SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction

    The NRC is issuing a revision to an existing guide in the NRC'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.
    The recommendations in this guide describe actions that the staff 
of the NRC considers acceptable when the number of available electric 
power sources are less than the number of sources required by the 
limiting conditions for operation (LCOs) for a facility. This 
regulatory guide applies to single- and multiple-unit plants and is 
consistent with the improved standard technical specifications (iSTS) 
(NUREG-1430 through NUREG-1434). The LCO-required actions and specified 
completion times referred to in this guide are based on the completion 
times presented in Regulatory Guide 1.93, Revision 0, ``Availability of 
Electric Power Sources,'' issued December 1974, which have been 
incorporated into the required actions in the iSTS.
    The recommendations described in this guide are an approach that 
the NRC staff finds acceptable for satisfying some of the requirements 
of General design criterion (GDC) 17, ``Electric Power Systems,'' of 
Appendix A, ``General Design Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants,'' to 10 
CFR part 50, ``Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization 
Facilities.''

II. Further Information
