. III. SECY-80-465 - Advance Notification of Proposed Rulemaking Concerning Design and Other Changes After CP lssuance The Commission by a vote of 4-0 approved for publication in the Federal Register an advanced notice of proposed rulemaking, as modified below.
The proposed rule would amend NRC regulations to define more clearly the limitations on a construction permit holder to make changes in a facility during construction.
The Commission requested that staff prepare a revised Federal Register Notice to include the following modifications:
- to reflect the Commission's preference for implementation of Alternative 3 with a shift to Alternative 5 on June 1,1983;
- to seek comment on the extent to which the rule should be applied to existing construction permit holders;
- to restate Alternative 5 to read:
"5.
Restructure the licensing process to require that sufficient plant design details and equipment performance specifications be provided in the PSAR so that the safety analysis can be essentially a final one.
Upon review and approval, the important safety-related elements of the design would be made conditions cf the CP and could not be changed without prior Commissioner approval.
Staff review at the OL stage would then be primarily a matter of confinming that the "as built" plant conformed to the CP-stage safety analysis."
- to allow for a 60 day comment period.
(NRR)
The Commission requested staff to submit the proposed rule, a Value-Impact Statement and Resource Analysis to the Commission within 60 days after the end of the comment period unless higher priority Commission tasks prevent it.
