Perry Buckberg markleyse@gmail.com James Kim; Natreon Jordan RE: Re: 2.206 Petition Regarding the Storage of Spent Fuel Assemblies in Spent Fuel Pools at U.S. Nuclear Plants Friday, March 31, 2023 8:39:00 AM Mr. Leyse, Sorry for the delay in responding while Nate Jordan is out of the office. Your March 26, 2023, attachment included questions about the NRC Staff immediate action assessment of your recent 10 CFR 2.206 petition. Please consider the following response.
The NRCStaff uses its engineering judgment in determining whether an issue presented in the context of a 10 CFR 2.206 petition demonstrates a safety concern that warrants immediate action.In evaluating the contents of your petition, the NRC Staff determined that no immediate action is warranted because your petition does not describe an emergent condition of which the NRC Staff is unaware, and it does not identify any licensee that is not currently in compliance with NRC requirements.You postulate that widespread, long term power outages could occur at any moment, but such speculation does not justify immediate regulatory action.Accordingly, the PRB will continue a thorough evaluation of your February 28 petition to determine whether non-immediate action is warranted. That evaluation will now include your March 26 attachment.
