SUBJECT:

MINUTES OF CRGR MEETING NUMBER 246 The Committee to Review Generic Requirements (CRGR) met on Tuesday, July 27, 1993 from 8:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.

A list of attendees at the meeting is attached (Enclosure 1).

The following items were discussed at the meeting:

1.

The CRGR reviewed proposed amendments to 10 CFR 50.2 and 50.54 to implement recent recommendations by the Regulatory Review Group, and establish a process that would facilitate modification of commitments by licensees without prior approval by NRC, for types of commitments not covered by the 10 CFR 50.59 process. The Committee did not recommend in favor of issuing the proposed amendments at this time, but recommended further consideration and continued development of the innovative proposals involved. This matter is discussed in Enclosure 2.

2.

The CRGR reviewed the proposed Generic Letter " Removal Of Accelerated Testing and Special Reporting Requirements for Emergency Diesel Generators from Plant Technical Specifications". The Committee recommended in favor of issuing the proposed supplement, subject to minor clarifying changes. This matter is discussed in Enclosure 3.

The Committee discussed preliminary thoughts on revising the CRGR Charter to better reflect the Commission's understanding of the

" substantial increase" standard of the backfit rule (10 CFR 50.109).

staff was provided guidance on preparing a draft Charter revision for review at the next regular meeting.
