Regulatory Research, telephone: 301–
415–2493, email: Harriet.Karagiannis@
nrc.gov. Both are staff members of the
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission,
Washington, DC 20555–0001.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NRC
staff issued RG 5.18 in January 1974 to
provide guidance on meeting the
material control and accounting (MC&A)
requirements in part 70 of title 10 the
Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR),
‘‘Domestic Licensing of Special Nuclear
Material.’’ Part 70 then contained MC&A
requirements, including those in 10 CFR
70.51, ‘‘Material Balance, Inventory, and
Records Requirements’’ that were
established in 1973. Specifically, 10
CFR 70.51(a)(5) defined the term ‘‘Limit
of error,’’ and 10 CFR 70.51(e) required
licensees to calculate statistical limits of
error for any material unaccounted for
as part of their MC&A procedures. Part
70 regulations no longer contain any
MC&A requirements, and licensees are
no longer required to calculate
statistical limits of error for any material
unaccounted for. In 1985, 10 CFR part
74, ‘‘Material Control and Accounting of
Special Nuclear Material,’’ was
established, and in 2002, the 10 CFR
70.51 requirements were transferred to
10 CFR part 74 which now includes the
current MC&A requirements. As part of
the 2002 MC&A revisions, the term
‘‘limit of error’’ was replaced by the
term ‘‘standard error,’’ and licensees are
now required to calculate the
‘‘inventory difference’’ (as defined in 10
CFR 74.4) rather than determining the
amounts of material that are
‘‘unaccounted for.’’ The ‘‘standard
error’’ is used in evaluating the
significance of an inventory difference
(ID).
Guidance for calculating the
‘‘standard error’’ of the ID is found in
NUREG–1065, ‘‘Acceptable Standard
Format and Content for the
Fundamental Nuclear Material Control
(FNMC) Plan Required for LowEnriched Uranium Facilities’’ (ADAMS
Accession No. ML031340288), NUREG–
1280, ‘‘Standard Format and Content
Acceptance Criteria for the Material
Control and Accounting (MC&A) Reform
Amendment’’ (ADAMS Accession No.
ML13253A308), and NUREG/CR–5734,
‘‘Recommendations to the NRC on
Acceptable Standard Format and
Content for the Fundamental Nuclear
Material Control (FNMC) Plan Required
for Low-Enriched Uranium Enrichment
Facilities’’ (ADAMS Accession No.
ML15120A354).
In addition, RG 5.18 endorsed the
American National Standards Institute
Standard N15.16–1974, ‘‘Limit of Error
Concepts and Principles of Calculation
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:46 Feb 27, 2017
Jkt 241001
in Nuclear Materials Control,’’ to
provide guidance on the ‘‘limit of error’’
concept. However, this standard has
been withdrawn from active status with
no replacement.
The NRC is withdrawing RG 5.18
because it is no longer needed.
Withdrawal of an RG means that the
guide no longer provides useful
information or has been superseded by
other guidance, technological
innovations, congressional actions, or
other events. The withdrawal of RG 5.18
does not alter any prior or existing NRC
licensing approval or the acceptability
of licensee commitments to RG 5.18.
Although RG 5.18 is withdrawn, current
licensees may continue to use it, and
withdrawal does not affect any existing
licenses or agreements. However, 5.18
should not be used in future requests or
applications for NRC licensing actions.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 21st day
of February 2017.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Acting Chief, Regulatory Guidance and
Generic Issues Branch, Division of
Engineering, Office of Nuclear Regulatory
Research.
