Download as PDF 6898 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 26 / Tuesday, February 9, 2016 / Notices mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES risk from accidents that could affect multiple modules in facilities with small modular integral pressurized water reactors (iPWRs), (6) additional review procedures for the staff’s review of the results of the PRA for non-power modes of operation, and (7) several editorial changes to ensure that there is no confusion between text in this SRP section and text in the ASME/ANS PRA Standard currently endorsed by the NRC and referenced in this SRP section. The ISG DC/COL–ISG–003 and ISG DI&C/ COL–ISG–003 have now been superseded by SRP 19.0, Revision 3 and should no longer be used. The ISG DC/ COL–ISG–020 contains guidance for COL holders which has not been superseded by SRP 19.0, Revision 3 and should still be used by COL holders. II. Backfitting and Issue Finality Issuance of this final SRP does not constitute backfitting as defined in 10 CFR 50.109 (the Backfit Rule) or otherwise be inconsistent with the issue finality provisions in 10 CFR part 52. The NRC’s position is based upon the following considerations: 1. The SRP positions, does not constitute backfitting, inasmuch as the SRP is internal guidance to NRC staff. The SRP provides internal guidance to the NRC 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. The NRC staff has no intention to impose the SRP positions on existing licensees either now or in the future. The NRC staff does not intend to impose or apply the positions described in the draft SRP to existing licenses and regulatory approvals. Hence, the issuance of a final SRP—even if considered guidance within the purview of the issue finality provisions in 10 CFR part 52—need not be evaluated as if it were a backfit or inconsistent with issue finality provisions. If, in the future, the NRC staff seeks to impose a position in the SRP on holders of already issued licenses in a manner that 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 in the applicable issue finality provision. 3. Backfitting and issue finality do not—with limited exceptions not VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:54 Feb 08, 2016 Jkt 238001 applicable here—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. Neither the Backfit Rule nor the issue finality provisions under 10 CFR part 52, with certain exclusions, were intended to apply to every NRC action that 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 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 NRC staff does not, at this time, intend to impose the positions represented in the draft SRP in a manner that is inconsistent with any issue finality provisions. If, in the future, the staff seeks to impose a position in the draft SRP in a manner that does not provide issue finality as described in the applicable issue finality provision, then the staff must address the criteria for avoiding issue finality as described in the applicable issue finality provision. III. Congressional Review Act In accordance with the Congressional Review Act, the NRC has determined that this action is not a major rule and has verified this determination with the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs of the Office of Management and Budget. Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 21st day of January, 2016. For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
