• Typos
• Inconsistent label references
• Links to deleted steps in other procedures
• 50.54(x) references
• A licensee may take reasonable action that departs from a license condition or a
technical specification (contained in a license issued under this part) in an
emergency when this action is immediately needed to protect the public health
and safety and no action consistent with license conditions and technical
specifications that can provide adequate or equivalent protection is immediately
apparent.
• Ensure Phase Rotation Checks
• FLEX Storage Temperature checks
• Operational vs Design Margin
• Missing Tools, Mislabeled Components

22. Best Practices
•Present strategies on Day 1
• Timelines help
• Use visuals – maps/drawings/schematics
•Simulator can be used, but not necessary
•Computer Demonstration of multi-source dose
assessment
•Provide FSGs and procedures to the team
(current revision!)

23. Best Practices Cont.
•Keep support team in close proximity to the
NRC
• Resolve issues quickly
•Provide computers to the support team to allow
them to continue working
• Reduces stress
•Use knowledge base appropriately
• NRC will ask many people same question to gauge
alignment and understanding
• Use FLEX knowledge base

25. Compliance Matrix
A method for Self Assessment
XCEED Engineering and Consulting P.C.
585-340-7277
info@xceed-eng.com
25
26. Self Assessments
• Using TI-2515/191 for self assessment
• Break TI into requirements (~74 requirements)
• Document compliance for each one
• Pros:
• Manageable list of requirements
• Cons:
• TI accounts for only 8.7% of requirements
XCEED Engineering and Consulting P.C.
585-340-7277
info@xceed-eng.com
26
27. Self Assessments
• Using NEI 12-06 for Self Assessments
• Break into requirements (~499 Requirements)
• Document compliance for each one
• Pros:
• More detail for FLEX
• Cons:
• Missing Dose Assessment, SFP, Communications
XCEED Engineering and Consulting P.C.
585-340-7277
info@xceed-eng.com
27
28. Self Assessments
• Guidance and other Regulatory Documents

30. A Thorough Self Assessment
• How do you know if you’re in compliance with all of
these requirements?
XCEED Engineering and Consulting P.C.
585-340-7277
info@xceed-eng.com
30
31. Solution
• Step 1: COLLECT & ANALYZE
• Requirement Basis Documents (Orders, Guidance, FAQs, IERs, etc.)
• Step 2: EXTRACT
• Extract requirements, maintaining source references
• Step 3: ORGANIZE
• Organize Requirements into categories
• Step 4: REVIEW
• Site Basis Documents (calculations, procedures, NRC submittals, program
plans, UFSAR, etc.)
• Step 5: DOCUMENT
• Compliance for each requirement
• Maintain Source References
• Step 6: GENERATE
• Database and Report
XCEED Engineering and Consulting P.C.
585-340-7277
info@xceed-eng.com 31
32. Step 1: Collect and Analyze
• The scope of the compliance matrix is determined by the site
• NRC order
• EA-12-049
• EA-12-051
• NEI 12-06
• NEI 12-01
• NEI 12-02
• 50.54(f)
• INPO IER
• etc.
XCEED Engineering and Consulting P.C.

32
33. Step 2: Requirement Extraction
• Requirements are extracted from guidance documents while
maintaining source references.
• Maintaining source references allows the end user to reference
back to the main document for each compliance requirement.

Requirement ID
35. Step 3: Requirement Categorization
• Categorization allows for simplified searching and reports
• Requirements are categorized based on compliance attributes.
• Some requirements require multiple attributes. For example,
NEI 12-06 section 1.3 states:
“To the extent practical, generic thermal hydraulic analyses will
be developed to support plant specific decision-making.”
• This requirement involves Thermal Hydraulic analyses for the following critical
functions:
• Spent Fuel Pool
• Reactor Coolant System
• Containment
• This requirement is therefore categorized as a Critical Function
XCEED Engineering and Consulting P.C.
585-340-7277
info@xceed-eng.com
35
36. Step 3: Requirement Categorization
• The FLEX requirement categories are broken down
as follows:
• Boundary Conditions
• Deployment
• Critical Functions
• FLEX Support Guidelines (FSGs)
• Hazards
• Phases
• Protection
• Maintenance
• National Safer Response Center (NSRC)
• Submittal
36
37. Step 4: Site Documentation Review
• Documents reviewed include, but are not limited to the
following:
• UFSAR
• Hydraulic Calculations
• Electrical Calculations
• Structural Calculations
• FSGs
• Site Emergency Procedures (EOPs, AOIs, EOIs, etc.)
• SAFER Playbooks
• Equipment Specifications
• Regulatory Submittals (OIPs, Order responses, etc.)
XCEED Engineering and Consulting P.C.
585-340-7277
info@xceed-eng.com 37
38. Step 5: Compliance Determination
• Each requirement category has unique attributes for which
compliance must be documented
• Hazards
• Seismic
• Flood
• Wind
• Temperature
• Phases
• Phase 1
• Phase 2
• Phase 3
• Etc.
• Compliance is documented for each attribute of every
requirement
XCEED Engineering and Consulting P.C.
585-340-7277
info@xceed-eng.com
38
39. Step 6: Compliance Documentation
• Compliance is documented within a Microsoft Access Database
• Compliance is searchable, and easily updatable.
• Database provides a user-friendly tool for continued upkeep of
program documentation
• Cross linking allows in-depth compliance documentation
• The following items are linked to each requirement as applicable:
• FLEX Equipment
• References
• Assumptions
• NRC Open Items for each site
• Accepted Alternative Strategies
• Database is accompanied by a final report detailing alternate
strategies, findings, and regulatory vulnerabilities
