nclude strategies in the following areas: (i) Fire fighting; (ii) Operations to mitigate fuel damage; and (iii) Actions to minimize radiological release. 10 CFR 50.34(i) and 10 CFR 52.80(d) require an operating license applicant and a COL applicant, respectively, to submit descriptions and plans for implementation of the guidance and strategies intended to maintain or restore core cooling, containment, and SFP cooling capabilities under the circumstances associated with the LOLAs of the plant due to explosions or fire as required by 10 CFR 50.54(hh)(2). Staff Position on NEI Guidance The NRC staff considers conformance with guidance issued on February 25, 2005 (NRC, 2005), TI 2515/168 (NRC, 2006b), and NEI 06-12, “B.5.b, Phase 2 & 3 Submittal Guideline,” Revision 2 (NEI, 2006), acceptable for use by holders of a construction permit or a license to operate a power reactor facility issued under 10 CFR Part 50 prior to May 26, 2009, in satisfying the Commission’s requirements in 10 CFR 50.54(hh)(2) and 10 CFR 50.34(i). The NRC staff considers conformance with the February 25, 2005, guidance, TI 2515/168, and NEI 06-12, Revision 3 (NEI, 2009) acceptable for use by applicants for a 10 CFR Part 52 COL or a 10 CFR Part 50 operating license, in satisfying the Commission’s requirements in 10 CFR 50.54(hh)(2), 10 CFR 50.34(i) and 10 CFR 52.80(d) with the following exceptions: a. Section 4.2.1 of NEI 06-12, Revision 3 states that new nuclear power plants (NPPs) should address the Phase 11 issues as current power reactor licensees have done by implementing guidance issued by the NRC on February 25, 2005. However, additional clarifying information documented in Sections 05.02(c) and 05.02(d) of NRC TI 2515/168 was disseminated to 10 CFR Part 50 licensees on January 18 and 26, 2006. This clarifying information describes acceptable methods, along with staff acceptance criteria, for satisfying the NRC staff’s expectations documented in the February 25, 2005, guidance. b.
