Specific Application of Graded Approach: Design Reconstitution cont'd

DOESTD107393

Limit the technical management review. For a program of adjusted scope, a full technical

management review might not be worthwhile. An effort to identify primarily missing design

requirements might be appropriate.

Do not regenerate missing design basis. The effort might be limited to collecting retrieved

design basis information -- that is, forgoing the identification or regeneration of missing basis.

Adopt short-cuts regeneration. It might be appropriate to adjust the level and depth of

regeneration efforts.

Use an index approach for DIS. The use of an index approach rather than a mixed approach

might mean savings in time and expense and still be adequate for the remaining lifetime.

Include essential DIS contents only. At a minimum, the DISs should define the conditions

necessary to determine the operability of the facility SSCs.

These strategies may be used alone or in combination depending on the scope of the adjustment.

Other strategies may be adopted in response to individual needs and circumstances. The basis for the

scope of the DR program should be established in the program plan.
