Purpose
The purpose of this meeting is to continue dialogue on recommendations contained in the Nuclear Energy Institute’s white paper on Spent Fuel Performance Margins dated November 8, 2019 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML19318D971). This workshop will build upon discussions held during the January 22, 2020, public workshop (see summary at ADAMS Accession No. ML20028F277), the March 25-26, 2020, public workshop (ADAMS Accession No. ML20077J441) and April 15-16, 2020, public workshop (ADAMS Accession No. ML20126G388) and will focus on four technical areas: crosswalks, prioritization and linkages to Phenomenon Identification and Ranking Tables (PIRTs), a revised Thermal Recommendation Issue Resolution Plan (RIRP) as a function of safety goal and gross rupture definitions, graded approach reviews and alternative licensing strategies for shielding reviews.

Comments
The goal of the workshop is to align on problem statements, requested regulatory products, and next steps for each. In this meeting, NEI will discuss crosswalks, prioritization and linkages to PIRTs. The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) will and industry discuss a revised Thermal RIRP reflecting integrated Recommendations IV-1 through IV-5 as a function of safety goal and gross rupture definitions. NRC will discuss graded acceptance reviews (Recommendation II-1). Also, NRC will discuss alternative licensing strategies for shielding reviews.
