DESCRIPTION Historical Background PORVs and block valves were originally designed as non-safety components in the reactor pressure control system for use only when plants are in operation. The block valves were installed because of expected leakage from …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This issue was initiated to address concerns raised by the Union of Concerned Scientists. (References [1] , [2] , and [3] .) The purposes for including this issue as a generic issue are to: (1) provide brief background …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background Once-through steam generators (OTSGs) are a feature unique to B&W reactor designs. Main feedwater is injected from a header, located at approximately mid-elevation of the OTSG, into an annular downcomer region. As the …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This issue was raised [1] in March 1985 to address the staff's concern that there were no requirements for dynamic qualification testing or dynamic surveillance testing of large bore hydraulic snubbers (> 50 kips load …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This issue was identified in a RRAB memorandum [1] in March 1985 and addressed the possibility of relay contact chatter during a seismic event and its resulting effect upon safety and safety-related electrical control …

DESCRIPTION Steam generator overfill and its consequences have received staff and industry attention because of the frequency and severity of overfill events. Over the years, a number of issues have been raised concerning steam generator overfill …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This issue was identified [1] by NRR when concerns were expressed that the seismic loading on equipment and pipe-mounted components may have been underestimated. These concerns could be divided into two sub- issues: …

In resolving GSIs over the years, the staff generally found it necessary to make assumptions and establish limitations on the scope of the issues. As a result of its review of the resolution of some GSIs, the ACRS expressed concerns that the assumptions …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This issue was identified when it was believed [1] that the validity of steam generator (SG) tube leak and rupture analyses could be affected by resonance vibrations in steam generator tubes during steam line break …

DESCRIPTION Historical Background Beginning in the early-1980s, the NRC sponsored the development of a Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis (PSHA) methodology by LLNL. For the purpose of conducting a systematic evaluation of the licensing criteria for …
