I Comments of Commissioner Remick on SECY-93-285A:

I approve in part and disapprove in part.

In general, I agree with the views expressed by Commissioner de Planque in her vote on SECY-93-285 and SECY-93-285A.

In addition, I continue to hold to the comments in my previous vote on SECY-93-285.

With regard to SECY-93-285A, I agree with Commissioner de Planque that the limit of 10 mg soluble uranium is unduly conservative.

A more appropriate limit would be in the range of 40 to 50 mg soluble uranium as proposed by Commissioner de Planque.

I had previously commented on the backfitting issue in my initial vote on SECY-93-285.

In addition to those comments on this subject, I support the views of Commissioner de Planque, particularly, that the backfit criteria be applied at the time the final rule goes into effect.

1 With regard to the adoption of the quality assurance criteria of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, I am' concerned not so much about the l

l adoption of the Appendix B quality assurance criteria as about how the Appendix B criteria would be implemented.

The staff j

1 should give increased consideration to the feasibility of j

implementing the quality assurance criteria of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, for the gaseous diffusion facilities.

I agree with Commissioner de Planque that the staff should provide a side-by-sideLeomparison of the proposed regulations with the requirements set forth in DOE's transition document.

~

Where there are differences, the staff should provide an explanation for the difference.

I agree with Commissioner de Planque that the cost-benefit analysis need not be provided prior to publication of the draft rule.

Finally, it appears that a few of the comments that I had made in l

my previous vote on SECY-93-285 were not addressed by the staff l

in SECY-93-285A (e.g.,

detectors, approved initial application, l

etc.).

These issues should be addressed in the proposed rule l

package.
