NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
Advisory Committee on Nuclear Waste Working Group Meeting on the
NRC Staff Capabilities in Performance Assessment and Computer Modeling
of High-Level Waste Disposal Facilities; Meeting
The ACNW Working Group on the NRC staff capabilities in performance
assessment and computer modeling of high-level waste disposal
facilities will hold a meeting on May 16, 1994, room P-110, 7920
Norfolk Avenue, Bethesda, Maryland.
The entire meeting will be open to public attendance.
The agenda for the subject meeting shall be as follows:
Monday, May 16, 1994-8:30 a.m. until the conclusion of business.
The ACNW will revisit this subject, which was originally addressed
in an October 17, 1991 Working Group Meeting. Progress in the NRC's
Iterative Performance Assessment (PA) Program, the NRC staff's total
system performance assessment (TPA), the evolution of the reliance on
expert elicitation, and progress made in the execution of the NRC's
modular computer model will be subjects of interest to the Committee.
This review will be performed periodically to determine the degree of
in-house and contractor-supported PA capability, the coordination and
integration between data analyst and computer modelers, revisions to
the High-Level Radioactive Waste Management PA Strategy Plan, and
future direction of Phase 3 for PA development.
Oral statements may be presented by members of the public with the
concurrence of the ACNW Working Group Chairman; written statements will
be accepted and made available to the Working Group. Electronic
recordings will be permitted only during those portions of the meeting
that are open to the public, and questions may be asked only by members
of the Working Group, its consultants, and staff. Persons desiring to
make oral statements should notify the ACNW staff member named below
five days prior to the meeting, if possible, so that appropriate
arrangements can be made.
During the initial portion of the meeting, the ACNW Working Group,
along with any of its consultants who may be present, may exchange
preliminary views regarding matters to be considered during the balance
of the meeting.
The ACNW Working Group will then hear presentations by and hold
discussions with representatives of the NRC staff and their
consultants, national laboratories, state officials, and other
interested parties, as appropriate.
Further information regarding the agenda for this meeting, whether
the meeting has been cancelled or rescheduled, the Chairman's ruling on
requests for the opportunity to present oral statements and the time
allotted therefor can be obtained by a prepaid telephone call to the
cognizant ACNW staff member, Mr. Giorgio Gnugnoli (telephone 301/492-

this meeting are urged to contact the above named individual five days
before the scheduled meeting to be advised of any changes in schedule,
etc., that may have occurred.
Dated: April 25, 1994.
