I. Introduction
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is issuing a revision
to an existing guide in the agency’s
‘‘Regulatory Guide’’ series. This series
was developed to describe and make
available to the public information such
as methods that are acceptable to the
NRC staff for implementing specific
parts of the agency’s regulations,
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.
Revision 1 of Regulatory Guide 6.5,
‘‘General Safety Standards for
Installations Using Nonmedical Sealed
Gamma-Ray Sources,’’ was issued with
a temporary identification as Draft
Regulatory Guide DG–6006. This guide
directs the reader to the type of
information acceptable to the NRC staff
to approve the initial transfer of devices
containing byproduct material to
persons generally licensed under Title
10, Section 31.5, ‘‘Certain Detecting,
Measuring, Gauging, or Controlling
Devices, and Certain Devices for
Producing Light or an Ionized
Atmosphere,’’ of the Code of Federal
Regulations (10 CFR 31.5) or equivalent
regulations of an Agreement State.
The requirements for transferring
gamma-ray sources to general licensees
appear in 10 CFR 32.51, ‘‘Byproduct
Material Contained in Devices for Use
Under § 31.5; Requirements for License
to Manufacturer, or Initially Transfer’’.
One method of complying with the
requirements of 10 CFR 32.51 appears in
NUREG–1556, Volume 3, ‘‘Consolidated
Guidance about Materials Licenses:
Applications for Sealed Source and
Device Evaluation and Registration.’’
This regulatory guide endorses the
description of the information to be
submitted in the application for the
initial transfer and installation of sealed
gamma-ray sources contained in the
current revision of Volume 3 of
NUREG–1556 as a method acceptable to
the NRC staff.
In January 2008, DG–6006 was
published with a public comment
period of 60 days from the issuance of
the guide. No comments were received
and the public comment period closed
on April 18, 2008. Electronic copies of
Regulatory Guide 6.5, Revision 1 are
available through the NRC’s public Web
site under ‘‘Regulatory Guides’’ at
https://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doccollections/.
In addition, regulatory guides are
available for inspection at the NRC’s
Public Document Room (PDR), which is
located at Room O–1F21, One White
Flint North, 11555 Rockville Pike,
Rockville, Maryland 20852–2738. The
PDR’s mailing address is USNRC PDR,
Washington, DC 20555–0001. The PDR
can also be reached by telephone at

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Introduction
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is issuing a revision
to an existing guide in the agency’s
‘‘Regulatory Guide’’ series. This series
was developed to describe and make
available to the public information such
as methods that are acceptable to the
NRC staff for implementing specific
parts of the agency’s regulations,
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.
Revision 2 of Regulatory Guide 10.5,
‘‘Applications for a Type A License of
Broad Scope,’’ was issued with a
temporary identification as Draft
Regulatory Guide DG–0015. This guide
directs the reader to the type of
information needed by the NRC staff to
evaluate an application for a Type A
license of broad scope for byproduct
material. Title 10, Part 33, ‘‘Specific
Domestic Licenses of Broad Scope for
Byproduct Material,’’ of the Code of
Federal Regulations (10 CFR Part 33)
regulates this type of license.
This regulatory guide endorses the
methods and procedures contained in
the current revision of NUREG–1556,
Volume 11, ‘‘Consolidated Guidance
about Materials Licenses: ProgramSpecific Guidance about Licenses of
Broad Scope,’’ as a process that the NRC
staff finds acceptable for meeting the
E:\FR\FM\11JYN1.SGM
11JYN1
39994
Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 134 / Friday, July 11, 2008 / Notices
regulatory requirements of 10 CFR Part
33.
Volume 11 of NUREG–1556 is not
intended to be used alone. Because
broad-scope licensees may be involved
in many different program areas (e.g.,
medicine, research and development,
manufacturing and distribution),
Volume 11 frequently refers the user to
other more program-specific guidance
documents in the NUREG–1556 series.
A single document containing all of the
guidance that might be required by a
broad-scope licensee or an applicant for
a broad-scope license would be
unwieldy and may become obsolete as
guidance in the individual program
areas is revised. Volume 11 of NUREG–
1556 takes a more risk-informed,
performance-based approach to the
information needed to support an
application for a specific license of
broad scope. Applicants should
consider the entire NUREG–1556 series
when preparing broad-scope license
applications. NRC staff will use
applicable portions of the complete
NUREG–1556 series when reviewing
applications.

Revision 2 of Regulatory Guide 6.1,
‘‘Leak Testing Radioactive
Brachytherapy Sources,’’ was issued
with a temporary identification as Draft
Regulatory Guide DG–6003. This guide
directs the reader to methods and
procedures acceptable to the staff of the
NRC for leak testing radioactive
brachytherapy sources. Possession and
use of brachytherapy sources is an
activity requiring a license pursuant to
Title 10, section 30.3, ‘‘Activities
Requiring License,’’ of the Code of
Federal Regulations (10 CFR 30.3). The
requirements in 10 CFR 35.67,
‘‘Requirements for Possession of Sealed
Sources and Brachytherapy Sources,’’
state in part, that the sources are to be
periodically leak tested and that the test
be capable of detecting the presence of
185 becquerel (Bq) (0.005 microcurie
(µCi)) of radioactive material in the
sample. The regulations also require
that the source be immediately
withdrawn from use if the test reveals
the presence of 185 Bq (0.005 µCi) or
more of removable contamination.
This regulatory guide endorses the
methods and procedures for leak testing
radioactive brachytherapy sources
contained in the current revisions of
NUREG–1556, Volume 3, ‘‘Consolidated
Guidance about Materials Licenses:
PO 00000
