  • 2025-02036 — Draft Regulatory Guide: Acceptability of ASME Code, Section III, Division 5, “High Temperature Reactors”
    Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:90 FR 8782
    Reading Time:about 4 minutes

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is reopening the public comment period for the draft Regulatory Guide DG-1436, which deals with the acceptability of certain engineering codes for high temperature reactors. Originally solicited on December 13, 2024, the comment period ended on January 27, 2025, but has now been extended to February 26, 2025, to allow additional time for public input. The NRC encourages electronic submissions through their website, and emphasizes that personal information should not be included in comments if one wishes to keep it private. Suggestions for improving regulatory guides can also be submitted through their public website.

    Simple Explanation

    The Nuclear Regulatory Commission wants to hear more ideas from people about the rules for special high-temperature reactors. They had asked for ideas before but are giving more time until February 26, 2025, so more people can share what they think.

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has released a draft Regulatory Guide for public comment regarding high-temperature reactors. This guide, identified as DG-1436, aims to ensure the safety and integrity of components that function in high-temperature environments by endorsing the latest ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code with certain conditions. Public comments on this guide are being accepted until January 27, 2025, with electronic submissions encouraged. The NRC provides instructions on how to access relevant documents and submit comments on their website.

    Simple Explanation

    The NRC made a guide to help make sure big machines in nuclear reactors can handle super hot temperatures safely, and they're asking people to tell them what they think about it until January 27, 2025.
