NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

Proposed Generic Communication Testing of Safety-Related Logic 
Circuits; Extension of Comment Period

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

ACTION: Proposed generic communication: Extension of comment period.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On May 22, 1995, (60 FR 27141), the NRC published for public 
comment a proposed generic letter which discusses problems with the 
testing of safety-related logic circuits and requests addressees to 
review surveillance procedures to determine whether any of the 
procedures fail to test all required portions of the logic circuitry 
and, if any problems are found, to correct the problems. The comment 
period for this proposed generic letter was to have expired on July 21, 
1995. In a letter dated July 6, 1995, the Nuclear Energy Institute 
requested a 30-day extension of the comment period to allow the 
industry to prepare more comprehensive and detailed comments with 
respect to the proposed generic letter provisions and impact. In 
response to this request, the NRC has decided to extend the comment 
period 30 days.

DATES: The comment period has been extended and now expires August 21, 
1995. Comments received after this date will be considered if it is 
practical to do so but assurance of consideration cannot be given 
except for comments received on or before this date.

ADDRESSES: Submit written comments to Chief, Rules Review and 
Directives Branch. U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 
20555. Written comments may also be delivered to 11545 Rockville Pike, 
Rockville, Maryland, from 7:30 a.m. to 4:15 p.m., Federal workdays. 
Copies of written comments received may be examined at the NRC Public 
Document Room, 2120 L Street, NW. (Lower Level), Washington, DC.
