ACTION: Regulatory guide; issuance.
AGENCY:
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is issuing Revision 2
to Regulatory Guide (RG) 3.54, ‘‘Spent
Fuel Heat Generation in an Independent
Spent Fuel Storage Installation.’’
Revision 2 provides methods acceptable
to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
(NRC) staff for calculating spent nuclear
fuel heat generation rates for use for an
Independent Spent Fuel Storage
Installation (ISFSI). The revision
presents an up-to-date methodology for
determining heat generation rates and
provides greater flexibility (less
restrictions). It also allows loading of
higher burnup fuel by using more
accurate methods for decay heat
calculations.
DATES: Revision 2 to RG 3.54 is available
on December 26, 2018.
