NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
Regulatory Guide; Issuance, Availability
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has issued a revision of a
guide in its Regulatory Guide Series. This series has been 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 its review of
applications for permits and licenses, and data needed by the NRC staff
in its review of applications for permits and licenses.
Revision 2 of Regulatory Guide 1.132, ``Site Investigations for
Foundations of Nuclear Power Plants,'' describes field investigations
for determining the geological, engineering, and hydrogeological
characteristics of a prospective plant site. It also provides guidance
to licensees and applicants on developing geologic information on
stratigraphy, lithology, and structure of the site.
Comments and suggestions in connection with items for inclusion in
