Regulatory Guide 1.216,
‘‘Containment Structural Integrity
Evaluation for Internal Pressure
Loadings Above Design-Basis Pressure,’’
was issued with a temporary
identification as Draft Regulatory Guide,
DG–1203. This guide describes methods
that the NRC staff considers acceptable
for (1) predicting the internal pressure
capacity for containment structures
above the design-basis accident
pressure, (2) demonstrating containment
structural integrity related to
combustible gas control, and (3)
demonstrating containment structural
integrity to meet the Commission’s
performance goals related to the
prevention and mitigation of severe
accidents. It provides guidance on
methods for satisfying requirements in
Title 10 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (10 CFR) Part 52, ‘‘Licenses,
Certifications, and Approvals for
Nuclear Power Plants.’’ Requirements in
10 CFR 52.47, ‘‘Contents of
Applications; Technical Information,’’
and in 10 CFR 52.79, ‘‘Contents of
Applications; Technical Information in
Final Safety Analysis Report [FSAR],’’
relate to the structural integrity of
containments under internal
pressurization that pertain to the
containment structural capacity above
design-basis pressures, to combustible
gas control, and to the prevention and
mitigation of severe accidents. This
guidance is intended to be consistent
with the Commission’s goals and other
related guidance, as discussed in the
remainder of this section. This
regulatory guide does not address
requirements and guidance for the
structural evaluation of containments
for design-basis pressure.
II. Further Information
In December 2008, DG–1203 was
published with a public comment
period of 60 days from the issuance of
the guide. The public comment period
closed on February 9, 2009. The staff’s
responses to the public comments
received are located in the NRC’s
Agencywide Documents Access and
Management System under Accession
Number ML092800554. The regulatory
analysis may be found in ADAMS under
Accession No. ML101890047. Electronic
copies of RG 1.216 are available through
the NRC’s public Web site under
‘‘Regulatory Guides’’ at https://

Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
48383
The Office
of Personnel Management (OPM)
established the Executive Secretariat
and Ombudsman January 4, 2010. OPM
established the Ombudsman to provide
a neutral, independent and confidential
resource to review, identify, facilitate
and timely resolve individual claims,
concerns or complaints by OPM
customers and employees. In order to
provide the best service to OPM’s
customers, one form is required and two
forms are optional. The mandatory form,
Privacy Release, enables representatives
of the Ombudsman to obtain any
information requested, examine and/or
copy any records related to a request for
assistance to identify, facilitate and
timely resolve individuals’ claims,
concerns or complaints by OPM
customers and employees. This allows
OPM’s representatives to properly
perform their role and not violate
customer privacy without the proper
authorization. The second form, Third
Party Authorization, allows customers
of the Ombudsman to designate
someone in addition to themselves, or
other than themselves, to give and
receive information about their request
for assistance. The Third Party
Authorization will not be used in every
request for assistance. The third form,
Request for Assistance, is web-enabled
and provides customers a useful tool to
provide OPM information it needs to
expediently gather the facts and resolve
the concern brought before the
Ombudsman.
