Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 186 / Friday, September 25, 2015 / Notices FSARs, FSAR updates, and in emergency preparedness and fire protection documents, which had previously been presumptively withheld by the NRC. • To recommend a format for submission of FSAR updates for nuclear power reactors. Research and test reactors and other non-power production and utilization facilities are not required to update their facility FSARs, unless applying for renewal of the facility license. Licensees have two submission format options regarding FSAR updates: (1) Electronically on a total FSAR replacement basis, as described in 10 CFR 50.4(b)(6), or (2) on a paper replacement page basis, as described in 10 CFR 50.71(e). Electronic submission of updates on a total FSAR replacement basis would save billable staff hours since time would not be taken to manually reconstruct sections of the FSAR for various staff reviews. Therefore, the NRC recommends that licensees voluntarily submit updates electronically (via CD or Electronic Information Exchange) on a total FSAR replacement basis. Submission of FSAR updates in this manner will also assist the NRC in its emergency response function by ensuring that recentlyupdated, total FSARs are available to NRC emergency response teams. Proposed Action The NRC is requesting public comments on draft RIS 2015–XX. The NRC staff will make a final determination regarding issuance of the RIS after it considers any public comments received in response to this request. Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 18th day of September 2015. For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
