Fuel Cycle Oversight Process, 33303-33304 [2015-14288]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 112 / Thursday, June 11, 2015 / Notices avenues of effluent release; (iii) granting the exemption would not result in a significant increase in either occupational radiation exposure or public radiation exposure, because the requested exemption neither introduces new radiological hazards nor increases existing radiological hazards; (iv) granting the exemption would not result in a significant construction impact, because there are no construction activities associated with the requested exemption; and; (v) granting the exemption would not increase either the potential or consequences from radiological accidents such as a gross leak from an FSC, or the potential for hydrogen buildup or consequences from radiological accidents, because the exemption neither reduces the ability of the FSC to confine radioactive material nor creates new accident precursors at the FSV ISFSI. Accordingly, this exemption meets the criteria for a categorical exclusion in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(25)(vi)(C). IV. Conclusions Accordingly, the NRC has determined that, under 10 CFR 72.7, this exemption is authorized by law, will not endanger life or property or the common defense and security, and is otherwise in the public interest. Therefore, the Commission hereby grants DOE an exemption from 10 CFR 72.44(c)(1) and 10 CFR 72.44(c)(3) to delay by one year the scheduled June, 2015 leakage rate test under SR 3.3.1.1 for one FSC from each vault to be leakage rate tested every five years, and to delay by one year the scheduled June, 2015 hydrogen buildup test described in Chapter 9 of the FSV FSAR. These tests shall be completed no later than June, 2016. This exemption is effective as of June 4, 2015. Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 4th day of June, 2015. For the Commission. Mark Lombard, Director, Division of Spent Fuel Management, Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards.

II. Discussion

    In the Staff Requirements Memorandum for SECY-11-0140, 
``Enhancements to the Fuel Cycle Oversight Process,'' dated January 5, 
2012 (ADAMS Accession No. ML120050322), the Commission directed the NRC 
staff to develop a Revised Fuel Cycle Oversight Process (RFCOP). A 
portion of the RFCOP is the identification of cornerstones. The 
cornerstones are those aspects of licensee performance that are 
important to the mission and, therefore, merit regulatory oversight. 
The draft cornerstone technical document defines the cornerstones that 
will be used in the RFCOP and defines for each cornerstone, its 
objective and key

[[Page 33304]]

attributes that implement the objective. Each key attribute has one or 
more inspectable areas. Inspectable areas are those aspects of the 
physical facility or the licensee's programs or processes that need to 
be verified to assure that a key attribute of a cornerstone is 
achieved.
    The NRC is soliciting public comment on its draft cornerstone 
technical document that will be used as a portion of the RFCOP. The NRC 
staff will consider any public comments prior to finalizing the 
cornerstone technical document for the RFCOP.
