Nuclear Regulatory Commission December 9, 2011 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The NRC is issuing its final Revision 2 to NUREG-0800, ``Standard Review Plan for the Review of Safety Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants: LWR Edition,'' Section 1.0, Revision 2 on ``Introduction and Interfaces'' (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML112730393). The NRC staff issues revisions to SRP sections to facilitate timely implementation of the current staff guidance and to facilitate reviews to amendments to licenses for operating reactors or for activities associated with review of applications for early site permits and combined licenses for the Office of New Reactors. The NRC will incorporate similar post-COL commitment guidance developed specifically for COL applicants and included in ISG-015 in the next revision of RG 1.206, ``Combined License Applications for Nuclear Power Plants (LWR Edition),'' and related guidance documents. Disposition: On April 14, 2011, the NRC staff issued the proposed Revision 2 on SRP Section 1.0 on ``Introduction and Interfaces,'' ADAMS Accession No. ML110110573. There were no comments received on the proposed revision. Therefore, the guidance is issued as final without changes to the proposed notification. Congressional Act Review: In accordance with the Congressional Review Act, the NRC has determined that this action is not a major rule and has verified this determination with the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs of the Office of Management and Budget.
