[Federal Register: August 23, 1999 (Volume 64, Number 162)] [Notices] [Page 45985] From the Federal Register Online via GPO Access [wais.access.gpo.gov] [DOCID:fr23au99-109] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION Laboratory Testing of Nuclear-Grade Activated Charcoal (ERRATA); Issue AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission. ACTION: Notice of issuance. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has issued the errata for a typographical error that was found in Generic Letter (GL) 99-02. GL 99-02 addresses the laboratory testing of nuclear-grade activated charcoal that is used in the safety-related air-cleaning units of engineered safety feature ventilation systems of nuclear power plants to reduce the potential onsite and offsite consequences of a radiological accident by adsorbing iodine. The typographical error makes the sentence in which it appears technically incorrect. This sentence appears in two places, namely, in Requested Actions 2 and 3, on page 7 of the generic letter. The affected sentence reads ``If the system has a face velocity greater than 10 percent of 0.203 m/s (40 ft/min), then the revised TS [technical specification] should specify the face velocity.'' This sentence should read ``If the system has a face velocity greater than 110 percent of 0.203 m/s (40 ft/min), then the revised TS should specify the face velocity.'' DATES: The errata was issued on August 23, 1999. ADDRESSEES: Not applicable. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John P. Segala, at 301-415-1858. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The errata is available in the NRC Public Document Room under accession number 9908060152. Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 17th day of August 1999. For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Scott F. Newberry, Deputy Director, Division of Reactor Program Management, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
