NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
Draft Regulatory Guide; Issuance, Availability
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has issued for public comment a
draft of a guide planned for its Regulatory Guide Series. This series
has been developed to describe and make available to the public such
information as methods acceptable to the NRC staff for implementing
specific parts of the Commission'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 guide, temporarily identified by its task number, DG-1070
(which should be mentioned in all correspondence concerning this draft
guide), is titled ``Sampling Plans Used for Dedicating Simple Metallic
Commercial Grade Items for Use in Nuclear Power Plants.'' The guide is
intended for Division 1, ``Power Reactors.'' This draft guide is being
developed to describe methods acceptable to the NRC staff for complying
with the NRC's regulations with regard to quality assurance
requirements when using a sampling plan for dedicating simple metallic
commercial grade items for unrestricted use in nuclear power plants.
The draft guide has not received complete staff review and does not
represent an official NRC staff position.
Public comments are being solicited on Draft Regulatory Guide DG-
1070. Comments may be accompanied by additional relevant information or
supporting data. Written comments may be submitted to the Rules and
Directives Branch, Office of Administration, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission, Washington, DC 20555. Copies of comments received may be
examined at the NRC Public Document Room, 2120 L Street NW.,
Washington, DC. Comments will be most helpful if received by December
1, 1997.

guides currently being developed or improvements in all published
guides are encouraged at any time.
