This series was developed to describe and make available to the public such information as methods that are acceptable to the NRC staff for implementing specific parts of the NRC’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. The draft regulatory guide (DG), entitled ‘‘Qualification of Connection Assemblies for Nuclear Power Plants,’’ is temporarily identified by its task number, DG–1254, which should be mentioned in all related correspondence. DG–1254 is proposed Revision 1 of Regulatory Guide 1.156, dated November 1987. This guide describes a method that the NRC considers acceptable for complying with the Commission’s regulations on the environmental qualification of connection assemblies and environmental seals in combination with cables or wires as assemblies for service in nuclear power plants. The environmental qualification helps ensure that connection assemblies can PO 00000 Frm 00044 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 10917 perform their safety functions during and after a design-basis event. Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 50, ‘‘Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities’’ (10 CFR Part 50), Appendix B, ‘‘Quality Assurance Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants and Fuel Reprocessing Plants,’’ Criterion III, ‘‘Design Control,’’ requires, in part, that test programs used to verify the adequacy of specific design features include suitable qualification testing of a prototype unit under the most adverse design conditions. In 10 CFR 50.49, ‘‘Environmental Qualification of Electric Equipment Important to Safety for Nuclear Power Plants,’’ the NRC requires that certain electric equipment important to safety be qualified for its application and specified performance. The regulation also identifies requirements for establishing environmental qualification methods and qualification parameters. II. Further Information The NRC staff is soliciting comments on DG–1254. Comments may be accompanied by relevant information or supporting data and should mention DG–1254 in the subject line. Comments submitted in writing or in electronic form will be made available to the public in their entirety through the NRC’s Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or Commission) is 
issuing for public comment a draft guide in the agency's ``Regulatory 
Guide'' series. This series was developed to describe and make 
available to the public such information as methods that are acceptable 
to the NRC staff for implementing specific parts of the NRC'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.
    The draft regulatory guide (DG), entitled ``Qualification of 
Connection Assemblies for Nuclear Power Plants,'' is temporarily 
identified by its task number, DG-1254, which should be mentioned in 
all related correspondence. DG-1254 is proposed Revision 1 of 
Regulatory Guide 1.156, dated November 1987.
    This guide describes a method that the NRC considers acceptable for 
complying with the Commission's regulations on the environmental 
qualification of connection assemblies and environmental seals in 
combination with cables or wires as assemblies for service in nuclear 
power plants. The environmental qualification helps ensure that 
connection assemblies can perform their safety functions during and 
after a design-basis event.
    Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 50, ``Domestic 
Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities'' (10 CFR Part 50), 
Appendix B, ``Quality Assurance Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants and 
Fuel Reprocessing Plants,'' Criterion III, ``Design Control,'' 
requires, in part, that test programs used to verify the adequacy of 
specific design features include suitable qualification testing of a 
prototype unit under the most adverse design conditions.
    In 10 CFR 50.49, ``Environmental Qualification of Electric 
Equipment Important to Safety for Nuclear Power Plants,'' the NRC 
requires that certain electric equipment important to safety be 
qualified for its application and specified performance. The regulation 
also identifies requirements for establishing environmental 
qualification methods and qualification parameters.
