Dear Mr. Chairman:

In accordance with the requirements of OBRA-90 to recover I

100 percent of our budget authority, the NRC published a final rule on July 20, 1993 establishing annual fee schedules for its licensees for fiscal year 1993.

The final rule also eliminated a generic exemption from annual fees previously applicable to nonprofit educational institutions.

The Commission's need to revisit the generic exemption for nonprofit educational inscv2 Lions was occasioned by a March 16, 3993, decision of the U.S.

Courc of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit (Allied Signal, Inc.

v.

U.S.

Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the United States of America, No. 91-1407 and Consolidated Cases)

)

which forced the Commission to acknowledge the serious weakness j

of, and abandon, the passthrough argument formerly made on behalf of these institutions.

i Following publication of the final rule, the Commission received i

a petition from Cornell and eleven other universities for reconsideration of the final rule and requesting reinstatement of the exemption for nonprofit educational institutions.

The Commission has decided to grant the petition to reconsider this matter and is issuing a proposed rule to amend 10 CFR Part 171 to restore the generic exemption from annual fees for nonprofit educational institutions.

Enclosed is a copy of the proposed rule which is being

transmitted to the Federal Register for a 30 day public comment period.
