COMMISSION 

Interim Regulatory Guide: Issuance, 

Availability 

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC) has issued an 

interim revision to an existing guide in 

the agency’s Regulatory Guide Series. 

This series has been developed to 

describe and make available to the 

public such information 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. 

The revised guide, entitled ‘‘Quality 

Assurance for Radiological Monitoring 

Programs (Inception Through Normal 

Operations to License Termination)—

Effluent Streams and the Environment,’’

is identified as Interim Revision 2 of 

Regulatory Guide 4.15. Like its 

predecessor, this interim revision 

describes a method that the NRC staff 

considers acceptable for use in 

designing and implementing programs 

to ensure the quality of the results of 

measurements of radioactive materials 

in the effluents from, and environment 

outside of, facilities that process, use, or 

store radioactive materials during all 

phases of the facility’s life cycle. Quality 

assurance (QA) is a fundamental 

expectation of Title 10, ‘‘Energy,’’ of the 

Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 

for items and activities that are relied on 

to protect the health and safety of the 

public and the environment. 

This interim guide serves as a final 

regulatory guide for, and may be used 

by applicants and licensees of nuclear 

power reactors. It also presents draft 

NRC staff positions on a method for 

designing and implementing QA 

programs for use by non-nuclear power 

reactor applicants and licensees subject 

to the agency’s QA requirements. The 

NRC staff seeks public comments on 

this regulatory guide with respect to its 

application to such licensees. The NRC 

staff will issue this guide in final form 

after resolving any comments received 

during the public comment period. 

Interim Revision 2 of Regulatory 

Guide 4.15 specifically applies to 

facilities for which NRC regulations 

require routine monitoring of 

radioactive effluents to the 

environment, and particularly those 

facilities licensed under the following 

regulations: 

• 10 CFR Part 50, ‘‘Domestic 

Licensing of Production and Utilization 

Facilities’’

• 10 CFR Part 52, ‘‘Licenses, 

Certifications, and Approvals for 

Nuclear Power Plants’’

• 10 CFR Part 61, ‘‘Licensing 

Requirements for Land Disposal of 

Radioactive Waste’’

• 10 CFR Part 72, ‘‘Licensing 

Requirements for the Independent 

Storage of Spent Nuclear Fuel, HighLevel Radioactive Waste, and ReactorRelated Greater Than Class C Waste’’

• 10 CFR Part 76, ‘‘Certification of 

Gaseous Diffusion Plants’’

The guidance may also apply to other 

NRC-licensed facilities, for which the 

agency may impose specific license 

conditions for effluent or environmental 

monitoring, as deemed necessary to 

ensure the health and safety of the 

public and the environment, including 

those licensed under the following 

regulations: 

• 10 CFR Part 30, ‘‘Rules of General 

Applicability to Domestic Licensing of 

Byproduct Material’’

• 10 CFR Part 40, ‘‘Domestic 

Licensing of Source Material’’

• 10 CFR Part 70, ‘‘Domestic 

Licensing of Special Nuclear Material’’
