R 52.99(c)(2) ITAAC Post-Closure Notifications to report an event materially altering a closed ITAAC, as well as its resolution. Reporting thresholds for an event altering a closed ITAAC are described in NEI 08-01 as approved for use by this Regulatory Guide. (15) Any substantiated information received by the NRC, including information gained through inspection activities or allegations, can invalidate the closed status of any ITAAC. (16) If (15) is “yes,” then, depending on the severity of the substantiated information received, the FRN for each affected ITAAC could be updated accordingly. Also depending on the severity of the situation, the licensee may or may not have options available to act accordingly to preserve the FRN for the affected ITAAC. (17) The licensee will submit an “All ITAAC Complete” notification pursuant to 10 CFR 52.99(c)(4) upon completion of all ITAAC in a combined license and confirmation that all acceptance criteria remain met in preparation for the 10 CFR 52.103(g) finding. (18) This process block reflects consideration of whether the licensee has met all ITAAC acceptance criteria. (19) If (18) is “no,” then the licensee needs to complete all ITAAC and ensure that it meets, and continues to meet, all the acceptance criteria to support the 10 CFR 52.103(g) finding. (20) At the time of the 10 CFR 52.103(g) finding, all acceptance criteria must be met, such as when (18) is “yes.” Also, this timeline and flowchart does not cover an interim operation scenario whereby the Commission could authorize a period of interim operation that would allow the licensee to load fuel per 10 CFR 52.103(c). (21) With the 10 CFR 52.103(g) finding, the licensee will be authorized to load fuel and enter operational status.
