Standard Format and Content of License Termination Plans for Nuclear Power Reactors
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing Revision 2 to Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.179, ``Standard Format and Content of License Termination Plans for Nuclear Power Reactors.'' This RG (Revision 2) provides general procedures acceptable to the NRC staff for the preparation of license termination plans (LTPs) for nuclear power reactors. This RG also describes the acceptable format and content of LTPs for nuclear power reactor licensees to terminate their licenses and release their sites.

Pressurized Water Reactor Control Rod Ejection and Boiling Water Reactor Control Rod Drop Accidents
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is reissuing for public comment draft regulatory guide (DG), DG-1327, ``Pressurized Water Reactor Control Rod Ejection and Boiling Water Reactor Control Rod Drop Accidents.'' This DG proposes new guidance for analyzing accidents such as a control rod ejection for pressurized water reactors and a control rod drop for boiling-water reactors. It defines fuel cladding failure thresholds for ductile failure, brittle failure, and pellet-clad mechanical interaction and provides radionuclide release fractions for use in assessing radiological consequences. It also describes analytical limits and guidance for demonstrating compliance with regulations governing reactivity limits.
