SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction

    The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) continues to prepare and 
issue Interim Staff Guidance (ISG) documents for fuel cycle facilities. 
These ISG documents provide clarifying guidance to the NRC staff when 
reviewing licensee integrated safety analyses, license applications or 
amendment requests or other related licensing activities for fuel cycle 
facilities under 10 CFR Part 70. Currently, the NRC has revised one of 
these documents, Draft ISG-FCSS-10, Rev. 2, based on comments received 
on Revision 1. The NRC plans to discuss the resolution of these 
comments at a public meeting to be held April 28, 2006, at the NRC 
Headquarters Auditorium in Rockville, Maryland.

II. Summary

    The purpose of this notice is to provide the public with a meeting 
notice and proposed agenda for a public meeting scheduled for April 28, 
2006, at the NRC Headquarters Auditorium in which the NRC will discuss 
revision of the draft guidance document, FCSS-ISG-10, Revision 2, which 
provides guidance to NRC staff to determine whether the minimum margin 
of subcriticality is sufficient to provide an adequate assurance of 
subcriticality for safety to demonstrate compliance with the 
performance requirements of 10 CFR 70.61(d), and its resolution of 
comments received on Revision 1. Revision 2 of the draft ISG and the 
ADAMS accession number for an associated table of comment resolution 
were previously noticed in the Federal Register on March 20, 2006. The 
agenda for the April 28, 2006, meeting is provided below.
