[7590-01-P]NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSIONRegulatory Guide; Issuance, AvailabilityThe Nuclear Regulatory Commission has issued a revision of a guide in its RegulatoryGuide 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 NRC'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.Revision 1 of Regulatory Guide 1.78, "Evaluating the Habitability of a Nuclear PowerPlant Control Room During a Postulated Hazardous Chemical Release," describes guidance acceptable to the NRC staff for assessing the habitability of the control room during and after a postulated external release of hazardous chemicals. This guide also provides guidance for the protection of control room operators against an accidental release of hazardous chemicals, including chlorine.With the publication of Regulatory Guide 1.78, Regulatory Guide 1.95, "Protection ofNuclear Power Plant Control Room Operators Against an Accidental Chlorine Release," is being withdrawn because the guidance in Regulatory Guide 1.95 has been updated and incorporated into Revision 1 of Regulatory Guide 1.78.Comments and suggestions in connection with items for inclusion in guides currentlybeing developed or improvements in all published guides are encouraged at any time. Written comments may be submitted to the Rules and Directives Branch, Division of Administrative Services, Office of Administration, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC
