Consistent with Regulatory Guide 1.206, Section C.IV.1, and 10 CFR 52.79, a Combined License (COL) Application must contain a Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) that includes information "at a level sufficient to enable the Commission to reach a final conclusion on all safety matters that must be resolved . . . before issuance of a COL."  The following is a request for additional information (RAI) on the Nuclear Energy Institute's (NEI's) Template No.
NEI 07-10, titled "Generic FSAR Template Guidance for Process Control Program (PCP),"
Revision 2, dated February 2008, which is contemplated to be incorporated by reference by applicants as a sufficient program description consistent with the above.
 
The listed item addresses technical and regulatory clarifications remaining to be resolved in order to develop a safety evaluation of the generic program, based on the staff's review of the template against U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) regulatory and technical requirements and guidance. The RAI is tied to a specific section of the NEI template, and includes a suggested modification to the existing text for the purpose of addressing the technical issue identified by NRC staff. The staff recognizes other approaches may be used in achieving the same objectives. The recommendation is presented for the purpose of attaining a mutual understanding of issues identified by the staff and facilitate NEI's effort in revising the template. The comment does not address editorial or typographic topics the authors may wish to review prior to finalization for NRC staff evaluation.
: 1. Executive Summary / Section 1, Introduction
 
The Executive Summary on page i, or a third paragraph in Section 1 on page 1, should be edited to include statements that users should review the reference section for additional information related to NRC regulatory requirements and guidance, that the template describes the elements of the PCP at the functional level consistent with 10 CFR 52.79, and that if these programs are implemented as described, they do not require implementation of inspections, tests, analyses and acceptance criteria in the COL application.

REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING NUCLEAR ENERGY INSTITUTE TOPICAL REPORT 07-10, GENERIC FINAL SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT TEMPLATE GUIDANCE FOR PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM, REVISION 2 (PROJECT NO. 689; TAC MD6860)

Dear Mr. Bell:

By letter dated September 27, 2007, the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) submitted for U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff review its proposed topical report, NEI 07-10, Generic Final Safety Analysis Report Template Guidance for Process Control Program (PCP)

Revision 0. Based on comments and input distributed at public meetings, NEI submitted Revision 1 of the PCP template in October 2007 and Revision 2 in February 2008. The staff has determined that additional information is necessary to complete its review. On April 1, 2008, an electronic copy of the enclosed request for additional information (RAI) was transmitted to Ralph Andersen of NEI. Although this RAI has already been provided to you electronically, we will not expect a response until 30 days following the date of issuance of this letter; therefore, please let me know if you will not be able to provide your written reply within that time period.

If you have any questions or comments regarding this matter, please contact Ms. Sheryl A. Burrows by telephone at (301) 415-6086 or by e-mail at Sheryl.Burrows@nrc.gov.

Sincerely,

/RA/

Request for Additional Information Generic FSAR Template Guidance for Process Control Program NEI 07-10 Rev. 2, February 2008 Consistent with Regulatory Guide 1.206, Section C.IV.1, and 10 CFR 52.79, a Combined License (COL) Application must contain a Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) that includes information at a level sufficient to enable the Commission to reach a final conclusion on all safety matters that must be resolved . . . before issuance of a COL. The following is a request for additional information (RAI) on the Nuclear Energy Institutes (NEIs) Template No.

NEI 07-10, titled Generic FSAR Template Guidance for Process Control Program (PCP),

Revision 2, dated February 2008, which is contemplated to be incorporated by reference by applicants as a sufficient program description consistent with the above.

The listed item addresses technical and regulatory clarifications remaining to be resolved in order to develop a safety evaluation of the generic program, based on the staffs review of the template against U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) regulatory and technical requirements and guidance. The RAI is tied to a specific section of the NEI template, and includes a suggested modification to the existing text for the purpose of addressing the technical issue identified by NRC staff. The staff recognizes other approaches may be used in achieving the same objectives. The recommendation is presented for the purpose of attaining a mutual understanding of issues identified by the staff and facilitate NEIs effort in revising the template. The comment does not address editorial or typographic topics the authors may wish to review prior to finalization for NRC staff evaluation.

1. Executive Summary / Section 1, Introduction The Executive Summary on page i, or a third paragraph in Section 1 on page 1, should be edited to include statements that users should review the reference section for additional information related to NRC regulatory requirements and guidance, that the template describes the elements of the PCP at the functional level consistent with 10 CFR 52.79, and that if these programs are implemented as described, they do not require implementation of inspections, tests, analyses and acceptance criteria in the COL application.
