Title: Fitness for Duty Programs | |
Abstract: The proposed rule would amend the Commission's regulations to ensure compatibility with the Department of Health and Human Services guidelines, reduce unnecessary regulatory burden in some areas, clarify the Commission's original intent of the rule, and improve overall program effectiveness and efficiency. These revised requirements would reduce the industrywide annual cost for all licensees to comply with part 26 by approximately $15 million. The rulemaking will address the Regulatory Review Group items on audit frequency and annual submittal of data. This rulemaking would also address the petition for rulemaking submitted by the Virginia Electric and Power Company (VEPCO) (PRM-26-1). In addition, this rulemaking subsumes a previously separate rulemaking, Reduction in the Scope of Random Fitness-For-Duty Testing Requirements for Nuclear Power Reactor Licensees (part 26)(RIN 3150-AG62). Because of the subsumption of this rulemaking and other issues raised in response to the earlier proposed rule, a new proposed rule will be published. | |
