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, eliminate or modify unnecessary requirements in some areas, clarify the Commission's original intent of the rule, and improve overall program effectiveness and efficiency, and establish threshold for the control of working hours at nuclear power plants to ensure that working hours in excess of the thresholds are controlled through a risk-informed deviation process. The proposed rule was published in August 2005 and includes provisions to provide significantly greater assurance that worker fatigue does not adversely affect the operational safety of nuclear power plants. This proposed rule subsumes the proposed rule "Nuclear Power Plant Worker Fatigue" (RIN 3150-AG99). This rulemaking would address the petitions for rulemaking submitted by the Virginia Electric and Power Company (VEPCO) (PRM-26-1) and Barry Quigley (PRM-26-2) related to worker fatigue. | |
