Due to a lapse in appropriations, the NRC has ceased normal operations. However, excepted and exempted activities necessary to maintain critical health and safety functions—as well as essential progress on designated critical activities, including those specified in Executive Order 14300—will continue, consistent with the OMB-Approved NRC Lapse Plan.

^[1] Volumes 1 and 2 of NUREG/CR-6931 each included a CD-ROM containing related files, as identified above.

^[2] The photographs taken during the CAROLFIRE tests are not intended to provide detailed test documentation. Rather, they provide a generic representation of the facilities used, the cables tested, and the appearance of those cables (both before and after the tests), as they were installed in the facilities. Where specific photographs directly relate to a particular test, the description indicates the test number, consistent with that used in NUREG/CR-6931.

^[3] Excel spreadsheets containing macros are separately provided in zipped folders identified as "Files with Macros."
