Up to approximately 20,000

cubic feet. Quantities, types
and combinations of radioactive contaminants will vary
depending on material, but
at no time will they exceed
importer’s possession limits.
The cumulative total quantity
for each type of contaminant
over the duration of the import license will not exceed 5
kilograms (kg) special nuclear material; 1.0 x 106 kg
natural/depleted uranium; 20
TBq transuranics (except
Pu); and 600 TBq of all
other radionuclides.
Contaminated materials are to
be inspected, sorted and
processed at applicant’s facilities in and licensed by the
State of Tennessee for recycle and beneficial reuse
and/or disposal of as radioactive waste (pending conformity with waste acceptance criteria) at a Clive,
Utah disposal facility licensed by the State of Utah.
Materials that meet domestic
license conditions for unrestricted release may be released. Nonconforming materials would be returned to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Introduction
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission
(NRC) is withdrawing Regulatory Guide
(RG) 1.176, ‘‘An Approach for PlantSpecific, Risk-Informed
Decisionmaking: Graded Quality
Assurance,’’ which was published in
August 1998, but has been superseded
by subsequent rulemaking.
In November 2004, the NRC
promulgated Title 10 of the Code of
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 214001
Country

Federal Regulations (10 CFR) section
50.69, ‘‘Risk-informed categorization
and treatment of structures, systems,
and components for nuclear power
reactors,’’ (69 FR 68008) to permit
power reactor licensees and license
applicants to implement an alternative
regulatory framework with respect to
‘‘special treatment,’’ where special
treatment refers to those requirements
that provides increased quality
assurance beyond normal industrial
practices that structures, systems, and
components (SSCs) perform their
design-basis functions. In support of 10
CFR 50.69, the staff issued RG 1.201,
‘‘Guidelines for Categorizing Structures,
Systems and Components in Nuclear
Power Plants According to Their Safety
Significance,’’ in January 2006 for trial
use. This new framework, consisting of
the rule along with RG 1.201, has made
the guidance in RG 1.176 obsolete.

approval is not required to reproduce
them.
II. Further Information
BILLING CODE 7590–01–P
The withdrawal of RG 1.176 does not,
in and of itself, alter any prior or
existing licensing commitments based
on its use. The current version of RG
1.176 represents a method that is no
longer acceptable to the staff. RGs may
be withdrawn when their guidance is
superseded by congressional action, the
methods or techniques described in the
RG no longer describe an acceptable
approach, or the RG does not provide
useful information.
RGs are available for inspection or
