NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
Regulatory Guide; Issuance, Availability
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has issued a revision of a
guide in its Regulatory Guide Series. This series has been developed to
describe and make available to the public such information as methods
acceptable to the NRC staff for implementing specific parts of the
NRC's regulations, techniques used by the staff in its review of
applications for permits and licenses, and data needed by the NRC staff
in its review of applications for permits and licenses.
Revision 1 of Regulatory Guide 1.53, ``Application of the Single-
Failure Criterion to Safety Systems,'' provides guidance on methods
acceptable to the NRC staff for satisfying the NRC's regulations with
respect to the application of the single-failure criterion to the
electrical power, instrumentation, and control portions of nuclear
power plant safety systems.
