NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION


Regulatory Guide; Issuance, Availability

    The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has issued a new guide in its 
Regulatory Guide 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 Commission'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 3 of Regulatory Guide 8.13, ``Instruction Concerning 
Prenatal Radiation Exposure,'' has been revised to provide information 
to pregnant women, and other licensee personnel, to help make decisions 
regarding radiation exposure during pregnancy.
    Comments and suggestions in connection with items for inclusion in 
guides currently being developed or improvements in all published 
guides are encouraged at any time. Written comments may be submitted to 
the Rules and Directives Branch, Office of Administration, U.S. Nuclear 
Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555.
    Regulatory guides are available for inspection at the Commission's 
Public Document Room, 2120 L Street NW., Washington, DC. Single copies 
of regulatory guides may be obtained free of charge by writing the 
Reproduction and Distribution Services Section, OCIO, U.S. Nuclear
