NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

10 CFR Part 50


Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities; 
Public Workshop Meeting Cancellation

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

ACTION: Cancellation of public workshop meeting.

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

SUMMARY: On December 3, 1998, 63 FR 66772 stated: ``The Commission has 
requested the staff to develop and assess options on incorporating risk 
insights in the Code of Federal Regulations 10 CFR 50.59. This 
regulation permits licensees to implement certain changes that do not 
require prior NRC approval. On or about December 19, 1998, the staff 
will place in the Public Document Room (PDR) a draft report that 
identifies options for incorporating risk insights into the existing 10 
CFR 50.59 process. At the same time that the document is placed in the 
PDR, the staff will issue a notice to hold a public workshop on January 
19, 1999, at the NRC auditorium, in Rockville, Maryland. That notice 
will also solicit comments on this program.''
    This notice makes the following three changes to that previous 
notice: (1) The draft report that identifies options for incorporating 
risk insights into the existing 10 CFR 50.59 process will be placed in 
the PDR during the week of December 21, 1998, (2) the public workshop 
on January 19, 1999, is canceled, and (3) a future notice will be 
issued regarding the incorporation of risk insights into application of 
the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50. That future notice will incorporate 
the previous separately planned public comments and public meetings 
regarding the 10 CFR 50.59 process.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jack Guttmann, 301-415-7732.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 22nd day of December, 1998.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Acting Branch Chief, Probabilistic Risk Analysis Branch, Division of
