245 Revision 0, Page 3 • 10 CFR Part 72, “Licensing Requirements for the Independent Storage of Spent Nuclear Fuel, High-Level Radioactive Waste, and Reactor-Related Greater Than Class C Waste,” provides requirements, procedures, and criteria for the issuance of licenses to receive, transfer, and possess power reactor spent fuel, power reactor-related Greater than Class C (GTCC) waste, and other radioactive materials associated with spent fuel storage in an independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI) and the terms and conditions under which the Commission will issue these licenses. o 10 CFR 72.122: Overall requirements. Related Guidance PFM is likely to be used to risk-inform licensing applications. Consequently, guidance documents such as the following related to risk-informed activities as well as probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) may be related to this RG: • NUREG-0800, “Standard Review Plan for the Review of Safety Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants: LWR Edition” (SRP), Chapter 19, “Severe Accidents,” Section 19.2, “Review of Risk Information Used To Support Permanent Plant-Specific Changes to the Licensing Basis: General Guidance” (Ref. 5), provides general guidance on applications that address changes to the licensing basis. • NUREG/CR-7278, “Technical Basis for the Use of Probabilistic Fracture Mechanics in Regulatory Applications” (Ref. 6) • RG 1.174, “An Approach for Using Probabilistic Risk Assessment of Risk-Informed Decisions on Plant-Specific Changes to the Licensing Basis” (Ref. 7). • RG 1.175, “An Approach for Plant-Specific, Risk-Informed Decisionmaking: Inservice Testing” (Ref. 8). • RG 1.178, “An Approach for Plant-Specific Risk-Informed Decisionmaking for Inservice Inspection of Piping” (Ref. 9). • RG 1.200, “Acceptability of Probabilistic Risk Assessment Results for Risk-Informed Activities” (Ref. 10). • RG 1.201, “Guidelines for Categorizing Structures, Systems, and
