SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction 

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC) is issuing a new 

regulatory guide and withdrawing an 

outdated regulatory guide in the 

agency’s ‘‘Regulatory Guide’’ series. 

This series was developed to describe 

and make available to the public 

information such as methods that are 

acceptable to the NRC staff for 

implementing specific parts of the 

agency’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. 

Regulatory Guide 1.131, 

‘‘Qualification Tests of Electric Cables, 

Field Splices, and Connections for 

Light-Water-Cooled Nuclear Power 

Plants,’’ was issued for comment in 

August 1977 and never finalized. 

Regulatory Guide 1.131 is being 

withdrawn because its guidance has 

been replaced by the guidance in 

Regulatory Guide 1.211. 

Regulatory Guide 1.211, 

‘‘Qualification of Safety-Related Cables 

and Field Splices for Nuclear Power 

Plants,’’ was issued with a temporary 

identification as Draft Regulatory Guide 

1132. This guide describes a method 

that the staff of the NRC considers 

acceptable for use in complying with 

the Commission’s regulations for the 

qualification of safety-related cables and 

field splices for nuclear power plants. 

The regulations established by the 

NRC in Title 10, Part 50, ‘‘Domestic 

Licensing of Production and Utilization 

Facilities,’’ of the Code of Federal 

Regulations (10 CFR Part 50) require 

that structures, systems, and 

components that are important to safety 

in a nuclear power plant must be 

designed to accommodate the effects of 

environmental conditions (i.e., remain 

functional under postulated designbasis events (DBEs)). Toward that end, 

General Design Criterion (GDC) 1, 

‘‘Quality Standards and Records,’’ GDC 

2, ‘‘Design Bases for Protection Against 

Natural Phenomena,’’ GDC 4, 

‘‘Environmental and Dynamic Effects 

Design Bases,’’ and GDC 23, ‘‘Protection 

System Failure Modes,’’ of Appendix A, 

‘‘General Design Criteria for Nuclear 

Power Plants,’’ to 10 CFR Part 50 

contain the general requirements. 

Augmenting those general requirements, 

the specific requirements pertaining to 

the qualification of certain electrical 

equipment important to safety appear in 

10 CFR 50.49, ‘‘Environmental 

Qualification of Electric Equipment 

Important to Safety for Nuclear Power 

Plants.’’ In addition, Criterion III, 

‘‘Design Control,’’ of Appendix B, 

‘‘Quality Assurance Criteria for Nuclear 

Power Plants,’’ to 10 CFR Part 50 

requires that, where a test program is 

used to verify the adequacy of a specific 

design feature, the test program must 

include suitable qualification testing of 

a prototype unit under the most severe 

DBE. 

II. Further Information 

In June 2007, DG–1132 was published 

with a public comment period of 60 

days from the issuance of the guide. The 

public comment period closed on 

September 14, 2007. The staff’s 

responses to the public comments are 

located in the NRC’s Agencywide 

Documents Access and Management 

System (ADAMS), Accession Number 

ML081690227. Electronic copies of 

Regulatory Guide 1.211 are available 

through the NRC’s public Web site 

under ‘‘Regulatory Guides’’ at http:// 

www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doccollections/. 

In addition, regulatory guides are 

available for inspection at the NRC’s 

Public Document Room (PDR), which is 

located at Room O–1F21, One White 

Flint North, 11555 Rockville Pike, 

Rockville, Maryland 20852–2738. 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) 397–4209, by 

fax at (301) 415–3548, and by e-mail to 

pdr.resource@nrc.gov. 

Regulatory guides are not 

copyrighted, and NRC approval is not 

required to reproduce them.

of April 2009.

Facility Operating License No. DPR–16 

to Exelon Generation Company, LLC 

(the licensee), the operator of the Oyster 

Creek Nuclear Generating Station 

(OCNGS). Renewed facility operating 

license No. DPR–16 authorizes 

operation of OCNGS by the licensee at 

reactor core power levels not in excess 

of 1930 megawatts thermal, in 

accordance with the provisions of the 

OCNGS renewed license and its 

technical specifications. 

The notice also serves as the record of 

decision for the renewal of Facility 

Operating License No. DPR–16, 

consistent with Title 10 of the Code of 

Federal Regulations (10 CFR), Section 

51.103 ‘‘Record of Decision—General.’’ 

As discussed in the final Supplemental 

Environmental Impact Statement 

(FSEIS) for OCNGS, dated January 2007, 

the Commission has considered a range 

of reasonable alternatives that included 

generation from oil, wind, solar, 

hydropower, geothermal, wood waste, 

municipal solid waste, other biomassderived fuels, fuel cells, delayed 

retirement, conservation measures and, 

tidal and ocean energy. The factors 

considered in the record of decision can 

be found in the supplemental 

environmental impact statement for 

OCNGS. 

OCNGS is a boiling water reactor 

located in Lacey Township, Ocean 

County, New Jersey, approximately two 

miles south of the community of Forked 

River. OCNGS was operated by 

AmerGen Energy Company, LLC, until 

January 9, 2009, when the license was 

transferred to Exelon Generation 

Company, LLC (74 FR 4777), in 

accordance with Section 184 of the 

Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, 

and 10 CFR Section 50.80, ‘‘Transfer of 

Licenses.’’ The application for the 

renewed license complied with the 

standards and requirements of the 

Atomic Energy Act of 1954 (the Act), as 

amended, and the Commission’s 

regulations. As required by the Act and 

the Commission’s regulations in 10 CFR 

Chapter I, the Commission has made 

appropriate findings, which are set forth 

in the license. Prior public notice of the 

action involving the proposed issuance 

of the renewed license and of an 

opportunity for a hearing regarding the 

proposed issuance of the renewed 

license was published in the Federal 

Register on September 15, 2005 (70 FR 

54585).

Postal Product Price Changes 

AGENCY: Postal Regulatory Commission. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This document announces the 

Postal Service’s filing of a notice of 

price changes for several competitive 

products and invites public comment. 

The price changes are for products 

identified in a Postal Service notice of 

errata to changes in rates of general 

applicability. 

DATES: Postal Service responses are due 

April 20, 2009. Comments are due May 

1, 2009. 

ADDRESSES: Submit comments 

electronically via the Commission’s

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

February 10, 2009, the Postal Service 

filed a notice with the Commission 

concerning changes in rates of general 

applicability for competitive products.1

The Commission issued its final 

decision on these matters approving the 

changes on March 12, 2009.2 These 

price changes are scheduled to become 

effective May 11, 2009. 

Postal Service filing. On April 9, 2009, 

the Postal Service filed a Notice of 

Errata to United States Postal Service 

Notice of Changes in Rates of General 

Applicability for Competitive Products 

Established in Governors’ Decision No. 

09–01 (Notice).3 The Notice explains 

that the price charts in the Mail 

Classification Schedule language 

included as Attachment B to the 

Governors’ Decision omitted charges for 

Pickup on Demand service for certain 

competitive products. The Postal 

Service states that the price change from 

$14.75 to $15.30 for Pickup on Demand 

for Express Mail, Priority Mail, and 

certain international competitive 

products was inadvertently omitted in 

the materials included in the Filing, 

although the same price change was 

made for certain market dominant 

services that offer Pickup on Demand 

service in Docket No. R2009–2. 

The Postal Service notes that it has 

sent a notice of correction for 

publication in the Federal Register, and 

has advised the Governors of this matter
