DPR-70 and DPR-75 NRC Docket Nos. 50-272, 50-311 and 72-0048 Hope Creek Generating Station Renewed Facility Operating License No. NPF-57 NRC Docket No. 50-354 and 72-0048
Subject:
Request for Exemption from Enhanced Weapons, Firearms Background Checks, and Security Event Notifications Implementation On March 14, 2023, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) noticed in the Federal Register, Final Rule, Enhanced Weapons, Firearms Background Checks, and Security Event Notifications.
This final rule became effective April 13, 2023, with a compliance date of January 8, 2024.
In accordance with 10 CFR 73.5, PSEG Nuclear LLC is requesting an exemption from the specific requirements in 10 CFR Part 73, Subpart T, "Security Notifications, Reports, and Recordkeeping," 10 CFR 73.1200(a) through 10 CFR 73.1200(t), "Notification of Physical Security Events," 10 CFR 73.1205(a)(1) through 10 CFR 73.1205(e), "Written Follow-up Reports of Physical Security Events," 10 CFR 73.1210(a)(1) through10 CFR 73.1210(h), "Recordkeeping of Physical Security Events," and 10 CFR 73.1215(a) through 10 CFR 73.1215(f), "Suspicious Activity Reports," until the later of December 31, 2024, or 180 days after publication of the final Regulatory Guides.
PSEG Nuclear LLC is requesting an exemption from using the definitions for the terms "Contraband," and "Time of Discovery" as recently revised in 10 CFR 73.2, "Definitions," until the later of December 31, 2024, or 180 days after publication of the final Regulatory Guides. The exemption would not apply to the definitions of those terms that were in effect prior to the issuance of the 2023 revisions.
Based on NRC's projected timeline for completion of revision to the applica ble Regulatory Guides associated with this final rule, and the time necessary for PSEG Nuclear LLC to go through the change management processes adequately to include the number of training weeks that will be required, PSEG Nuclear LLC is requesting a new compliance date of December 31, 2024, or 180 days after publication of final Regulatory Guides, whichever is later.
LR-N23-0073 Page 2 The attachment to this letter provides the justification and rationale for the exemption request.
The requested exemption from the specific requirements in 10 CFR Part 73, is permissible under 10 CFR 73.5 because it is authorized by law, will not present an undue risk to the public health and safety, and is consistent with the common defense and security.
PSEG Nuclear LLC requests approval of this exemption by January 8, 2024 so actions can be taken to ensure consistent and reliable reporting procedures. There are no regulatory commitments contained in this submittal.
