SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction 

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC or Commission) is 

issuing for public comment a draft guide 

in the agency’s ‘‘Regulatory Guide’’ 

series. This series was developed to 

describe and make available to the 

public such information as methods that 

are acceptable to the NRC staff for 

implementing specific parts of the 

NRC’s regulations, techniques that the 

staff uses in evaluating specific 

problems or postulated accidents, and 

data that the staff needs in its review of 

applications for permits and licenses. 

The draft regulatory guide (DG), 

entitled ‘‘Qualification of Connection 

Assemblies for Nuclear Power Plants,’’ is 

temporarily identified by its task 

number, DG–1254, which should be 

mentioned in all related 

correspondence. DG–1254 is proposed 

Revision 1 of Regulatory Guide 1.156, 

dated November 1987. 

This guide describes a method that 

the NRC considers acceptable for 

complying with the Commission’s 

regulations on the environmental 

qualification of connection assemblies 

and environmental seals in combination 

with cables or wires as assemblies for 

service in nuclear power plants. The 

environmental qualification helps 

ensure that connection assemblies can 

perform their safety functions during 

and after a design-basis event. 

Title 10 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations, Part 50, ‘‘Domestic 

Licensing of Production and Utilization 

Facilities’’ (10 CFR Part 50), Appendix 

B, ‘‘Quality Assurance Criteria for 

Nuclear Power Plants and Fuel 

Reprocessing Plants,’’ Criterion III, 

‘‘Design Control,’’ requires, in part, that 

test programs used to verify the 

adequacy of specific design features 

include suitable qualification testing of 

a prototype unit under the most adverse 

design conditions. 

In 10 CFR 50.49, ‘‘Environmental 

Qualification of Electric Equipment 

Important to Safety for Nuclear Power 

Plants,’’ the NRC requires that certain 

electric equipment important to safety 

be qualified for its application and 

specified performance. The regulation 

also identifies requirements for 

establishing environmental qualification 

methods and qualification parameters. 

II. Further Information 

The NRC staff is soliciting comments 

on DG–1254. Comments may be 

accompanied by relevant information or 

supporting data and should mention 

DG–1254 in the subject line. Comments 

submitted in writing or in electronic 

form will be made available to the 

public in their entirety through the 

NRC’s Agencywide Documents Access 

and Management System (ADAMS). 

Comments would be most helpful if 

received by April 27, 2011. Comments 

received after that date will be 

considered if it is practical to do so, but 

the NRC is able to ensure consideration 

only for comments received on or before 

this date. Although a time limit is given, 

comments and suggestions in 

connection with items for inclusion in 

guides currently being developed or 

improvements in all published guides 

are encouraged at any time. 

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments 

by any one of the following methods. 

Please include Docket ID NRC–2011– 

0046 in the subject line of your 

comments. Comments submitted in 

writing or in electronic form will be 

posted on the NRC Web site and on the 

Federal rulemaking Web site 

Regulations.gov. Because your 

comments will not be edited to remove 

any identifying or contact information, 

the NRC cautions you against including 

any information in your submission that 

you do not want to be publicly 

disclosed. 

The NRC requests that any party 

soliciting or aggregating comments 

received from other persons for 

submission to the NRC inform those 

persons that the NRC will not edit their
