The i

Commission's Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research is in the process of publishing this proposed guide.

A preliminary version of the draft guide was included as Enclosure 8 to SECY-93-270, " Proposed Amendments to 10 CFR Part 73 to Frotect Against Malevolent Use of Vehicles at Nuclear Power Plants," September 29, 1993.
