NUCLEAR REGULATORY 

COMMISSION 

Regulatory Guide Update Prioritization 

AGENCY: U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission. 

ACTION: Regulatory guide update 

prioritization. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC) is currently 

reviewing and updating numerous 

guides in the agency’s Regulatory Guide 

(RG) Series. This series has been 

developed to describe and make 

available to the public methods that are 

acceptable to the NRC staff for 

implementing specific parts of the 

NRC’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 license amendments, 

permits, and licenses. The purpose of 

the ongoing review and update of the 

NRC’s RGs is to ensure that the RGs 

contain complete, accurate, and current 

guidance for use by licensees and 

prospective applicants. The established 

regulatory guidance (as set forth in 

establishing new and revised RGs) 

provides a consistent approach for the 

staff to ensure that the regulatory 

requirements are met and thereby 

continue to protect the health and safety 

of the public and the environment. 

The NRC reviewed all of the 

approximately 480 RGs and draft RGs 

(DGs) to determine those that needed to 

be revised or developed. This resulted 

in categorizing the RGs and DGs into 


pwalker on PROD1PC71 with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 96 / Friday, May 18, 2007 / Notices 28085 

five groups. The first group contains 

approximately 30 RGs that needed to be 

revised or developed by March 2007 to 

support anticipated new reactor 

licensing activities later this year. The 

second group includes RGs that are 

planned to be revised or developed, and 

published by December 2008. The third 

group contains RGs that are planned to 

be revised or developed, and published 

by December 2009. The fourth group 

includes RGs that will be considered for 

withdrawal. The fifth group contains all 

remaining RGs that are not planned to 

be updated by December 2009. 

The lists of RGs for each of these five 

groups, including publication schedules 

and public comment periods, can be 

found at the NRC’s Electronic Reading 

Room on the agency’s public Web site 

at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doccollections/reg-guides/ and in the 

Agencywide Document Access and 

Management System (ADAMS) at 

ML071230154. The RG status 

information on the NRC’s Web site will 

be updated periodically. 

Discussion: Through the years, the 

NRC has established 10 broad divisions 

of RGs. RGs in all 10 divisions were 

considered for updating under this 

program. The RG divisions can be found 

at the NRC’s Electronic Reading Room 

on the agency’s public Web site at 

www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doccollections/reg-guides/ and are as 

follows: 

• Division 1, Power Reactors 

• Division 2, Research and Test 

Reactors 

• Division 3, Fuels and Materials 

Facilities 

• Division 4, Environmental and 

Siting 

• Division 5, Materials and Plant 

Protection 

• Division 6, Products 

• Division 7, Transportation 

• Division 8, Occupational Health 

• Division 9, Antitrust and Financial 

Review 

• Division 10, General 

Solicitation of Comments and Dates: 

The NRC is soliciting comments on the 

NRC’s proposed prioritization of the 

groups 2, 3, 4 and 5 RGs. Specifically, 

comments are solicited for the following 

questions. Each comment should 

include supporting basis or rationale to 

enable the staff to fully understand the 

point of view being provided. 

1. Which, if any, RGs identified as 

group 3 need to be developed or revised 

sooner, and thus, should be in group 2? 

2. Which, if any, RGs identified as 

group 2 should not be developed or 

revised until after some other action is 

taken, and thus, should be in group 3? 

3. Which, if any, RGs identified as 

groups 2, 3 and 5 are no longer useful 

or the guidelines are adequately 

addressed elsewhere and should be 

withdrawn (added to group 4)? (If the 

guidelines are addressed elsewhere, 

please state specifically where they are 

located.) 

4. Which, if any, RGs that are not 

identified as group 2 or 3 need to be 

developed or revised by December 

2009? (Please include specific reasons.) 

5. Which, if any, RGs identified in 

group 4 should not be considered for 

withdrawal? (Please provide specific 

examples which demonstrate the need 

to maintain the RG.) 

Comments are requested within 30 

days from the date of this Federal 

Register notice. The list of the RGs in 

each group and by division can be 

found at the NRC’s Electronic Reading 

Room on the agency’s public Web site 

at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doccollections/reg-guides/. The RG status 

information on the NRC’s Web site will 

be updated periodically. 

Comment Procedures: Comments 

should be accompanied by relevant 

information or supporting data. Please 

mention RG Prioritization in the subject 

line of your comments. Comments 

submitted in writing or in electronic 

form will be made available to the 

public in their entirety through the

Extension: 

Regulation S–AM; SEC File No. 270–548; 

OMB Control No. 3235–0609. 

Notice is hereby given that pursuant 

to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities

(‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments 

on the collection of information

Regulation S–AM: Limitations on 

Affiliate Marketing 

Regulation S–AM implements the 

requirements of Section 214 of the Fair 

and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 

2003 (Pub. L. 108–159) (‘‘FACT Act’’) as 

applied to brokers, dealers, and 

investment companies, as well as 

investment advisers and transfer agents 

that are registered with the Commission 

(collectively, ‘‘Covered Persons’’). As 

directed by Section 214 of the FACT 

Act, before a receiving affiliate may 

make marketing solicitations based on 

the communication of certain consumer 

financial information from a Covered 

Person, the Covered Person must 

provide a notice to each affected 

individual informing the individual of 

his or her right to prohibit such 

marketing. The regulation potentially 

applies to all of the approximately 

22,106 Covered Persons registered with 

the Commission, although only 

approximately 15,474 of them have one 

or more corporate affiliates, and the 

regulation would require only 

approximately 2,211 of them to provide
