techniques that the staff uses in
evaluating specific problems or
postulated accidents, and data that the
staff needs in its review of applications
for permits and licenses.
The draft regulatory guide entitled
‘‘Guidance to Operators at the Controls
and to Senior Operators in the Control
Room of a Nuclear Power Unit’’ is
temporarily identified by its task

This guide describes staffing practices
and methods generally considered by
the NRC to be satisfactory for complying
with the Commission’s regulations that
require the presence of an operator at
the controls of a nuclear power unit and
a senior operator in the control room.
These practices and methods are the
result of NRC review of operating
experience and they reflect the latest
methods and approaches acceptable to
the NRC staff. If future information
results in alternative methods, the NRC
staff will review such methods to
determine their acceptability.
II. Further Information
The NRC staff is soliciting comments
on DG–1194. Comments may be
accompanied by relevant information or
supporting data, and should mention
