As a result of discussions with applicants for con- struction permits and operating licenses following the issuance of this guide in August 1974, the NRC staff has recognized the existence of an acceptable alter- native to the methods described in ANSI N45.2.9- 1974 for protecting quality assurance records from the hazards of fire. In December 1975, the NRC staff published Revision I to this guide, which identified and incorporated this alternative. Comments were in- vited within 60 days of publication of Revision 1 for use in conjunction with early revision of the guide. After consideration of all comments, no substantive changes have been made in the regulatory position. It should be noted that NFPA No. 232-1970, "Standard for the Protection of Records," which was referenced in regulatory position C.2 of Revision 1, was reconfirmed by the National Fire Protection As- sociation at its 1975 fall meeting and is now designated NFPA No. 232-1975. No substantive changes exist between these documents. Regulatory position C.2 has been revised to reference NFPA No. 232-1975. C.
