response will protect workers and the 

public during recovery activities. The 

Board will also consider the issue of 

how DOE will manage external pressure 

to resume waste operations without 

compromising the safety attributes of 

the plan’s key elements. The Board will 

then examine DOE’s safety basis strategy 

for WIPP recovery operations and 

upgrades, including the criteria for 

determining whether upgrades need to 

be planned and executed as major 

modifications. This will include actions 

being taken by DOE and the site 

contractor to ensure that hazards during 

the recovery phases are properly 

analyzed in Evaluations of the Safety of 

the Situation, and controls are properly 

identified and implemented. The final 

topic in Session II concerns DOE’s 

strategy for providing adequate federal 

oversight during the recovery phase. In 

Session III, the Board will again receive 

testimony from a panel comprised of 

senior managers from DOE EM, CBFO, 

NWP, and the WIPP Accident 

Investigation Board Chairman. The 

Board will receive testimony on actions 

to correct deficiencies in key safety 

management programs such as 

emergency management, maintenance 

and engineering, fire protection, and 

nuclear safety. The Board will end 

Session III with a discussion of DOE’s 

strategy for improving the effectiveness 

of federal oversight of contractor 

activities, including specific actions to 

ensure that improvements made by the 

site contractor and DOE are sustained 

over the long term. In Session IV, the 

Board will conclude the proceeding 

with testimony from its senior staff 

regarding an update to the public on the 

Board’s proposed oversight actions 

associated with safe recovery of the 

underground, and oversight of 

corrective actions to resume and sustain 

safe waste operations. The Board is then 

expected to conduct deliberations 

concerning the staff’s proposed 

oversight plan. The meeting will 

conclude with the Board’s vote on the 

staff’s recommendation.

k. Description of Request: The 

licensee requests a temporary variance 

of the license-required minimum flow 

requirements at five locations in 2015 as 

a measure to respond to the current 

drought conditions in California. 

Specifically, the licensee requests 

Commission approval to: 

• Reduce minimum streamflows at 

South Fork American River below 

Kyburz (gage A–12) from the required 

60 cubic feet per second (cfs) to 45 cfs 

from May 16–31, from the required 60 

cfs to 18 cfs in June, from the required 

40 cfs to 15 cfs in July, and from the 

required 18 cfs to 15 cfs in August b 

• Reduce minimum streamflows in 

Caples Creek below Caples Lake main 

dam (gage A–6) from the required 10 cfs

storage at the project.
