Review of the Emergency Planning Sensitivity Project Title: Study for Seabrook 3. WORK TO BE PERFORMED AND EXPECTED RESULTS (Cont.) Task 6: Report Preparation and Follow-on Effort P. A final report will be prepared based on the results of Tasks 1 5. In addition, any follow-on effort in terms of resolution of issues will be provided under this task. The final report will be issued on 12/31/86 and will address BNL's recommendations on procedures, testing or design modifications, to reduce the probability of containment bypass in conjunction with a severe accident. Estimated Level of Effort: (F87) 2.5 pam Estimated Completion Date: September 30, 1987 Level of Effort and Performance The estimated total level of effort is 19 professional staff-months over a period of 14 months. b. Meetings and Travel It is expected that there will be two trips, one to the Seabrook plant site and one to UE and C's offices in Philadelphia, PA, for three BNL engineers each lasting 2-3 days. In addition, three one-day meetings in Washington, DC are anticipated. One meeting may require 6 BNL engineers, the other two will require 2 BNL engineers. C. NRC Furnished Materials NRC will provide all documents prepared by the applicant or its consultants which are to be reviewed by BNL. 4. DESCRIPTION OF ANY FOLLOW-ON EFFORTS Not applicable. 5. RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS BNL has ongoing efforts for MRR/NRC in the area of severe accident analysis and risk assessment. These include peer review of plant-specific, industry-sponsored probabilistic risk assessments. To date BNL has reviewed various aspects of the following PRAB: Big Rock Point, Indian Point, Zion, Limerick, GESSAR, Shoreham, Oconee-3, Millstone-3, and Seabrook. BNL also has ongoing efforts for RE8/NRC dealing with severe core damage, fission product release and transport to the environment. Ia particular, BNL will verify the Source Term Code Package and the calculations to be performed as part of the updating by SARP of nuclear accident risk (MUREG-1150). In addition, BNL staff are evaluating uncertainties in source term estimates (FIN A-3286). Finally, BNL staff are providing assistance to the NRC staff in developing a technical basis for offsite emergency preparedness under PIN A-3268.

REPORTING REQUIREMENTS Technical Reports Six copies of all technical reports which are required for the program shall be submitted to the NRC Project Manager. Business Letter Reports A monthly business letter report will be submitted by the 20th of the month to Mr. Goutam Bagchi, NRC Project Manager, with copies provided to the Director, Division of PWR Licensing A, Attn: D. Florvante and M. Kaltman, NRR. The report will iden tify the title of the project, the FIN, the Principal Investigator, the period of performance, and the reporting period and will contain 2 sections as follows: Project Status Section 1) A listing of efforts completed during the period, milestones reached, or if missed, an explanation provided. 2) Any problems or delays encountered or anticipated and recommendations 3) A summary of progress to date. 4) A brief summary of plans for the next reporting period. b. Financial Status Section BNL will provide the personnel time expenditures and the amount of funds expended (costed) by category during the period and total cumulative year-to-date as follows: Review of the Emergency Planning Sensitivity Project Title: Study for Seabrook 7. SUBCONTRACTOR INFORMATION BNL does not intend to subcontract any portion of this work. In the event a subcontract is anticipated, BNL will notify MRC before it is initiated. 8. NEW CAPITAL EQUIPMENT REQUIRED None. 9. SPECIAL FACILITIES REQUIRED Mone. 10. CONFLICT OF INTEREST INFORMATION There are neither significant contractual nor organizational relationships of the Department of Energy, BNL and employees, or expected subcontractors or consultants on this proposal, with industries regulated by the NRC and suppliers thereof that give rise to an apparent or actual conflict of interest. 11.

I have reviewed your proposed memo to H. Denton on the Seabrook review and provided comments in the form of markups to V. Noonan on August 8. It is important to decide what direction NRC is going to take on this issue before a detailed technical review can start. A decision chart set up in the form of three questions is attached for your consideration. I would recommend that you assemble a small group to assess the potential approaches to the review. Four individuals, one from each, PWRL, USRO, IE and OGC, could do the job in about two weeks. Our representative is Len Soffer, please feel free to contact him directly. CC: H. Denton Themis Speis |
