NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
Draft Commission Paper ``Emergency Planning Under 10 CFR Part
52''
This notice announces the availability for comment of draft
Commission paper, ``Emergency Planning Under 10 CFR part 52.'' The
paper discusses the staff's views on how emergency planning
requirements will be addressed at each phase of nuclear power plant
licensing under 10 CFR part 52: Early site permits, standard design
certifications, and combined licenses.
For early site permit applications, NRC and Federal Emergency
management Agency (FEMA) staffs have jointly developed criteria in a
proposed supplement to NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1, ``Criteria for
Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and
Preparedness in Support of Nuclear Power Plants.'' The proposed
supplement, containing guidance for writing, reviewing, and approving
emergency plans and information to be submitted with an early site
permit application, will be issued separately for public comment before
its final publication.
For standard design certifications, the NRC staff has identified
inspections, tests, analyses, and acceptance criteria (TAAC) pertinent
to the emergency response facilities that are applicable to standard
designs. With regard to combined licenses, the principle issues involve
the form and role of ITAAC and the treatment of preoperational
emergency preparedness exercises. An application for a combined license
must include proposed ITAAC including those applicable to emergency
preparedness. The emergency preparedness exercise, which is to be
conducted prior to authorization for full power operation, will be
included in the ITAAC.
Any interested party may submit comments on this draft Commission
paper for consideration by the staff. To be certain of consideration,
comments must be received within 90 days of the date of this Federal
Register notice and should be sent to the contact indicated below.
Comments received after this date will be considered to the extent
practical.

Public Document Room, Gelman Building, 2120 L Street NW., Washington,
