August 15, 2001 Regulatory Guide 1.120

REGULATORY GUIDE DISTRIBUTION LIST (DIVISION 1)

SUBJECT: WITHDRAWAL OF REGULATORY GUIDE 1.120

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission is withdrawing Regulatory Guide 1.120, Fire Protection Guidelines for Nuclear Power Plants. Revision 1 of Regulatory Guide 1.120

was issued in November 1977.

Regulatory Guide 1.189, Fire Protection for Operating Nuclear Power Plants, which was issued in April 2001, contains comprehensive guidance on fire protection, and therefore supersedes Regulatory Guide 1.120. However, the withdrawal of Regulatory Guide 1.120 does not alter any prior or existing licensing commitments based on its use.

Regulatory guides may be withdrawn when they are superseded by the Commissions regulations, when equivalent recommendations have been incorporated in applicable approved codes and standards, or when changes in methods and techniques or in the need for specific guidance have made them obsolete.
