Create a new American National Standard (ANS): ASME RA-S-1.7 - 20XX, Multi-Unit Probabilistic Risk Assessment

Oliver Martinez 05/19/24
This standard will provide risk metrics that capture multi-unit risk issues not addressed in the current Level 1 single unit metrics such as core damage frequency (CDF) and large early release frequency (LERF), and then presents a set of technical requirements. The requirements are developed by identifying requirements from the existing PRA standard (RA-S) that are impacted by expanding the scope to multi-unit risk and revising those requirements to account for multiple units at a site.


Create a new American National Standard (ANS): ASME RA-S-1.8 - 20XX, Risk Informing Physical Security and Cyber Security Programs at Nuclear Facilities

Oliver Martinez 05/23/24
This document will provide methods/processes to risk-inform nuclear facility physical-security and cyber-security programs, including implementation guidance for these methods/processes. It will also potentially provide part of the technical basis on which a future standard covering these methods/processes could be based.
