In a memorandum dated April 5, 1985 (copy enclosed), the f
Executive Director for Operations established procedures for ensuring that a complete regulatory history is conpiled for each i
rulemaking action undertaken by an office under his purview.
i These procedures are applicable to any proposed or final rule i
submitted for publication in the Federal Register after April 5, 1985.
Briefly, these procedures require that--
Documents of central relevance to a i
rulemaking be maintained, and identified for a source of access; and f
l An index of documents comprising the regulatory history be developed and submitted to the Regulatory Publications Branch (RPB)
I within 60 days after the rulemaking is completed.
i
(.
The final rule that would (1) expand the investigative scope for I
licensee "R" special nuclear material access authorization and l
"L" security clearance applicants by adding a credit check; and (2) revise the corresponding fee schedules to recover the additional cost of each credit check and cost of newly imposed Federal Bureau of Investigation fees for processing fingerprint cards was published in the Federal Register on March 30, 1990.

~2-To assist you in preparing the list of documents centrally relevant to this rule, place the designator "AD28-2" in the upper l
right-hand corner of each document, including the transmittal l
memorandum, that you send to the Nuclear Document System i
t (NUDOCS), Mail Stop P1-37.
Each document transmitted to NUDOCS that can be made available to the public should be marked "PDR" l
in the upper right-hand corner of the front page.
Documents that l
cannot be made available to the public should be marked "CF" (Central Files) in the upper right-hand corner of the first page.
In addition, Cr documents should be grouped after the PDR documents in order to streamline the microfiching process.
You should be sure to check all attachments to each document marked "PDR" to ensure that no documents to be withheld are l
inadvertently released.
Examples of documents to be withheld l
(which sometimes are attached to documents that are released routinely) include Commission vote sheets and SECY Papers.
In no case should a Commission vote sheet be released.
Under l
Commission procedures, release of SECY Papers requires the concurrence of a majority of the Commissioners.
Accordingly, release of any SECY Paper must be coordinated with the Office of I
the Secretary.
All Commission vote sheets. and any SECY Paper that is to be withheld, should be marked " Central Files only."
Approximately two weeks after you submit the documents to the NUDOCS you should receive a computer printout listing the documents you submitted to the NUDOCS.
If you do not receive the printout within two or three weeks, call the NUDOCS hotline, extension 28603, and request the printout.
You should forward a copy of this printout, which comprises the regulatory history l
index, to the RPB.
f If you have any questions, please call me on extension 27758, or j
l Betty Golden on extension 24268.
