Standard Review Plan for the Review of a License Application for a Fuel Cycle Facility; Notice of Availability

요약

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has issued NUREG-1520 entitled Standard Review Plan (SRP) for the Review of an Application for a Fuel Cycle Facility. This SRP provides guidance to the NRC reviewers in the Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards (NMSS) who perform safety and environmental impact reviews of applications to construct or modify and operate nuclear fuel cycle facilities licensed under 10 CFR part 70. As such, adherence to this SRP helps to ensure the quality, uniformity, and predictability of the staff reviews. This SRP also makes information about licensing acceptance criteria widely available to interested members of the public and the regulated industry. Each SRP section addresses the responsibilities of the staff reviewers, the matters that they review, the Commission's regulations pertinent to specific technical matters, the acceptance criteria used by the staff, the process and procedures used to accomplish the review, and the conclusions that are appropriate to summarize the review.
