Abstract

On July 15, 2024, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) solicited comments on two related draft Regulatory Guides (DG) namely DG-1290, Revision 1, "Design Basis Floods for Nuclear Power Plants," proposed Revision 3 of Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.59 of the same name and DG-1417, "Guidance for Assessment of Flooding Hazards due to Water Control Structure Failures and Incidents," proposed new RG 1.256. The public comment period was originally scheduled to close on August 14, 2024. The NRC has decided to extend the public comment period to allow more time for members of the public to develop and submit their comments.
