(Mon) OPENED L2014-CRS- RIS RIS 2005-29 Rev 1 Anticipated Transients That Could Develop into More Serious Events 50.0 04/6/2014 0001 This RIS update is intended to clarify the guidance contained in previously issued RIS 2005-29. RIS 2005-29 was initially issued to discuss concerns with demonstrating that certain events would not escalate into more serious events.

L2014-CRS- RIS Pressure Boundary Leakage 48.0 06/30/2014 0002 This RIS was initially intended to discuss technical specification definitions related to reactor coolant system pressure boundary leakage but was placed on hold pending industry development of Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF) Traveler 554, Revise Reactor Coolant Leakage Requirements. The NRC was recently informed that industry no longer plans to submit TSTF Traveler 554 for review, therefore NRC is again evaluating whether to develop this RIS.

L2015-CRS- RIS Safety-Related SSCs in Service Beyond Service Life 40.0 02/03/2015 0001 This RIS is intended to reiterate existing requirements related to dispositioning information pertaining to the capability of safety-related structures, systems, and components (SSC) to perform their safety functions. Also addressed are instances where a licensee becomes aware of information pertaining to the time period that a safety-related SSC is installed that may impact its ability to perform its safety function(s).

L2016-CRS- RIS Identifying and Reporting Human Factor Incidents Under 10 CFR 50.73 29.0 01/13/2016 0001 This RIS is intended to remind licensees of the requirements regarding reporting human performance incidents under 10 CFR 50.73, Licensee event report system, and how to properly report those matters. This RIS specifically focuses on 10 CFR 50.73 (b)(2)(ii)(J), which requires a narrative description for each human performance related root cause discussing the causes and circumstances.

L2016-CRS- RIS Functionality of Non-Tech Spec Support Systems as They Relate to Operability of Tech Spec 20.0 10/11/2016 0004 Systems This RIS is intended to clarify the applicability of the single failure criterion as it relates to technical specification systems, structures and components with support systems not covered in technical specifications L2017-CRS- RIS Clarification of Visual Examination Requirements for Reactor Upper Heads to Detect Signs of 14.0 04/05/2017 0040 Leakage This RIS is intended to clarify the requirements for bare metal visual examination.

L2017-CRS- IN Boiling-Water Reactor Dryout Indications Occurring During Normal Operation 11.0 07/28/2017 0046 This IN is intended to inform addressees of recent operating experience related to numerous dryout indications which occurred over multiple cycles at the Leibstadt Nuclear Power Plant (NPP), a BWR/6 in Switzerland.

L2017-CRS- RIS Electronic Signature Use for Medical Licensee Internal Documents Required by NRC Regulation 10.0 08/24/2017 0048 This RIS is intended to supply information to assist medical use licensees in complying with the current NRC requirements related to the use of electronic signatures in internal licensee electronic documents and to clarify what constitutes a signature on electronic documents that medical use licensees are required to sign and
