Initial Test Program of Emergency Core Cooling Systems for New Boiling-Water Reactors

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing a new regulatory guide (RG), 1.79.1, "Initial Test Program of Emergency Core Cooling Systems for New Boiling-Water Reactors." This RG describes testing methods the NRC staff considers acceptable for demonstrating the operability of emergency core cooling systems (ECCSs) for boiling- water reactors (BWRs) whose licenses are issued after the date of issuance of this RG (new BWRs).
