You can also find information about The NRC's Plain Writing Philosophy, Techniques, and Guidance, and monitor the development of The NRC's Plain Writing Action Plan, Reports, and News. In addition, to help us comply with the Act and evaluate our progress, we invite you to Contact Us with feedback on our Plain Writing Action Plan, any difficulty you may experience in understanding our documents or information on our public Web site, or the use of plain language in our public meetings.

Analysis of Cancer Risk in Populations Near Nuclear Facilities: Phase 1 Feasibility StudyTo help address the public's concerns about releases of radioactivity from NRC-licensed facilities, the NRC has asked the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) to perform a state-of-the-art study. This study will evaluate *cancer diagnosis rates* (in addition to *mortality risk*) for populations living near decommissioned, operating, and proposed facilities, including nuclear power plants that generate electricity, as well as facilities that create the nuclear fuel used in those plants. The result of this Phase 1 study will be used to inform the design of the cancer risk assessment that will be carried out in a future Phase 2 study.

We'll complete our testing of the site over the weekend and make a formal announcement on Monday to officially unveil the redesign. To ensure a seamless transition, this redesign will maintain the same or similar buttons and links, while reformatting or reorganizing the site's existing content to enhance usability. Where significant organizational changes are needed, such changes will be phased in over time, consistent with best practices in Web design. For a sneak peak of our redesign, see our Video Preview (WMV format | MOV format).

Fire Protection and Fire Research Knowledge Management DigestThrough the years, the NRC has assembled an extensive collection of regulations, guidance, and other publications related to the agency's fire protection activities. The Fire Protection and Fire Research Knowledge Management Digest (NUREG/BR-0465) assembles these resources in a convenient CD-ROM format (Supplement 1) for use by NRC inspectors, technical reviewers, licensees, and other interested stakeholders. This user-friendly database provides the information needed during the inspection and review processes, and is divided into regulatory and technical knowledge sections. The regulatory knowledge section provides vital information, such as the pertinent parts of Title 10, Part 50, of the *Code of Federal Regulations*(10 CFR Part 50), fire protection guidelines for nuclear power plants, inspection manual chapters and procedures, generic communications, regulatory issue summaries, and regulatory guides. The technical knowledge section contains technical reports prepared by or for the NRC, including fire test reports, fire protection studies, probabilistic risk assessments, and conference proceedings, all of which provide background and technical support for the NRC's fire protection requirements and guidelines. You may Contact Us to obtain a complete copy of this set. Alternatively, you may view or download the component files from our Related Information About Fire Protection.
