Nuclear Regulatory Commission December 30, 2008 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

This document corrects a notice appearing in the Federal Register on December 2, 2008 (73 FR 73351), that lists all notices of amendments issued, or proposed to be issued from November 6, 2008, to November 19, 2008. This action is necessary to correct an erroneous amendment number.

Notice is hereby given that the staff of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has approved TSTF-511, Revision 0, ``Eliminate Working Hour Restrictions from TS 5.2.2 to Support Compliance with 10 CFR Part 26,'' and has prepared a model license amendment request (LAR), model safety evaluation (SE), and model proposed no significant hazards consideration (NSHC) determination related to deletion of paragraph d of Technical Specification (TS) 5.2.2 in Standard Technical Specifications (STS). The purpose of these models is to permit the NRC to efficiently process license amendment applications that propose to adopt TSTF-511, Revision 0. TSTF-511, Revision 0 revises the Administrative Controls section of STS to support compliance with a recent revision to 10 CFR Part 26, ``Fitness For Duty Programs.'' Licensees of nuclear power reactors to which the model applies may request amendments using the model application. The NRC issued a Federal Register notice (73 FR 16966, March 31, 2008) of the issuance of a final rule that amended 10 CFR Part 26. The revised regulations in 10 CFR Part 26, Subpart I supersede working hour restrictions contained in TS. The NRC staff hereby announces that the model SE and NSHC determination may be referenced in plant-specific applications to adopt the changes. The NRC staff can most efficiently consider applications based upon the model application if the application is submitted within a year of this Federal Register notice.
