WASHING TON, D. C. 20555 Decerbar 28, 1992 The Honorable Greg laughlin United States House of Representatives Washington, D.C.
20515-4314
Dear Congressman laughlin:
This is to acknowledge receipt of your letter dated December 1,1992, transmitting correspondence from your constituent, James E. Buckner, Jr.,
Administrator, Eagle Lake Community Hospital, in support of a petition for rulemaking filed by the American College of Nuclear Physicians and the Society for Nuclear medicine. Mr. Buckner requests that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) consider exempting hospitals, as it does eductional institutions, from paying annual fees imposed on users of nuclear materials.
A petition for rulemaking was submitted to the NRC by the American College of Nuclear Physicians and the Society of Nuclear Medicine.
The petitioners requested that the NRC modify current fee regulatinns to minimize the impacts of NRC imposed fees on the practice of nuclear medicine.
The NRC published a Federal Register notice (57 FR 46819, October 13, 1992), requesting public comment on the petition.
The notica. provided for a 60-day public comment period which expired December 14, 1992.
I want to assure you that the comments of your constituent will be considered along with the others in evaluating the fee regulations.
However, it would be premature at this time to predict the outcome of the evaluation before final disposition of the petition for rulemaking.
I trust this information is responsive to your request.
Sincerely,
/
