7. Interactive Session #2, 6/19/06.
An estimated 3,000 persons will have
engaged in one or more of these events.
An online survey of participants will be
conducted after the final event is
completed in June 2006. the survey will
give these individuals an opportunity to
provide feedback on the activities of the
PNL professional development program.
The evaluation will yield information
on what participants learned through
the program, their current partnering
activity, and their future interest in and
need for learning about partnering.
Information gathered will help IMLS
and CPB to identify potential areas for
improvement in PNL professional
development activities, determine the
level of need/interest for this resource
within the key stakeholder groups, and
assess the contribution of the
professional development resources to
meeting local needs and the IMLS and
CPB missions.

AGENCY:
SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that
the staff of the Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) has prepared a
model safety evaluation (SE) relating to
changes in Combustion Engineering
(CE) plant conditions leading to exigent
plant shutdown in technical
specifications (TS). The NRC staff has
also prepared a model no-significanthazards-consideration (NSHC)
determination relating to this matter and
a model license amendment request
(LAR). The purpose of these models is
to permit the NRC to efficiently process
amendments that propose to adopt
technical specifications changes,
designated as TSTF–426, related to
Topical Report WCAP–16125–NP,
Revision 0 (Rev 0), September 2003

Modifications to Selected Technical
Specifications for Conditions Leading to
Exigent Plant Shutdown,’’ which was
approved by an NRC SE dated July 9,
2004. Licensees of CE nuclear power
reactors to which the models apply
could then request amendments,
confirming the applicability of the SE
and NSHC determination to their
reactors. The NRC staff is requesting
comment on the model SE and model
NSHC determination prior to
announcing their availability for
referencing in license amendment
applications.
The comment period expires
August 21, 2006. Comments received
after this date will be considered if it is
practical to do so, but the Commission

Background
Regulatory Issue Summary 2000–06,
‘‘Consolidated Line Item Improvement
Process for Adopting Standard
Technical Specifications Changes for
Power Reactors,’’ was issued on March
20, 2000. The consolidated line item
improvement process (CLIIP) is
intended to improve the efficiency of
NRC licensing processes, by processing
proposed changes to the standard
technical specifications (STS) in a
manner that supports subsequent
license amendment applications. The
CLIIP includes an opportunity for the
public to comment on proposed changes
to the STS after a preliminary
assessment by the NRC staff and finding
PO 00000
Frm 00068
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
that the change will likely be offered for
adoption by licensees. This notice
solicits comment on a proposed change
to the STS that allows changes in CE
plant conditions leading to exigent plant
shutdown in technical specifications
(TS), if risk is assessed and managed.
The CLIIP directs the NRC staff to
evaluate any comments received for a
proposed change to the STS and to
either reconsider the change or
announce the availability of the change
for adoption by licensees. Licensees
opting to apply for this TS change are
responsible for reviewing the 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 NRC rules and procedures.
This notice involves the changes in
CE plant conditions leading to exigent
plant shutdown in TS, if risk is assessed
and managed. The change was proposed
in Topical Report WCAP–16125–NP Rev
0, September 2003 (previously CE
NPSD–1208, Rev 0), ‘‘Justification for
the Risk Informed Modifications to
Selected Technical Specifications for
Conditions Leading to Exigent Plant
Shutdown,’’ which was approved by an
NRC SE dated July 9, 2004. This change
was proposed for incorporation into the
STS by the owners groups participants
in the Technical Specification Task
Force (TSTF) and is designated TSTF–
426, Rev 0. TSTF–426, Rev 0, can be
viewed on the NRC’s web page at
https://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/
licensing/techspecs.html.
Applicability
This proposal to modify TS
requirements by the adoption of TSTF–
426, Rev 0, is applicable to all licensees
of CE plants who commit to WCAP–
16446–NP, Rev 0, ‘‘Actions to Preclude
Entry into LCO 3.0.3 Implementation
Guidance (PA–RMCS–0196),’’ June
2005.
To efficiently process the incoming
license amendment applications, the
staff requests that each licensee
applying for the changes proposed in
TSTF–426 include Bases for the
proposed TS consistent with the Bases
proposed in TSTF–426. The CLIIP does
not prevent licensees from requesting an
alternative approach or proposing the
changes without the requested Bases.
However, deviations from the approach
recommended in this notice may require
additional review by the NRC staff and
may increase the time and resources
needed for the review. Significant
variations from the approach, or
