NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION


Draft Regulatory Guide; Extension of Comment Period

    The Nuclear Regulatory Commission issued Draft Regulatory Guide DG-
1070, ``Sampling Plans Used for Dedicating Simple Metallic Commercial 
Grade Items for Use in Nuclear Power Plants,'' for public comment in 
September 1997 (see 62 FR 52166). This draft guide is being developed 
to describe methods acceptable to the NRC staff for complying with the 
NRC's regulations with regard to quality assurance requirements when 
using a sampling plan for dedicating simple metallic commercial grade 
items for unrestricted use in nuclear power plants.
    The Nuclear Energy Institute has requested a 60-day extension of 
the comment period. The NRC hereby grants NEI's request and extends the 
comment period from December 1, 1997, to January 30, 1998.
    Written comments may be submitted to the Rules and Directives 
Branch, Office of Administration, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, 
Washington, DC 20555. Copies of comments received may be examined at 
the NRC Public Document Room, 2120 L Street, NW., Washington, DC.
    Comments may also be submitted via the NRC's interactive rulemaking 
website through the NRC home page (http://www.nrc.gov). This site 
provides the availability to upload comments as files (any format), if 
your web browser supports that function. For information about the 
interactive rulemaking website, contact Ms. Carol Gallagher, (301) 415-
5905; e-mail [email protected].
    Regulatory guides are available for inspection at the Commission's 
Public Document Room, 2120 L Street NW., Washington, DC. Requests for 
single copies of draft or final guides should be made in writing to the
