AGENCY:
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is providing
supplemental information to an earlier
notice, appearing in the Federal
Register on March 4, 2015, which
requested comment on a draft interim
staff guidance (ISG), ‘‘Guidance for

final form, would supplement existing
guidance in NUREG–1520, ‘‘Standard
Review Plan for the Review of a License

by providing additional guidance and
the descriptions of proposed
quantitative standards for the NRC to
follow when evaluating the integrated
safety analysis (ISAs) of acute chemical
exposures. This action is necessary to
provide the public with the backfitting
information with respect to the draft
ISG, and includes references to the key
documents on backfitting issues. The
public comment period was originally
scheduled to close on May 18, 2015.
The NRC is extending the public
comment period on this action to allow
more time for members of the public to
review the additional information on
backfitting before submitting any
comments.
The due date of comments

II. Background
The NRC is providing supplemental
information to a notice requesting
comment on its draft ISG, ‘‘Guidance for
Evaluation of Acute Chemical
Exposures and Proposed Quantitative
Standards,’’ that was published in the
Federal Register (80 FR 11692; March 4,
2015). The draft ISG, if issued in final
form, would supplement existing
guidance in NUREG–1520, ‘‘Standard
Review Plan for the Review of a License
Application for a Fuel Cycle Facility’’
(ADAMS Accession No. ML101390110),
by providing additional guidance for the
NRC to follow when evaluating the ISAs
of acute chemical exposures, including
the descriptions of proposed
quantitative standards used to classify
exposure events using the general
criteria of section 70.61 of title 10 of the
Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR).
The draft ISG identifies sources of
information that the staff could use
when reviewing the proposed
quantitative standards.
This supplemental information
provides the NRC’s proposed position
on backfitting with respect to the draft
ISG, and includes references to the key
documents on backfitting. The public
comment period was originally
scheduled to close on May 18, 2015.
The NRC has decided to extend the
public comment period on the draft ISG
to allow more time for members of the
public to review the supplemental
information before submitting any
comments.
III. Supplemental Information
The NRC believes that the draft ISG,
if issued in final form, would not
constitute backfitting as defined in 10
CFR 70.76(a)(1). All fuel cycle facility
licensees are required to conduct and
maintain an ISA that analyzes the
chemical hazards of licensed material.
The performance requirements in 10
CFR 70.61(b) and (c) require that the
risk of each credible high or
intermediate consequence event be
limited, and such events include those
arising from an acute chemical exposure
as specified in 10 CFR 70.61(b)(4) and
(c)(4). For all credible event
consequences as specified in 10 CFR
70.61(b)(4) and (c)(4), the ISA summary
must describe the proposed quantitative
PO 00000
Frm 00074
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
21275
standards used to address acute
chemical exposures from credible event
sequences in accordance with 10 CFR
70.65(b)(7). This requirement is
reinforced by the ISA definition in 10
CFR 70.4. Subpart H of 10 CFR part 70
contains performance-based
requirements under which the
applicant/licensee must address all
credible hazards, and there is no
regulatory language limiting
consideration of chemical hazards to
specific exposure pathways. The draft
ISG is consistent with the regulatory
language in subpart H of 10 CFR part 70
and the NRC’s position that the ISA
should consider all acute chemical
exposures, including dermal and ocular
exposures.
Since the initial NRC approval of ISA
summaries, there have been a number of
hazardous chemical exposure incidents
involving dermal and ocular exposures
at fuel cycle facilities. Two of these
incidents of exposure have resulted in
intermediate or high consequences. See
Table 1, Fuel Cycle Facility Dermal and
Ocular Exposure Events Known to the
NRC Staff. The NRC believes that these
events demonstrate the need for fuel
cycle facilities to address all exposure
pathways when updating their safety
programs, ISAs, and ISA summaries.
The information contained in the draft
ISG reflects and reiterates existing NRC
regulatory requirements for the fuel
cycle facility licensees who will be
subject to the draft ISG. Therefore,
issuance of the draft ISG in final form
would not constitute backfitting. The
NRC’s positions on backfitting with
respect to consideration of all exposure
pathways (the subject of this draft ISG)
are set forth in a September 15, 2014,
letter to the Nuclear Energy Institute
(NEI) (ADAMS Accession No.
ML14251A150; Enclosure: ADAMS
Accession No. ML14251A149). The
NRC’s September 2014 letter responds
to a March 26, 2014, letter from NEI to
the NRC (ADAMS Accession No.
ML14086A267), which raises backfitting
issues with respect to consideration of
dermal and ocular exposures to
hazardous chemicals at NRC-regulated
fuel cycle facilities. The NEI also
provided their views on backfitting with
respect to consideration of dermal and
ocular exposures to hazardous
chemicals at NRC-regulated fuel cycle
facilities in a November 7, 2014, letter
to the General Counsel of the NRC
(ADAMS Accession No. ML14322B019).

Table 1 presents all events involving chemical exposures at fuel cycle facilities known to the
NRC staff based upon staff review of the Nuclear Medical Events Database (NMED). There may
be additional events not included in this Table. This Table includes some chemical exposure
events which were not classified as intermediate or high consequence, because small changes in
scenario (e.g., location of the worker relative to the spill/release, magnitude of the spill/release,
how fast a worker can exit an area, timeliness and nature of first aid) can change the
classification of the severity of an event (classified in accordance with the 10 CFR 70.61 criteria).
This event may be classified as intermediate or high consequence, and was the subject of NRC
Information Notice (IN) 2007-022 (ADAMS Accession No. ML071410230). Another chemical
exposure event was identified in IN 2007-022, but is not included in this Table because the event
involved an inhalation exposure.
