2: No

3: No/No

4: I believe they'll be in effect.

You can access LERs on the NRC website, but you can only access the INPO OEs if you have an INPO approved Username and Password.

I believe (from my reading of the draft Reg Guide) that the work hour rules only apply to RPs that fulfill an eplan described function - mainly house shift techs. Contract techs may not need to meet the work rules.

Of course, Ops and security have their own task descriptions in the reg guide...

Based on the Overview put together by the DOE, www.ne.doe.gov/np2010/pdfs/esbwrOverview.pdf They're both just referred to as ESBWR.  Looking over the PowerPoint, one could say that it's a "wet" containment.

Contract RP personnel are not "covered" employees for the WHL of 10CFR26. They do however fall under the NFR (Nuclear Fatigue Rule). These changes are mandated to be in effect 30 September 2009.
