SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
sroberts on DSK5SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
I. Introduction
The NRC is withdrawing RG 7.3
because its guidance has been
superseded and is no longer needed.
The RG was published in May 1975 to
provide guidance on meeting the
requirements in Title 10 of the Code of
Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 20.205,
‘‘Procedures for Picking Up, Receiving,
and Opening Packages.’’ Regulatory
Guide 7.3 provided guidance to
licensees on making arrangements for
receipt, pickup, and monitoring of
packages containing radioactive
material; and reporting when received
packages showed evidence of leakage or
excessive radiation levels.
Regulatory Guide 7.3 was issued after
a rulemaking by the Atomic Energy
Commission in 1974 that revised 10
CFR part 20, ‘‘Standards for Protection
Against Radiation.’’ This rulemaking
was in response to two incidents
resulting in excessive contamination
and radiation exposures from
improperly packaged radioactive
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 226001
material. Since these requirements were
new to the transportation community,
the Atomic Energy Commission
developed RG 7.3 to provide licensees
with a method acceptable to the NRC
staff for meeting the new requirements.
In the 37 years since RG 7.3 was issued,
there has been extensive experience by
the transportation community on
receiving and opening packages and the
regulations in 10 CFR 20.205 have been
replaced with new U.S. Department of
Transportation regulations and 10 CFR
20.1906, ‘‘Procedures for Receiving and
Opening Packages.’’ Regulatory Guide
7.3 was not kept current. The NRC is
withdrawing the RG because it is
outdated and the relevant information
contained in it has been updated and
incorporated into Revision 1 of RG 7.7,
‘‘Administrative Guide for Verifying
Compliance with Packaging
Requirements for Shipment and Receipt
of Radioactive material.’’ Revision 1 of
RG 7.7 was finalized in March 2012, a
notice of its issuance was published in
the Federal Register on March 28, 2012
(77 FR 18871).
II. Further Information
As explained above, the guidance
provided in this RG is no longer
necessary. Regulatory guides may be
withdrawn when their guidance no
longer provides useful information,
such as when the guidance is
superseded by technological
developments, congressional actions, or
other events.
Withdrawal of a RG means that the
NRC staff no longer approves, as a
generic matter, the guidance in the
withdrawn RG. Therefore, an applicant
or licensee who wishes to follow the
guidance bears the responsibility of
demonstrating in the appropriate
circumstance, that the guidance in the
withdrawn RG is applicable to the
applicant’s or licensee’s specific
situation. Current licensees who have
included RG 7.3 in their licensing basis
may continue to use it and withdrawal
of the RG does not affect their existing
licenses or agreements. Changes to
existing licenses must be accomplished
in accordance with applicable NRC
requirements.
It states in NUREG/CR–4775, ‘‘Guide
to Preparing Operating Procedures for
Shipping Packages,’’ issued December
1988, that licensees should reference RG
7.3 in their operating procedures for
shipping packages. Because RG 7.3 is
being withdrawn, the recommendation
in NUREG/CR–4775 to reference RG 7.3
should not be relied on in the future and
an applicant or licensee who wishes to
follow this portion of the guidance in
NURGE/CR–4775 bears the
PO 00000
Frm 00067
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
responsibility of demonstrating, in the
appropriate circumstance, that the
guidance in the withdrawn regulatory
guide is applicable to the applicant’s or
licensee’s specific situation. Current
licensees who have included RG 7.3 in
their licensing basis because of the
reference to it in NUREG/CR–4775 may
continue to use RG 7.3, and withdrawal
of the RG does not affect their existing
licenses or agreements.
Regulatory guides and publicly
available NRC documents are available
on line in the NRC Library at: https://
www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doccollections/. The documents can also be
viewed online for free or printed for a
fee in the NRC’s PDR at 11555 Rockville
