SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that
the staff of the Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) has prepared a
model Application related to changes to
the Diesel Fuel Oil Testing Programs.
The changes relocate references to

documents and adds alternate criteria to
the ‘‘clear and bright’’ acceptance test
for new fuel oil. The NRC staff has also
prepared a model safety evaluation (SE)
and no significant hazards consideration
(NSHC) determination relating to this
matter. The purpose of these models is
to permit the NRC to efficiently process
amendments that propose to adopt the
associated changes into plant-specific
technical specifications (TS). Licensees
of nuclear power reactors to which the
models apply could request
amendments confirming the
applicability of the SE and NSHC
determination to their reactors.
DATES: The NRC staff issued a Federal
Register Notice (71 FR 9179, February
22, 2006) that provided a model SE and
a model NSHC determination relating to
changes to the Diesel Fuel Oil Testing
Programs. The NRC staff hereby
announces that the model SE and NSHC
determination may be referenced in
plant-specific applications to adopt the
changes. The staff has posted a model
application on the NRC Web site to
assist licensees in using the
consolidated line item improvement
process (CLIIP) to revise TS Diesel Fuel
Oil Testing Programs. The NRC staff can
most efficiently consider applications
based upon the model application if the
application is submitted within one year
of this Federal Register Notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Regulatory
Issue Summary 2000–06, ‘‘Consolidated
Line Item Improvement Process for
Adopting Standard Technical
Specification Changes for Power
Reactors,’’ was issued on March 20,
2000. The CLIIP includes an
opportunity for the public to comment
on proposed changes to operating
licenses, including the technical
specifications (TS), after a preliminary
assessment by the NRC staff and a
finding that the change will likely be
offered for adoption by licensees. The
CLIIP directs the NRC staff to evaluate
any comments received for a proposed
generic change to operating licenses and
to either reconsider the change or to
proceed with announcing the
availability of the change for proposed
adoption by licensees. Those licensees
opting to apply for the subject change to
operating licenses are responsible for
reviewing the NRC staff’s evaluation,
referencing the applicable technical
justifications, and providing any
PO 00000
Frm 00096

necessary plant-specific information.
Each amendment application made in
response to the notice of availability
will be processed and noticed in
accordance with applicable rules and
NRC procedures. This notice involves
changes to the Diesel Fuel Oil Testing
Programs.
Applicability: This proposed change
to the standard technical specifications
(STS) was submitted by the Technical
Specifications Task Force (TSTF) in
TSTF–374, ‘‘Revision to TS 5.5.13 and
Associated TS Bases for Diesel Fuel
Oil,’’ and is applicable to all nuclear
power reactors.
This proposal to modify technical
specification requirements by the
adoption of TSTF–374 is applicable to
all licensees of Combustion Engineering,
Babcock & Wilcox, Westinghouse
Pressurized Water Reactors, and General
Electric Boiling Water Reactors who
have adopted or will adopt in
conjunction with the change, technical
specification requirements for a Bases
control program consistent with the TS
Bases Control Program described in
Section 5.5 of the STS. Licensees that
have not adopted requirements for a
Bases control program by converting to
the improved STS or by other means,
are requested to include the
requirements for a Bases control
program consistent with the STS in
their application for the change. The
need for a Bases control program stems
from the need for adequate regulatory
control of some key elements of the
proposal that are contained in the Bases
upon adoption of TSTF–374. The staff is
requesting that the Bases changes be
included with the proposed license
amendments consistent with the Bases
in TSTF–374. To ensure that the overall
change, including the Bases, includes
appropriate regulatory controls, the staff
plans to condition the issuance of each
license amendment on the licensee’s
incorporation of the changes into the
Bases document and on requiring the
licensee to control the changes in
accordance with the Bases Control
Program.
To efficiently process the incoming
license amendment applications, the
NRC staff requests that each license
applying for the changes addressed in
TSTF–374 use the CLIIP to submit an
application that adheres to the following
model. Any deviations from the model
application should be explained in the
licensee’s submittal.
The CLIIP does not prevent licensees
from requesting an alternate approach or
proposing changes other than those
proposed in TSTF–374. Variations from
the approach recommended in this
notice may, however, require additional

rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES
review by the NRC staff and may
increase the time and resources needed
for the review. Significant variations
from the approach, or inclusion of
additional changes to the license, will
result in staff rejection of the submittal.
Instead, licensees desiring significant
variations and/or additional changes
should submit a LAR that does not
claim to adopt TSTF–374.
Public Notices: In a Federal Register
Notice dated February 22, 2006 (71 FRN
9179), the NRC staff requested comment
on the use of the CLIIP to process
requests to adopt the TSTF–374
changes. In addition, there have been
multiple notices published for plantspecific amendment requests to adopt
changes similar to those described in
this notice.
The NRC staff’s model SE and model
application may be examined, and/or
copied for a fee, at the NRC’s Public
Document Room, located at One White
Flint North, 11555 Rockville Pike (first
floor), Rockville, Maryland. Publicly
available records are accessible
electronically from the Agencywide
Documents Access and Management
System (ADAMS) Public Library
component on the NRC Web site, (the
Electronic Reading Room).
The NRC staff received no responses
following the notice published February
22, 2006 (71 FRN 9179), soliciting
comments on the model SE and NSHC
determination related to the TSTF–374
changes. The NRC staff finds that the
previously published models remain
appropriate references and has chosen
not to republish the model SE and
model NSHC determination in this
notice. As described in the model
application prepared by the NRC staff,
licensees may reference in their plantspecific applications to adopt the TSTF–
374 changes, the model SE, NSHC
determination, and environmental
assessment previously published in the
Federal Register (71 FRN 9179);
February 22, 2006).

NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
Technical Specification Improvement To Revise Diesel Fuel Oil
Testing Program Using the Consolidated Line Item Improvement Process
AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
ACTION: Notice of availability.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the staff of the Nuclear
Regulatory Commission (NRC) has prepared a model Application related to
changes to the Diesel Fuel Oil Testing Programs. The changes relocate
references to specific American Society for Testing and Materials
(ASTM) standards for fuel oil testing to licensee-controlled documents
and adds alternate criteria to the ``clear and bright'' acceptance test
for new fuel oil. The NRC staff has also prepared a model safety
evaluation (SE) and no significant hazards consideration (NSHC)
determination relating to this matter. The purpose of these models is
to permit the NRC to efficiently process amendments that propose to
adopt the associated changes into plant-specific technical
specifications (TS). Licensees of nuclear power reactors to which the
models apply could request amendments confirming the applicability of
the SE and NSHC determination to their reactors.
DATES: The NRC staff issued a Federal Register Notice (71 FR 9179,
February 22, 2006) that provided a model SE and a model NSHC
determination relating to changes to the Diesel Fuel Oil Testing
Programs. The NRC staff hereby announces that the model SE and NSHC
determination may be referenced in plant-specific applications to adopt
the changes. The staff has posted a model application on the NRC Web
site to assist licensees in using the consolidated line item
improvement process (CLIIP) to revise TS Diesel Fuel Oil Testing
Programs. The NRC staff can most efficiently consider applications
based upon the model application if the application is submitted within
one year of this Federal Register Notice.

Division of Inspection and Regional Support, Office of Nuclear Reactor
Regulation, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-
0001, telephone 301-415-1189.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Regulatory Issue Summary 2000-06,
``Consolidated Line Item Improvement Process for Adopting Standard
Technical Specification Changes for Power Reactors,'' was issued on
March 20, 2000. The CLIIP includes an opportunity for the public to
comment on proposed changes to operating licenses, including the
technical specifications (TS), after a preliminary assessment by the
NRC staff and a finding that the change will likely be offered for
adoption by licensees. The CLIIP directs the NRC staff to evaluate any
comments received for a proposed generic change to operating licenses
and to either reconsider the change or to proceed with announcing the
availability of the change for proposed adoption by licensees. Those
licensees opting to apply for the subject change to operating licenses
are responsible for reviewing the NRC staff's evaluation, referencing
the applicable technical justifications, and providing any necessary
plant-specific information. Each amendment application made in response
to the notice of availability will be processed and noticed in
accordance with applicable rules and NRC procedures. This notice
involves changes to the Diesel Fuel Oil Testing Programs.
Applicability: This proposed change to the standard technical
specifications (STS) was submitted by the Technical Specifications Task
Force (TSTF) in TSTF-374, ``Revision to TS 5.5.13 and Associated TS
Bases for Diesel Fuel Oil,'' and is applicable to all nuclear power
reactors.
This proposal to modify technical specification requirements by the
adoption of TSTF-374 is applicable to all licensees of Combustion
Engineering, Babcock & Wilcox, Westinghouse Pressurized Water Reactors,
and General Electric Boiling Water Reactors who have adopted or will
adopt in conjunction with the change, technical specification
requirements for a Bases control program consistent with the TS Bases
Control Program described in Section 5.5 of the STS. Licensees that
have not adopted requirements for a Bases control program by converting
to the improved STS or by other means, are requested to include the
requirements for a Bases control program consistent with the STS in
their application for the change. The need for a Bases control program
stems from the need for adequate regulatory control of some key
elements of the proposal that are contained in the Bases upon adoption
of TSTF-374. The staff is requesting that the Bases changes be included
with the proposed license amendments consistent with the Bases in TSTF-
374. To ensure that the overall change, including the Bases, includes
appropriate regulatory controls, the staff plans to condition the
issuance of each license amendment on the licensee's incorporation of
the changes into the Bases document and on requiring the licensee to
control the changes in accordance with the Bases Control Program.
To efficiently process the incoming license amendment applications,
the NRC staff requests that each license applying for the changes
addressed in TSTF-374 use the CLIIP to submit an application that
adheres to the following model. Any deviations from the model
application should be explained in the licensee's submittal.
The CLIIP does not prevent licensees from requesting an alternate
approach or proposing changes other than those proposed in TSTF-374.
Variations from the approach recommended in this notice may, however,
require additional
[[Page 20736]]
review by the NRC staff and may increase the time and resources needed
for the review. Significant variations from the approach, or inclusion
of additional changes to the license, will result in staff rejection of
the submittal. Instead, licensees desiring significant variations and/
or additional changes should submit a LAR that does not claim to adopt
TSTF-374.
Public Notices: In a Federal Register Notice dated February 22,
2006 (71 FRN 9179), the NRC staff requested comment on the use of the
CLIIP to process requests to adopt the TSTF-374 changes. In addition,
there have been multiple notices published for plant-specific amendment
requests to adopt changes similar to those described in this notice.
The NRC staff's model SE and model application may be examined,
and/or copied for a fee, at the NRC's Public Document Room, located at
One White Flint North, 11555 Rockville Pike (first floor), Rockville,
Maryland. Publicly available records are accessible electronically from
the Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Public
Library component on the NRC Web site, (the Electronic Reading Room).
The NRC staff received no responses following the notice published
February 22, 2006 (71 FRN 9179), soliciting comments on the model SE
and NSHC determination related to the TSTF-374 changes. The NRC staff
finds that the previously published models remain appropriate
references and has chosen not to republish the model SE and model NSHC
determination in this notice. As described in the model application
prepared by the NRC staff, licensees may reference in their plant-
specific applications to adopt the TSTF-374 changes, the model SE, NSHC
determination, and environmental assessment previously published in the
Federal Register (71 FRN 9179); February 22, 2006).
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 14th day of April 2006.
