  • NUREG 1537 update for use with MSR Test Reactorlicensing
  • Supportive of the development of risk informed, performance based regulatorystructure
  • Utility led Licensing Modernization Project results arepromising
  • Regulatory guidance on functional containment issupported
  • Fuel qualification approaches for MSR need to be developed
  • Modeling and simulation tools – working with NEAMS on Multiphysics tools to support

MSR analysis

  • Participating in the development of ANS 20.2 Standard forMSRs
  • Need for HALEU is consistent across designs
