Regulatory Guide; Issuance and Availability

    The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has issued a new 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 Commission'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.
    Regulatory Guide 1.179, ``Standard Format and Content of License 
Termination Plans for Nuclear Power Reactors,'' has been developed to 
provide guidance on developing license termination plans for nuclear 
power reactor licensees who wish to terminate their licenses and 
release their sites.
