Nuclear Regulatory Commission August 8, 2014 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is seeking public comment on a draft generic letter to request information from licensees to address the treatment of natural phenomena hazards in fuel cycle facilities. The NRC has determined that facility-specific information is necessary to confirm that fuel cycle facilities are in compliance with appropriate regulatory requirements. The NRC will use information submitted by licensees in response to the generic letter if additional regulatory action is warranted.

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is correcting a notice that was published in the Federal Register (FR) on July 11, 2014, announcing the release of draft regulatory guide (DG), DG-1141, ``Setpoints for Safety-Related Instrumentation,'' for a 60 day public comment period. This action is being taken to correct the Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession number for DG- 1141. The document at the corrected ADAMS number includes editorial changes that were not included in the previously referenced version of DG-1141, but there are no technical changes. Due to this error, the NRC is extending the comment period from September 9, 2014, to October 10, 2014.
