NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION


Public Workshop: Demonstrating Compliance With the Radiological 
Criteria for License Termination--Methods to Conduct a Final Status 
Survey and Dose Modeling

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).

ACTION: Notice of workshop.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The NRC will hold a public workshop in Rockville, Maryland to 
receive input from licensees and the public on working papers on 
``Methods to Conduct a Final Status Survey,'' and ``Dose Modeling.'' 
These working papers are being developed as part of a future Regulatory 
Guide. The Regulatory Guide is being written to describe an acceptable 
method to comply with the NRC's recent final rule on Radiological 
Criteria for License Termination (62 FR 39058; July 21, 1997). These 
working papers have received only limited NRC staff review or approval. 
The purpose of the workshop is to obtain comments, suggestions, and 
information from the public on the approach in the working papers so 
that a better Regulatory Guide can be developed. All interested 
licensees and members of the public are invited to attend this 
workshop.

DATES: The workshop will be held on February 18 and 19, 1998, beginning 
at 9 a.m. and ending at about 5 p.m. There is no pre-registration. 
Interested parties, unable to attend the workshop, are encouraged to 
provide written comments by March 13, 1998.

ADDRESSES: The public workshop will be held in the NRC's auditorium at 
Two White Flint North, 11545 Rockville Pike, Rockville, Maryland. 
Visitor parking around the NRC building is limited; however, the 
workshop site is located adjacent to the White Flint Station on the 
Metro Red Line. A transcript of this workshop will be available for 
inspection, and copying for a fee at the NRC Public Document Room, 2120 
L Street, NW., Lower Level, Washington, DC 20555, on or about March 2, 
1998.
