COMMISSION 

[NRC–2009–0137] 

Draft Regulatory Guide: Issuance, 

Availability 

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice of Issuance and 

Availability of Draft Regulatory Guide, 

DG–1218. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Steven A. Laur, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission, Washington, DC 20555– 

0001, telephone: (301) 415–2889 or email to Steven.Laur@nrc.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction 

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC) 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), titled, 

‘‘Risk-Informed, Performance-Based Fire 

Protection for Existing Light-Water 

Nuclear Power Plants,’’ is temporarily 

identified by its task number, DG–1218, 

which should be mentioned in all 

related correspondence. DG–1218 is the 

proposed Revision 1 of Regulatory 

Guide 1.205. 

DG–1218 provides guidance for use in 

complying with the requirements that 

the NRC has promulgated for riskinformed, performance-based fire 

protection programs (FPPs) that comply 

with Title 10, section 50.48(c), of the 

Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR 

50.48(c)) and the referenced 2001 

Edition of the National Fire Protection 

Association (NFPA) standard, NFPA 


PWALKER on PROD1PC71 with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 56 / Wednesday, March 25, 2009 / Notices 12911 

805, ‘‘Performance-Based Standard for 

Fire Protection for Light-Water Reactor 

Electric Generating Plants.’’ 

In accordance with 10 CFR 50.48(a), 

each operating nuclear power plant 

must have an FPP that satisfies General 

Design Criterion (GDC) 3, ‘‘Fire 

Protection,’’ of Appendix A, ‘‘General 

Design Criteria for Nuclear Power 

Plants,’’ to 10 CFR part 50, ‘‘Domestic 

Licensing of Production and Utilization 

Facilities.’’ In addition, plants that were 

licensed to operate before January 1, 

1979, must meet the requirements of 

Appendix R, ‘‘Fire Protection Program 

for Nuclear Power Facilities Operating 

Prior to January 1, 1979,’’ to 10 CFR part 

50, except to the extent provided for in 

10 CFR 50.48(b). Plants licensed to 

operate after January 1, 1979, are 

required to comply with 10 CFR 

50.48(a), as well as any plant-specific 

fire protection license conditions and 

technical specifications. 

II. Further Information 

The NRC staff is soliciting comments 

on DG–1218. Comments may be 

accompanied by relevant information or 

supporting data and should mention 

DG–1218 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). 

Personal information will not be 

removed from your comments. You may 

submit comments by any of the 

following methods: 

1. Mail comments to: Chief, 

Rulemaking and Directives Branch, MS 

TWB–05–B01M, Office of 

Administration, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission, Washington, DC 20555–

2. Fax comments to: Chief, 

Rulemaking and Directives Branch, 

Office of Administration, U.S. Nuclear 

Regulatory Commission at (301) 492–

Requests for technical information 

about DG–1218 may be directed to the 

NRC contact, Steven Laur at (301) 415– 

2889 or e-mail to Steven.Laur@nrc.gov. 

Comments would be most helpful if 

received by May 22, 2009. 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. 

Electronic copies of DG–1218 are 

available through the NRC’s public Web 

site under Draft Regulatory Guides in 

the ‘‘Regulatory Guides’’ collection of 

the NRC’s Electronic Reading Room at 

http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doccollections/. Electronic copies are also 

available in ADAMS (http:// 

www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html), 

under Accession No. ML090420462. 

In addition, regulatory guides are 

available for inspection at the NRC’s 

Public Document Room (PDR), which is 

located at 11555 Rockville Pike, 

Rockville, Maryland. The PDR’s mailing 

address is USNRC PDR, Washington, DC 

20555–0001. The PDR can also be 

reached by telephone at (301) 415–4737 

or (800) 397–4205, by fax at (301) 415–

Materials License No. 21–26519–01, for 

Aastrom Biosciences, Ann Arbor, MI

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction 

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC) is considering the 

issuance of an amendment to terminate 

NRC Byproduct Materials License No. 

21–26519–01, which is held by Aastrom 

Biosciences (licensee). The issuance of 

the amendment would authorize the 

unrestricted release of the licensee’s 

facility located at 24 Frank Lloyd Wright 

Drive, Lobby K, Domino’s Farm, Ann 

Arbor, Michigan (the Facility). 

The NRC has prepared an 

Environmental Assessment (EA) in 

support of this proposed action in 

accordance with the requirements of 

Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations 

(CFR), part 51 (10 CFR part 51). Based 

on the EA, the NRC has concluded that 

a Finding of No Significant Impact 

(FONSI) is appropriate with respect to 

the proposed action. The amendment 

will be issued to the licensee following 

the publication of this FONSI and EA in 

the Federal Register. 

II. Environmental Assessment 

Identification of Proposed Action 

The proposed action would approve 

the licensee’s termination amendment 

request dated September 30, 2008, 

(ML090210643), and approve release of 

the Facility for unrestricted use in 

accordance with 10 CFR part 20, subpart 

E. The licensee operated a research 

laboratory in a 20,000 square foot leased 

space. License No. 21–26519–01 was 

issued on September 10, 1993, pursuant 

to 10 CFR part 30, and has been 

amended periodically since that time. 

This license authorized the use of 

unsealed byproduct materials for 

conducting a variety of research and 

development applications on laboratory 

bench tops and in hoods. The Facility 

is located in a mixed residential, 

agricultural and commercial area, and a 

former authorized location of use there 

was previously released by the NRC for 

unrestricted use. The licensee ceased 

licensed activities in April 2007 and 

Lobby K was used to store standard 

sources and a cell harvester. The 

licensee did not perform research 

activities involving licensed material in 

Lobby K. Based on the Licensee’s 

historical knowledge of the site and the 

conditions of the facility, the licensee 

determined that only routine 

decontamination activities, in 

accordance with their NRC approved, 

operating radiation safety procedures, 

were required. The licensee was not 

required to submit a decommissioning 

plan to the NRC because worker cleanup 

activities and procedures are consistent 

with those approved for routine 

operations. The licensee submitted a 

license termination request in a letter 

dated September 30, 2008, 

(ML090210643). The licensee submitted 

a final status survey report to the NRC 

on October 31, 2008, (ML083080216), 

and additional correspondence dated 

February 11, 2009, (ML090500353), 

which demonstrates that the Lobby K
