Geary, is this what you had in mind?
l Applicants for construction permits under this part or a design certification or combined license under Part 52 of this J chapter who apply on or after January 10,1997, or holders of operatino licenses usina an attemative source term under 6 50.67. shall meet the requirements of this enterion, except that with regard to control room access and occupancy, adequate radiation protection shall be provided to ensure that radiation exposures shall not exceed 0.05 Sv (5 rem) total effective dose equivalent (TEDE) as defined in 6 50.2 of this chapter for the duration of the accident.
====
With regard to no significant hazard-l was re<,alibrated after we talked last nigh'. The decision regarding a no significant hazard is made by the PM when the amendment is received by the agency. S/he makes a preliminary determination based on the licensee's NSH analysis and her/his own understanding of the issues. S/he may or may not ask a technical branch for assistance. Based on this, a decision is made regaro:ng a hearing and the FR notice is published. The amendment is then distributed to the technical branch (es) for review. We do not feel that there is any inherent predetermination associated with 50.67 that would call for a conclusion of significant hazard. As we I discussed last night, we believe that licensees will pursue a revised source term only to the extent that it enables
' them to implement some cost-beneficial plant modification. Thus, a licensee could propose an amendment that might warrant a public hearing, but such a determination would be based on the particular details of that amendment-not the source term in of itself.
