Introduction The U.S. 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, amendment requests, or other related licensing activities for fuel cycle facilities under Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) part 70. Draft FCSS-ISG-11, Revision 0, ``10 CFR part 70, Appendix A--Reportable Safety Events,'' Revision 0, is now being issued for public comments. II. Summary The purpose of this notice is to notify the public of the availability for review and comments of Draft FCSS-ISG-11, Revision 0, ``10 CFR part 70, Appendix A--Reportable Safety Events,'' which provides guidance addressing the event reporting criteria in Appendix A to 10 CFR part 70. Upon receiving public comments, the NRC staff will evaluate the comments and make a determination whether or not to incorporate the comments, as appropriate. The NRC staff will incorporate the guidance from the approved ISG into a future regulatory guide on event reporting requirements for fuel cycle facility licensees. DATES: Comments may be submitted by August 10, 2009. Comments received after this date will be considered, if it is practical to do so, but the NRC is able to ensure consideration only for comments received on or before this date. ADDRESSES: You may submit comments by any one of the following methods. Please include Docket ID NRC-2009-0303 in the subject line of your comments. Comments submitted in writing or in electronic form will be posted on the NRC Web site and on the Federal rulemaking Web site Regulations.gov. Because your comments will not be edited to remove any identifying or contact information, the NRC cautions you against including any information in your submission that you do not want to be publicly disclosed. We request that any party soliciting or aggregating comments received from other persons for submission to the NRC inform those persons that the NRC will not edit their comments to remove any identifying or contact information, and therefore they should not include any information in their comments that they do not want publicly disclosed. Federal Rulemaking Web site: Go to http://www.regulations.gov and search for documents filed under Docket ID NRC-2009-0303.
