SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) 
has issued for public comment a draft guide in the agency's Regulatory 
Guide series. This series has been developed to describe and make 
available to the public such information as methods that are acceptable 
to the NRC staff for implementing specific parts of the NRC's 
regulations, techniques that the staff uses in evaluating specific 
problems or postulated accidents, and data that the staff needs in its 
review of applications for permits and licenses.
    The interim revised Regulatory Guide (RG) 4.15, entitled ``Quality 
Assurance for Radiological Monitoring Programs (Inception Through 
Normal Operations to License Termination)--Effluent Streams and the 
Environment,'' was issued with a temporary identification as Draft 
Regulatory Guide DG-4010 for public comments on November 2, 2006. 
Public comments were received, and the NRC staff appropriately revised 
the Draft Regulatory Guide DG-4010. RG 4.15, Revision 2, was issued in 
the Federal Register, 72 FR 15173 on March 30, 2007, for interim use 
and for public comments to a wider audience. The

second public comment period closed on May 29, 2007, and no comments 
have been received. RG 4.15, Revision 2, is no longer considered ``for 
trial use'' but is considered ``for final use'' without change to the 
information in the guide.
    Electronic copies of Regulatory Guide 4.15 are available through 
the NRC's public Web site under Regulatory Guides in the Regulatory 
Guides document collection of the NRC's Electronic Reading Room at  
http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/.
    In addition, regulatory guides are available for inspection at the 
NRC's Public Document Room (PDR), which is located at 11555 Rockville 
Pike, Rockville, Maryland. The PDR's mailing address is USNRC PDR, 
Washington, DC 20555-0001. The PDR can also be reached by telephone at 
(301) 415-4737 or (800) 397-4209, by fax at (301) 415-3548, and by e-

    Regulatory guides are not copyrighted, and NRC approval is not 
required to reproduce them. (5 U.S.C. 552(a))
