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 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 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
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 Historical Background The Class 1E power sources provide the electric power for the plant systems that are essential to reactor shutdown, containment isolation, reactor core cooling, containment heat removal or are otherwise essential in …
1
DESCRIPTION By letter dated June 18, 1975, licensees of operating reactor facilities were sent a preliminary copy of a staff paper, "Guidance for Proposed License Amendments Relating to Refueling," and "Refueling Information Request Form." The purpose was …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This NUREG-0371 [1] item involves the development of consistent and formalized acceptance criteria regarding the conversion to higher density storage racks (increased storage capacity) in existing spent fuel storage …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This issue is documented in NUREG-0371 [1] and addresses the adequacy of safety-related DC power supplies which was questioned by a nuclear consultant in a letter to the ACRS in April 1977 (NUREG-0305, [2] Attachment B). …
1
DESCRIPTION This issue was raised in NUREG-0371 [1] following a series of events at operating plants that involved the offsite power systems. These events indicated that the reliability of the preferred source of emergency power might have been less than …
1
DESCRIPTION The complete loss of AC electrical power to the essential and nonessential switchgear buses in a nuclear power plant is referred to as a "Station Blackout." Because many safety systems required for reactor core decay heat removal are dependent …
1
DESCRIPTION The design criteria and methods for the seismic qualification of mechanical and electrical equipment in nuclear power plants underwent significant changes during the course of the licensing of commercial nuclear power plants. Consequently, it …
1
DESCRIPTION Some prototype electrical penetration failures have occurred to date. In addition, failures of low voltage penetration modules have occurred at a licensed facility. It was originally postulated that failures of the low voltage penetration …
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 Historical Background Individual reactor fuel rods sometimes fail during normal operations and many fuel rods are expected to fail during severe accidents. To ensure that these fuel failures do not result in unacceptable releases to the …
1
DESCRIPTION This NUREG-0471 [1] task covers a spectrum of technical efforts related to the staff review of LMFBR fuel designs. The efforts include: (1) evaluating licensing requirements for the behavior of stainless steel cladding and hexcans in an LMFBR …
1
DESCRIPTION The seismic qualification of complex electrical and mechanical components has undergone rapid changes in the past several years. Revisions in industry standards (IEEE 344) have resulted in the need to audit the qualification programs of NSSS …
1
DESCRIPTION NRC environmental information needs for licensing fall into the categories of: (1) detailed site-specific investigations at a preferred site, and (2) reconnaissance level information to support alternative site assessment and selection, …
1
DESCRIPTION The effects of entrainment on phytoplankton and zooplankton populations are often minimal and occasionally beneficial. Numerous studies of the effects of entrainment on plankton organisms, phytoplankton, and zooplankton have shown impacts to …
