Original signed by FROM:

Richard A. Dopp, Acting Director Division of Facilities and Security Office of Administration

SUBJECT:

AMENDMENTS TO 10 CFR PARTS 10,11,25 AND 95 l

Attached is a proposed rule, "Conformance to National Policies For Access to And Protection of j

Classified Information," amending 10 CFR Part 10, " Criteria 'And Procedures For Determining Eligibility For Access to Restricted Data or National Security information or an Employment Clearance;" Part 11. " Criteria And Procedures For Determining Eligibility For Access to or Control Over Special Nuclear Material;" Part 25, " Access Authorization for Licensee Personnel;"

and Part 95, " Security Facility Approval And Safeguarding of National Security information And Restricted Data." The purpose of these amendments is to conform NRC regulations to national security policies and to incorporate into the regulations the results of the reorganization of the l

Office of Administration.

l It should be noted that there is one aspect of the proposed rule which has been a concem to r

l the Department of Energy. The issue relates to the question of the level of personnel screening l

for access to Secret Restricted Data in sections 25.15 and 95.35 of the proposed rule. This Issue is addressed in more detail in the " Background" section of the attached proposed rule, it should also be noted that the Security Policy Board, an inter-agency organization charged witli developing uniform national security policies, is in the process of developing implementing directives for E.O.12958, " Classified National Security Information," which may require some additional but minor revisions to the proposed rule. Since we are unaware of any conflicts j

between the attached draft and the current versions of proposed directives, we prefer not to delay this process. Should any changes be required later, we believe they would be minor and easily incorporated. Naturally, any such revisions would be fully coordinated with your office.
