PUBLIC MEETINGS AND PROPOSED RULE ON PHYSICAL PROTECTION OF BYPRODUCT MATERIAL
Dear Mr. Pfieffer:
As a commenter on the preliminary rule language for a new Part 37, you have expressed interest in the security rulemaking and I would like to provide you a status update. The U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has recently published the proposed rule that addresses security requirements for the use of category 1 and category 2 quantities of radioactive material. The proposed rule would create a new Part 37 to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations. The proposed rule includes new requirements for background investigations, enhanced security during use, and transportation security. The proposed rule was published in the Federal Register (75 FR 33902) on June 15, 2010. The rule is posted at http://www.regulations.gov under Docket ID NRC-2008-0120. The public comment period ends October 13, 2010. A copy of the Federal Register Notice is enclosed for your convenience.
The NRC is also issuing draft implementation guidance for public comment. This document will be available at http://www.regulations.gov under Docket ID NRC-2010-0194. The guidance document is also available in ADAMS at Accession Number ML101470684. The NRC is planning to hold two public meetings on the draft implementation guidance in September.
Once the arrangements for these meetings are finalized, there will be a meeting notice published in the Federal Register, posted at http://www.regulations.gov under Docket ID NRC-2010-0194, and posted on the NRCs public meeting listing on the NRC website at http://www.nrc.gov/public-involve/public-meetings/index.cfm.
The NRC appreciates your past interest in this rulemaking activity. I encourage you to attend one of the meetings on the implementation guidance and provide comments on the proposed rule and the implementation guidance.
Sincerely,

PUBLIC MEETINGS AND PROPOSED RULE ON PHYSICAL PROTECTION OF BYPRODUCT MATERIAL
Dear Mr. McCabe:
As a commenter on the preliminary rule language for a new Part 37, you have expressed interest in the security rulemaking and I would like to provide you a status update. The U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has recently published the proposed rule that addresses security requirements for the use of category 1 and category 2 quantities of radioactive material. The proposed rule would create a new Part 37 to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations. The proposed rule includes new requirements for background investigations, enhanced security during use, and transportation security. The proposed rule was published in the Federal Register (75 FR 33902) on June 15, 2010. The rule is posted at http://www.regulations.gov under Docket ID NRC-2008-0120. The public comment period ends October 13, 2010. A copy of the Federal Register Notice is enclosed for your convenience.
The NRC is also issuing draft implementation guidance for public comment. This document will be available at http://www.regulations.gov under Docket ID NRC-2010-0194. The guidance document is also available in ADAMS at Accession Number ML101470684. The NRC is planning to hold two public meetings on the draft implementation guidance in September.
Once the arrangements for these meetings are finalized, there will be a meeting notice published in the Federal Register, posted at http://www.regulations.gov under Docket ID NRC-2010-0194, and posted on the NRCs public meeting listing on the NRC website at http://www.nrc.gov/public-involve/public-meetings/index.cfm.
The NRC appreciates your past interest in this rulemaking activity. I encourage you to attend one of the meetings on the implementation guidance and provide comments on the proposed rule and the implementation guidance.
Sincerely,
/RA/
