NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
Draft Regulatory Guide; Issuance, Availability
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has issued for public comment drafts of two new guides in its Regulatory Guide Series. Regulatory Guides are developed to describe and make available to the public such information as methods acceptable to the NRC staff for implementing specific parts of the NRC's regulations, techniques used by the staff in evaluating specific problems or postulated accidents, and data needed by the staff in its review of applications for permits and licenses.
The draft guides are temporarily identified by their task numbers, DG-1114 and DG-1115, which should be mentioned in all correspondence concerning these draft guides. Draft Regulatory Guide DG-1114, "Control Room Habitability at Light-Water Nuclear Power Reactors," is being developed to provide guidance and criteria acceptable to the NRC staff for implementing the NRC's regulations regarding control room habitability.
Draft Regulatory Guide DG-1115, "Demonstrating Control Room Envelope Integrity at Nuclear Power Reactors," is being developed to provide guidance acceptable to the NRC staff for performing periodic verification of inleakage into the control room. These inleakage values are used to assure that the control room will be habitable during normal and accident conditions.
These draft guides have not received complete staff approval and do not represent official NRC staff positions.
Comments may be accompanied by relevant information or supporting data. Written comments may be submitted by mail to the Rules and Directives Branch, Office of Administration, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555; or they may be hand-delivered to the Rules and Directives Branch, ADM, at 11555 Rockville Pike, Rockville, MD.
