NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION


Draft Regulatory Guide DG-1096 and Draft Standard Review Plan 
Section 15.0.2

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

ACTION: Notice of public workshop.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Executive Director for Operations (EDO) of the Nuclear 
Regulatory Commission has instructed the NRC staff to resolve several 
issues resulting from the Independent Safety Assessment of the Maine 
Yankee Atomic Power Station. Of the eleven items identified by the EDO, 
four were concerned with analytical code validation, review, 
documentation and compliance with generic safety evaluations. All of 
these issues were generic in nature and resulted in the issuance of the 
two draft documents for public comment that are the subject of this 
workshop. The public comment period for these draft documents ended on 
February 15, 2001. It is the purpose of the workshop to exchange 
information among interested parties on the two documents and the 
comments received. After considering all comments and information, the 
NRC would issue the documents in their final form as acceptable 
guidance to licensees and vendors and to the NRC staff for review of 
analytical models.

DATES: April 9, 2001, 8 a.m.-5:30 p.m.

ADDRESSES: NRC Auditorium, (TWFN) of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, 
11545 Rockville Pike, Rockville, Maryland 20852.

AGENDA: To be provided.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice serves as notification of a 
public workshop to provide for the exchange of information with all 
stakeholders regarding the staff's efforts to provide comprehensive 
guidance for development, assessment and review of analytical methods 
used to calculate acceptable behavior of design basis events described 
in Chapter 15 of the Standard Review Plan (SRP) (NUREG-0800). The NRC 
encourages stakeholders to make presentations at this workshop on the 
subject documents. In particular should the documents provide 
additional information on simplified conservative analyses methods or 
incremental changes to existing evaluation models?
    This notice provides only the date, the location and a brief 
summary of the workshop. The workshop agenda will be provided at the 
workshop after integrating all requests for presentations.
