The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing for public comment (81 FR 62935) draft regulatory guide (DG)– 1331, ‘‘Service Level I, II, III, and In Scope License Renewal Protective Coatings Applied to Nuclear Power Plants.’’ This DG is proposed Revision 3 of Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.54, ‘‘Service Level I, II, and III Protective Coatings Applied to Nuclear Power Plants.’’ The NRC proposes to revise the guide to update the latest American Society for Standards and Testing (ASTM) International standards approved for use in the prior revision of this guide. In addition, the NRC proposes to expand the scope of the regulatory guide to address aging management of internal coatings and linings on components within the scope of the NRC’s license renewal regulations.
