pursuant to 10 CFR 70.17, authorized by 

law and will not endanger life or 

property or the common defense and 

security and is otherwise in the public 

interest. On this basis of this EA, NRC 

concludes that there are no significant 

environmental impacts and the issuance 

of a modified Order does not warrant 

the preparation of an Environmental 

Impact Statement. Accordingly, the NRC 

has determined that a Finding of No 

Significant Impact is appropriate. 

Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.33(e), a final 

determination to prepare an 

environmental impact statement or a 

final FONSI for the proposed action will 

not be made until the last day of the 

public comment period has expired on 

November 6, 2009.

[NRC–2009–0443] 

Withdrawal of Regulatory Guide 7.1 

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission. 

ACTION: Withdrawal of Regulatory Guide 

7.1. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Thomas J. Herrity, Office of Nuclear 

Regulatory Research, U.S. Nuclear 

Regulatory Commission, Washington,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction 

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC) is withdrawing 

Regulatory Guide 7.1 (RG 7.1), 

‘‘Administrative Guide for Packaging 

and Transporting Radioactive Material.’’ 

This guide was published in June 1974 

and provided guidance on which 

packaging and labeling regulations of 

the Department of Transportation (DOT) 

apply in a given case and what must be 

done to comply with those regulations. 

The NRC is withdrawing this regulatory 

guide because it is outdated. 

Although DOT revised their 

regulations on packaging and shipment 

of radioactive material several times 

after issuance of RG 7.1, neither this RG 

nor the American National Standards 

Institute (ANSI) standard referenced in 

the RG have been revised. In addition, 

ANSI Subcommittee N14.10 withdrew 

ANSI Standard ANSI N14.10.1, 

‘‘Administrative Guide for Packaging 

and Transporting Radioactive 

Materials,’’ dated September 14, 1973. 

DOT issued generic guidance, 

‘‘Radioactive Material Regulations 

Review,’’ on their hazardous materials 

regulations in December 2008, which 

includes radioactive material 

determination and appropriate 

packaging, labeling and placarding for a 

given material. Because DOT issued 

guidance on meeting their hazardous 

materials regulations, this RG should be 

withdrawn instead of updated. 

II. Further Information 

The withdrawal of RG 7.1 does not 

alter any prior or existing licensing 

commitments based on its use. The 

guidance provided in this RG is neither 

necessary nor current. RGs may be 

withdrawn when their guidance is 

superseded by congressional action or 

no longer provides useful information. 

RGs are available for inspection or 

downloading through the NRC’s public 

Web site under ‘‘Regulatory Guides’’ in 

the NRC’s Electronic Reading Room at 

http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doccollections. Regulatory guides are not 

copyrighted and Commission approval 

is not required to reproduce these 

documents. RGs are also available for 

inspection at the NRC’s Public 

Document Room (PDR), Room O–1 F21, 

One White Flint North, 11555 Rockville 

Pike, Rockville, MD 20852–2738.

staff by telephone at 301–415–4737 or

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE 

COMMISSION 

[File No. 500–1] 

SpongeTech Delivery Systems, Inc.; 

Order of Suspension of Trading 

October 5, 2009. 

It appears to the Securities and 

Exchange Commission that there is a 

lack of current and accurate information 

concerning the securities of SpongeTech 

Delivery Systems, Inc. (‘‘SpongeTech’’) 

because questions have arisen regarding 

the accuracy of assertions in press 

releases to investors and in periodic 

reports filed with the Commission 

concerning, among other things: (1) The 

amount of sales and customer orders 

received by the company; (2) the 

company’s investment agreements; and 

(3) the company’s revenues as reported 

in its financial statements. In addition, 

SpongeTech has not filed any periodic 

reports with the Commission since the 

period ended February 28, 2009. 

The Commission is of the opinion that 

the public interest and the protection of 

investors require a suspension of trading 

in the securities of the above-listed 

company. 

Therefore, it is ordered, pursuant to 

Section 12(k) of the Securities Exchange 

Act of 1934, that trading in the 

securities of the above-listed company is 

suspended for the period from 9:30 a.m. 

EDT, on October 5, 2009 through 11:59 

p.m. EDT, on October 16, 2009. 

By the Commission.

Secretary.
