WASHINGTON, D.C. 20066 4001 4....
March 15, 1999 The Honorable Al Gore President of the United States Senate Washington, DC 20510
Dear Mr. President:
Pursuant to Subtitle E of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, 5 U.S.C. 801 (Act), the Nuclear Regulatory Commission is submitting changes to the NRC's Enforcement Policy. These changes establish an interim enforcement policy for users of certain industrial devices containing NRC-regulated material. The NRC anticipates that these users may discover violations of NRC requirements as a result of proposed new NRC regulations. The interim policy provides relief from NRC enforcement action for such violations.
We have determined that this action (iriterpreted as a " rule" under the Act) is not a " major rule" as defined in 5 U.S.C. 804(2). This determination was made under a generic approval by the Office of Management and Budget for this type of action.
Enclosed is a copy of the final action, which hcs been transmitted for publication in the Federal Register. This action is effective immediately upon publication.
Si cerely, Dennis K. Rathbun, Director Office of Congressional Affairs
