The objectives of this task were to: (1) upgrade the requirements and procedures for nuclear power plants operator and supervisor licensing to assure that safe and competent operators and senior operators are I charge of the day-to-day operation of …
1
The objectives of this task were to: (1) establish and sustain a high level of realism in the training and retraining of operators, including dealing with complex transients involving multiple permutations and combinations of failures and errors; and (2) …
1
The objectives of this task were to: (1) Improve licensee safety performance and ability to respond to accidents by upgrading the licensee groups responsible for radiation protection and plant operation in such areas as staff size; education and …
1
The objective of this task was to improve the quality of procedures to provide greater assurance that operator and staff actions were technically correct, explicit, and easily understood for normal, transient, and accident conditions. The overall content, …
1
The objective of this task was to improve the ability of nuclear power plant control room operators to prevent accidents or cope with accidents if they occur by improving the information provided to them. ITEM I.D.1: CONTROL ROOM DESIGN REVIEWS This item …
1
The objectives of this task were to: (1) increase the capability of shift crews to operate facilities in a safe and competent manner by assuring that training for plant changes and off-normal events was conducted; and (2) review the comprehensiveness of …
1
The objectives of this task were to: (1) decrease reliance on the emergency core cooling system (ECCS) for events other than LOCAs; (2) ensure that the ECCS design basis reliability and performance were consistent with operational experience; (3) reach a …
1
The objective of this task was to improve the reliability and capability of nuclear power plant systems for removing decay heat and achieving safe shutdown conditions following transients and under post-accident conditions. ITEM II.E.3.1: RELIABILITY OF …
1
The objective of this task was to provide instrumentation to monitor plant variables and systems during and following an accident. Indications of plant variables and status of systems important to safety are required by the plant operator (licensee) …
1
The objectives of this task were to perform systems reliability analyses and to effect changes in emergency operating procedures and operator training to improve the capability of plants to mitigate the consequences of the small-break LOCAs and …
1
TASK III.D.1: RADIATION SOURCE CONTROL The objective of this task is to perform evaluations to establish additional design features that should be included in the rulemaking proceeding of Item II.B.8. The purpose of these evaluations is to identify design …
1
The objective of this task was to improve public radiation protection in the event of a nuclear power plant accident by improving (1) radioactive effluent monitoring, (2) the dose analysis for accidental releases of radioiodine, tritium, and carbon-14, …
1
The objectives of this task are: (1) to improve and expand the NRC training program for the technical staff and resident inspectors, including, where appropriate, hands-on training; and (2) to establish a program to provide technically qualified …

DESCRIPTION The issue was raised after the occurrence of various incidents of water hammer that involved steam generator feedrings and piping, emergency core cooling systems, RHR systems, containment spray, service water, feedwater, and steam lines. The …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background Prior to May 1978, tests conducted by GE showed that the presence of steam and/or increased pressure in and above the upper core region of BWRs could adversely affect the distribution of flow from certain types of core …
1
DESCRIPTION Numerical reliability goals and methods of analysis have not been established by the NRC. The current basis for plant licensing continues to be NRC regulations which require, among other things, that the consequences of a LOCA be suitably …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This NUREG-0471 [1] item concerned staff positions [2] BTP EISCB 18 and BTP RSB 6-11 which required physical locking out of electrical sources to specific MOVs in the ECCS. The existing staff positions established the …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This NUREG-0471 [1] item involved the development of a time criterion for safety-related operator actions (SROA), including a determination of whether or not automatic actuation was to be required. At the time this issue …
1
DESCRIPTION A number of applicants for operating licenses have been performing sump tests to demonstrate ECCS operability during the recirculation phase following a postulated loss-of-coolant accident. These tests have shown that vortex formation is not …
1
DESCRIPTION Most vendors, in the conduct of internal audits of emergency core cooling performance computer codes, discovered errors in coding and/or logic which had significant effects on the prediction results of approved models. This NUREG-0471 [1] task …
1
DESCRIPTION This NUREG-0471 [1] task involves the maintenance and improvement of calculational capabilities for assessing doses to individuals from radiation and radioactive effluents from normal operation and from radioactive releases from postulated …
1
DESCRIPTION Compilation of occupational radiation exposure reports from operating reactors has shown that exposures to station and contractor personnel have generally been increasing over the past 7 years for both PWRs and BWRs. The overriding problem at …
1
DESCRIPTION This NUREG-0471 [1] task involves evaluating information from semiannual operating reports, inplant measurements program and topical reports, and revisions to models for calculating releases of radioactive materials in effluents from PWRs and …
