Nuclear Regulatory Commission June 13, 2016 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is considering issuance of an amendment to Facility Operating License No. NPF-49, issued to Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc., et al. (the licensee), for operation of the Millstone Power Station, Unit No. 3 (MPS3). The proposed amendment would revise the Technical Specifications (TSs) to enable the use of Dominion nuclear safety and reload core design methods for MPS3, address the issues identified in three Westinghouse communication documents, and update approved reference methodologies in the TSs. The amendment would also relocate certain equations, supporting descriptions, and surveillance requirements from the TSs to licensee-controlled documents.
