ANSI/NIRMA Standard
CM 1.0 – 2007 Update
Presented By:
Rich Giska
NIRMA ANSI Coordinator
1
Background
ANSI/NIRMA Standard CM 1.0
• ANSI/NIRMA CM 1.0, “Guidelines for Configuration
Management of Nuclear Facilities”
– Initial standard was developed based on NIRMA Technical
Guideline TG16-1998
– NIRMA is accredited as an ANSI Standard Development
Organization (SDO) and authorized to develop ANSI
Standards
– Standards are issued and revised per NIRMA administrative
procedures that comply with ANSI requirements
– NIRMA, in collaboration with CMBG, issued the first publication
of ANSI/NIRMA CM 1.0 in 2000
2
Background
ANSI/NIRMA Standard CM 1.0
• An ANSI requirement for maintaining an ANSI
Standard effective is that a published standard must be
revisited within five (5) years with one of the following
actions being taken:
–
–
–
–
Revise
Reaffirm As-Is (Still Adequate and Effective)
Suspend
Retire
• The five (5) year period is the time frame when one of
the above actions should be completed
3
Background
ANSI/NIRMA Standard CM 1.0
• Unfortunately, this ANSI requirement was
misinterpreted as meaning the next “cycle” had to
begin within five (5) years of publishing a standard
• Once this issue was recognized, NIRMA had to petition
ANSI for an exception to keep the CM Standard
effective
• The petition was granted and NIRMA, again in
collaboration with CMBG, began the revision process
• The result was the issuance of ANSI/NIRMA CM 1.0 2007
4
Next Round
ANSI/NIRMA Standard CM 1.0
• Now we are clear that the ANSI/NIRMA Standard must
be published “within” five (5) years, i.e., action taken by
2012
• The process must be initiated through a notice in the
ANSI Standards Action publication approximately one
(1) year in advance
• NIRMA must also utilize other communication methods
to make those potentially, or in fact, materially affected
by the standard aware of its potential revision or other
action
5
The Need
ANSI/NIRMA Standard CM 1.0
• Based on the time line for compliance with the ANSI
requirements, NIRMA must decide what action it will
take for the 2012 publication by the end of August
• NIRMA will solicit inputs from select nuclear industry
groups regarding what action to take and contributions
should a revision be pursued
• CMBG represents the main body of CM professionals
in the nuclear power industry; thus, CMBG’s inputs,
contributions and support for the revision to this
ANSI/NIRMA CM Standard are being sought
6
Current State
ANSI/NIRMA Standard CM 1.0
• The current 2007 revision of the CM Standard 1.0, and
its 3-ball model has been very effective as a reference
for CM Programs for existing operating facilities
• It has also served as a foundational document and
reference for Pre-Operational CM Programs being
developed for new nuclear plant projects
• EPRI has issued a comprehensive Technical Report on
CM Programs for new builds which leverages the CM
principles embedded in the ANSI/NIRMA CM Standard
• ANSI/NIRMA Standard CM 1.0 – 2007 “Is Working”
7
The Request
ANSI/NIRMA Standard CM 1.0
• NIRMA requests participation from the CMBG
conference attendees in several areas:
– Provide feedback and inputs relative to the action to be taken
for the 2012 version of the ANSI/NIRMA CM Standard
– Given a revision is most likely, provide inputs and
recommended changes to the 2007 version of the Standard
– Express ideas regarding the scope of the Standard, i.e., retain
its focus on operating nuclear facilities or extend its scope to
include new nuclear project Pre-Operational CM
– Provide thoughts on the interface between the CM Standard
and EPRI’s Technical Document on CM for new builds
8
The Opportunities
ANSI/NIRMA Standard CM 1.0
• There will be a Breakout Session this afternoon at 1:00
to discuss the above issues regarding the next action
and probable revision of the ANSI/NIRMA Standard
• It will an open session with a few seeded topics to
generate discussion on potential changes
• If you can’t make the session but would like to
contribute your thoughts, please contact me directly
• In addition, there is a need for support during the actual
revision process as well, so if you’d like to be a direct
participant in that we’d love to have you onboard
