comment submissions into ADAMS. 

The NRC does not routinely edit 

comment submissions to remove 

identifying or contact information. 

If you are requesting or aggregating 

comments from other persons for 

submission to the NRC, then you should 

inform those persons not to include 

identifying or contact information that 

they do not want to be publicly 

disclosed in their comment submission. 

Your request should state that the NRC 

does not routinely edit comment 

submissions to remove such information 

before making the comment 

submissions available to the public or 

entering the comment submissions into 

ADAMS. 

II. Additional Information 

The NRC is issuing for public 

comment a DG in the NRC’s ‘‘Regulatory 

Guide’’ series. This series was 

developed to describe methods that are 

acceptable to the NRC staff for 

implementing specific parts of the 

agency’s regulations, to explain 

techniques that the staff uses in 

evaluating specific issues or postulated 

events, and to describe information that 

the staff needs in its review of 

applications for permits and licenses. 

This DG, identified by its task 

number, DG–4030, titled, ‘‘Use of 

ARCON Methodology for Calculation of 

Accident-Related Offsite Atmospheric 

Dispersion Factors,’’ is a proposed new 

RG 4.28 (ADAMS Accession No. 

ML21165A005). This proposed new RG 

4.28 provides guidance to industry for 

complying with and implementing the 

NRC requirements by endorsing the use 

of the ARCON computer code to 

calculate offsite dispersion values out to 

distances of 1,200 m (3,937 ft) that 

could include the exclusion area 

boundary and/or low-population zone. 

RG 1.194 (ADAMS Accession No. 

ML031530505) endorses the use of the 

ARCON96 computer code for 

calculating accident-related onsite 

(control room and technical support 

center) atmospheric dispersion values 

which are direct inputs to habitability 

dose assessments. In addition, RG 1.145, 

‘‘Atmospheric Dispersion Models for 

Potential Accident Consequence 

Assessments at Nuclear Power Plants’’ 

(ADAMS Accession No. ML12216A014), 

provides the present methodology 

incorporated into the PAVAN computer 

code, as reviewed by the staff using 

NUREG–0800 at https://www.nrc.gov/ 

reading-rm/doc-collections/nuregs/staff/ 

sr0800/index.html (ADAMS Accession 

No. ML070810350), SRP Section 2.3.4 

for calculating accident-related related, 

offsite atmospheric dispersion values. 

RG 4.28 will provide new guidance 

for applicants and licensees subject to 

Part 50 of title 10 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations (10 CFR), ‘‘Domestic 

Licensing of Production and Utilization 

Facilities’’; 10 CFR part 52, ‘‘Licenses, 

Certifications, and Approvals for 

Nuclear Power Plants’’; and 10 CFR part 

100, ‘‘Reactor site criteria.’’ 

The staff is also issuing for public 

comment a draft regulatory analysis 

(ADAMS Accession No. ML21165A007). 

The staff develops a regulatory analysis 

to assess the value of issuing or revising 

a regulatory guide as well as alternative 

courses of action. 

III. Backfitting, Forward Fitting, and 

Issue Finality 

Issuance of DG–4030, if finalized, 

would not constitute backfitting as that 

term is defined in 10 CFR 50.109, 

‘‘Backfitting’’ and as described in NRC 

Management Directive (MD) 8.4, 

‘‘Management of Backfitting, Forward 

Fitting, Issue Finality, and Information 

Requests’’; constitute forward fitting as 

that term is defined and described in 

MD 8.4; or affect issue finality of any 

approval issued under 10 CFR part 52. 

As explained in DG–4030, applicants 

and licensees are not required to comply 

with the positions set forth in DG–4030.
