Abstract:
Final Rule: 10 CFR Part 52, AP1000 Design Certification Amendment The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or Commission) is amending its regulations to certify an amendment to the AP1000 standard plant design. The amendment replaces the combined license (COL) information items and design acceptance criteria (DAC) with specific design information, addresses the effects of the impact of a large commercial aircraft, incorporate design improvements, and increases standardization of the design. This action is necessary so that applicants or licensees intending to construct and operate an AP1000 design may do so by referencing this regulation (AP1000 design certification rule (DCR)), and need not demonstrate in their applications the safety of the certified design as amended. The applicant for this amendment to the AP1000 design is Westinghouse Electric Company, LLC (Westinghouse).

The overall burden for this final rule will increase by 24 hours from 204,075 hours to 204,099 hours because of the following: (1) requiring combined license applicants to report information demonstrating that an entity other than the original applicant is qualified to supply the AP1000 certified design, unless the original applicant supplies the design for the combined license applicant's use; (2) an applicant referencing the AP1000 design, that proposes to depart from the information required by 10 CFR 52.47(a)(28) to be included in the FSAR, to consider the effect of the changed AIA feature or capability on the original 10 CFR 50.150(a) assessment and to document how the modified design features and functional capabilities continue to meet the assessment requirements in 10 CFR 50.150(a)(1); and (3) the applicant for this amendment to the AP1000 design, and any applicant of licensee referencing this amendment, to maintain a copy of the aircraft impact assessment performed to comply with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.150(a) for the term of the certification or license (including any period of renewal).
