VALUE/ IMPACT STATEMENT A draft value/ impact statement was published with the draft of this guide when it was published for public comment (Task DG-1048, May 1997). No changes were necessary, so a separate value/ impact statement for Revision 31 of Regulatory Guide 1.84 has not been prepared. A copy of the draft value/im-pact statement is available for inspection or copying for a fee in the NRC's Public Document Room at 2120 L Street NW., Washington, DC, under Task DG-1(M8.
