SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 26,
‘‘Fitness for Duty Programs,’’ Section
26.205, ‘‘Work hours.’’
The exemptions from 10 CFR
26.205(d)(1) through (7) ensure that the
control of work hours and management
of worker fatigue do not unduly limit
licensee flexibility in using personnel
resources to most effectively manage the
impacts of the COVID–19 PHE on
maintaining the safe operation of these
facilities. Specifically, the licensees
stated that their staffing levels are
affected or are expected to be affected by
the COVID–19 PHE, and they can no
longer meet or likely will not meet the
work hour controls of 10 CFR
26.205(d)(1) through (d)(7). The
licensees have committed to effecting
site-specific administrative controls for
COVID–19 PHE fatigue-management for
personnel specified in 10 CFR 26.4(a).
The NRC is periodically providing
this compiled listing of related
exemptions using a single Federal
Register notice for COVID–19 related
exemptions, instead of issuing
individual Federal Register notices. The
compiled listing provides transparency
regarding the number of exemptions the
NRC is issuing related to a given
regulatory requirement. Additionally,
the NRC publishes a list of approved
licensing actions related to the COVID–
19 PHE on its public website at https://
www.nrc.gov/about-nrc/covid-19/
reactors/licensing-actions.html.
