NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

Draft Regulatory Guide; Issuance, Availability

This notice is reprinted to correct the title of Draft Regulatory Guide DG-7004. The original notice was published on February 25, 2004.

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has issued for public comment a proposed revision of a guide 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 guide is temporarily identified by its task number, DG- 7004, which should be mentioned in all correspondence concerning this draft guide. Draft Regulatory Guide DG-7004, ``Establishing Quality Assurance Programs for Packaging Used in Transport of Radioactive Material,'' is the proposed Revision 2 of Regulatory Guide 7.10. This revision is being developed to provide guidance on developing Quality Assurance Programs with respect to the transport of radioactive materials in Type B and fissile material packages.

This draft guide has not received complete staff approval and does not represent an official NRC staff position.
