Summary - Use of the Web and ADAMS to Disseminate the Enforcement Policy, Discontinuation of NUREG-1600, and Simplification of the Official Policy Statement Title

On March 16, 2005, the Commission published an announcement in the Federal Register (70 FR 12908)
notifying the public of its intent to use the NRC public Web site and the NRC’s Agencywide Document Access and Management System (ADAMS) to communicate its “General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions - Enforcement Policy,” to discontinue publication of the paper document, NUREG-1600, and to simplify the official policy statement title. The NRC is taking these actions because the policy statement is available electronically on the NRC public Web site and is widely known as the “NRC Enforcement Policy.”
