renced. 6.5 Changes to Surveillance Program Changes to the surveillance program previously described in the Thermal Annealing Report (10 CFR 50.66(b) (3) (ii) (B)) that are the result of the annealing operation should be described in detail. If no changes are necessary, the Thermal Annealing Results Report should so state. 6.6 Allowable Operating Period Based on the degree of recovery and the projected reembrittlement trend, an analysis should be provided to demonstrate the period of operation for which the requirements of 10 CFR 50.60 and 10 CFR 50.61 will be satisfied. 1.162-19 7. PUBLIC INFORMATION AND PARTICIPATION 7.1 Thermal Annealing Report Upon receipt of a Thermal Annealing Report, and a minimum of 30 days before the licensee starts ther mal annealing, the NRC will: (1) Notify and solicit comments from local and State governments in the vicinity of the site where the thermal annealing will take place and any Indian Nation or other indigenous people that have treaty or statutory rights that could be affected by the thermal annealing, (2) Publish a notice of a public meeting in the Fed eral Register and in a forum, such as local newspapers, which is readily accessible to individuals in the vicinity of the site, to solicit comments from the public, and (3) Hold a public meeting on the licensee's Ther mal Annealing Report. 7.2 Completion or Termination of Thermal Annealing Within 15 days after the NRC's receipt of the licensee's written submittal on the completion or termination of thermal annealing as described in Sec tion 5 of this regulatory guide, the NRC staff will place in the NRC Public Document Room a summary of its inspection of the licensee's thermal annealing, and the Commission will hold a public meeting on the anneal ing. The purposes of this public meeting are (1) for the licensee to explain to the NRC and the public the re sults of the reactor pressure vessel annealing, (2) for the NRC to discuss its inspection of the reactor vessel annealing,
