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 1.174,
‘‘An Approach For Using Probabilistic
Risk Assessment In Risk-Informed
Decisions on Plant-Specific Changes to
the Licensing Basis,’’ was issued with a
temporary identification as Draft
Regulatory Guide, DG–1226. This
regulatory guide describes an acceptable
method for the licensee and NRC staff
to use in assessing the nature and
impact of licensing basis (LB) changes
when the licensee chooses to support, or
is requested by the staff to support, the
changes with risk information. The NRC
staff will review these LB changes by
considering engineering issues and
applying risk insights. Licensees that
submit risk information (whether on
their own initiative or at the request of
the staff) should address each of the
principles of risk-informed regulation
discussed in this regulatory guide.
Licensees should identify how their
chosen approaches and methods
(whether quantitative or qualitative,
deterministic or probabilistic), data, and
criteria for considering risk are
appropriate for the decision to be made.
The guidance provided in this
regulatory guide does not preclude other
approaches for requesting changes to the
LB. Rather, the staff intends for this
regulatory guide to improve consistency
in regulatory decisions in areas in
which the results of risk analyses are
used to help justify regulatory action. As
such, the principles, process, and
approach discussed herein also provide
useful guidance for the application of
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 223001
risk information to a broader set of
activities than plant-specific changes to
a plant’s LB (i.e., generic activities), and
licensees are encouraged to use this
guidance in that regard.
The NRC issues regulatory guides to
describe to the public methods that the
staff considers acceptable for use in
implementing specific parts of the
agency’s regulations, to explain
techniques that the staff uses in
evaluating specific problems or
postulated accidents, and to provide
guidance to applicants. Regulatory
guides are not substitutes for regulations
and compliance with them is not
required.
II. Further Information
In April 2009, DG–1226 was
published with a public comment
period of 60 days from the issuance of
the guide. The public comment period
closed on November 03, 2009.
Electronic copies of Regulatory Guide
1.174, 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–1F21, One White Flint North,
11555 Rockville Pike, Rockville,
Maryland 20852–2738. The PDR’s

Regulatory guides are not
copyrighted, and NRC approval is not
required to reproduce them.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is
hereby given that, pursuant to 39 U.S.C.
404(d), on May 3, 2011, the Commission
received a petition for review of the
closing of the Gwynedd, Pennsylvania
post office. The petition, which was
filed by Christina Surowiec (Petitioner),
is postmarked May 2, 2011, and was
posted on the Commission’s Web site
May 4, 2011. The Commission hereby
institutes a proceeding under 39 U.S.C.
404(d)(5) and designates the case as
Docket No. A2011–15 to consider
Petitioner’s appeal. If Petitioner would
like to further explain her position with
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION or facts,
Petitioner may either file a Participant
Statement on PRC Form 61 or file a brief
with the Commission no later than June
7, 2011.
Categories of issues apparently raised.
Preliminarily, Petitioner raises several
issues, including failure to consider the
effect on the community (see 39 U.S.C.
404(d)(2)(A)(i)), and failure to observe
procedures required by law (see 39
U.S.C. 404(d)(5)(B)). In addition,
Petitioner contends that the Postal
Service failed to consider relevant facts,
and that its determination to close the
Gwynedd post office is arbitrary and
capricious.
After the Postal Service files the
administrative record and the
Commission reviews it, the Commission
may find that there are more legal issues
than those set forth above, or that the
Postal Service’s determination disposes
of one or more of those issues. The
