ACTION: Solicitation of public comment. mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES AGENCY: SUMMARY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is soliciting public comment on its Proposed License Renewal Interim Staff Guidance LR– ISG–2007–02 (LR–ISG) for changes to its Generic Aging Lesson Learned (GALL) Report Aging Management Program (AMP) XI.E6, ‘‘Electrical Cable Connections Not Subject to 10 CFR 50.49 Environmental Qualification Requirements.’’ This LR–ISG clarifies and recommends a one-time inspection to ensure that either aging of metallic cable connections is not occurring or an existing preventive maintenance program is effective, such that a periodic inspection is not needed. The NRC staff issues LR–ISGs to facilitate timely implementation of the license renewal rule and to review activities associated with an LRA. Upon receiving public comments, the NRC staff will evaluate the comments and make a determination to incorporate the comments, as appropriate. Once the NRC staff completes the LR–ISG, it will issue the LR–ISG for NRC and industry use. The NRC staff will also incorporate the approved LR–ISG into the next revision of the license renewal guidance documents. DATES: Comments may be submitted by October 22, 2007. Comments received after this date will be considered, if it is practical to do so, but the Commission is able to ensure VerDate Aug<31>2005 18:25 Sep 05, 2007 Jkt 211001 consideration only for comments received on or before this date.

Attachment 2 to this Federal Register notice, entitled Proposed License Renewal Interim Staff Guidance LR– ISG–2007–02: Changes to Generic Aging Lesson Learned (GALL) Report Aging Management Program (AMP) XI.E6, ‘‘Electrical Cable Connections Not Subject to 10 CFR 50.49 Environmental Qualification Requirements,’’ contains the proposed revisions to GALL AMP XI.E6. The NRC staff is issuing this notice to solicit public comments on the proposed LR–ISG–2007–02. After the NRC staff considers any public comments, it will make a determination regarding issuance of the proposed LR– ISG. For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Attachment 1—Staff Position and Rationale for the Proposed License Renewal Interim Staff Guidance LR– ISG–2007–02: Changes to Generic Aging Lesson Learned (GALL) Report Aging Management Program (AMP) XI.E6, ‘‘Electrical Cable Connections Not Subject to 10 CFR 50.49 Environmental Qualification Requirements’’ Staff Position The staff is proposing to revise GALL AMP XI.E6 to recommend a one-time inspection for electrical cable connections not subject to 10 CFR 50.49 environmental qualification requirement instead of the period inspection as currently stated in GALL AMP XI.E6. The staff determined that this one-time inspection, on representative sample basis, is adequate to ensure that either aging of metallic cable connections is not occurring and/ or existing preventive maintenance program is effective such that a periodic inspection program is not needed. Rationale In reviewing the industry’s documents and comments, the staff determined that although the current GALL AMP XI.E6 was based on technical bases of Electric Power Research Institute documents, Sandia National Laboratories Report, SAND 96– 0344, and thermography data, few operating experiences related to failed connection due to aging had been identified. Most of the operating experience related to failed connection are due to human errors or maintenance practices. The operating experience cannot support a periodic inspection as currently recommended in GALL AMP XI.E6. However, because there have been a limited number of age related failures of cable connections, a one-time inspection of the metallic portion of electrical cable connections is warranted. On this basis, the staff is revising GALL AMP XI.E6 to clarify and recommend a one-time inspection, on a representative sampling basis, to ensure that either aging of metallic cable connections is not occurring or an existing preventive maintenance program is effective, such that a periodic inspection is not needed.
