FW: Re: Harvesting Workshop Announcement
Dr. Arai and Dr. Higuchi:
Thank you for your interest and willingness to participate in the workshop. I have attached the workshop announcement and condensed agenda along with a few slides describing the motivation for the workshop and the expectations for each session. The workshop is divided into 5 sessions, each with a combination of presentations and discussion:
I. Session I will consist of short presentations and a panel discussion on the motivation for harvesting.
- 2. Session 2 will discuss data needs best met through harvesting.
- 3. Session 3 will discuss sources o f materials for harvesting programs 4. Session 4 will discuss lessons-learned from past harvesting programs and practical aspects associated with harvesting.
- 5. Session 5 will attempt to summarize the workshop and planning a harvesting program, as well as discuss actions and next steps We would like to invite you to present in any of Sessions 2, 3, or 4. For session 3, we are looking for brief 5- 10 minute presentations, so just a few slides at most on sources of materials. For sessions 2 and 4, the presentations are anticipat.ed to be longer, perhaps 20-30 minutes, covering data needs best addressed through harvesting (session 2) and lessons learned from previous harvesting experience (session 4).
Please let me know if you would be able to participate and which sessions you would be willing to support, along with presentation titles. We will look forward to your participation and contribution to the workshop!
Warm regards, Rob Robert Tregoning Technical Advisor for Materials US Nuclear Regulatory Commission Two White Flint North, MIS T- 10 A36 I 1545 Rockville Pike Rockville, MD 20852-2738 ph: 301-415-2324 fax: 301 -415-6671

[External_Sender) Re: Harvesting Workshop Announcement
Dear Rob,
Sorry for my late response. ! talked to several stakeholders about our p resentation at the workshop. At this point of time, it looks we should make a presentation in Session I on the motivation for harvesting.
CRIEPI has a lot of experiences on characterizing materials from nuclear reactors. We would like to talk. about our motivation for harvesting in light of such experiences.
I learned that I need to stay within Japan during that week, and Dr.
Taku Arai and Dr. Sadao Higuchi will participate the workshop from CRIEPI. These two people are deeply involved in the discussions on future possible researches of decommissioned materials in Japan, even though such discussions are still in a very early stage. So I think they can contribute to discuss ions in other sessions as well.
I would appreciate if you could provide me with any new information about the workshop so that my colleagues can
start preparing for the workshop. You can find their e-mail addresses in the Cc: fields of this message.

[External_Sender] Harvesting Workshop Announcement
Dear Dr. Tregoning and Dr. Hiser,
>>> Dr.Rosseel of OR NL kindly let me know that the USNRC is organizing a material harvesting workshop in March, and I am writing you to ask if there is any chance for us to participate and contribute, somehow, to the workshop.
>>> We, CRIEPI, arc working with Tom and Dr. Sokolov ofORNL on the characterization ofRPV materials from Zion Unit l under the US-Japan collaboration. We also have some discussions in Japan about materials harvesting from decomissioncd Japanese LWRs because some of the Japanese util ities decided permanent shutdown of some of the old LWRs. So, materials harvesting is becoming a hot topic in Japan, and we are very much interested in participating in the workshop.
>>> I would appreciate if our participation in the workshop is acceptable with the USN RC, and if so, please let me know your current idea about the scope of the workshop so that we can discuss how we can contribute to the workshop.
>>> I would like to send at least one researcher from CRIEPI, but some people from other organizations in Japan may also like to pa1ticipate.
>>> I look forward to hearing from you.

Ex-Plant Materials Harvesting Workshop March 7-8, 2017 USNRC HQ Rockville, MD, USA
Meeting Logistics
- Workshop is a non-public meeting to encourage open discussion Presentations and meeting summary will be distributed among meeting participants only
- Meeting materials would be subject to FOIA (in accordance statutory requirements) if requested
- Please indicate if any proprietary information is presented
- GoToMeeting webinar will be available to support additional attendees
- Webinar attendees will be primarily observers
- Limited opportunities for webinar attendee participation in discussion if time allows Discussion will be recorded through GoToMeeting software to aid capturing discussion in meeting summary
Motivation
- With plants shutting down both in the U.S. and internationally, there are increasing opportunities to harvest components from decommissioning plants
- Past harvesting efforts generally more reactive as opportunities arose, rather than proactively planned
- Ex-plant materials may be valuable because they have been exposed to actual in-service plant operating conditions
- Can reduce the uncertainty associated with the applicability of the aging conditions
- Insights from research on harvested materials can address technical data needs identified for extended plant operation
- Lessons learned from past harvesting programs can help improve future harvesting efforts Challenges encountered in previous programs can be shared and mitigated or avoided in future programs
Approach
- Domestic and international researchers, industry, regulators, and decommissioning companies' discuss benefits and challenges with ex-plant harvesting
- Encourage sharing of lessons learned as well as areas of common interest
- Workshop consists of topical sessions with short presentations and significant time for open discussion
- Goal is to maximize engagement among meeting participants
- Scope includes any materials aging issue that could benefit from harvesting, including metals, cables, and concrete
Expected Outcome
- Participants become better informed and aware of the benefits and challenges associated with ex-plant harvesting
- Discussions help identify areas of common interest for harvesting to address technical data needs
- Presentations and discussions provide the starting point for a "database" of harvested materials and future harvesting opportunities
- Contacts are made among research organizations to allow for further discussion of specific harvesting projects
Session Expectations
- Session 1 Motivation for Harvesting Perspective from panel participants on their organizations' interest in and motivation for harvesting Brief (5-10 minute) presentation from each panel member followed by general discussion
- Session 2 Technical Data Needs for Harvesting
- Presenters share high-priority data needs that may be best addressed by harvesting
- Where does harvesting hold particular value compared to other sources of technical data 15-20 minute presentations followed by open discussion of technical data needs for harvesting
Session Expectations
- Session 3 Sources of Materials Information on previously harvested materials and future harvesting opportunities
- Materials located at research and vendor facilities
- Decommissioning plants that may allow for future harvesting Short 5-10 minute presentations followed by open discussion Starting point for potential database of previously harvested materials and future harvesting opportunities
- Session 4 Harvesting Experience: Lessons Learned and Practical Aspects Improving future efforts with lessons learned from past programs
- Pitfalls to avoid and strategies to improve likelihood of success Practical perspective from non-researchers on how harvesting interfaces with the decommissioning process International decommissioning and harvesting experience 20-30 minute presentations followed by open discussion
Session Expectations
- Session 5 Future Harvesting Program Planning
- Technical and logistical information needed when planning a specific harvesting program Perspective from panel participants on the workshop Next steps and actions from workshop Potential areas of common interest for future harvesting programs Brief (5-10 minute) presentation from each panel member followed by general discussion

- Matt, Japanese colleagues involved in NPP concrete studiies have informed me that Chubu Electric Power Company (CEPCO) has designated Naoki Senada, CRIEPI, to represent the Hamaoka decommission effort at the Harvesting Workshop if he is invited.
As you know, Naoki is well connected throughout the Japanese nuclear industry and would also be a valuable panelist.

RE: Harvesting Workshop Sessions 3 & 4 Thanks everyone for participating today. I appreciate all the comments and suggestions and we'll adjust the agenda accordingly.
One follow-up: could DOE and EPRI identify who they expect their presenter to be for each of the 5 sessions?
Notes from today's call:
- Matt H. described general plans for workshop:
- Non-public, keep participation to around 30 individuals for more focused interactive discussion
- Goal is to have well-balanced discussion of harvesting, not sales pitches for specific projects or programs
- Sherry B. suggested fewer presentations with more panel discussion time
- Plan is for roughly 50-60% presentations and remaining time for discussion
- Sessions 1 and 5 should be primarily panel discussion
- Session 2:
- Question raised about covering metals, cables, and concrete
- Agreed that all presenters can cover all three types materials, hopefully just a few slides
- Suggest presenters focus on high-priority data needs from their organization's perspective
- Perhaps some background on what informs their priorities
- Session 3:
- Suggestions to include EnergySolutions, PWROG, Korea , Japan, and French presentation slots
- Emphasize to presenters to avoid "sales pitch," but please provide information on sources of materials
- Short ~10 min presentations on sources of materials with remaining time for discussion
- Hopefully use presented information as starting point for previously harvested materials database
- Session 4 :
- Longer (20-30 min) presentations focused on forward-looking lessons learned
- Suggestion to reach out to Exelon (Zion experience plus many operating facilities) if Dominion can't support
- Also consider Japan and France for international presentations Actions:
- Brian Berges provide Matt with PWROG contact
- Matt look into if affidavit would be needed for any proprietary information from EPRl/industry
- Matt update agenda for sessions 3 and 4 and finalize speakers Thanks!

There have been previous discussions between NRC, DOE, and EPRI on the workshop agenda overall to discuss what the workshop is t rying to accomplish and the best way to do so. Those conversations did not dig down into each session and make a final decision on exactly who will be the presenters and topics in each session. Internally here at NRC, we've worked to lay that out in the attached documents.
The purpose of this call is to discuss all the specifics of sessions 3 and 4 to identify the right presenters for each slot. This discussion could also lead to adding, eliminating or changing some of the planned presentations if you all have other ideas or suggestions. Our main goal is to have a well -balanced, comprehensive discussion of harvesting that will benefit all participants. We think working with you all up front to help plan and make decisions will give us a better workshop in the end. So please come with ideas and suggestions for sessions 3 and 4 on sources of materials and lessons learned/practical aspects of harvesting.

Regarding the recording of the meeting, I'm not a big fan of this, although I could probably live with it.
We've found that it actually takes more effort to go back through a recording of a meeting than to just
capture the important points as the meeting proceeds. Since this is meant to be an open exchange of information and ideas, concerns with recording might actually limit what participants are will to say.
That's my view.

RE: Harvesting Workshop DOE and EPRI Colleagues, We have pulled together a few slides here within NRC to cover the motivation and approach for the workshop as well as session expectations. The goal of these slides is to communicate our vision for the workshop; please feel free to review and provide comments if you have any.
To update on item #1 below, we are looking into the option of using GoToMeeting to allow additional participants (probably some NRC staff) to observe w ith very limited participation. If so, the GoToMeeting software allows recording of the slides and discussion without the involvement of NRC A/V, so the NRC multimedia consent form should not be needed. Just to remind, our purpose is simply to capture the discussion and action items to help with the meeting summary.
As long as all meeting participants are comfortable with this and it is technically doable, we will plan to use GoToMeeting and record the discussion through the software to aid in capturing valuable discussion insights in the meeting summary.
Thanks!

Harvesting Workshop DOE and EPRI Colleagues,
Thank you for participating in the discussion last week on the harvesting workshop sessions 3 and 4. We are making good progress on identifying speakers for the workshop . I wanted to bring a couple items to your attention and request your feedback:
- 1. We were thinking of doing a video recording of the workshop, simply to capture the discussion and action items to help with the meeting summary. We didn't have any other purpose other than to maximize documentation of the discussion for the benefit of the participants. When I reached out to the NRC A/V folks, I was advised that all speakers would need to sign the NRC multimedia consent form (attached) . Please take a look at this form and let us know if your speakers are comfortable with it. If not, we may not be able to take advantage of recording the workshop.
- 2. Could DOE and EPRI identify their planned speakers for each session? We're hoping to have the agenda and speakers firmed up by next week. As you know, there are slots for DOE and EPRI in each session .
Thanks and please let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Mike and Randy. I am working for three more days. I am also working with Matt Hiser from RES on a material harvesting program to get interesting materials from decommissioned plants. We have done a little homework and are now at a spot where we would find it useful to talk to one of you. Can you support a phone call?
If you can and you can do it this week then I would be able to participate. If you can't do it this week would you forward you contact information to Matt Hiser so he could contact you?
We are talking with Dominion about the possibility of harvesting pieces from Kewaunee. We are also talking with Fort Calhoun. The talks are completely informal and exploratory. NRC Research is interested in getting irradiated CASS and wrought stainless and thermally embrittled CASS. We are trying to figure out if Kewaunee or Fort Calhoun has any interesting material, where the definition of interesting is whether it is worth NRC spending piles of money to harvest. We know Kewaunee has some irradiated CASS, but we are not sure where it is located so don't know how irradiated. We know there is highly irradiated plate material in the reentrant corners of the shroud and we know the hot leg temperature, but we don't have any idea what gamma heating might look like. The interest in the plate material is swelling. We have other interests for other materials.
We are just in the exploratory mode of the project and wondered if you could spend a few minutes brainstorming with us.

Dear Ms. Cunningham:
Thank you for reaching out about the harvesting workshop. I am a materials engineer in the NRC's research office and am organizing the harvesting workshop for the NRC.
The workshop is being held at NRC headquarters on March 7-8, 2017. I've attached a few documents we've been sharing to publicize and describe the workshop. We have limited space available in the room , but are setting up a webin.ar for remote participation. I can be sure to include you on the distribution of webinar information.
The workshop has been coordinated with Rich Reister at DOE and Tom Rosseel at ORNL as well as staff from EPRI. Tom is presenting in session 3 on sources of materials, which includes previously harvested materials (such as those that may be in NFML) as well as future harvesting opportunities. We are hoping Tom's presentation will cover previously harvested materials that may be available within the DOE complex. Perhaps input of what materials are available at INL could be incorporated into Tom's presentation?
Again, thank you for your interest and please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks!

Dr. Chimi:
Thank you for your interest in the workshop. I have attached the workshop announcement and condensed agenda along with a few slides describing the motivation for the workshop and the expectations for each session. The workshop is divided into 5 sessions, each with a combination of presentations and discussion:
I. Session I will consist of short presentations and a panel discussion on the motivation for harvesting.
- 2. Session 2 will discuss data needs best met through harvesting.
- 3. Session 3 will discuss sources of materials for harvesting programs 4. Session 4 will discuss lessons-learned from past harvesting programs and practical aspects associated with harvesting.
- 5. Session 5 will attempt to summarize the workshop and planning a harvesting program, as well as discuss actions and next steps We would like to invite you to present in any of these sessions. For sessions l, 3, and 5, we are looking for brief 5-
IO minute presentations, so just a few slides at most on motivation for harvesting, sources of materials, and any future harvesting plans. For sessions 2 and 4, the presentations are anticipated to be longer, perhaps 20-30 minutes, covering data needs best addressed through harvesting (session 2) and lessons learned from previous harvesting experience (session 4).
For logistics, the workshop will be held at NRC's headquarters, which is at the White Flint Metro station:
Three White Flint North 11 60 I Landsdown Street North Bethesda, MD 20852 The nearest hotel is across the street: hltp://www.marriott.com/hotcls/travcl/wasbn-bcthcsda-north-marri-0tt-hotcl-and-confcrencc-ccntcr/ .

We are planning to reach out to Meg's Pl Bogdan who works on PWSCC and Pat's Pl in the steam generator area. We'd also like to reach out to Yiren for information on irradiated materials.
This is not expected to involve a large level of effort, but is designed to identify any low-hanging fruit in terms of previously harvested materials that may be available or of interest for future work.
I just wanted to make you aware that we were planning to make this outreach to ANL and confirm that you are OK with us contacting Yiren similar to Bogdan and the ANL SG staff.

Thank you for your email and your interest in the workshop. I've attached a presentation that has logistical information as well as more information on the overall workshop objectives and the format and objectives of each session.
You can see that we are planning five unique sessions as part of the workshop. Each session has a specific theme, or objective, as outlined below (and in more detail in the attachment).
- 1. Session 1 will conisist of short presentations and a panel discussion on the motivation for harvesting.
- 2. Session 2 will discuss data needs best met through harvesting.
- 3. Session 3 will discuss sources of materials for harvesting programs
- 4. Session 4 will discuss lessons-learned from past harvesting programs and practical aspects associated with harvesting.
- 5. Session 5 will attempt to summarize the workshop and planning a harvesting program, as well as discuss actions and next steps I think the talk you proposed might fit best in either sessions 2 or 3. Session 2 is focusing on data needs best met through harvesting. Session 3 is focusing on potential sources of materials or components. You can see that the focus is on relatively short talks to allow plenty of time for discussion. You could even split your talk to cover why you want to get irradiated concrete in session 2 and then address the attributes of Mihama in Session 3.
Given these options, can you provide me with your preference of one talk or two and provide title(s) so that we can add you to the agenda.

[External_Sender) RE: Harvesting Workshop
Dear Rob,
Thank you for the information you provided to me on the harvesting workshop that will be he ld at the NRC Headquarters next month.
I would like to attend this workshop, and, if possible, give a short talk. Westinghouse is in the preliminary stages of communicating with Kansai in investigating the possibility of harvesting concrete from Mihama Unit 1 to analyze the irradiation effects on concrete. This topic (irradiation effects on concrete) has been an interest to various organizations particularly for long-term operation of nuclear power plants. The talk would be mainly to inform the attendees why we are interested in this work and why we are interested in the Mihama Unit 1 concrete.
Is there an attendance fee for the workshop? I would appreciate it if you could provide me any further information related to the workshop (I have the attached documents) and the possibility for my attendance and a short talk.

Thank you for contacting me about the workshop. The invitation is not open to the public and we are soliciting/inviting both talks and participants so that the workshop stays relatively small and focused. Having said this, it's fine to send the announcement and agenda to Kansai.
Please also be aware that we are already in contact with both JNRA (Kazu Sakamoto) and CRIEPI (Naoki Soneda) to coordinate Japanese participation. It would therefore be good for Kansai to coordinate with them if they are interested in attending or participating in the workshop. Kansai should also contact me as well if they are interested in participating or attending.

(External_Sender] RE: RE: Harvest ing Workshop Sessions 3 & 4 Hi Matt, Thanks very much for the information on this workshop. Let me confer with our folks, but I think we can provide some information on archived in-plant irradiated materials. Just to confirm, you are not looking for any unirradiated archive material information, correct? When I read the term "boneyard" in the meeting announcement I immediately think of the unirradiated archive material I know we do have Westinghouse storing for us licensees, but by the rest of the announcement I believe this is not what you are looking for.
Also, when would you need a final commitment by?

[EXTERNAL] RE: RE: Harvesting Workshop Sessions 3 & 4 Hi Jim and Heather:
NRC is working with EPRI and DOE to host a workshop on ex-plant materials harvesting in early March at NRC HQ in Rockville, MD. I have attached an announcement and condensed workshop agenda for your information and background.
One of the sessions we have pl.anned is on Sources of Materials, which includes archived materials from past harvesting programs as well as future harvesting opportunities. Brian suggested the PWROG may have information related to archive materials held by vendors that could be relevant to this discussion.
For this session, we are looking at short presentations (maybe 2-3 slides, 5-10 min) providing information on sources of harvested materials.
We would certainly appreciate any information on sources of harvested materials that the PWROG can provide or help compile. If you would like to attend the workshop and present, that could work or, if you're unable to attend, you could provide input to myself or EPRI that could be incorporated into our slides.
Thanks!

- Exercise caution. This is an EXTERNAL email. DO NOT open attachments or click links from unknown senders or unexpected email.***.
Thanks everyone for participating today. I appreciate all the comments and suggestions and we'll adjust the agenda accordingly.
One follow-up: could DOE and EPRI identify who they expect their presenter to be for each of the 5 sessions?
Notes from today's call:
- Matt H. described general plans for workshop:
- Non-public, keep participation to around 30 individuals for more focused interactive discussion
- Goal is to have well-balanced discussion of harvesting, not sales pitches for specific projects or programs
- Sherry B. suggested fewer presentations with more panel discussion time
- Plan is for roughly 50-60% presentations and remaining time for discussion
- Sessions 1 and 5 should be primarily panel discussion
- Session 2:
- Question raised about covering metals, cables, and concrete
- Agreed that all presenters can cover all three types materials, hopefully just a few slides
- Suggest presenters focus on high-priority data needs from their organization's perspective
- Perhaps some background on what informs their priorities
- Session 3:
- Suggestions to include EnergySolutions, PWROG, Korea , Japan, and French presentation slots
- Emphasize to presenters to avoid "sales pitch," but please provide information on sources of materials
- Short ~10 min presentations on sources of materials with remaining time for discussion
- Hopefully use presented information as starting point for previously harvested materials database
- Session 4:
- Longer (20-30 min) presentations focused on forward-looking lessons learned
- Suggestion to reach out to Exelon (Zion experience plus many operating facilities) if Dominion can't support
- Also consider Japan and France for international presentations
Actions:
- Brian Bergos provide Matt with PWROG contact
- Matt look into if affidavit would be needed for any proprietary information from EPRl/industry
- Matt update agenda for sessions 3 and 4 and finalize speakers Thanks!

There have been previous discussions between NRC, DOE, and EPRI on the workshop agenda overall to discuss what the workshop is trying to accomplish and the best way to do so. Those conversations did not dig down into each session and make a final decision on exactly who will be the presenters and topics in each session. Internally here at NRC, we've worked to lay that out in the attached documents.
The purpose of this call is to discuss all the specifics of sessions 3 and 4 to identify the right presenters for each slot. This discussion could also lead to adding, eliminating or changing some of the planned presentations if you all have other ideas or suggestions. Our main goal is to have a well-balanced, comprehensive discussion of harvesting that will benefit all participants. We think working w ith you all up front to help plan and make decisions will give us a better workshop in the end. So please come with ideas and suggestions for sessions 3 and 4 on sources of materials and lessons learned/practical aspects of harvesting.

RE: RE: RE: program on materials of decommissioned pressure vessels Hi Eric, I just wanted to follow up from Bob's email on our activities related to materials harvesting. As Bob said, this program is really just getting started and the focus is on identifying the right data gaps for long-term plant operation with available materials for harvesting. The genesis of the program here at NRC is the increasing number of plants shutting down in the U.S. and the desire to take advantage of the available materials. However, we're interested in any opportunities where harvesting makes sense, whether U.S. or international.
This current effort at NRC is looking at harvesting more broadly than just RPV materials. We are also interested in reactor internals, cables, and concrete, which have been identified as key technical issues for extended operation. We are initially taking a detailed look at the data gaps that can best be addressed by harvesting (as opposed to simulated or accelerated aging) and then are hoping to build on that with a workshop to discuss the challenges and benefits of harvesting. We'd like to have both domestic and international participation in this workshop as well as a range of perspectives, including researchers, regulators, industry, and decommissioning specialists. Ideally, from this workshop everyone would come away with a
better idea of what it takes to run successful harvesting program and a better idea of what materials are available.
I will certainly keep you on my list as an interested participant as we get closer to organizing this workshop. It is looking like March of next year alongside NRC's Regulatory Information Conference, which draws a large number of U.S. and international participants, may be the right time.
Thanks!

[External_Sender) RE: RE: program on materials of decommissioned pressure vessels Hello Bob, Thank you for replying so efficiently.
We are certainly open to participate in the workshop that Matt Hiser will organize later this year and see how we eventually also can make our contribution to this event: we have BR2 and labs to test and analyze. Rachid Chaouadi, in charge of our RPV-programs and I will sit together in the coming days to discuss. We will carefully analyze the conceptual scoping proposal that you included. The pudding is there, the proof is in the eating, so LTO can be served by the studies of decommissioned materials.
The Western world is all-over ciutting on staff and investments in the nuclear field, and we are also not spared from this, but we have the tradition to try and go ahead to pursue our goals, so we remain positive.
They must allow people at USN RC to retire young!? Hopefully you can, as US-tradition demonstrates, still remain into the business somehow, although life has different chapters and each of them have its value.
Although I do not know your collegues yet, we are interested to meet them to go forward in this matter.

RE: RE: program on materials of decommissioned pressure vessels Hi Eric, Our plans are rudimentary at this time. We have ideas but the current state of our program is somewhere between conceptual and exploratory. I've copied Matt Hiser on this email and he is involved in a current project to identify what types of materials would be of interest when harvesting from retired plants. He is planning a workshop in late fall/early winter and I am sure he would like you to attend or participate in some way.
Dave and I met with Jan Bens in March and after that put together a conceptual scoping proposal and I have attached that.
The NRG is cutting back on staff and budget, but harvesting materials from decommissioned plants has always enjoyed great interest and priority from senor level management, so it should not really be very difficult to secure funding, but there is no current funding.
We met with NRA (Japan) this week and they are very interested in our nebulous plans too.
I am retiring soon, so Dave Rudland or Matt Hiser is likely to be the long term point of contact on this project Robert Hardies Senior Level Advisor for Materials Engineering Division of Engineering Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Office Phone 301 415-5802 Cell! ....... let>)(~) .

Dear Bob,
dear Dave,
Unfortunately I missed Dave at the PVP meeting.
My mail discussion with Tom Rosseel indicated that there is a US program on the Zion material, but I reckon this is under ORNL leadership, and that this is the only material that is under future investigation. Does this mean that USN RC is not involved?
Does USN RC have a description of the conceptual program you mention Bob? I was asked to have a meeting with our Regulatory Body next week, but I am still a bit puzzled on how things might be organized/looked at from US-side. It would be good to understand your approach .

RE: program on materials of decommissioned pressure vessels
Dear Eric,
Of course I remember you. Mark has kept me posted on your rapid career arc. It is great to hear from you again.
The NRC does not have an active program. Instead I would call it a conceptual program. We would like to recover some materials from retired plants. Jan Bens met with us last April and indicated there was interest in Belgium to do the same.
We have also met with the Swiss, who indicate they have similar goals.
Dave Rudland is currently the Branch Chief in our Office of Research who is most likely to be heading up this activity. He will be at the PVP meeting. Perhaps you two could arrange to meet there.

[External_Sender) program on materials of decommissioned pressure vessels Importance: High
Dear Bob,
I wonder whether you still know me after so many years of silence ... I was quite active in ASTM on RPV-issues and still today the subject is very close to my heart.
Since more than ten years now I became the Director-General of the Belgian Nuclear Research Centr,e, SCK.CEN in Mol, Belgium. As this Centre is the only one in Belgium and covers most nuclear subjects from A to Z, I still spend a little bit of my time to RPV's.
Most work is done by Rachid Chaouadi whom you have met before also. I also know you are well aware of the Doel3/Tihange2 Belgian NPP-situation and of course USN RC has followed it closely. I still have a lot of contacts with Mark Kirk, I guess working in your team.
The reason of this email is that I am looking for information on how to participate in the work that the US is planning/executing today on decommissioned RPV's. Our regulatory body and TSO would support this kind of activity and of course also from the viewpoint of our NPP's and the Centre, we have an interest. Moreover, we still have the BR2 reactor fully operational and our state-of-the-art labs. These are interesting tools to use besides the elaborate experience our teams have on RPVs.
So, my question is simple: can we, and if yes how, participate in the ongoing US decommissioned RPV program. Whom do I need to get in touch with, what are the conditions, are there any meetings where we cou ld participate?
I leave on Saturday for the PVP meeting in Vancouver. Rachid comes later also to the meeting in Chicago.
Hope to hear from you soon,
- Kindly, Eric.

RE: QUERY - DIGGING INTO THE PAST TO PREPARE FOR THE FUTURE?
Interesting thought Mike. We've got a program that is looking at harvesting materials from LWR plants to provide information to continue to support long-term operation (right now out to 80 years). We've never really thought about including ANLWR harvesting opportunities as a way to prepare us for potential licensing of an ANLWR.
The first step would be to contact the University to see what possibilities exist.

QUERY - DIGG ING INTO THE PAST TO PREPARE FOR THE FUTURE?
Good morning. Yesterday's edition of The Energy Daily featured an article about the decommissioning of the sodium fast reactor at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville. DOE provided a $10.5M grant to the University to pay for the decommissioning of the reactor, which
GE operated from 1969 to 1972 to test Plutonium breeder reactor technology. The reactor operated under a consortium called the Southwest Atomic Energy Associates comprised of 17 electric utilities in the Southwest Power Pool , as well as nuclear agencies in Europe. Are we extracting operating experience and safety insights from this project to help us prepare for potential licensing of a sodium fast reactor?
In other news, I had the opportunity to digest the several page summary of last week's GSAR meeting . However, the summary contains so many acronyms and initialisms that I need someone to translate the highlights for me. Can you send Steve down to translate and share insights? I'll need a basic (1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />) overview of the technology sometime to ensure that I understand the concept of operations, design basis, and safety terrain for this technology .

Hi Pat, I don't know exactly, but my impression is the KM NUREGs are more for legacy issues or topics where it is a compilation of previous information into a format that could be digested by a new staff to come up to speed. For example, it looks like the ones to date have topics like Brown's Ferry Fire, TMI, Davis-Besse, defense-in-depth, etc.
I don't know that that really fits what the PNN L report is, but I could be wrong on my definition of a KM NUREG.

RE: QUERY - DIGG ING INTO THE PAST TO PREPARE FOR THE FUTURE?
Thanks Rob, I briefly read NUREG KM-0007 and looks to me we need talk w ith I. K. Madni about what news with information about SEFOR and NRC ARRP part to Materials Analysis.
Southwest Experimental Fast Oxide Reactor SEFOR used mixed oxide fuel (MOX) w ith sod ium coolant, was clad w ith stainless stee l, and operated at 20 MWt. It did not produce e lectricity. The core consisted of I 09 fuel assemblies about 3 centimeters ( I inch) in d iameter and 9 1 centimeters (36 inches) long. The inlet temperature was 37 1 degrees C and outlet was 438 degrees C. It was constructed to test oxide-fueled sodium-cooled reactors, in particular the effect of core therma l expansion and reactivity feedback associated with oxide fuel heatup during accident conditions leading to stable core conditions. This was successfully demonstrated.
JNote to requester: The red text is black text in the NUREG.
The deactivated faci lity (fuel and coolant removed) was acquired by the University of Arkansas in 1977. l t was used to calibrate equipment and as a research tool for graduate students.
SEFOR was designated a national nuclear historic landmark by the American Nuclear Society in 1986, the same year the university stopped using the facil ity.
ln 2009 and 20 l O characterization studies were conducted by the University of Arkansas for cleaning up the site.
8.1.3 NRC Advanced Reactor Research Plan (ARRP)
Previously, 1. K. Madni, one of the authors of this report, prepared input on LMRs for inclusion in the NRC's advanced reactor research plan (Ref. 11). That input addressed infrastructure needs 8-3 NUREG/KM-0007 for LMRs in the area of reactor systems analysis, wh ich included T/H analysis, nuclear analysis, and severe-accident and source-term analysis. For accident analysis, those events that fall within the licensing basis ( design-basis events) and beyond-design-basis events (severe accidents) were included. This input for LMRs is included as Appendix F to this report.
- 3. Materials Analysis, pages F-16, 17, 18
Background
A key research area important to safety is the behavior of sodium coolant and the materials performing the structural, barrier, and retention functions under normal and off-normal conditions expected in LMRs. Note to requester: The sentence "Those issues Purpose include 12 sentensis .." was not in the original Some of the issues for LMR materials analysis are highlighted !below... NUREG. After the previous sentence, the NUREG lists the 12 issues, that are not included here.
High-Temperature Materials. A paper on NRC and Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards (ACRS) Technical Issues Relating to the Clinch River Breeder Reactor (CRBR) presented at the June 2006 ANS meeting's technical session on "High Temperature Design, Methodology and Regulatory issues" focused on technical issues and safety concerns with high-temperature metals for fast LMRs (Ref. 21). Those issues include 12 sentensis ..
Other Material Issues. Materials issues include (I) fuel-cladding constituent interdiffusion behavior for minor actinide (MA) bearing fuels, (2) developmen t of high-strength steels for use in structures and piping to improve safety and economics, and (3) improved materials for recycling systems.
Structural Materials. Chrome ferritic steels, instead of austenitic steels, are viewed as promising structural materials for future plant components, because of their superior strength and thermal properties at elevated temperatures, including high thermal conductivity and low thermal expansion coefficient. With these materials, more compact structural designs are foreseen. On the other hand, some drawbacks have to be overcome w ith these materials.
They include degradation of ductility and toughness during high-temperature service.
Weldability is also a concern. An elevated-temperature materia l-strength database should be established for design-by-analysis purposes.3 From: Tregoning, Robert Sent: Thursday, September 29, 2016 8:56 AM To: Hiser, Matthew <Matthew. Hiser@nrc.gov>; Purtscher, Patrick <Patrick.Purtscher@nrc.gov>

FW: QUERY- DIGGING INTO THE PAST TO PREPARE FOR THE FUTURE?
Guys:
So if we were going to try to get any materials from a SFR, these would be the questions I would ask (in sequential order):
- 1. Is it even possible to get materials given the decommissioning plan and schedule?
- 2. If so, what materials and components would be available?
- 3. Could we get the materials as part of the decommissioning plan, and potentially, after decon? That is, could we get these at minimal cost given that DOE is funding the decommissioning?
- 4. How closely do the materials and environment match what is anticipated to be used if a SFR would come in for licensing within the next 10 years?
- 5. How closely does the design and operation of the RTR match what is anticipated for a SFR?
Thoughts? What other questions would need to be asked? While I think this is a bit of a long-shot, we should probably at least do some initial probing and thinking .....

Good morning. Yesterday's edition of The Energy Daily featured an article about the decommissioning of the sodium fast reactor at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville. DOE provided a $10.5M grant to the University to pay for the decommissioning of the reactor, which GE operated from 1969 to 1972 to test Plutonium breeder reactor technology. The reactor operated under a consortium called the Southwest Atomic Energy Associates comprised of 17 electric utilities in the Southwest Power Pool, as well as nuclear agencies in Europe. Are we extracting operating experience and safety insights from this project to help us prepare for potential licensing of a sodium fast reactor?
In other news, I had the opportunity to digest the several page summary of last week's GSAR meeting. However, the summary contains so many acronyms and initialisms that I need someone to translate the highlights for me. Can you send Steve down to translate and share insights? I'll need a basic (1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />) overview of the technology sometime to ensure that I understand the concept of operations, design basis, and safety terrain for this technology. Ed might similarly benefit from such an overview.

The NRC plans to leverage future. Prevailing questions are: How will AM be used in nuclear power plants, and year 2018. In 2017, industry prototyping efforts involved use of the direct metal ongoing research and evaluation of this technology being pertormed by Federal when? What is the regulatory infrastructure for determining how safe it is?

Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research is beginning to evaluate the technology to NRC areas of interest include the quality, properties, and structural performance of gain insight into any technical issues that must be addressed to assure safety and The NRC strategic plan will focus on topic areas of interest identified at the AM parts, including their inspectability. The service pertormance and aging reliability of specific DMLM-produced components that may be accepted by the Additive Manufacturing for Reactor Materials and Components public meeting: degradation of AM parts are critical. It will be essential to compare the NRC, including design, precursor materials, finished material properties, structural performance of parts from AM and those from conventional manufacturing integrity, nondestructive evaluation, and quality assurance.

Re: 'Autopsy' of Oyster Creek Nuclear Power Plant Matthew/Amy, I don't know if you saw it or not, but Beyond Nuclear and other groups issued a press release earlier in the week calling for components from Oyster Creek to be harvested:
(http://www.beyond nuclear.orq/home/2018/4/ 10/qroups-cal I-for-oyster-creek-reactor-to-be-autopsied-after-c. htm I ). There was also news coverage that dealt with the request:

RE: Request: Need a couple of bullets on Harvesting workshop Hi Carol ,
I hope to share it among participants for their feedback by next week and finalize it by the end of June. Yes, the workshop summary will not be publicly available, consistent with the non-public workshop (which was DOE and EPRl 's strong preference).
Thanks!

RE: Request: Need a couple of bullets on Harvesting workshop Hi Carol, Here's our input for the harvesting workshop (Pat, feel free to chime in with any other tweaks):
Participants discussed the motivation for harvesting, data needs best addressed by harvesting, sources of materials for harvesting and future harvesting program planning.
o Workshop discussion emphasized the need for a clearly defined objective to justify the level of effort and demonstrate value.
o Past harvesting experience shows valuable technical information can be gained, but harvesting efforts are expensive and complex.
- Workshop summary report will be shared among meeting participants. Future activities from the workshop include cooperative discussion of prioritized data needs for harvesting and potential development of a sources of materials database.
Please let us know if you need any other input or assistance © Thanks!

RE: Request for Response: Battelle Inventory, PARTRIDGE-Ill, and Experimental Leak-Rate I again wanted to thank you guys for providing t he information you did on t he materials available at Battelle. It is very helpful to our harvesting project here at NRC to have this information.
I just wanted to follow up from our ema il exchanges a few months ago on the Battelle inventory to see if it would be easy for you to add a few details to the information you provided. If not, that is no problem, but if it would be easy to identify and add the follow information to the inventory you provided, t hat would be very helpful to us:
- 1. any more detailed information on the materials beyond just the carbon or stainless designation. CMTR info wou Id be ideal, but even just any more idea of what grade of steel/composition would be useful.
- 2. plant/system information from w here the pieces were harvested
- 3. References to reports where these pieces/components were used in past research, such as NUREGs for instance Again, we appreciate the time and effort you have put into this inventory and look forward to seeing if you can easily find any of these other pieces of informat ion to fill in the picture more fully.
Th anks!

In terms of information, everything you provided was helpful. As we looked at this, there were two other pieces of information that would be of interest if easy to find. The first is whether you have any more detailed information on the materials beyond just the carbon or stainless designation. CMTR info would be ideal, but even j ust any more idea of what grade of steel/composition would be useful. The second piece of information of interest would be plant/system information from where the pieces were harvested. Again, if any of this information is fairly easily identified and shared, that would be great. If not, no worries - we appreciate the effort you put in to document what you sent.

I have another suggestion for you --- I think it wou ld be a great idea to also have this as a presentation for IAEA PLiM this Fall. At the last SMIRT, there were summary papers of workshops like th is that were very valuable. Condensing w isdom of many people into a short presentation - but you get a refereed article out of it. I think the short abstracts have to be done soon (today?) so you might want to check with Rob or Carol about th is.

Revised Descriptions for RIC posters
- Steve, Can you please review and approve the attached revised Description paragraphs for the RIC posters on Additive Manufacturing (#6) and Harvesting (#8)? These have been revised as follows:
- 6AM Revised title (shortened to fit poster template)
Revised text to match what is now on the significantly-revised poster
[Note, the text on the RIC website now is incorrect. The text shown for poster #6 should be with poster #8. RIC staff have been asked by email to change it, but the text remains. Perhaps a replacement Form 1102 will precipitate the needed corrections.]
- 8 Harvesting Revised title (shortened to fit poster template)
Revised text to reflect QTE recommended edits.
I was advised by Brennet Warren on the RIC Team that posters #6 & #8 were not selected for OGC review.
The revised posters were submitted to QTE, with a copy to the RIC Team, this morning. The revised Description forms must also go to QTE for editing before the revised titles and text can be uploaded for the conference program. Bren stressed that this was time-sensitive.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, Carol Carol E. Moyer Sr. Materials Engineer U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research MS: T-10A36 Washington, DC 20555-0001 carol.moyer@nrc.gov 301-415-2153

RE: Revised est imates and UNR Thanks, Raj.
Did you align with Matt H. on the harvesting scope as well as related FTEs and contract funds?
I have no additional technical comments on the draft UNR (It will need to go to QTE but that will be done at NRR.)
If Matt H. is OK with the FTEs and $s for the ex-plant harvesting task, I am OK with the rest.

Revised estimates and UNR Amy/Rob, I have added the development of the summary reports to the deliverable for Task 1 (brief addition). I have also revised the resource estimates by rolling the FTE for summary documents with the resources needs for Task 1.

After you make any changes, we can send to those who attended this AM meeting for comment or awareness. I w ill leave that to Steve.

Revised NRC-NRAJ 2016 Materials Meeting Agenda All:
Attached is the revised agenda for the NRC/NRAJ meeting in August. The only change is that the concrete aging and the metals aging portions of the agenda have been swapped so that the first technical topic is concrete. The concrete folks will have additional, more in-depth discussions after the morning of the 8th as a side-bar. Please let me know if there are any issues with this revised agenda. I'm still awaiting the following :
- 1. CMB identification of leads for their topics on the agenda.
- 2. NRAJ to identify their speakers for the various topics.
I'll send out a final agenda once 1 and 2 have been completed.
Thanks for your help, Rob

RE: Revised NRC-NRAJ 2016 Materials Meeting Agendla All:
I haven't looked at Pat's slides either, but I just want to stress the purpose of the CASS discuss.ion topic and all the topics housed under the Possible future collaboration section of the agenda. These talks are meant to be discussions of areas that we may want to work more closely with NRAJ to either exchange information or possibly do some actual collaborative research. Therefore, the presentations should be brief to provide an overview of current and recently completed activities, any current technical and regulatory gaps, and any proposed collaboration. With this in mind, the presentations shouldn't really be more than a handful (5 or so) slides.
For CASS I would provide a brief summary of the recent 4513 revision and upcoming testing at ANL to finish our CASS work, we could also indicate that we are finalizing a new NRC position on addressing irradiation effects on CASS and may be updating the provisions in the Grimes letter based on the latest 4513 information. Then we could list some current gaps such as fracture toughness of irradiated and thermal aged CASS between 0.5 to 5 dpa (or 10 dpa), effects of long-time aging (i.e., plant conditions versus accelerated aging for testing), etc. Then we could list some areas of possible cooperation such as data sharing (Omesh has been trying to get information from MHI for some time and we can bring this up again), use of ex-plant material for testing, joint irradiation testing, etc....
These are just my thoughts.
Rob

Harvesting of Aged Materials from Operating and Decommissioning Nuclear Power Plants Descriptio n: Description should be innovative, succinct, and include key elements such as purpose, learning objectives, focus areas, and/or take-away messages.
Recent plans to shut down a number of nuclear power plants (NPPs) provide opportunities for harvesting components that were exposed to light water reactor (LWR) environments. Harvesting can provide highly representative aged materials for research and, in some cases, may be the only practical source of representative aged materials to address high-priority issues. Harvesting can be expensive and time-consuming, which makes it essential to focus on technical needs with the highest importance and cooperate with multiple organizations whenever possible to optimally leverage resources. NRC is interested in engaging with other organizations to prioritize data needs for harvesting, identify areas of common interest, and develop a database for sources of materials for harvesting.

Harvesting of Aged Materials from Operating and Decommissioning Nuclear Power Plants
==
Description:==
Description should be innovative, succinct, and include key elements such as purpose, learning objectives, focus areas, and/or take-away messages.
Recent plans to shut down a number of nuclear power plants (NPPs) provide opportunities for harvesting components that were exposed to actual light water reactor (LWR) environments. Harvesting can provide highly representative aged materials for research and, in some cases, may be the only practical source of representative aged materials to address high-priority issues. Harvesting can be expensive and time-consuming, which makes it essential to focus on those technical needs with the highest importance and cooperate with multiple organizations whenever possible to optimally leverage resources. NRC is interested in engaging with other organizations to prioritize data needs for harvesting, identify areas of common interest, and develop a database for sources of materials for harvesting.
Presenter(s): If known, for each presenter, enter first and last name, position, division title and organization. If possible, list names in the order they will be presenting.

RE: RIC ePoster Approval: Harvesting of Aged Materials from Operating and Decommissioning Nuclear Power Plants Hi Steve, Thank you for reviewing this. I am OK with your version (attached). Do you want to run it by Chris and Brian via email or should I?
I think the poster development comes later (step 3 in the email at the bottom of this chain indicates they want to identify who will develop the poster by 12/1). However, I went ahead and threw our poster in the RIC template and have attached it as well. Feel free to share it with Chris and Brian as well.

RIC ePoster Approval: Harvesting of Aged Materials from Operating and Decommissioning Nuclear Power Plants We are pleased to inform you that the topic mentioned above has been approved as a Digital ePoster for the RIC 2018 program.
NEXT STEPS
- 1. Refine Title, Description, Information - Now is your opportunity to fine tune your eposter title, description information in preparation for publlication. (Please note that his is the version that will be published in conference materials and on the RIC website.)
Use the updated NRC Form 1102 located in the NRC Sharepoint Library (descripton field has been expanded). Please ensure all changes have been vetted through your division level management before submission to RICMST.Resource@nrc.gov (deadline for updated write-ups to RICMST by 12 noon on 11/27/2017)
- 2. Determine ePoster Format - As you develop your eposter, you might consider what format would be most useful (i.e., single slide or multi slide). Guidance for Determining the type of eposter template is located on RIC Central at http://drupal.nrc.gov/ric, under the "Digital Presentation (ePoster) Toolbox" tab.
- 3. Development of ePoster - Beginning this year the Graphics Team will no longer be developing ePosters for offices, rather, offices are now responsible for developing their ePosters. However, the Graphics Team is available to provide guidance through the process and will be hosting a meet/greet with ePoster developers to answer any questions you may have on the process. Graphics has created an ePoster template which is available for your use on RIC Central at http://drupal.nrc.gov/ric. (deadline for providing names of ePoster developer(s) and presenter(s) to RICMST 12/1/2017)
LOOKING FORWARD
- CAC information and guidance for creating your Digital ePoster, etc.
- Graphics meet and greet information.
We thank you for your participation and we look forward to working with you!
