Document Number: 2016-28507
Type: Notice
Date: 2016-11-28
Agency: Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Agencies and Commissions
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is considering an application for the renewal of Facility Operating License No. R-129, which authorizes the University of Texas at Austin (the licensee) to operate the Nuclear Engineering Teaching Laboratory (NETL) Training, Research, Isotope Production, General Atomics (TRIGA) Research Reactor at a maximum steady-state thermal power of 1.1 megawatts (MW). The NETL research reactor is a TRIGA-fueled research reactor located at the J.J. Pickle Research Campus, in Austin, Texas. If approved, the renewed license would authorize the licensee to operate the NETL TRIGA Research Reactor up to a steady-state thermal power of 1.1 MW for an additional 20 years from the date of issuance of the renewed license. Because the license renewal application contains sensitive unclassified non- safeguards information (SUNSI), an order imposes procedures to obtain access to SUNSI for contention preparation.

Statistical Terminology and Notation for Special Nuclear Materials Control and Accountability
Document Number: 2016-26911
Type: Notice
Date: 2016-11-08
Agency: Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Agencies and Commissions
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is withdrawing Regulatory Guide (RG) 5.3, ``Statistical Terminology and Notation for Special Nuclear Materials Control and Accountability,'' that was issued in 1973. This document is being withdrawn in part because regulatory guidance is not needed for common statistical terminology and notation information that is commonly used in the field of statistics. Further, RG 5.3 provided guidance on the term ``limits of error'' as defined in the NRC's regulations. This term is no longer a defined regulatory term and is no longer used by the NRC except in certain transaction reports. Also, RG 5.3 endorsed a 1972 American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standard that was later withdrawn. Therefore, the NRC finds that RG 5.3 is obsolete.
