tions, but the documentation should exist to support such a review, and should be maintained for the life of the plant or until such time at which the recommendations are invalidated by later changes. Staff Expectations of the Integrated Decisionmaking Process Reviewers should ensure that the licensee’s decisionmaking process contains the following attributes: • The process should be well-defined, systematic, repeatable, and scrutable. This process should be technically defensible and should be sufficiently detailed to allow an independent party to reproduce the major results. • Deliberations should be application-specific. The objectives proposed for the integrated decisionmaking process for a particular application (particularly, how the results are to be utilized) should be well defined and relevant to the given application. • Membership in the decisionmaking team should include experienced individuals with demonstrated skills and knowledge in relevant engineering disciplines (depending on the application), plant procedures and operations, plant systems (including operational 19.2-70 June 2007 history), system response and dependencies, operator training and response, details of the plant-specific PRA, and regulatory guidance. • The decisionmaking team should have been advised of the specifics of all proposed changes and the relevant background information associated with the licensing action. In addition, since the judgement will depend, in part, on the results of a risk analysis, it is important that all team members be provided with an interpretation of the results of the risk model and the potential limitations of that model. • The licensee's integrated decisionmaking process should take into account the principles and expectations described in Subsection II of this SRPsection. • In formulating the findings, the licensee should account for both probabilistic and traditional engineering considerations. This should include information from the
