NRC Review definition

NRC Review. During the October 11-13, 2000 technical exchange, the NRC staff expressed concern that geologic information used in DOE hydrologic models was not consistent with observed fracture patterns and other geologic information. The mutually agreed upon intent of SDS Agreement 3.01 was that DOE would provide documentation to show that the observed fracture-fault patterns and lithostratigraphic information was adequately captured in the hydrologic models associated with the passive and Alcove 8 Niche 3 tests. The NRC used the term “fracture-informed” to try to express this idea.
NRC Review. The NRC staff reviewed the Multiscale Thermohydrologic Model AMR (ANL-EBS- MD-0049.Rev 00. ICN 02) received from DOE on January 31, 2002. As discussed above, the AMR was submitted in response to TEF Agreement 2.09. By letter dated May 8, 2002, the NRC staff provided its review of the AMR as it pertained to TEF Agreement 2.09. The following is the NRC staff’s review of the AMR as it pertains to CLST Agreement 6.04.
NRC Review. By letter dated October 12, 2001, XXX provided the following letter report as it pertains to this agreement, “Underground Observations of Excavation-Induced Fractures.”

NRC Review. In the Total System Performance Assessment for Site Recommendation, general corrosion was modeled by assigning corrosion rates to each waste package patch, selected from a pool of values sampled from a defined distribution. The waste package outer barrier within a patch was modeled as two “pseudo-barriers,” with an independent corrosion rate sampled for each. In agreement TSPAI.3.02, NRC staff requested DOE to provide a technical basis for this approach (resampling), because resampling could underestimate the number of early patch failures and, consequently, doses calculated to occur within the first 10,000 years. By letter dated May 9, 2002, DOE provided: (1) an analyses of a modified version of the waste package degradation (WAPDEG) model treating “patches” of the outer waste package with single corrosion rates, (2) a technical basis for resampling the general corrosion rates, and (3) a plot showing the effects of resampling. DOE indicated, in the May 9, 2002, letter and its enclosure, that it will not resample corrosion rates (i.e., DOE intends to model the shell regions of the waste package with a single corrosion rate). Based on the DOE decision not to use resampling, the NRC staff does not have any outstanding questions or comments regarding the technical basis of
NRC Review. The NRC reviewed the Geochemistry Model Validation Report: Material Degradation and Release Model (ANL-EBS-GS-00001) and Geochemistry Model Validation Report: External Accumulation Model (ANL-EBS-GS-00002) and determined that the documents do not satisfy the intent of the agreements. The NRC review focused on model validation discussions. The staff's concerns are outlined below. The staff notes that some of these issues can be resolved by clarifying statements from DOE, or future revisions of these or other documents. It is not clear whether the validation approach in the Geochemistry Model Validation Report: Material Degradation and Release Model is consistent with language in DOE's November 19, 1999, response to the NRC's August 18, 1999, request for additional information (RAI) on the DOE Disposal Criticality Analysis Methodology Topical Report. In that response, XXX stated that they would use the following comparisons for degradation model validation: analytical solutions, "chaining" several EQ6 runs, and other codes. In the model validation report, DOE only used the first comparison. It is not clear if those other validation reports (which have not yet been submitted) are oriented to the needs of criticality modeling. In addition, the comparisons in this report appear to straddle the line between validation and calibration. For example, in the glass test comparison, several smectite precipitation rate models are used in the effort to match experimental Mg concentrations. Similarly, for the archeological glass comparison, two dissolution rate models are employed, one yielding a better result. In the fuel model discussion, the log K for PuO2 solubility is varied, and the model is "refined" to better fit uranium concentrations. Finally, validation discussions are not always related to how they may affect criticality modeling. The results of validation exercises should be discussed in the context of how uncertainties in the models would be reflected in criticality model conclusions. Regarding the Geochemistry Model Validation Report: External Accumulation Model, as discussed above, the validation approach is not consistent with DOE statements in its November 19, 1999, RAI response. In the RAI response, Attachment 2 (see also SER Rev 00, section 3.4.2.3), DOE described its approach as follows: “...comparison between codes (both EQ3/6 and PHREEQC), comparison with experimental data, and comparison with natural analogs.” The methods are not included in this ...
NRC Review. The NRC staff has reviewed the letter report entitled “Climate Change Effects on Disruptive Event Biosphere Dose Conversion Factors,” dated July 1, 2002, and considers that the information contained in the letter report satisfies the intent of IA Agreement 2.
NRC Review. The intent of this agreement is to ensure that procurement of materials and fabrication specifications will have adequate quality controls to prevent alteration of the waste package materials characteristics that could affect the corrosion resistance. The composition specifications for waste package base alloys and weld filler metal include ranges for alloying element additions and maximum values for trace contaminants. Variations in the compositions of the base alloys and filler metals within the relatively wide ranges allowed in their respective specifications in combination with fabrication processes such as cold working, welding, and residual stress mitigation methods, may lead to microstructural variations that affect both the mechanical properties and the corrosion resistance of the waste packages.
NRC Review. In compliance with the requirements of 10 CFR Part 63, DOE in a potential license application for the proposed repository at Yucca Mountain, would be required to include a preclosure safety analysis identifying the structures, systems, and components important to safety and their design bases. In addition, 10 CFR Part 63 allows categorization of structures, systems, and components to an extent consistent with their importance to safety for the purpose of graded application of quality assurance programs.
