Analyses tend to get easier as go up on LOCA sizes in that less systems to worry about.

As a group the panel was uncomfortable with comments on Effect of Operating Time for Category 4 LOCAs.

Bill Galyean suggested that for presentation to public, may want to consider some other means of reporting extremely low frequencies (~1e-15); Rob wasn’t sure he could define a cut off value; also when look at median values, these low numbers don’t impact final answer; Helmut supported this approach.

Helmut suggested that we explicitly state that a major assumption was that everything was fabricated in accordance with Code standards; no counterfeit bolts, etc.

Participant J only has fatigue in his analysis, once he includes other mechanisms, then his frequencies will go up by 2 or 3 orders of magnitude, but will still be low and probably will not alter the final median results.
