  1. Meeting on April 18, 2013 Washington DC Workshop on a Joint HDPE Roadmap for Current and Future Service

  2. Overview • Joint HDPE Roadmaps Tracking Document: Issues, Status, Research, Results & Resolution • Tracking Purposes: • List all Issues preventing conditional or full acceptance of Codea & Standards for HDPE usage in Nuclear service • Reflect the current Status of the efforts to resolve a given Issue • Identify the Research Tasks needed to fully resolve an Issue • List current and planned Research projects by Research Task, as well as identify Tasks without a Research project • Summarize the Results of Research projects • Validate the Resolution of an Issue through and indicate revisions to existing or creation of new Codes and Standards for HPDE • To be use by Industry, Regulators, Research Entities, & SDO’s

  3. Goal • To have a single top-level tracking document • To have a common list of prioritized Issues affecting the acceptance of Codes & Standards for HDPE • For Industry & Regulators to see the path to Resolution of a given Issue needing Research • Highlight those Research Tasks that do not have an active or planned Research Project • Seek Industry/Government sponsorship for those needed Research Projects to accelerate HDPE acceptance

  4. 1st Step • Started developing the Joint HDPE Roadmaps Tracking document in January, 2013 • Initial Contributors were from NRC, NIST, EPRI & ASME ST-LLC • Document Structure and Tracking Methodology was developed • Several exchanges occurred between the initial contributors to bring the Tracking document to this point

  5. This Workshop • Show the Joint Tracking Document to broader audience • Obtain feedback on: • Methodology • Structure • Content (completeness and accuracy) • To be consider a living document ato be managed by stakeholders

  6. Next Steps • Incorporate the feedback from this Workshop • Identify additional Contributors from within this group of Stakeholders • Request the Contributors obtain the most complete & current information • Establish a “First Release Date” for the Tracking Document & identify the distribution

  7. ASME Committee Input (1) BPV III Standards Committee on Construction of Nuclear Facility Components Special Working Group on HDPE Design of Components (SG HDPE) WG R&D HDPE BPV XI Standards Committee on Nuclear In-service Inspection Subgroup on Repair/Replacement Activities (SGRRA) (SC XII Subgroup Evaluation Standards (SGES)(SC XI) Task Group Flaw Evaluation HPDE Working Group on Non-Destructive Examination and Fusion of HDPE

  8. ASME Committee Input (2) • Request that the Chairs of Committees, Subgroups, and Working Groups to related to HDPE Code Cases and Research on HDPE become Contributors • Obtain from Chairs the current status of ASME Research Projects for HDPE • Work with Code Case Project Managers to obtain most current status of Code Case N755-2 and N808

  9. To Achieve Standards NRC Acceptance Planning Concerns Resolutions Standards Acceptance 2 5 1 3 4 • Identify projects: utilize ASME’s HDPE Roadmap, NESCC’s report & other sources • Develop project scope • Establish tasks, schedule & budgets • Identify target code case or standard • Identify funding • Coordinate with other SDO’s, & government entities. • Obtain NRC buy in • Capturing Concerns from Regulators and industry • Prioritization of Concerns with input from NRC, SDOs and industry • Obtain NRC buy in • Solicited Contracts with R&D Entities • Oversee R&D Projects • Review Results • Final Findings and Outcome • Obtain NRC buy in • Standards development and writing • Modify existingor create new Technical Concerns, Code Cases or standards • Consensus process • Adoption to the Code • NRC participation in first 4 phases leading to standards endorsement • Seek NRC acceptance of new or modified code cases or standards • Accepted code case or standard be published in NUREG
