SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Introduction

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or Commission) is
issuing a revised guide in the agency's ``Regulatory Guide'' series.
This series was developed to describe and make available to the public
information such as methods that are acceptable to the NRC staff for
implementing specific parts of the agency'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.
    Regulatory Guide 1.205, Revision 1, ``Risk-Informed, Performance-
Based Fire Protection for Existing Light-Water Nuclear Power Plants,''
was issued with a temporary identification as Draft Regulatory Guide,
DG-1218. Regulatory Guide 1.205, Revision 1, incorporates the lessons-
learned from ongoing review of the National Fire Protection Association
Standard 805 pilot applications and endorses the recently released
Revision 2 of Nuclear Energy Institute document NEI 04-02, ``Guidance
for Implementing a Risk-Informed, Performance-Based Fire Protection
Program Under Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part
50.48(c).'' The technical information in the draft RG was developed by
the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation staff in conjunction with
agency stakeholders.

II. Further Information

    In March 2009, DG-1218 was published with a public comment
period of 60 days from the issuance of the guide. The staff's responses
to the public comments received are located in the NRC's Agencywide
Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) under Accession Number
ML092460330. The summary regulatory analysis is located in ADAMS under
Accession Number ML092730342. Electronic copies of RG 1.205 are
available through the NRC's public Web site under ``Regulatory Guides''
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) 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) 397-4205, by fax at (301) 415-3548, and by e-
mail to pdr.resource@nrc.gov.
    Regulatory guides are not copyrighted, and Commission approval is
not required to reproduce them.

    Notice:
    In accordance with Section 309(a) of the Clean Air Act, EPA is
required to make its comments on EISs issued by other Federal agencies

EPA has been including its comment letters on EISs on its Web site at:

EIS comment letters on the Web site satisfies the Section 309(a)
requirement to make EPA's comments on EISs available to the public.

of this notice of availability of EPA comments in the Federal Register.
