SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Introduction
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is issuing a revision
to an existing guide in the agency’s
‘‘Regulatory Guide’’ series. This series
was developed to describe and make
available to the public information such
as methods that are acceptable to the
NRC staff for implementing specific
parts of the agency’s regulations,
techniques that the staff uses in
evaluating specific problems or
postulated accidents, and data that the
staff needs in its review of applications
for permits and licenses.
Revision 2 of Regulatory Guide 3.71,
entitled, ‘‘Nuclear Criticality Safety
Standards for Fuels and Material
Facilities,’’ was issued with a temporary
identification as Draft Regulatory Guide,
DG–3030. Regulatory Guide 3.71
provides applicants, licensees, and
certificate holders with updated
guidance concerning criticality safety
standards that the NRC has endorsed for
use with nuclear fuels and material
facilities. As such, Regulatory Guide
3.71 describes methods that the NRC
staff considers acceptable for complying
with the NRC’s regulations in Title 10,
of the Code of Federal Regulations, parts
70, ‘‘Domestic Licensing of Special
Nuclear Material,’’ and 76, ‘‘Certification
of Gaseous Diffusion Plants’’ (10 CFR
parts 70 and 76).
The NRC staff has revised Regulatory
Guide 3.71 to provide guidance on
complying with these portions of the
VerDate Mar<15>2010
15:48 Dec 30, 2010
Jkt 223001
NRC’s regulations. This guide describes
procedures for preventing nuclear
criticality accidents in operations that
involve handling, processing, storing,
and/or transporting special nuclear
material at fuel and material facilities. It
also endorses specific nuclear criticality
safety standards developed by the
American Nuclear Society’s Standards
Subcommittee 8 (ANS–8), ‘‘Operations
with Fissionable Materials Outside
Reactors.’’ Regulatory Guide 3.71 is not
intended for use by nuclear reactor
licensees.
In July 2010, DG–3030 was published
with a public comment period of 60
days from the issuance of the guide. The
public comment period closed on
September 29, 2010. The staff’s
responses to the public comments
received are located in the NRC’s
Agencywide Documents Access and
Management System under Accession
Number ML103210349. Electronic
copies of Regulatory guide 3.71,
Revision 2 are available through the
NRC’s public Web site under
‘‘Regulatory Guides’’ at https://
www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doccollections/.
In addition, regulatory guides are
available for inspection at the NRC’s
Public Document Room (PDR) located at
Room O–1F 21, One White Flint North,
11555 Rockville Pike, Rockville,
Maryland 20852–2738. The PDR’s
mailing address is USNRC PDR,
Washington, DC 20555–0001. The PDR
can also be reached by telephone: 301–

COMMISSION
[NRC–2009–0444]
Notice of Availability of the Models for
Plant-Specific Adoption of Technical
Specifications Task Force Traveler
TSTF–513, Revision 3, ‘‘Revise PWR
Operability Requirements and Actions
for RCS Leakage Instrumentation’’
AGENCY: U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC).
ACTION: Notice of Availability.
SUMMARY: As part of the consolidated
line item improvement process (CLIIP),
the NRC is announcing the availability
of the model application (with model no
significant hazards consideration
determination) and model safety
evaluation (SE) for the plant-specific
adoption of Technical Specifications
Task Force (TSTF) Traveler TSTF–513,
Revision 3, ‘‘Revise PWR [pressurized
water reactor] Operability Requirements
and Actions for RCS [reactor coolant
system] Leakage Instrumentation.’’
TSTF–513, Revision 3, is available in
the Agencywide Documents Access and
Management System (ADAMS) under
Accession Number ML102360355. The
proposed changes would revise the
Standard Technical Specifications (STS)
to define a new time limit for restoring
inoperable RCS leakage detection
instrumentation to operable status and
establish alternate methods of
monitoring RCS leakage when one or
more required monitors are inoperable.
Changes to the Technical Specifications
(TS) Bases are included, which reflect
the proposed changes and more
accurately reflect the contents of the
facility design bases related to the
operability of the RCS leakage detection
instrumentation. The CLIIP model SE
will facilitate expedited approval of
plant-specific adoption of TSTF–513,
Revision 3.
Documents: You can access publicly
available documents related to this
notice using the following methods:
NRC’s Public Document Room (PDR):
The public may examine and have

TSTF–
513, Revision 3, is applicable to PWR
plants. Licensees opting to apply for this
TS change are responsible for reviewing
TSTF–513, Revision 3, and the NRC
staff’s model SE, referencing the
applicable technical justifications,
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
providing any necessary plant-specific
information, and assessing the
completeness and accuracy of their
license amendment request (LAR). It is
acceptable for licensees to use plantspecific system names, TS numbering
and titles. The NRC will process each
amendment application responding to
this notice of availability according to
applicable NRC rules and procedures.
The CLIIP does not prevent licensees
from requesting an alternate approach or
proposing changes other than those
proposed in TSTF–513, Revision 3.
However, significant deviations from
the approach recommended in this
notice or the inclusion of additional
changes to the license require additional
NRC staff review and would not be
reviewed as a part of the CLIIP. This
may increase the time and resources
needed for the review or result in NRC
staff rejection of the LAR. Licensees
desiring significant deviations or
additional changes should instead
submit an LAR that does not claim to
adopt TSTF–513, Revision 3.
