The NRC staff and stakeholders discussed preliminary proposed rule language for Part 26, Fitness for Duty and potential considerations for applying existing Part 26 rule language to fatigue management programs for future Part 53 facilities. The next Part 53 public meeting is scheduled for February 8 and will be focused on interacting with non-governmental organizations and others that may have not been able to fully participate in the rulemaking interactions to date.
