NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

10 CFR Part 50

Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities; Public Workshop Meeting Cancellation

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

ACTION: Cancellation of public workshop meeting.

SUMMARY: On December 3, 1998, 63 FR 66772 stated: ``The Commission has requested the staff to develop and assess options on incorporating risk insights in the Code of Federal Regulations 10 CFR 50.59. This regulation permits licensees to implement certain changes that do not require prior NRC approval. On or about December 19, 1998, the staff will place in the Public Document Room (PDR) a draft report that identifies options for incorporating risk insights into the existing 10 CFR 50.59 process. At the same time that the document is placed in the PDR, the staff will issue a notice to hold a public workshop on January 19, 1999, at the NRC auditorium, in Rockville, Maryland. That notice will also solicit comments on this program.''

This notice makes the following three changes to that previous notice: (1) The draft report that identifies options for incorporating risk insights into the existing 10 CFR 50.59 process will be placed in the PDR during the week of December 21, 1998, (2) the public workshop on January 19, 1999, is canceled, and (3) a future notice will be issued regarding the incorporation of risk insights into application of the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50. That future notice will incorporate the previous separately planned public comments and public meetings regarding the 10 CFR 50.59 process.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jack Guttmann, 301-415-7732.

Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 22nd day of December, 1998.

For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Mary Drouin, Acting Branch Chief, Probabilistic Risk Analysis Branch, Division of Systems Technology, Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research.
