NRC Information Notice 2003-07, Water in the Vent Header/Vent Line Spherical Junctions,

dated June 24, 2003

The NRC is issuing this information notice to inform addressees that unanticipated standing

water was found inside the spherical junctions (“bowls”) of a Mark I primary containment (torus)

at a BWR. The concern is that during a loss of coolant accident this standing water might

cause the vent system thrust loads inside containment to exceed design basis limits. It is

expected that recipients will review the information for applicability to their facilities and consider

actions, as appropriate, to avoid similar problems. 

NRC Regulatory Issue Summary 2003-12, Clarification of NRC Guidance for Modifying

Protective Actions, dated June 24, 2003

Staff Issues Ginna License Renewal Draft Supplemental Generic Environmental Impact

Statement for Public Comment

On Wednesday, June 25, 2003, the staff issued draft Supplement 14 to NUREG-1437,

“Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants,

Supplement 14, Regarding R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant” for public comment. The draft

supplement includes the staff’s preliminary analysis that considers and weighs the

environmental effects of the proposed action, the environmental impacts of alternatives to the

proposed action, and mitigative measures available for reducing or avoiding adverse impacts. 

It also includes the staff’s preliminary recommendation that the adverse environmental impacts

of license renewal for Ginna are not so great that preserving the option of license renewal for

energy planning decisionmakers would be unreasonable. 

Copies of the supplement were filed with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA),

which will publish a Notice of Filing regarding the draft supplement in the Federal Register on

July 3, 2003. The notice will provide for a 75-day public comment period which will end on

September 16, 2003. The staff has scheduled public meetings on August 7, 2003, in Ontario,

New York, to present its analyses and to accept public comments on the draft supplement.

National Research Council Public Meeting

On June 23, 2003, a representative from Division of Inspection Program Management attended

a public meeting associated with the ongoing National Research Council study entitled,

"Assessment of Distribution and Administration of Potassium Iodide (KI) in the Event of a

Nuclear Incident." The Council’s Board on Radiation Effects Research intends to make

recommendations to the President and Congress on: (1) the projected benefits and harms of a

KI distribution program as part of a nuclear incident preparedness program; (2) the most

effective and safe way to distribute and administer KI on a mass scale to prevent radiation

effects; (3) the populations that should be included in the program; (4) the appropriate roles for

local, State and Federal agencies in such a preparedness program; and, (5) any additional

issues that need to be researched, resolved or addressed. Presentations were given on the

history and procedures for the use of KI as a protective measure for the general public around

fixed nuclear facilities (Dr. Ruth Hagstrom, State of Tennessee); educating professionals, the

public and the media on KI (Dr. Jan Carney, State of Vermont); distribution of KI in the event of

a nuclear incident (Dr. John Harrald, Institute for Crisis, Disaster and Risk Management, The

George Washington University); and the benefits and risks of iodide prophylaxis in Poland after

the Chernobyl reactor accident (Dr. Jan Wolff, National Institutes of Health).

Issuance of the Common-cause Failure Event Insights Reports, NUREG/CR-6819, Volumes 1

through 4

The Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research (RES) has published final reports on commoncause failure (CCF) insights for emergency diesel generators, pumps, motor-operated valves,

and circuit breakers. These reports provide CCF trends and engineering insights for each of

the four risk-important components for the period 1980 through 2000. This effort was

undertaken to systematically identify risk-informed insights and to provide feedback to the

regulatory process and is part of an ongoing program on risk-based analysis of reactor

operating experience. 

The studies in these reports were intended to take a look beyond the quantitative CCF

parameter estimates so as to gain a better understanding of why CCF events occur and what

measures may be taken to prevent, or at least mitigate the effects of, CCF events. These

reports include engineering insights that may be used to improve the risk perspective of

inspection activities in areas such as failure causes, coupling factors, detection methods, and

subsystems that contribute most to CCF events. These reports support the strategic goals of

maintaining safety; improving regulatory effectiveness, efficiency, and realism; reducing

unnecessary burden; and increasing public confidence. 

NUREG/CR-6819 is available in ADAMS: Volume 1 is ML031710318; Volume 2 is

ML031710328; Volume 3 is ML0317103336; and Volume 4 is ML031710861. In addition, the

reports are available on the NRC web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doccollections/nuregs/contract/cr6819/. 

Funding of a National Academy of Engineering Grant on Accident Precursors

The Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research has provided partial funding for a National

Academy of Engineering (NAE) project on “Accident Precursors.” This project is also supported
