NRC electronic bulletin boards and the Internet
In September 1992, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued new standard technical specifications (STSs) as five separate NUREG-series documents. The NRC published Federal Register notice 57 FR 55602 to announce the availability of the new STS and the technical specifications (Tech Specs) bulletin board system (BBS) set up to send electronic copies of the STS. This BBS has four features that are common to most BBSs: (1) news: text about new or changed features; (2) bulletins: information on topics such as file names (3) messages: electronic mail (E-mail) a user posts for another user, all users, or the BBS operators; messages may be public or private (4) files: the heart of any BBS, they contain information sought by a user; a menu allows users to list the files, choosing either all files or those of a type, such as new files since the user`s last session.
