Nuclear Regulatory Commission November 10, 2009 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The NRC is requesting public comment on the enclosed proposed model application, model no significant hazards consideration determination, and model safety evaluation for plant-specific adoption of Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF) Traveler-493, Revision 4, ``Clarify Application of Setpoint Methodology for LSSS Functions.'' The TSTF Traveler-493, Revision 4, is available in the Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) under Accession Number ML092150990. The proposed changes revise Standard Technical Specifications (STS) with respect to limiting safety system settings (LSSSs) assessed during periodic testing and calibration of instrumentation that may have an adverse effect on equipment operability. This model safety evaluation will facilitate expedited approval of plant-specific adoption of TSTF Traveler-493, Revision 4.
