Public Meeting to Discuss Proposed Revisions to Draft Subsequent License Renewal 

Documents 

On January 21, 2016, the staff held a Category 3 meeting and webinar to discuss the proposed 

revisions to the draft Generic Aging Lessons Learned for Subsequent License Renewal 

(GALL-SLR) Report and Standard Review Plan for the Review of Subsequent License Renewal 

Applications for Nuclear Power Plants (SRP-SLR), as well as the bases for the proposed 

changes. These draft documents describe acceptable methods for managing aging for reactor 

operation from 60 to 80 years, as well as techniques for the staff to use in evaluating 

applications for subsequent license renewal. Additional public meetings are scheduled for 

February 19 and February 23; participation details will be posted on the NRC’s Website at 

http://meetings.nrc.gov/pmns/mtg. The NRC published a notice in the Federal Register

(80 FR 79957) requesting public comment by February 29, 2016, on the draft Subsequent 

License Renewal documents. 

Staff Issues Renewed Operating License for Braidwood Station, Units 1 and 2
