To control this accumulation, agency records managers prepare schedules proposing retention periods for records and submit these schedules for NARA’s approval. Once approved by NARA, records schedules provide mandatory instructions on what happens to records when no longer needed for current Government business. The records schedules authorize agencies to preserve records of continuing value in the National Archives or to destroy, after a specified period, records lacking continuing administrative, legal, research, or other value. Some schedules are comprehensive and cover all the records of an agency or one of its major subdivisions.

Agencies may not destroy Federal records without the approval of the Archivist of the United States.

Background The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) is the holder of Renewed Facility Operating License Nos. DPR–77 and DPR–79, which authorize operation of Sequoyah Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2 (Sequoyah). The licenses provide, among other things, that the facilities are subject to all rules, regulations, and orders of the NRC now, or hereafter, in effect. The Sequoyah units are pressurized-water reactors located in Hamilton County, Tennessee, approximately 9.5 miles northeast of Chattanooga. TVA plans to use fuel rods with Optimized ZIRLOTM cladding. Optimized ZIRLO cladding was developed to provide enhanced corrosion resistance in more adverse inreactor primary chemistry environments and at higher fuel duties with higher burnups. II. Request/Action By letter dated September 23, 2020, TVA requested an exemption from title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) section 50.46, ‘‘Acceptance criteria for emergency core cooling systems [ECCS] for light-water nuclear power reactors,’’ and 10 CFR part 50, appendix K, ‘‘ECCS Evaluation Models,’’ to allow the use of Optimized ZIRLO fuel rod cladding for future core reload applications. The regulations in 10 CFR 50.46 contain acceptance criteria for the ECCS for reactors fueled with zircaloy or ZIRLO® fuel rod cladding material. In addition, paragraph I.A.5 of 10 CFR part 50, E:\FR\FM\02NON1.SGM 02NON1

Background

    Each year, Federal agencies create billions of records. To control 
this accumulation, agency records managers prepare schedules proposing 
retention periods for records and submit these schedules for NARA's 
approval. Once approved by NARA, records schedules provide mandatory 
instructions on what happens to records when no longer needed for 
current Government business. The records schedules authorize agencies 
to preserve records of continuing value in the National Archives or to 
destroy, after a specified period, records lacking continuing 
administrative, legal, research, or other value. Some schedules are 
comprehensive and cover all the records of an agency or one of its 
major subdivisions. Most schedules, however, cover records of only one 
office or program or a few series of records. Many of these update 
previously approved schedules, and some include records proposed as 
permanent.
    Agencies may not destroy Federal records without the approval of 
the Archivist of the United States. The Archivist grants this approval 
only after thorough consideration of the records' administrative use by 
the agency of origin, the rights of the Government and of private 
people directly affected by the Government's activities, and whether or 
not the records have historical or other value. Public review and 
comment on these records schedules is part of the Archivist's 
consideration process.
