Nuclear Regulatory Commission June 23, 2014 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is soliciting public comment on its generic technical specification travelers (GTSTs) for the development of standard technical specifications (STS) for the AP1000 certified reactor design based on the AP1000 generic technical specifications (GTS). Each GTST documents the safety basis for proposed improvements to one or more GTS sections that will result in corresponding sections in the AP1000 STS, which will be the subject of a NUREG (similar to NUREG-1431, STS for Westinghouse Plants). The purpose of the GTSTs is to provide an orderly method of soliciting and processing public comments on proposed enhancements and updates to the GTS and the associated GTS Bases.
