The panel will discuss real cost savings achieved from implementation of three Risk-Informed (RI) programs: Initiative 5b (TSTF-425) allows for RI Surveillance Requirement frequency changes, Initiative 4b (TSTF 505) allows for RI completion times for required actions, and 10CFR50.69 allows for RI relaxation of requirements for low-safety significant SSCs. The panel will share success stories from utilities who have implemented these programs.
