative risks of low power versus 100% power operation have been made in recent operating license cases based on consideration of important accident sequences from the Reactor Safety Study (WASH-1400).
These risk estimates are discussed in supplements to the NRC staff safety evaluation reports for several plants including the following:
(A) Diablo Canyon Units 1 and 2 (NUREG-0675, Supplement No.10, August 1980)
(B) San Onofre Units 2 and 3 (NUREG-0712, Supplement No. 4, January 1982)
(C) Summer Nuclear Station Unit 1 (NUREG-0717, Supplement No. 4, January 1982)
(D) LaSalle County Station, Units 1 and 2 (NUREG-0519, Supplement No. 3, April 1982)
(E) Grand Gulf Nuclear Station, Unit 1 (NUREG-0831, Supplement No. 2, June 1982)
(F) Susquehanna Station, Units 1 and 2 (NUREG-0776, Supplement No. 2, June 1982).

, QUESTION 2: What would be the accumulation of radioactive fission l products after 30, 60 and 120 days of 5 percent operation at a' typical BWR.and at a typical PWR7 l
ANSWER.
Low power testing of a new power reactor would not typically result in as much radioactive fission products as 30 days of continuous operation at the maximum pemitted power. Low power testing could be described as a period of final adjustment of many plant systems, punctuated by ascensions to the minimum power needed to perfonn each series of tests. The assumption of continuous operation at constant power, however, is usually made in computing radioactive inventories in order to simplify the equations of growth and decay and to provide an upper bound analysis of risks.
The distributions of fission products differ somewhat between BWR and PWR cores mainly due to differences in the relative amounts of fissions occurring iE3getinides(theseriesofelementsbeginningwithactinium) other than U. These other actinides are not present in new fuel, but they build up slowly over time through a series of reactions. These other actinidesaccumulateatdifferentratesinthetwg3gypesofcores,andhave fission product years which' differ from those of U. During low power testing with new fuel, very little generation of other fissile actinides .
would occur, and the early accumpgtion of fission products in both BWR' and.
PWR cores would be dominated by U fissions. A single estimate of accumulation of fission products, therefore,1s considered applicable to
. both reactor types. ,
While sufficient infomation is available for the estimation of 937 isotopes "
that may be generated in a reactor core, the' bulk of these have very short half-lives, are stable isotopes, or are made in very small amounts. The Reactor Safety Study (WASH-1400), identified 43 fission products and 11 actinides and other activation products which were judged responsible for virtually all radiological risk, and the staff uses only these radio-isotopes as a simplification in computing accident consequences. No detailed computer calculations of a core inventory at any of the durations of operation are available, and such calculations require lengthy preparations and significant expense. The requested accumulations, !
therefore, have been calculated from an existing computer-generated inventory using the equations of radioactive growth and decay to correct that inventory to approximate the requested conditions. The inventory silected was the new fuel region at 91 days of operation in case IIA 2, described in the report " Extended Burnup Calculations for Operating Reactor Reload' Reviews", NUREG/CR-3108, February 1983. Only the 43 risk-dominant fission products were corrected to the requested conditions.

. , e Of the 43 risk-dominant fission products, 25 have half-lives sufficiently short that they would closely approach secular equilibrium with a continuous source in 30 days or less. At equilibrium, the decay rate of a radioisotope equals its rate of production, and no further accumulation occurs. Four of these shorter-lived fission products however, have at least fractional parentage from longer-lived isomers or isotopes with which they are in transient equilibrium. At transient equilibrium, the decay rate of a daughter isotope equals the rate at which its parent decays. In Table 2.1, the megacuries of 21 shorter-lived fission products at secular equilibrium with a continuous source of 150 megawatts of fission have been listed,giong with the half-life of each isotope. A megacurie is a rate of 3.7 x 10 nuclear disintegrations per second. For comparison,150 megawatts (which is close to 5% of current generation reactor core power levels) is the power generated by 126 megacuries of fission. During low power testing of a new I core, the 21 fission products would 3e removed from secular equilibrium by {
variations in power level or periods of shut-down, but would approach !
secular equilibrium at any power level within several da depending upon i half-life. For example, the longest-lived Table entry, 'g, would I be at 50%
of its equilibrium value at 8.1 days of continuous operation, and at 98% at 30 days. -
The remaining 22 risk-dominant fission products accumulated after 30, 60, !
and 120 days in a continuous source of 150 megawatts of fission have been The entries listginTable Rb, and '35 2, alogg with the half-life of each isotope. j for Cs and ~Zr include estimated contributions from activation as well as fission yield, ang3jheir estimates' are correspondingly less I accurate. The radioisotope Cs is not included, since it i f33tafission j
' product, but an activation product of stable fission product Cs. It is l j
gimated that a 150 megawatt core would accumulate about 1000 curies of Cs in 30 days, with further accumulation to about 6000 curies at 120 days.
In addition to the 43 risk-dominant fission products listed, there are '
several hundred short-lived fission products accounting for several hundred megacuries in a 150 megawatt core. These are in approximate secular equi-librium within minutes of operation at any power level, but are too short-lived to be transported off-site in any accident.
Again, the actual amounts of the isotopes identified in Table 2.2 would vary in an extremely complex manner during variations of core power.

l As noted in the response to Question 2, the core inventory during low power .
testing would be expected to vary greatly due to fluctugj{ons in power level. The thyroid dose calculations are dominated by I, due to the !
nature of }gg radiation emitted by its decay, such that a similar number of
. curies of I pose more risk than a larger number of curies of the other i {cginefissionproductscombined. For a typical low power testing period, I would not be expected to accumulate to more than a fraction of its equilibrium value.
Under a Commission policy statement of June 1980, the staff and utilities have also assessed accident consequences and probabilities of very low probability accidents from an environmental as well as a safety point of view. These accidents are sometimes referred to as beyond design basis or Class 9 accidents. The staff has published Environmental Impact Statements covering such events for all license applications submitted after July 1, 1980. In addition, the staff has also assessed the risks (probability times consequences) from such accidents for such purposes as siting criteria studies, probabilistic risk assessment reviews of specific reactors and for generic studies. All of these assessments have been made for reactors coerating at full power. No specific offsite consequences have been assessed for reactors operating at low powdr levels.

QUESTION 3: What could be the off-site consequences of an accident at low power assuming the accumulation of fission products after 30, 60, and 120 days of 5 percent operation at a typical BWR and at a typical PWR7 Specifically, what, if any, source term assumptions does the NRC use for judging the risk of low power operation?
ANSWER
' The staff's Safety Evaluation Reports for proposed operating licenses consider a variety of postulated reactor accidents, all of which assume the reactor to have been at 105% of design power. The off-site consequences estimated in these reports are doses to hypothetical individuals at specific locations downwind from the plant, which are compared to the dose guidelines in 10 CFR Part 100. Analyses to estimate off-site consequences for power less than 105% of design are not performed since such consequence estimates would necessarily be lower.
The purpose of the postulated accident analyses in Safety Analysis Reports (SARs) is to assess the performance of the plant during postulated accidents and to demonstrate that the radiological consequences of the postulated accidents, when evaluated using conservative assumptions, remain below the guideline dose values of 10 CFR 100.
For the large break loss of coolant accident, (LOCA) the most severe reactor accident considered in the Safety Evaluation Reports, it is assumed that 100% of the noble gases, krypton and zenon, and 25% of the iodine in the core are dispersed into the containment, while 50% of the iodine is dis-solved in the emergency cooling water. The source term, i.e. , the amounts of these fission products escaping into the environment, is conservatively computed by modeling the containment leakage paths, leakage and dispersal of cooling water from the emergency cooling system, and operation of additional engineered safety features, all of which vary from plant to plant.
As shown in the response to the second question, the noble gas and iodine fission products are predominantly at secular equilibrium after 30 days of operation. Were the release assumed in Safety Evaluation Reports for the large break LOCA to occur during 5% power operation, the dose consequences estimated would be 4.8% of those reported for 105% power operation. Since these doses are estimated conservatively, no diminution by radioactive decay of the source term is accounted for, and the worst possible dose would be somewhat less. For typical BWR and PWR plants, this would result in dose 1 estimates of several REM to the thyroid and a few hundred millirem whole body to an individual spending the first two hours of the source tenn emission directly downwind at the exclusion area boundary during a period of l
~ extremely unfavorable weather, while breathing heavily. It should be noted j that the staff's methods of computing thyroid dose also assume that iodine l remains as elemental iodine during its transport. l l

l OUESTION 4: What does the NRC believe to be the probability of accidents at a typical BWR and at a typical PWR during low power operation? Identify the dominant accident sequences that could lead to core damage, core melting, or offsite releases.
Additionally, please indicate whether the Comission believes that the probability of mishaps and accidents is higher or lower for plants with a low power license than for plants with a full power license. Please also indicate what has
! been the history of operating experience for plants with low power license and provide any studies or memoranda concerning this subject.
ANSWER.
Estimates of risk reduction were made in recent operating license cases (See Question 1) based on dominant sequences from the Reactor Safety Study (WASH-1400). For PWRS and BWRS, the important sequences are small Loss-of-Coolant accidents and transients, with the addition of the Anticipated Transients Without SCRAM sequence for BWRS. The following major s factors contribute to a substantial reduction in risk at low power operation compared to equilibrium full power operation: ,
A. The reduced decay heat from low power operation results in a significant reduction in the response required to mitigate potential severe accidents and therefore a reduction in the likelihood of core damage. For example, passive heat sinks within the system may be sufficient to delay the need for operator remedial action for several hours before core damage would be a threat, similarly, the cooling water flow rates required to dissipate the low decay heat are reduced by a factor of 20 or more so that numerous small pumps available at a plant may be sufficient to provide adequate cooling in the event that the primary safety systems failed to function. !
B. The fission product inventory from operation at low power is significantly reduced and therefore the potential risk to the public is also reduced.

I Regarding minor malfunctions of normally operating systems, there may or may not be a greater number during this initial shakedown period. In any case, .
because of the factors discussed above, it is less likely that a " mishap" at low power operation would lead to a sequence resulting in core damage.
