Abstract: The NRC is amending its regulations in Part 50 to permit existing light water reactor licensees to voluntarily adopt National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard 805 Performance-Based Standard for Fire Protection for Light Water Reactor Electric Generating Plants, 2001 Edition (NFPA 805) as an alternative set of fire protection requirements in lieu of existing deterministic fire protection requirements.
The final rule adds Section 50.48(c) to 10 CFR Part 50 to incorporate NFPA 805 into the NRCs regulations by reference with certain exceptions, modifications and supplementation, and requires a license amendment for adoption of the NFPA 805 Standard or for the use of alternatives to NFPA 805. The final rule amends 50.48(f) to state that a fire protection program that complies with NFPA 805 will be considered to meet the requirements of 50.48(f) for a fire protection program.
