SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Introduction
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is reissuing 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.
General Design Criterion 4,
‘‘Environmental and Dynamic Effects
Design Bases,’’ of Appendix A, ‘‘General
Design Criteria for Nuclear Power
Plants,’’ to Title 10 of the Code of
Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 50,
‘‘Domestic Licensing of Production and
Utilization Facilities,’’ requires, in part,
that structures, systems, and
components important to safety be
appropriately protected against the
effects of missiles that might result from
equipment failures. Failures that could
occur in the large steam turbines of the
main turbine-generator sets have the
potential for producing large highenergy missiles.
This guide describes methods
acceptable to the NRC staff for
protecting structures, systems, and
components (SSCs) against missiles
resulting from turbine failure by the
appropriate orientation and placement
of the turbine-generator set, the
management of the probability of
turbine missile generation, and the use
of missile barriers. The guide also
identifies SSCs to be considered in
designing protection from turbine
missiles.
The draft regulatory guide (DG) is
temporarily identified by its task
number, DG–1217, which should be
mentioned in all related
correspondence. DG–1217 is proposed
Revision 2 of Regulatory Guide 1.115,
VerDate Mar<15>2010
17:26 May 05, 2011
Jkt 223001
Revision 1, dated July 1977, ‘‘Protection
Against Turbine Missiles.’’ DG–1217
was previously issued for comment
November 2, 2009 (74 FR 56672). The
draft guide is being reissued to allow
further public review and comment
following additional changes to the
document. DG–1217 now identifies that
applicants who choose to use a risk
informed approach to demonstrate
adequate protection against turbine
missiles would be considered on a caseby-case basis. Additionally, DG–1217
uses the term ‘essential’, instead of the
term ‘safety related’ to define affected
SSCs.
Previously received public comments
and the staff’s consideration may be
reviewed electronically under the NRC’s
Agencywide Documents Access and
Management System (ADAMS)
Accession Number ML101660585.
II. Further Information
The NRC staff is soliciting comments
on DG–1217. Comments may be
accompanied by relevant information or
supporting data and should mention
DG–1217 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).
ADDRESSES: You may submit
comments by any one of the following
methods. Please include Docket ID
NRC–2009–0481 in the subject line of
your comments. Comments submitted in
writing or in electronic form will be
posted on the NRC Web site and on the
Federal rulemaking website
Regulations.gov. Because your
comments will not be edited to remove
any identifying or contact information,
the NRC cautions you against including
any information in your submission that
you do not want to be publicly
disclosed.
The NRC requests that any party
soliciting or aggregating comments
received from other persons for
submission to the NRC inform those
persons that the NRC will not edit their
comments to remove any identifying or
contact information, and therefore, they
should not include any information in
their comments that they do not want
publicly disclosed.
