NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION


Draft Regulatory Guide; Issuance, Availability

    The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has issued for public comment a 
proposed guide in its Regulatory Guide Series. Regulatory Guides are 
developed to describe and make available to the public such information 
as methods acceptable to the NRC staff for implementing specific parts 
of the NRC's regulations, techniques used by the staff in evaluating 
specific problems or postulated accidents, and data needed by the staff 
in its review of applications for permits and licenses.
    The draft guide is temporarily identified by its task number, DG-
1099, which should be mentioned in all correspondence concerning this 
draft guide. Draft Regulatory Guide DG-1099, ``Anchoring Components and 
Structural Supports in Concrete,'' is being developed to provide 
guidance to licensees and applicants on methods acceptable to the NRC 
staff for complying with the NRC's regulations on the design, 
evaluation, and quality assurance of anchors (steel embedments) used 
for component and structural supports on concrete structures.
    This draft guide has not received complete staff approval and does 
not represent an official NRC staff position.
    Comments may be accompanied by relevant information or supporting 
data. Written comments may be submitted by mail to the Rules and 
Directives Branch, Office of Administration, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 
Commission, Washington, DC 20555; or they may be hand-delivered to the 
Rules and Directives Branch, ADM, at 11555 Rockville Pike, Rockville, 
MD. Copies of comments received may be examined at the NRC Public 
Document Room, 11555 Rockville Pike, Rockville, MD. Comments will be 
most helpful if received by October 25, 2002.
