Nuclear Regulatory Commission May 31, 2011 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The NRC is soliciting public comment on NUREG-0800, ``Standard Review Plan for the Review of Safety Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants,'' on a proposed Revision 4 to Standard Review Plan (SRP), Section 8.1 on ``Electric PowerIntroduction,'' (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML111180542). The previous version of this SRP section was published in March, 2007 as proposed Revision 3 (ADAMS Accession No. ML070550067). The current revision issues a new Branch Technical Position (BTP) 8-8 on ``Onsite (Emergency Diesel Generators) and Offsite Power Sources Allowed Outage Time Extensions.'' (ADAMS Accession No. ML111180521). The new BTP will be added to Chapter 8 of the SRP and Table 8-1 is updated to include the BTP 8-8. The NRC staff issues notices to facilitate timely implementation of the current staff guidance and to facilitate activities associated with the review of amendment applications and review of design certification and combined license applications for NRO. The NRC staff intends to incorporate the final approved guidance into the next revision of NUREG-0800, SRP Section 8.1, Revision 4 and Regulatory Guide 1.206, ``Combined License Applications for Nuclear Power Plants (LWR Edition),'' June 2007.
