NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[NRC-2011-0119]


Office Of New Reactors; Proposed Revision 4 to Standard Review 
Plan; Section 8.1 on Electric Power--Introduction

AGENCY: U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).

ACTION: Solicitation of public comment.

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

SUMMARY: The NRC is soliciting public comment on NUREG-0800, ``Standard 
Review Plan for the Review of Safety Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power 
Plants,'' on a proposed Revision 4 to Standard Review Plan (SRP), 
Section 8.1 on ``Electric Power--Introduction,'' (Agencywide Documents 
Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML111180542). The 
previous version of this SRP section was published in March, 2007 as 
proposed Revision 3 (ADAMS Accession No. ML070550067). The current 
revision issues a new Branch Technical Position (BTP) 8-8 on ``Onsite 
(Emergency Diesel Generators) and Offsite Power Sources Allowed Outage 
Time Extensions.'' (ADAMS Accession No. ML111180521). The new BTP will 
be added to Chapter 8 of the SRP and Table 8-1 is updated to include 
the BTP 8-8.
    The NRC staff issues notices to facilitate timely implementation of 
the current staff guidance and to facilitate activities associated with 
the review of amendment applications and review of design certification 
and combined license applications for NRO. The NRC staff intends to 
incorporate the final approved guidance into the next revision of 
NUREG-0800, SRP Section 8.1, Revision 4 and Regulatory Guide 1.206, 
``Combined License Applications for Nuclear Power Plants (LWR 
Edition),'' June 2007.

DATES: Comments must be filed no later than June 30, 2011. Comments 
received after this date will be considered, if it is practical to do 
so, but the Commission 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-2011-0119 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 at 
http://www.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.
    The NRC requests 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.
