1The terminology for “updated FSARs” varies throughout the industry. In this guide, the terms updated FSAR,
UFSAR, and USAR (updated Safety Analysis Report) are equivalent and have the same meanings.
Regulatory guides are issued to describe and make available to the public such information as methods acceptable to the NRC staff for implementing specific parts of the NRC’s regulations, techniques ud by the staff in evaluating specific problems or postulated accidents, and data needed by the NRC staff in its review of applications for permits and licens. Regulatory guides are not substitutes for regulations, and compliance with them is not required. Methods and solutions different from tho t out in the guides will be acceptable if they provide a basis for the findings requisite to the issuance or continuance of a permit or licen by the Commission.

REGULATORY GUIDE
OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REGULATORY RESEARCH
REGULATORY GUIDE 1.181
(Draft was issued as DG-1083)
CONTENT OF THE UPDATED FINAL SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT
IN ACCORDANCE WITH 10 CFR 50.71(e)A. INTRODUCTION
In 10 CFR Part 50, “Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities,” Section 50.34,
“Contents of Applications; Technical Information,” contains requirements for the contents of applicati哺乳期喝牛奶
ons for construction permits and operating licens for nuclear power reactors. An application for a construction permit must include a preliminary safety analysis report (PSAR) pursuant to 10 CFR 50.34(a). An application for an operating licen must include a final safety analysis report (FSAR) in accordance with 10 CFR
50.34(b). For holders of operating licens, 10 CFR 50.71(e) requires updated FSARs 1 to be developed and periodically updated.
Guidance for the organization and contents of PSARs and FSARs has existed since June 30, 1966,when the “Guide to the Organization and Contents of Safety Analysis Reports” was issued. The most recent guidance document is Revision 3 of Regulatory Guide 1.70, “Standard Format and Content of Safety Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants (LWR Edition),“ (November 1978). Limited guidance for the format and content of UFSARs was also provided in Generic Letter 80-110, “Periodic Updating of Final Safety Analysis Reports (FSARs)” (December 15, 1980).
As a result of lessons learned from the Millstone experience and other initiatives related to UFSARs,the NRC has determined that additional guidance regarding compliance with 10 CFR 50.71(e) is necessary. The staff recommended specific actions in SECY-97-036, “Millstone Lessons
Learned Report, Part 2: Policy Issues,” dated February 12, 1997. In a staff requirements memorandum dated May 20, 1997, the求职信格式
Commission directed the staff, in part, to issue guidance for complying with 10 CFR 50.71(e) so that UFSARs干煸鱿鱼丝
are updated to reflect changes to the design bas and to reflect the effects of other analys performed since original licensing that should have been included under 10 CFR 50.71(e). This regulatory guide provides the guidance requested by the May 20, 1997, staff requirements memorandum.
The information collections contained in this regulatory guide are covered by the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, which were approved by the Office of Management and Budget, approval number 3150-0011. The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
B. DISCUSSION
OBJECTIVE
The objectives of 10 CFR 50.71(e) are to ensure that licenes maintain the information in the UFSAR to reflect the current status of the facility and address new issues as they ari, so that the UFSAR can be ud as a reference document in safety analys.
DEVELOPMENT OF INDUSTRY GUIDELINE, NEI 98-03
On November 14, 1997, the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) provided a draft guidance document, NEI 98-03, “Draft Industry Update Guidelines for Final Safety Analysis Reports,” to the NRC staff for information. In parallel with industry’s efforts, the staff developed a propod generic letter, “Interim Guidance for Updated Final Safety Analysis Reports in Accordance with 10 CFR 50.71(e).” This propod generic letter and NEI’s draft guideline were provided to the Commission in SECY-98-087,2 dated April 20, 1998. In SECY 98-087, the staff recommended that the Commission approve issuance of the propod generic letter for public comment as interim guidance. The staff propod to continue to work with NEI to resolve differences between the positions in the propod generic letter and the draft industry guideline so that the industry guideline could be endord in a regulatory guide and thereby rve as permanent guidance for the content of UFSARs.
In a staff requirements memorandum dated June 30, 1998, the Commission disapproved issuance o
f the propod generic letter and directed the staff to attempt to resolve differences between the draft industry guideline and the propod generic letter so that the industry guideline could be endord.
Subquently, the NRC staff held public meetings with NEI to resolve the differences between the documents, which resulted in NEI submitting Revision 0 of NEI 98-03 to the NRC staff for endorment in November 1998. The NRC staff propod endorsing Revision 0 of NEI 98-03 in the draft version, DG-1083, of this Regulatory Guide 1.181. DG-1083 was issued for public comment in March 1999.
After the public comment period, the staff held a public meeting with NEI to discuss the public comments received, the NRC staff comments, and the clarification of Regulatory Position 5 of DG-1083. NEI then submitted Revision 1 of NEI 98-03 in June 1999 for NRC endorment in this regulatory guide. Revision 1 of NEI 98-03 incorporates the public comments, the NRC staff’s comments, and address the concerns of Regulatory Position 5 of DG-1083.

C. REGULATORY POSITION
1.NEI 98-03
Revision 1 of NEI 98-03, “Guidelines for Updating Final Safety Analysis Reports,”2 dated June 1999, provides methods that are acceptable to the NRC staff for complying with the provisions of 10 CFR 50.71(e).
2.OTHER DOCUMENTS REFERENCED IN NEI 98-03杭州必去景点排名
NEI 98-03 references other documents, but NRC’s endorment of NEI 98-03 should not be considered an endorment of the referenced documents.
3.USE OF EXAMPLES IN NEI 98-03
NEI 98-03 includes examples to supplement the guidance. The examples are illustrative only, and the NRC’s endorment of NEI 98-03 should not be considered a determination that the examples are applicable for all licenes. A licene should ensure that an example is applicable to its particular circumstances before implementing the guidance as described in an example.
4.LICENSEES COMMITTED TO REGULATORY GUIDE 1.70芳龄几何
This regulatory guide does not superde any prior commitments made by licenes with respect to their FSARs (and by extension, their UFSARs), such as Regulatory Guide 1.70 (any revision) or its predecessor guidance documents. Therefore, a licene that has made such a commitment to updated FSAR format and content must continue to meet this prior commitment, or the commitment should be modified in accordance with the licene’s commitment management process to allow full implementation of NEI 98-03.
灯笼的做法5.USE OF OTHER METHODS
Licenes may u methods other than tho propod in Revision 1 of NEI 98-03 to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.71(e). The NRC will determine the acceptability of other methods on a ca-by-ca basis.
D. IMPLEMENTATION
The purpo of this ction is to provide information to applicants and licenes regarding the NRC staff’s plans for using this regulatory guide.
Except in tho cas in which an applicant or licene propos or has previously established an acceptable alternative method for complying with specified portions of the NRC’s regulations, the methods described in this guide will be ud in the evaluation of licene compliance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.71(e).
CAUTION STATEMENT
Licenes are cautioned against possible deletion of information which may be important to risk-informed evaluation and decision making. Extent of the information which can be deleted without any adver impact will be visited during efforts related to risk-informing Part 50.
VALUE/IMPACT STATEMENT
A parate Value/Impact Statement was not prepared for this regulatory guide. The Value/Impact Statement that was prepared for and printed with the draft of this guide, DG-1083, in March 1999, is still applicable. That Value/Impact Statement concluded that the value to individual licenes, the industry, the NRC, and the public that results from complete and accurate UFSARs outweighs the costs to licenes and the NRC that are prently associated with using UFSARs that are incomplete and inaccurate. Copies of the Value/Impact Statement are available for inspection or cop
ying for a fee in the NRC’s Public Document Room at 2120 L Street NW., Washington, DC, under Draft Regulatory Guide DG-1083. The PDR may be reached by telephone at (202)634-3273 or fax at (202)634-3343.
