Integrated Scheduling for Implementation of Plant Modifications (Generic Letter 83-20)
UNITED STATES
NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
WASHINGTON, D. C. 20555
May 9, 1983
TO ALL OPERATING REACTOR LICENSEES AND HOLDERS OF CONSTRUCTION PERMITS
Gentlemen:
SUBJECT: INTEGRATED SCHEDULING FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF PLANT MODIFICATIONS
(GENERIC LETTER 83-20)
On May 3, 1983 the Commission issued Amendment No. 91 (Enclosure 1) to the
Duane Arnold Energy Center (DAEC) operating license. This amendment
incorporates a license condition which approves Iowa Electric Light and
Power Company's "Plan for the Integrated Scheduling of Plant Modifications
for the Duane Arnold Energy Center."
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission's statement of policy and planning
guidance for 1983 endorses the concept of establishing implementation
schedules for new and existing requirements which reflect the importance of
the safety requirement to the public health and safety and the licensee's
ability to complete the necessary engineering, evaluation and design.
Enclosure 1 represents the first step towards development of an industry
wide program to establish realistic schedules for implementation of safety
improvements, both utility initiated and NRC-required, at operating
reactors.
Enclosure 1 is provided for your information and possible use. Although this
enclosure represents an approach which is acceptable at present to the NRC,
other approaches may be acceptable and will be considered if you elect to
adopt such a plan.
Please contact your Project Manager if you have any questions on this
matter.
Sincerely,
Darrell G. Eisenhut, Director
Division of Licensing
Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation
