Dear Mrs. Norry:

All documents relating to the proposed rule entitled "Completeness and Accuracy of Information," published at 52 Fed.

Reg. 7432 (March 11, 1987).

This request '.ncludes all pertinent documents within the custody of the NRC, whether created by the NRC or received from any other person or entity, including other agencies, departments or offices of the United States. The request specifically includes any correspondence to or from the Office of Management and Budget or any notes, memoranda or other documents memorializing conversations or meetings between employees of the NRC and OMB.

I agree to pay all reasonable fees necessary for the provision of these records pursuant to 10 C.F.R. 59.14. I further request that the NRC expedite its initial determina- l tion pursuant to 10 C.F.R. S9.9 because of the pendency of  !
