Erm 'binned'....

The 2011 activities and accomplishments featured
in the section of this annual review entitled, “New
Reactor Licensing,” includes the significant progress
made this year in the AP1000 Design Center. The
staff completed its technical review of the AP1000
design certification amendment (DCA) and issued the
final safety evaluation report (FSER) in August 2011.
Furthermore, the NRO staff published a proposed rule
for the AP1000 DCA in the Federal Register for public
comment. The NRC received over 13,000 public
comments on the proposed rule; 62 of these comments
were unique. The staff “binned” the comments into
about 15 common categories, addressed them in a
timely manner, and prepared the final rule package for
the Commission’s review. The Commission approved
an amendment to the ABWR design certification to
address aircraft impacts. In addition, the NRO staff
completed the review of the Economic Simplified
Boiling Water Reactor (ESBWR) design review and
continued work on the U.S. Evolutionary Power
Reactor (U.S. EPR) and the U.S. Advanced Pressurized
Water Reactor (US-APWR) design reviews

@elainekirk I believe that means they had 15 trash cans in the office when they sorted those public comments

I have not seen anything on it yet.

In response to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s February 13, 2001, staff
requirements memorandum for COMJSM-00-0003, “Staff Readiness for New Nuclear Plant
Construction and the Pebble Bed Modular Reactor” and Staff Requirements – SECY-09-0064,
“Regulation of Fusion-Based Power Generation Devices,” the enclosed report provides the
status of new reactor licensing activities for the quarter beginning April 1, 2011, and ending
June 30, 2011. The report outlines detailed information on the status of new reactor licensing
reviews for design certifications, early site permits, and combined license applications for this
quarter. It also provides information on regulatory infrastructure, construction inspection,
advanced reactors, and international activities. pbadupws.nrc.gov
will try find more recent

Those RO tanks are new too.

@elainekirk they keep building tank farms but say they may run out of space this year

@elainekirk TEPCO asked to sea dump by March this year and was told no way.

@lillymunster oh my goodness they really are in cloud cuckoo land

@dean headfirst cannonball from the sounds of it.

@RonD sounds like he didn't get a very big dose. I bet he didn't realize his ability to swim would impact his annual dose. :-)
