For additional information concerning the preparation of acceptable LRAs, applicants may refer to NUREG-1800 or NUREG-1801 for operation from 40 to 60 years. The NRC staff endorses NEI 17-01 as acceptable for complying with the requirements of 10 CFR Part 54 for preparing an SLRA. For additional information concerning the preparation of acceptable SLRAs, applicants may refer to NUREG-2192 or NUREG-2191 for operation from 60 to 80 years. Applicants for initial license renewal may also follow the guidance in NUREG-2191 and NUREG- 2192 if they inform the staff that they intend to do so. Applicants may meet the intent of the license renewal rule for initial license renewal or subsequent license renewal using methods other than those described in Revision 6 of NEI 95-10 or NEI 17-01, respectively, as endorsed in this RG.
