## Abstract

A critical part of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) mission is licensing and regulating the use of byproduct materials, including in radiation therapy. More than half of the reported misadministration events in the medical use of byproduct materials in radiation therapy are attributed to human error.

In support of the NRC recommendation to continue to apply and extend a risk-management framework (as discussed in NUREG-2150 [1], *A Proposed Risk Management Regulatory Framework*), this report discusses an approach to improve patient safety that is based on human reliability analysis (HRA), traditionally part of probabilistic risk assessments (PRAs). Using HRA and related disciplines, four key elements for improving patient safety are highlighted: 1) improved understanding of human error in radiation therapy; 2) improved ability to anticipate errors; 3) effective strategies for supporting humans in managing complexity; and 4) methods to evaluate and monitor the effectiveness of corrective actions. This report also includes reviews of studies conducted by the NRC using human reliability analysis methods and recommends the continued application of these methods. Successful safety improvements from commercial aviation and nuclear power industries are examined and offered as an example of the feasibility of this approach. It is important to emphasize that target audiences for this document include, but are not limited to, decision makers, regulators, designers, and external vendors engaging with the risk-informed framework.

FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 14-7697

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff - Appellee,

v.

LANCE D. YOUNG,

Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern 

District of West Virginia, at Wheeling. Frederick P. Stamp, 

Jr., Senior District Judge. (5:05-cr-00063-FPS-1; 5:09-cv00116-FPS-JSK)

Submitted: April 23, 2015 Decided: April 27, 2015

Before SHEDD, DUNCAN, and THACKER, Circuit Judges.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Lance D. Young, Appellant Pro Se. Randolph John Bernard, OFFICE 

OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Wheeling, West Virginia, for 

Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Lance D. Young seeks to appeal the district court’s orders

accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying 

relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2012) motion, and denying 

reconsideration. The orders are not appealable unless a circuit 

justice or judge issues a certificate of appealability. 28 

U.S.C. § 2253(c)(1)(B) (2012). A certificate of appealability 

will not issue absent “a substantial showing of the denial of a 

constitutional right.” 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2) (2012). 

When the district court denies relief on the merits, a 

prisoner satisfies this standard by demonstrating that 

reasonable jurists would find that the district court’s 

assessment of the constitutional claims is debatable or wrong. 

Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484 (2000); see Miller-El v. 

Cockrell, 537 U.S. 322, 336-38 (2003). When the district court 

denies relief on procedural grounds, the prisoner must 

demonstrate both that the dispositive procedural ruling is 

debatable, and that the motion states a debatable claim of the 

denial of a constitutional right. Slack, 529 U.S. at 484-85. 

We have independently reviewed the record and conclude that 

Young has not made the requisite showing. Accordingly, we deny 

a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal. We 

dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal 
3

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before 

this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED
No. 82-5899.

## Abstract

This document establishes the basis for the changes that constitute Revision 1 to NUREG-1801, “Generic Aging Lessons Learned (GALL) Report,” and Revision 1 to NUREG-1800, “Standard Review Plan for Review of License Renewal Applications for Nuclear Power Plants” (SRP-LR).

The technical changes that were made when revising the guidance contained in NUREG-1801 are captured in this document, along with the basis for the change. Changes to NUREG-1800, many of which derive from the changes to NUREG-1801, are also discussed in this document. Consequently, this document provides an understanding of the underlying rationale that NRC used in developing the current revisions of these guidance documents.

## Abstract

Digital sampling of analog signals adds two types of errors, aliasing and finite wordlength error, to the sampled version of the signal. Aliasing is characterized by high frequency components misrepresented as low frequency components in the sampled signal. It is greatly influenced by the sample rate, and may lead to degraded performance in monitoring, alarm, control, and protection systems. Since computer wordlengths are finite in length, digital systems are limited in their capability to represent real number values. Finite wordlength errors related to round-off, truncation, and data conversion have the potential to adversely impact the performance of digital instrumentation and control (I&C) systems. The Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research is investigating good engineering practices regarding aliasing and finite wordlength errors in nuclear facilities. Hazards associated with these errors are minimized through proper design and selection of sample rates and computer wordlengths. This document provides the regulatory background, theoretical information, practical issues, best engineering practices, and examples associated with sample rate and computer wordlength selection.

## Abstract

This environmental impact statement (EIS) has been prepared in response to an application submitted to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) by System Energy Resources, Inc. (SERI) for an early site permit (ESP). The proposed action requested in SERI's application is for the NRC to (1) approve a site within the existing Grand Gulf Nuclear Station boundaries as suitable for the construction and operation of a new nuclear power generating facility, and (2) issue an ESP for the proposed site identified as the Grand Gulf ESP site co-located with the existing Grand Gulf Nuclear Station. This EIS includes the NRC staff's analysis that considers and weighs the environmental impacts of constructing and operating up to two new nuclear units at the Grand Gulf ESP site or at alternative sites, and mitigation measures available for reducing or avoiding adverse impact. It also includes the staff's recommendation to the Commission regarding the proposed action.

The staff's recommendation to the Commission related to the environmental aspects of the proposed action is that the ESP should be issued. The staff's evaluation of the safety and emergency preparedness aspects of the proposed action will be documented in a separate safety analysis report prepared in accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 52.

This recommendation is based on (1) the application, including the environmental report, submitted by SERI; (2) consultation with Federal, State, Tribal, and local agencies; (3) the staff's independent review; (4) the staff's consideration of comments related to the environmental review that were received during the public scoping process; and (5) the assessments summarized in this EIS, including the potential mitigation measures identified in the environmental report and this EIS. In addition, in making its recommendation, the staff concluded that there are no environmentally preferable or obviously superior sites.

Reliability Assessment -- correction Higgins, Cortney
to: RobertJ Wayland 03/01/2011 09:33 AM
Cc: Bill Maxwell

Hi Bob,

As we reviews the reliability assessment TSD, we spotted an error in Table 1. The Net Change in Policy Case should be -9,489, rather than -9,190, assuming the subcategories (e.g. coal retirements, coal capacity derated, etc.) are all correct.

It might help to QA the TSD for other errors.

Thanks, Cortney
