I. Background
On September 30, 2013 (78 FR 59981),
the NRC published for public comment
draft Revision 2 of SRP Section 13.6.2,
‘‘Physical Security—Review of Physical
Security System Designs—Standard
Design Certification and Operating
Reactor Licensing Applications.’’ This
section has been developed to assist the
NRC staff with the review of the
physical security system designs for
design certification and operating
reactor license applications and to
inform applicants and other affected
entities of guidance regarding an
acceptable method by which to evaluate
the affected portions of part 73 of Title
10 of the Code of Federal Regulations
(10 CFR).
The NRC staff received comment
submissions on the proposed revision.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:49 Jul 07, 2015
Jkt 235001
The NRC staff made several changes to
the proposed revision after
consideration of the comments. The
comments are documented alongside
the NRC staff’s responses are available
in ADAMS under Accession No.
ML14140A207. A redline strikeout
comparing the proposed draft and final
revision can be found in ADAMS under
Accession No. ML14140A208.
II. Backfitting and Issue Finality
Issuance of this final SRP section does
not constitute backfitting as defined in
10 CFR 50.109 (the Backfit Rule) and is
not otherwise inconsistent with the
issue finality provisions in 10 CFR part
52. The NRC staff’s position is based
upon the following considerations:
1. The SRP positions do not constitute
backfitting, inasmuch as the SRP is
internal guidance directed at the NRC
staff with respect to their regulatory
responsibilities.
The SRP provides guidance to the
staff on how to review an application for
NRC regulatory approval in the form of
licensing. Changes in internal staff
guidance are not matters for which
either nuclear power plant applicants or
licensees are protected under either the
Backfit Rule or the issue finality
provisions of 10 CFR part 52.
2. Backfitting and issue finality—with
certain exceptions discussed below—do
not protect current or future applicants.
Applicants and potential applicants
are not, with certain exceptions,
protected by either the Backfit Rule or
any issue finality provisions under 10
CFR part 52. This is because neither the
Backfit Rule nor the issue finality
provisions were intended to apply to
every NRC action which substantially
changes the expectations of current and
future applicants.
The exceptions to the general
principle are applicable whenever an
applicant references a 10 CFR part 52
license (e.g., an early site permit) and/
or NRC regulatory approval (e.g., a
design certification rule) with specified
issue finality provisions. The staff does
not currently intend to impose the
positions represented in this SRP
section in a manner that is inconsistent
with any issue finality provisions of 10
CFR part 52. If in the future the NRC
staff does indeed intend to impose
positions inconsistent with these issue
finality provisions, the NRC staff must
address the regulatory criteria for
avoiding issue finality.
3. The NRC staff has no intention to
impose the SRP positions on existing
nuclear power plant licenses or
regulatory approvals either now or in
the future (absent a voluntary request
for change from the licensee, holder of
PO 00000
Frm 00114
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
39163
a regulatory approval, or a design
certification applicant).
The staff does not intend to impose or
apply the positions described in the SRP
section to existing (already issued)
licenses (e.g., operating licenses and
combined licenses) and regulatory
approvals—in this case, design
certifications. Hence, the issuance of
this SRP guidance even if considered
guidance which is within the purview
of the issue finality provisions in 10
CFR part 52—need not be evaluated as
if it were a backfit or as being
inconsistent with issue finality
provisions. If, in the future, the staff
seeks to impose a position in the SRP on
holders of already issued licenses in a
manner which does not provide issue
finality as described in the applicable
issue finality provision, then the staff
must make the showing as set forth in
the Backfit Rule, or address the criteria
for avoiding issue finality as described
applicable issue finality provision, as
applicable.
III. Congressional Review Act
This action is a rule as defined in the
Congressional Review Act (5 U.S.C.
801–808). However, the Office of
Management and Budget has not found
it to be a major rule as defined in the
Congressional Review Act.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 29th day
of June, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
On September 30, 2013 (78 FR 59981), the NRC published for public
comment draft Revision 2 of SRP Section 13.6.2, ``Physical Security--
Review of Physical Security System Designs--Standard Design
Certification and Operating Reactor Licensing Applications.'' This
section has been developed to assist the NRC staff with the review of
the physical security system designs for design certification and
operating reactor license applications and to inform applicants and
other affected entities of guidance regarding an acceptable method by
which to evaluate the affected portions of part 73 of Title 10 of the
Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR).
The NRC staff received comment submissions on the proposed
revision. The NRC staff made several changes to the proposed revision
after consideration of the comments. The comments are documented

ML14140A208.
II. Backfitting and Issue Finality
Issuance of this final SRP section does not constitute backfitting
as defined in 10 CFR 50.109 (the Backfit Rule) and is not otherwise
inconsistent with the issue finality provisions in 10 CFR part 52. The
NRC staff's position is based upon the following considerations:
1. The SRP positions do not constitute backfitting, inasmuch as the
SRP is internal guidance directed at the NRC staff with respect to
their regulatory responsibilities.
The SRP provides guidance to the staff on how to review an
application for NRC regulatory approval in the form of licensing.
Changes in internal staff guidance are not matters for which either
nuclear power plant applicants or licensees are protected under either
the Backfit Rule or the issue finality provisions of 10 CFR part 52.
2. Backfitting and issue finality--with certain exceptions
discussed below--do not protect current or future applicants.
Applicants and potential applicants are not, with certain
exceptions, protected by either the Backfit Rule or any issue finality
provisions under 10 CFR part 52. This is because neither the Backfit
Rule nor the issue finality provisions were intended to apply to every
NRC action which substantially changes the expectations of current and
future applicants.
The exceptions to the general principle are applicable whenever an
applicant references a 10 CFR part 52 license (e.g., an early site
permit) and/or NRC regulatory approval (e.g., a design certification
rule) with specified issue finality provisions. The staff does not
currently intend to impose the positions represented in this SRP
section in a manner that is inconsistent with any issue finality
provisions of 10 CFR part 52. If in the future the NRC staff does
indeed intend to impose positions inconsistent with these issue
finality provisions, the NRC staff must address the regulatory criteria
for avoiding issue finality.
3. The NRC staff has no intention to impose the SRP positions on
existing nuclear power plant licenses or regulatory approvals either
now or in the future (absent a voluntary request for change from the
licensee, holder of a regulatory approval, or a design certification
applicant).
The staff does not intend to impose or apply the positions
described in the SRP section to existing (already issued) licenses
(e.g., operating licenses and combined licenses) and regulatory
approvals--in this case, design certifications. Hence, the issuance of
this SRP guidance even if considered guidance which is within the
purview of the issue finality provisions in 10 CFR part 52--need not be
evaluated as if it were a backfit or as being inconsistent with issue
finality provisions. If, in the future, the staff seeks to impose a
position in the SRP on holders of already issued licenses in a manner
which does not provide issue finality as described in the applicable
issue finality provision, then the staff must make the showing as set
forth in the Backfit Rule, or address the criteria for avoiding issue
finality as described applicable issue finality provision, as
applicable.
III. Congressional Review Act
This action is a rule as defined in the Congressional Review Act (5
U.S.C. 801-808). However, the Office of Management and Budget has not
found it to be a major rule as defined in the Congressional Review Act.
