NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION


Laboratory Testing of Nuclear-Grade Activated Charcoal (ERRATA); 
Issue

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

ACTION: Notice of issuance.

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

SUMMARY: The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has issued the errata 
for a typographical error that was found in Generic Letter (GL) 99-02. 
GL 99-02 addresses the laboratory testing of nuclear-grade activated 
charcoal that is used in the safety-related air-cleaning units of 
engineered safety feature ventilation systems of nuclear power plants 
to reduce the potential onsite and offsite consequences of a 
radiological accident by adsorbing iodine.
    The typographical error makes the sentence in which it appears 
technically incorrect. This sentence appears in two places, namely, in 
Requested Actions 2 and 3, on page 7 of the generic letter. The 
affected sentence reads ``If the system has a face velocity greater 
than 10 percent of 0.203 m/s (40 ft/min), then the revised TS 
[technical specification] should specify the face velocity.'' This 
sentence should read ``If the system has a face velocity greater than 
110 percent of 0.203 m/s (40 ft/min), then the revised TS should 
specify the face velocity.''

DATES: The errata was issued on August 23, 1999.

ADDRESSEES: Not applicable.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John P. Segala, at 301-415-1858.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The errata is available in the NRC Public 
Document Room under accession number 9908060152.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 17th day of August 1999.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Scott F. Newberry,
Deputy Director, Division of Reactor Program Management, Office of 
Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
