| Abstract: | The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has developed a program for revising the regulations governing the medical use of byproduct material. The decision to revise this regulation resulted from the NRC Strategic Assessment and Rebaselining Initiative (SA), a process involving identification of the direction-setting issues and associated options for the future of NRC activities. This notice describes the NRC's program for revising the medical use regulation; notifies the public of the availability of documents associated with this action on the NRC Technical Conference Forum and through the NRC Public Document Room; and solicits informal public input on development of proposed rule language and associated documents. The Commission plans to formally propose specific rulemaking text for public comment during summer of 1998. |
