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 objective of this task is to improve nuclear power plant worker radiation protection to allow workers to take effective action to control the course and consequences of an accident, as well as to keep exposures as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA) …
1
The objective of this task is to respond to the President's request for NRC participation in the Radiation Policy Council. ITEM IV.H.1: NRC PARTICIPATION IN THE RADIATION POLICY COUNCIL DESCRIPTION The Radiation Policy Council, a policy coordinating body …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background Operation of a LWR results in slow corrosion of the interior metal surfaces of the primary coolant system. The resulting corrosion products circulate through the reactor core and are activated by neutron flux from the …
1
DESCRIPTION At the time this issue was identified in NUREG-0371, [1] compliance with NEPA required that alternatives to a proposed Federal action be considered, and that required alternatives be balanced against the base case in terms of their associated …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background The safety concern of this NUREG-0371 [1] item deals with the consideration of alternatives to the basic design of nuclear power plants with the emphasis primarily on reduction of the vulnerability of reactors to …
1
DESCRIPTION This NUREG-0471 [1] task will develop more reliable models and associated computer capability than currently available to the staff for assessing the radiological consequences of accidents that could result in the releases of radioactivity …
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 Practice in health impact assessments at the time of identification of this issue was to convert radiation exposure estimates into estimates of health effects, such as cancer deaths, illness, and life shortening. However, the models that were …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background On April 7, 1980, Arkansas Nuclear One (ANO) Units 1 and 2 experienced a significant event resulting from a loss of offsite power. Although both units were safely shut down, the analysis and evaluation of the event …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background In an evaluation of INPO/NSAC Significant Operating Experience Report 81-17, [1] the operators at Fort Calhoun determined that the configuration of their plant made it susceptible to the possibility that all AFW supply …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background In October 1982, the Executive Director for Operations appointed the Committee to Review Safety Requirements at Power Reactors (CRSRPR) to review U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) security requirements at nuclear …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This issue was recommended [1] for prioritization by DSI after a review of the AEOD engineering evaluation report (AEOD/E325) [2] on vapor binding of the AFW pumps at H.B.Robinson Unit 2. Further AEOD study of the event …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background Over the past several years, the NRC staff has noted an unacceptably large number of overexposures and uncontrolled exposures associated with pressurized water reactor cavity entries while incore detectors were withdrawn. …
1
DESCRIPTION The loss of all feedwater event at Davis-Besse on June 9, 1985, resulted in the formation of an NRC project team to investigate the event. The team's findings were published in NUREG-1154 [1] and were subsequently reviewed by DL/NRR. As a …
1
DESCRIPTION In 1985, operating experience as well as staff and industry studies indicated that AFW systems continued to fail at a high rate. These studies also indicated that plants with similar AFW system reliabilities (as calculated in accordance with …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This issue was identified as an alternative approach to the Finding 15 recommendation [1] discussed in Issue 125.I.5, "Safety Systems Tested in All Conditions Required by DBA," which states that "[t]horough integrated …
1
DESCRIPTION The TMI-2 Safety Advisory Board was established to provide the licensee, General Public Utilities Nuclear Corporation, with a qualified, independent appraisal of the cleanup of TMI-2, with particular emphasis on the assurance of public and …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background At 6:53 a.m. on February 7, 1993, an intruder drove into the TMI site owner-controlled area, through a gate into the protected area of Unit 1, and crashed through a roll-up door on the turbine building. TMI security …
1
DESCRIPTION NRC regulatory requirements include the estimation of individual offsite dose from the design basis LOCA. The fission product source term in TID-14844 [1] which is referenced by the regulations, has historically been used for this application. …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This GI was proposed [1] in response to a concern raised by the ACRS in its May 21, 2004, report on the resolution of certain NUREG-1740 [2] items. The ACRS recommended that the staff develop a mechanistic understanding …
