DOE technical standards do not establish requirements; however, all or part of the provisions within this Standard may become requirements under the following circumstances: (1) they are explicitly stated to be requirements in an applicable DOE requirements document, or (2) the organization makes a commitment to meet a standard in a contract or in an implementation plan or program plan of a DOE requirements document. Throughout this Standard, the word “shall” is used to denote a requirement; the word “should” is used to denote a recommendation; and, the word “may” is used to denote permission, but not a requirement or a recommendation. To satisfy this Standard, all applicable “shall” statements need to be met. Comments in the form of recommendations, pertinent data, and lessons learned that may improve this document should be sent to: James O’Brien, Director Office of Nuclear Safety, HS-30 U.S. Department of Energy 19901 Germantown Road Germantown, MD 20874 Phone: (301) 903-1408, Facsimile: (301) 903-6172 Email: james.o’brien@hq.doe.gov 1 DOE has chosen to use the term “probabilistic risk assessment” in this Standard to cover quantitative risk assessments where frequency and consequence are evaluated in an integrated manner. iii mailto:james.o�brien@hq.doe.gov DOE-STD-1628-2013 1. INTRODUCTION The Department of Energy (DOE) has taken action to improve the infrastructure and use of risk assessment methodologies for nuclear safety applications. These actions include revising DOE Policy (P) 420.1, Nuclear Safety Policy, dated February 2011, establishing a Risk Assessment Technical Working Group to provide advice expert technical guidance in the matters concerning risk assessments,1 and developing this Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) Standard which provides criteria and guidance for the development of PRAs at DOE nuclear facilities. The purpose of this Standard is to provide a consistent approach and process for planning, executing, and using PRAs in nuclear safety applications. This Standard is a process standard that builds upon and refers to recognized industry standards and guidance for details on how specific aspects of the process may be implemented. This Standard provides a set of references to guide project teams in the performance of probabilistic risk assessments. The DOE Nuclear Safety Policy supports the use of quantitative and probabilistic risk assessment methodologies to supplement qualitative/deterministic methods when such use is supported by industry practices and risk data. DOE’s review has indicated that such methodologies may be useful in the following areas (discussed more fully in Section 5 of this Standard):  Aiding in the evaluation of alternatives that comply with DOE nuclear safety requirements;  Supporting the unreviewed safety question (USQ) process;  Supplementing traditional safety assessment methods; and,  Evaluating changes to DOE safety requirements. In general, application of PRA methodologies can enhance the quality of hazard and risk analyses and the decisions that are made based on these analyses. 2. APPLICABILITY AND SCOPE This Standard was developed to support the use of PRAs in nuclear safety applications. It is based on standards, guides, and best practices used in the chemical, nuclear, and aerospace industries. PRAs developed using this Standard can be used to complement qualitative/deterministic methods for developing hazards assessments, hazard controls, and safety management programs.

Section 4

This Standard also addresses the use of PRAs to assist in developing a documented safety analysis (DSA) required by 10 C.F.R. Part 830, Nuclear Safety Management. This Standard can also be used to support risk-informed decision making. This Standard is not intended for analysis that simply employs a subset of PRA techniques, such as event-tree or fault-tree analysis, related to DOE nuclear facilities. The scope, complexity, and intended use of such analyses and calculations should be considered in determining the applicability of this Standard. The Standard should be applied in complex analyses where the 1 DOE has chosen to use the term “probabilistic risk assessment” in this standard to cover quantitative risk assessments where frequency and consequences are evaluated in an integrated manner. 1     DOE-STD-1628-2013 results are used as a significant input to decisions regarding the selection of or adequacy of safety controls, or whether to screen events and scenarios from further safety analysis. This Standard is not intended for use in evaluating the safety of nuclear explosive operations. Ensuring safety for nuclear explosive operations conducted by DOE, the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) and their respective contractors is the subject of a separate, specialized set of directives and standards (e.g., DOE Order 452.2D, Nuclear Explosive Safety, dated April 2009). Throughout this Standard, the word “shall” is used to denote a requirement; the word “should” is used to denote a recommendation; and, the word “may” is used to denote permission, but not a requirement or a recommendation. To satisfy this Standard, all applicable “shall” statements need to be met. 3. OVERVIEW OF STANDARD Section 4 of this Standard identifies general elements required for the development and use of PRAs. Section 5 identifies potential uses of PRA in DOE nuclear safety applications and describes considerations for developing a PRA. Appendix A contains a glossary of terms used in this Standard. Appendix B is designed around three tables of industry reference standards. Table B-1 provides industry standards that are directly applicable to implementing the various sections of the standard. Table B-2 is arranged by topical area and provides industry standards that apply to specific PRA processes (e.g., peer reviews) and technical subject matter (e.g., fault tree analysis, human reliability analysis). Table B-3 provides an example of the contents of a comprehensive PRA standard using a table of contents of the PRA performance standard for advanced non-light water reactor (LWR) PRAs.2 4. DEVELOPMENT OF PRAs This section provides the criteria and guidance for developing a PRA. Industry standard references supporting these key elements are discussed in Table B-1 of Appendix B. 4.1 PRA Plan Prior to developing a new PRA for nuclear safety applications, the responsible project manager shall develop a plan for the application of PRA techniques to the needs of the project. The PRA plan shall address the following elements:  Overview;  PRA approach;  Anticipated outcomes and intended use of information; and,  PRA technical adequacy and peer review approach. 2 ASME/ANS-RA-S-1.4-2013, “Probabilistic Risk Assessment Standard for Advanced Non-LWR Nuclear Power Plants,” ASME, New York, NY and ANS, La Grange Park, IL, has been approved for trial use in pilot applications and is scheduled for publication in December 2013; it closely parallels the standard for LWRs (ASME/ANS RA-Sb- 2013).

Section 5

2 DOE-STD-1628-2013 These main elements, along with associated subtopics, are discussed in the following sections. 4.1.1 Overview 4.1.1.1 Statement of Issue The PRA plan provides a statement of the issue that has brought about the need to apply PRA techniques. The PRA plan shall address the topics in subsections 4.1.1.2 through 4.1.1.5 below. 4.1.1.2 Purpose, Objectives, and Scope The purpose section describes why the PRA is being performed. The objectives section describes decisions to be supported or needs to be met by the PRA. The scope section describes the boundaries of the systems and the activities to be analyzed, including as applicable:  Facility structures, systems, and components (SSCs) and operating states;  Internal events and hazards;  External events and hazards; and,  Accident phenomena and progression. The PRA’s scope may be narrow or broad depending on the application. The PRA plan provides the rationale for the scope of the intended application. 4.1.1.3 Principal Assumptions, Limitations, and Methods and Models The PRA plan describes the principal assumptions (explicit and implicit) upon which the PRA’s methods and models are based, the rationale for the assumptions, the selection of methods and models, and any limitations of the PRA and on the use of the PRA’s results. 4.1.1.4 Relationship to the Safety Basis Documents The relationship between the anticipated PRA results and the nuclear facility safety basis and safety design basis documents (e.g., the DSA and Preliminary DSA) shall be described. The PRA plan describes the process used to identify: (a) the key PRA assumptions which require protection by appropriate mechanisms; (b) the use of PRA results to inform selection of safety controls to be included in the safety basis; and (c) applicability of the USQ process relative to maintaining the PRA (see Section 5 of this Standard). 4.1.1.5 Risk Metrics The PRA plan describes the risk metrics and risk significance criteria to be used in carrying out the PRA and provides a technical rationale for these criteria. Example metrics include the frequency of exceeding specified design or radiological dose limits, probability of exceeding established safety criteria, and individual risk from radiological or chemical exposures (see definition in Appendix A of this Standard). The manner in which the selected risk metrics and the supporting quantitative risk analyses will complement insights gained through 3 DOE-STD-1628-2013 qualitative/deterministic processes3 (to support risk-informed decisions) shall be documented in the PRA plan and in the discussion of PRA results (see also Section 4.4 of this Standard). 4.1.2 PRA Approach Several methodologies (methods and models) for performing a PRA have been developed and are described in industry guides and standards (see Appendix B of this Standard). Each particular methodology offers specialized schemes and tools for analyzing facilities or processes. The methodology that is adopted should be systematic and consistent with PRA practice. The PRA approach shall be described in the plan by addressing the topics below. 4.1.2.1 Detailed Assumptions Based upon the principal assumptions (see Section 4.1.1.3 of this Standard), the plan identifies detailed assumptions that influence the strategies and the methods or models that form the basis of the PRA approach to the extent that such assumptions can be identified in the PRA planning phase.

Section 6

4.1.2.2 Data Parameter Estimation and Analysis The plan defines the process for estimation of data parameters to be used in the analysis, including the development of data parameter estimates derived from facility-specific and generic data sources, and, consistent with established industry standards, acquired through collection of service experience data, expert elicitation, and expert judgment. Typical data parameters of interest include:  Initiating event frequencies and uncertainties;  Component failure rates or failure probabilities and uncertainties;  Common cause failure parameters and uncertainties;  Human error rates and uncertainties; and,  Event or phenomena (e.g., gas ignition) probabilities. The plan describes the process of collecting and analyzing information in order to estimate data parameters selected for the PRA models, including sources of information used to obtain estimates of the PRA data parameters (examples of which are listed above) of various events. The approach to characterizing and quantifying uncertainties in the estimates of data parameters is described, including the method for combining information from different sources. The plan describes the process for data analysis, parameter estimation, and sensitivity analysis. The plan also addresses the strategy for any database development, including the service data collection process, identification of data sources, methods for combining information from different sources (e.g., Bayes’ methods), and characterization of uncertainty in the parameter estimates. 3 See DOE P 420.1 and DOE/HS-0006, Technical Basis for U.S. Department of Energy Nuclear Safety Policy 420.1, July 2011. 4 DOE-STD-1628-2013 4.1.2.3 Methodology Description The plan describes the methodology to be used for developing the PRA. The plan identifies applicable industry standards or guides for the performance of the PRA and provides the technical rationale for their use in terms of relevance, applicability, completeness, and level of detail. An example of PRA methodology elements for non-light water reactors is provided in Section 3 of Table B-3 of Appendix B in this Standard.4 4.1.2.4 Schedule and Resources The plan describes the schedule and resource requirements necessary for the development, conduct, and peer review of the PRA. 4.1.3 Anticipated Outcomes and Intended Use of Information The PRA plan shall address the topics in subsections 4.1.3.1, 4.1.3.2, and 4.1.3.3 below. 4.1.3.1 Outcomes The plan describes the results to be produced and expectations for documentation of analysis and results. Further sample guidance can be found on this topic in the ASME/ANS Standards for PRA (see Appendix B). 4.1.3.2 Interpretation of Results The plan describes how the PRA risk metric results will be evaluated and compared with established risk significance criteria in order to support risk-informed decisions. This stage of the process includes a delineation of the principal contributors to risk and an evaluation of uncertainties, including a quantification of uncertainty in the estimate of risk and a sensitivity analysis of sources of uncertainty that are not quantified. 4.1.3.3 Impact on Safety Basis The plan describes how the results of the PRA will interface with the existing safety basis or be included in the Safety Design Strategy for new facilities (required by DOE Standard 1189-2008, Integration of Safety into the Design Process). The plan also describes the approach for balancing and reconciling insights derived from deterministic and probabilistic inputs to risk- informed decision making to the extent possible at the planning stage.

Section 7

4 These methodology elements are similar to those used in light water reactor (LWR) PRA but are not dependent on LWR risk metrics such as core damage frequency and as such are more relevant to DOE non-reactor facilities. 5 DOE-STD-1628-2013 4.1.4 Technical Adequacy5 and Peer Review Approach The plan shall describe the approach for assuring the technical adequacy of PRA development and provide the basis for the approach. The approach to technical adequacy shall include:  Use of qualified personnel adequately trained in applicable PRA and DOE safety subject matter,  Completeness and transparency of documentation,  Use of appropriate PRA methods and procedures,  PRA model/facility configuration control and performance monitoring,  Applicable DOE quality assurance (QA) requirements, and  PRA technical and peer reviews. 4.1.4.1 PRA Team and Review Personnel The plan describes the necessary disciplines and qualifications of the team to perform the PRA. The team shall include personnel experienced in DOE’s nuclear safety process and requirements. The approval authority for the PRA plan shall assign qualified personnel to review the plan for technical adequacy. 4.1.4.2 Completeness and Transparency of Documentation The PRA shall be documented in a manner that facilitates its application, upgrade, and peer review. The PRA shall provide objective evidence that the requirements of this Standard, and any supporting PRA performance standards, have been met. 4.1.4.3 Procedures The plan describes guides and procedures employed to ensure consistency and coherence among tasks performed by different analysts. 4.1.4.4 Model/Facility Configuration Control and Performance Monitoring The plan describes the approach and procedures for assuring adequate configuration control of the PRA model for consistency with the facility design and the actual as-built facility, both during initial performance of the PRA and its use in any ongoing risk management programs. This includes a process for monitoring system performance and verification of PRA inputs to ensure their validity during the duration of the PRA application. 5 The term “technical adequacy” is used in the field of PRA to refer to strategies for technical quality that parallel those employed in quality assurance programs. These requirements for PRA technical adequacy are not to be confused with “quality assurance” as defined in DOE QA requirements. Any changes made to DOE facilities arising from the PRA are also required to satisfy DOE quality assurance requirements. In addition, the PRA will need to employ applicable QA procedures as part of its approach to PRA technical adequacy, based on the scope and applications of the PRA. 6 DOE-STD-1628-2013 4.1.4.5 Applicable DOE QA Requirements The plan identifies applicable DOE QA requirements (including, where appropriate, DOE requirements for QA records and audits, the use of verified computer programs, document logs, corrective action programs, and the use of procedures) and describes how they will be met. 4.1.4.6 Technical and Peer Reviews The plan describes the process used to perform internal team checks and technical reviews. The plan also describes how personnel familiar with the facility will review assumptions regarding the design, operation and maintenance of the facility used in the development of PRA models and data analysis.

Section 8

The plan describes the peer review process, identifies applicable standards and guides used to perform the peer review, and provides the rationale for the approach. The peer review process should be commensurate with the PRA’s complexity and importance to safety. The PRA plan should identify whether peer reviews will be conducted at intermediate stages during development and conduct of the PRA. The scope of peer review may range from a single subject matter expert to a formal external review (see Section 4.5 of this Standard), depending on the scope, complexity and intended use of the PRA. The peer review team’s collective experience and expertise shall encompass the technical subject matter of the PRA and the design, maintenance, and operation of the type of facility being assessed. 4.1.5 Plan Approval The plan shall be reviewed against this Standard and approved by DOE. The level of DOE review and approval should be commensurate with the purposes and uses of the PRA. For nuclear safety applications related to the development of DSAs, the DOE approval authority for the PRA plan should be the DOE approval authority for the DSA. 4.2 Performance The PRA shall be performed in accordance with the PRA plan. In particular, appropriate industry standards, guides, and practices shall be implemented consistent with the PRA plan. Substantive (i.e., non-administrative) changes identified to be necessary during implementation of the PRA plan shall be documented and approved by DOE. 4.3 Completeness Criteria PRA models shall be developed in a manner that meets the following completeness criteria: (a) Models identify and quantify the significant contributors to risk (see definition of risk significance provided in Appendix A, Glossary, of this Standard) according to the risk metrics and scope selected. (b) Models provide a comprehensive treatment of dependencies that are necessary and sufficient to provide a realistic assessment of risk levels and to identify the significant contributors to risk. These dependencies should include physical, functional and human- 7 DOE-STD-1628-2013 caused dependencies that may increase or significantly influence the frequency and probability of multiple failures or unavailabilities. (c) Models use industry-accepted methods for identifying and quantifying the risk of common cause failures that may adversely impact the reliability of redundant safety systems. (d) Models shall not screen out events based solely on assessments of low frequency or low probability without consideration of the consequences of the event (to establish the event’s overall risk significance). The PRA may screen out events only when it can be shown that inclusion of the event would not impact the characterization of risk-significant accident sequences or basic events. The rationale supporting any screening shall be documented. 4.4 Results and Documentation The first several elements listed below are the same as those documented in the PRA plan, but will need to be updated to reflect experience gained during performance of the PRA. The following key elements of the PRA shall be documented in a final report submitted to DOE: (a) The project’s purpose and objective. (b) Evidence that the requirements in this Standard and its supporting standards have been met; justification for any requirements not met. (c) A description of whether and how the PRA results meet the PRA objectives. (d) A clear and concise tabulation of known limitations and constraints associated with the

Section 9

analysis. (e) A clear and concise tabulation of the assumptions used, especially with respect to mission success criteria. (f) Delineation of, and justification for, risk metrics and significance criteria used to interpret the results. (g) Justification of completeness in identifying and screening out of risk contributors (i.e., justification that screened out facility operating states, hazards groups, initiating events, accident sequences, human actions, and failure modes, etc.) do not individually or collectively make a significant contribution to risk. (h) Identification of data sources and data analysis methods, including the approach for the integration of estimates from different sources and for characterization and quantification of uncertainties. (i) Identification of significant contributors to analyzed risk metrics, including facility operating states, hazards, initiating events, accident sequences, end states, basic events, and human actions. (j) Characterization and quantification of uncertainties (including parameter uncertainties, uncertainties in phenomena and human performance, and modeling uncertainties) in the evaluation of analyzed risk metrics, and the results of sensitivity studies to evaluate sources of uncertainty that are not quantified. (k) Risk insights relative to deterministic analyses contained in the relevant DSA. (l) Results of actions taken to ensure technical adequacy, and steps necessary to protect assumptions used in the PRA. (m) Disposition and resolution of peer review comments. (n) Results and conclusions. 8 DOE-STD-1628-2013 4.5 Assuring Technical Adequacy The approach to assuring technical adequacy of the PRA is documented as part of the PRA plan (see Section 4.1.4 of this Standard). If the approach to technical adequacy changes during the course of performing the PRA, those changes shall be documented, justified, and approved (same approval authority as plan approval per Section 4.1.5 of this Standard) prior to implementation. 4.5.1 Implementing Technical Adequacy Requirements Implementing technical adequacy requirements for the PRA shall address the approach defined by the PRA plan, including: (a) Use of qualified personnel adequately trained in the subject matter of the PRA and applicable DOE requirements. (b) Completeness and transparency of documentation. (c) Use of appropriate methods and procedures. (d) Model/facility configuration control and performance monitoring. (e) Applicable DOE QA requirements. (f) Technical and peer reviews. 4.5.2 Performing a Peer Review The peer review process should be commensurate with complexity of the analysis and importance to safety of the expected PRA results. In the simplest case, peer review may entail an independent review by a single qualified subject matter expert. More complex facilities or analyses, especially those dealing with large potential radiological exposures or releases, warrant more comprehensive peer reviews. 4.5.2.1 Peer Review Process Where the detailed peer review process is warranted and employed, the peer review shall: (a) Use a documented peer review process. (b) List the review topics to ensure completeness, consistency, and uniformity. (c) Review the appropriateness of the PRA model. (d) Review assumptions and assess validity and appropriateness. (e) Ensure that data sources are documented and appropriately used. (f) Review treatment and propagation of uncertainties. (g) Review whether the PRA appropriately represents facility design and operations. (h) Review the use of industry standards. (i) Evaluate the manner in which the insights gained through the PRA are integrated with

Section 10

and/or complement the results of DSA deterministic analyses. (j) Review the process used to ensure that technical adequacy requirements were met. (k) Review results of each PRA technical element for reasonableness. (l) Review PRA maintenance, update and configuration control processes. 9 DOE-STD-1628-2013 4.5.2.2 Peer Review Team The peer review team shall be independent of the user organization (i.e., with no conflicts of interest that could affect objectivity). The review team shall include personnel who: (a) Have collective expertise and experience that encompasses the technical subject matter of the PRA, (b) Are knowledgeable of the peer review process, (c) Are knowledgeable of the DOE’s nuclear safety processes and requirements, and (d) Are knowledgeable of the design, operation and maintenance of the facility being analyzed. 4.5.2.3 Peer Review Results Results of the peer review shall be documented in a report that addresses the following elements: (a) The peer review process. (b) The scope of the peer review (i.e., what was reviewed by the peer review team). (c) The findings on technical adequacy of the PRA. (d) A discussion of where the PRA does not meet desired characteristics and attributes. (e) The assessment of the significance of any vulnerabilities and deficiencies identified. (f) The qualifications of individual team members and discussion of why the team’s collective expertise was adequate for the review. (g) A discussion of the independence of the peer review team and freedom of individual members from conflicts of interest. 5. USES OF PRAs IN DOE NUCLEAR SAFETY APPLICATIONS DOE P 420.1 allows the use of PRA when employed to supplement DOE’s qualitative/ deterministic processes and supported by industry practices and availability of risk data. In determining whether a facility-specific PRA should be pursued, the following are relevant considerations:  Purpose for the PRA (risk-informed decisions, complex accident phenomena and progression, surveillance and maintenance of safety SSCs, equipment performance and reliability, etc.), scope of the PRA (full facility vs. partial, accident frequencies and/or risk consequence analysis), and availability of data to support the PRA;  Complexity of facility processes (number and complexity of SSCs, scope of facility functions and operations), and relevant phenomena (such as fires);  Magnitude of unmitigated dose consequences; and,  Programmatic importance of the facility (mission critical), and facility design life-cycle stage (new, existing, major modifications). 10 DOE-STD-1628-2013 DOE has determined that PRA insights may be used to supplement traditional analytic approaches; examples are provided below. 5.1 Evaluating Alternative Compliance Approaches Insights resulting from PRAs may assist decision makers in evaluating alternative courses of action, each of which comply with DOE’s nuclear safety requirements for design, operations, and decommissioning. For example, PRAs may be used to inform the selection of safety SSCs and specific administrative controls. 5.2 Supporting the USQ Process The USQ process requires evaluation of proposed facility changes and the significance of new safety information. Results from a PRA may support USQ determination, assessment of a potential inadequacy of the safety analysis, preparation of a justification for continued operation, evaluation of safety margins, and selection of compensatory measures.

Section 11

5.3 Supplementing Traditional Safety Methods A PRA methodology can augment existing DOE safety assessment methods by (a) providing input to the definition and selection of design basis events; (b) prioritizing efforts for addressing safety issues, based on risk information;(c) assessing uncertainties in semi-quantitative analyses; (d) evaluating lessons learned and operating experience, exposing and evaluating sources of uncertainty in safety analyses; and, (e) testing the sensitivity of analytical results against key assumptions. PRA results can enhance DOE decisions on defense-in-depth by providing information on the importance of each control making up the defense-in-depth strategy and by providing risk insights needed to balance prevention and mitigation strategies. In addition, PRAs can inform the design process, especially for complex, high-hazard facilities. 5.4 DOE Evaluation of Changes to Safety Requirements PRA results can be used to support risk-informed decision making for DOE safety requirements in the following areas:  Proposed rulemaking to impose new requirements directed at improving safety;  Proposed orders or rules directed at increasing effectiveness, or furthering the Department’s strategic goals other than safety, but which raise safety questions; and,  Proposed exemptions or changes to existing orders or rules that might cause increases in risk. 11     DOE-STD-1628-2013 Appendix A Glossary The following is a glossary of risk assessment terms used at DOE and in general industry. The source of the definition is noted. Different definitions can be found from different sources; however, these definitions are the most appropriate to DOE nuclear safety applications. Term Definition and Source Deterministic Analysis An analysis that specifies and applies a set of conservative deterministic rules and requirements for the design and operation of facilities or for the planning and conduct of activities.

[from ISO 31000, Risk Management - Principles and Guidelines: 2009] Risk Identification A process of finding, recognizing and describing risks. Risk identification involves the identification of risk sources, events, their causes and their potential consequences. Risk identification can involve historical data, theoretical analysis, informed and expert opinions, and stakeholder's needs. [from ISO 31000] Risk-informed Decision Making An approach to decision making that makes use of risk insights while maintaining deterministic and probabilistic principles. These principles include the following: 1. The proposed change meets the current regulations unless it is explicitly related to a requested exemption 2. The proposed change is consistent with a defense-in-depth philosophy. 3. The proposed change maintains sufficient safety margins. 4. When proposed changes result in an increase in risk, the increases should be small and consistent with the intent of the DOE Nuclear Safety Policy. 5. The impact of the proposed change should be monitored using performance measurement strategies. [adapted from NRC Regulatory Guide 1.174, An Approach for Using Probabilistic Risk Assessment in Risk-Informed Decisions on Plant-Specific Changes to the Licensing Basis, Revision 1, 2002] Risk Metric/Risk Significance Criteria Terms of reference against which the significance of risk is evaluated. Risk metrics and the risk significance criteria to which they are compared are based on organizational objectives and external and internal context (environment in which the organization seeks to achieve its objectives). [from ISO 31000] Risk metrics are the quantities (conditions or states of concern, e.g. large release frequency) measured in a PRA, while the risk significance criteria are thresholds of concern against which the levels of risk are measured. Example risk metrics include frequency of: public or worker dose limits or constraints, meeting cost to benefit goals, system failure modes, radiological health effects, core damage or other facility damage, a radioactive material release level or specific health or safety detriment.

Section 13

Risk significance criteria, in addition to risk metric thresholds, can include criteria on contributions to risk such as significant basic events and significant event sequences. A-2 DOE-STD-1628-2013 Term Definition and Source Significant Basic Event A basic event that contributes significantly to the computed risks for the total risk for risk for a specific hazard group. For internal events, this includes any basic event that has a Fussell-Vesely importance greater than 0.005 or a risk achievement worth (RAW) importance greater than 2. For hazard groups that are analyzed using methods and assumptions that can be demonstrated to be conservative or bounding, alternative numerical criteria may be more appropriate, and, if used, should be justified. [adapted from ASME/ANS RA-S-1.4-2013] Significant Risk Contributor Implies a significant contributor to a given risk metric which may be expressed as the total integrated risk, or risk associated with a specified part of the risk model, as defined by: the source(s) of radioactive material; plant or facility operating state(s); hazard group(s); event sequence(s); event sequence family(ies); or release category(ies). Contributors may be defined in terms of initiating events, initiating event families, event sequences, event sequence families, plant or facility damage states, release categories, basic events, or other defined elements of the PRA model. [adapted from ASME/ANS RA-S-1.4-2013] Significant Event Sequence One of the set of event sequences, defined at the functional or systematic level, that, when rank-ordered by decreasing frequency, aggregate to a specified percentage of the release category frequency, or that individually contribute more than a specified percentage of the release category frequency or other risk metric calculated in the PRA. Depending on the context, significance may be measured in terms of the total integrated risk, or for the risk associated with a specific source of radioactive material, plant or facility operating state and hazard group. For this version of the Standard, the aggregate percentage is 95% and the individual percentage is 1%. Event sequence significance can be measured relative to each separate release category frequency. For hazard groups that are analyzed using methods and assumptions that can be demonstrated to be conservative or bounding, alternative numerical criteria may be more appropriate, and, if used, should be justified. [adapted from ASME/ANS RA-S-1.4-2013] Screening A process that eliminates items from further consideration based on their insignificant contribution to the frequency or probability of an accident sequence or its consequences. [adapted from ASME/ANS RA-S-1.4-2013] Screening Criteria The values and conditions used to determine whether an item is an insignificant contributor to the frequency or probability of an accident sequence or its consequences. [adapted from ASME/ANS RA-S-1.4- 2013] Technical Adequacy Term used in PRA for the set of activities to achieve quality as described in this Standard. A-3 DOE-STD-1628-2013 Appendix B Key References Listed by Section 4 Topical Areas

Section 14

The purpose of this Appendix is to provide references that offer guidance on how to plan, perform, and apply PRAs to risk-informed decision making in a manner that meets the requirements of this Standard. The references provided are drawn from PRA applications at DOE facilities, chemical and process industries, the aerospace industry, and the commercial nuclear power industry. The references include example standards used in developing and applying PRAs, procedure guides that may be used to guide PRA development; and guides and standards for applying PRAs in risk-informed decision-making. The list is not exhaustive; it is a representative set that may be useful in applying this Standard. The user of this Standard is responsible for providing the rationale for the applicability of any referenced guides and standards, as set forth in the requirements of this Standard. The references are up to date at the point this Standard was issued; however, the user of this Standard should check whether more recent versions are available and may use the more recent versions. In Table B-1, the application of several key references to each of the topical areas in Section 4 of this Standard is described. These key references including nuclear safety policies and quantitative safety goals employed at DOE-owned and NRC-licensed facilities, guides and standards used at NASA and NRC-licensed facilities for risk-informed decision making, and the ASME/ANS PRA standard developed for commercial light water and non-light water reactor nuclear power plants. A more extensive list of references is provided in Table B-2, organized into the following topical areas:  Standards for PRA and Risk-Informed Decision Making  Guidance for Risk-Informed Decision Making  Non-Reactor PRA Applications  Guidance for PRA Peer Reviews  Guidance for PRA Methodology  PRA Methods for Special Topics o Fault Tree Analysis o Database Development and Analysis o Common Cause Failure Analysis o Human Reliability Analysis o Internal Flooding PRA o Internal Fire PRA o External Event Screening o Aircraft Crash Analysis o Seismic PRA o External Flooding PRA o High Winds PRA o Expert Elicitation B-1 DOE-STD-1628-2013 o Probabilistic Treatment of Phenomena o Quantification and Treatment of Uncertainties One of the more comprehensive references is ASME/ANS RA-S-1.4-2013, Advanced Non LWR PRA Standard.
