SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Introduction

    The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing a new guide in 
the agency's ``Regulatory Guide'' series. This series was developed to

specific problems or postulated accidents, and data that the staff 
needs in its review of applications for permits and licenses.
    Regulatory Guide 1.215, Revision 0, ``Guidance for ITAAC Closure 
Under 10 CFR Part 52,'' was issued with a temporary identification as 
Draft Regulatory Guide, DG-1204. This guide describes a method that the 
staff of the NRC considers acceptable for use in satisfying the 
requirements for documenting the completion of inspections, tests, 
analyses, and acceptance criteria (ITAAC). In particular, this guide 
endorses the methodologies described in the industry guidance document 
Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) 08-01, ``Industry Guideline for the 
ITAAC Closure Process Under 10 CFR Part 52,'' Revision 3, issued 
January 2009, for the implementation of Title 10, Section 52.99, 
``Inspection during construction,'' of the Code of Federal Regulations 
(10 CFR 52.99).
