RevCom: Project Justification Statement for Revising DOE-STD-1104-2016, Review and Approval of Nuclear Facility Safety Basis and Safety Design Basis Documents

The proposed project is to provide a limited change to DOE Standard (STD)-1104-2016, Review and Approval of Nuclear Facility Safety Basis and Safety Design Basis Documents. The focus of this limited change is to align the standard with the final rule change of 10 CFR 830, Nuclear Safety Requirements, published on October 19, 2020. 10 CFR Part 830 was revised to remove the requirement for DOE to review and approve the annual DSA update. STD-1104-2016 addresses the review of DSA Annual Updates in Section 7.1.2. To implement the Rule change, this Standard would need to be revised to remove and/or modify Section 7.1.2. The scope of the change will be limited so the change can be processed expeditiously to support new rule implementation.
