NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
 

NUREG: Issuance, Availability

    The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has issued a draft report NUREG/
CR-6270 entitled ``Estimating Boiling Water Reactor Decommissioning 
Costs.'' This draft report, prepared for the NRC by Battelle Pacific 
Northwest Laboratory (PNL), is now available for review and comment.
    The draft report discusses the software used to calculate the 
decommissioning cost estimates included in the NUREG/CR-6174 entitled 
``Revised Analyses of Decommissioning for the Reference Boiling Water 
Reactor Power Station,'' recently released for comment.
    NUREG/CR-6270 has been prepared in the form of a user's manual for 
use on a personal computer. This software was developed to assist in 
evaluating a licensee's submittal of its estimated cost to decommission 
a BWR. Comments are solicited on the draft report, particularly with 
regard to the usefulness and appropriateness of the approaches 
described.
    Comments and suggestions on the draft NUREG/CR-6270 should be sent 
to the Rules Review and Directives Branch, Division of Freedom of 
Information and Publications Services, Office of Administration, U.S. 
Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555.
    Comments may also be submitted electronically, in either ASCII text 
or Wordperfect format (version 5.1 or later), by calling the NRC 
Electronic Bulletin Board on FedWorld. The bulletin board may be 
accessed using a personal computer, a modem, and one of the commonly 
available communications software packages, or directly via Internet.
    If using a personal computer and modem, the NRC subsystem on 
FedWorld can be accessed directly by dialing the toll free number: 1-
800-303-9672. Communication software parameters should be set as 
follows: parity to none, data bits to 8, and stop bits to 1 (N,8,1). 
Using ANSI terminal emulation, the NRC NUREG and Regulate Guide 
Comments subsystem can then be accessed by selecting the ``Subsystems/
Databases'' option from the ``NRC Main Menu.'' For further information 
about options available for NRC at FedWorld consult the ``Help/
Information Center'' from the ``NRC Main Menu.'' Users will find the 
``FedWorld Online User's Guides'' particularly helpful. Many NRC 
subsystems and databases also have a ``Help/Information Center'' option 
that is tailored to the particular subsystem.
    The NRC subsystem on FedWorld can also be accessed by a direct dial 
phone number for the main FedWorld BBS: 703-321-8020; Telnet via 
Internet: fedworld.gov (192.239/92.3); File Transfer Protocol (FTP) via 
Internet: ftp.fedworld.gov (192.239/92.205); and World Wide Web using: 
http://www.fedworld.gov (this is the Uniform Resource Locator (URL)).
    If using a method other than the toll free number to contact 
FedWorld, then the NRC sybsystem will be accessed from the main 
FedWorld menu by selecting the ``U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission'' 
option from FedWorld's ``Sybsystems/Databases'' menu or by entering the 
command ``/go nrc'' at a FedWorld command line. If you access NRC from 
FedWorld's ``Subsystems/Databases'' menu, then you may return to 
FedWorld by selecting the ``Return to FedWorld'' option from the ``NRC 
Main Menu.'' However, if you access NRC at FedWorld by using NRC's 
toll-free number, then you will have full access to all NRC systems, 
but you will not have access to the main FedWorld system. For more 
information on NRC bulletin boards call Mr. Arthur Davis, Systems 
Integration and Development Branch, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, 
Washington, DC 20555, telephone (301) 415-5780; e-mail AXD3nrc.gov.
    Copies of the comments received may be examined at the NRC Public 
Document Room at 2120 L Street, NW. (Lower Level), Washington, DC. 
Comments and suggestions will be most helpful if they are received by 
February 13, 1995.

Printing Office, P.O. Box 37082, Washington, DC 20013-7082, telephone
