AUTHORITY: Sec. 8, Pub. L.95-601, adding Sec.170A to Pub. L.83-703, 68 Stat. 919, as amended (42 U.S.C. ch.14) l 120-1.5401 Scope and Policy (NRC)(a) It is the to avoid, policy or eliminate of neutralize the U.S. Nuclear contractorRegulatory Commission organizational conflicts of interest. The NRC achieves this objective by requiring all prospective  ;

contractors to submit information describing relationships, if any, with i organizations or persons (including those regulated by NRC) which may 1 give rise to actual or potential conflicts of interest in the event of contract award.

(b) Contractor conflict of interest determinations cannot be made automatically or routinely; the application of sound judgment on virtually a case-by-case basis is necessary if the policy is to be applied so as to satisfy the overall public interest. It is not possible to prescribe in advance a specific method or set of criteria which would serve to identify and resolve all of the contractor conflict of interest situations which might arise; however, examples are provided in these regulations to guide application of the policy. NRC contracting and program officials must be alert to other situations which may warrant application of this policy guidance. The ultimate test is: Might the contractor, if awarded the contract, be placed in a position where its judgment may be biased, or where it may have an unfair competitive advantage?

l (c) The conflict of interest rule contained in this subpart applies to contractors and offerors only. Indiv.iduals or firms who have other I relationships with NRC (e.g., parties to a licensing proceeding) are not l covered by this regulation. This rule does not apply to the acquisition of consulting services through the personnel appointment process, NRC

7590-01 i

agreements with other government agencies, international organizations, or state, local or foreign governments; separate procedures for avoiding conflicts of interest will be employed in such agreements, as appropriate.

520-1.5402 Definitions (a) " Organizational conflicts of interest" means that a relationship exists whereby a contractor or prospective contractor has present or  !

planned interests related to the work to be performed under an NRC i contract which: (1) May diminish its capacity to give impartial, technically l sound, objective assistance and advice or may otherwise result in a biased work product, or (2) may result in its being given an unfair

competitive advantage.

(b) "Research" means any scientific or technical work involving theoretical analysis, exploration, or experimentation. .

(c)

  • Evaluation activities" means any effort involving the appraisal of a technology, process, product, or policy.

(d) " Technical consulting and management support services" means internal assistance to a component of the NRC in the forinulation or administration of its programs, projects, or policies which normally

' require the contractor to be given access to information which has not  :

been made available to the public or proprietary information. Such '

services typically include assistance in the preparation of program plans; artd preparation of preliminary designs, specifications, or statements of work.

(e) " Contract" means any contract, agreement, or other arrangement with the NRC except as provided in Section 20-1.5401(c).

(f) " Contractor" means any person, firm, unincorporated association, joint venture, co-spongor, partnership, corporatica, affiliates thereof, or their successors in interest, including their chief executives, directors, key personnel (identified in the contract), proposed consultants or subcontractors, which is a party to a contract with the NRC.

(g) " Affiliates" means business concerns which are affiliates of each other when either directly or indirectly one concern or individual controls or has the power to control another, or when a third party controls or has the power to control both (41 CFR !1-1.606-1(e)).

(h) " Subcontractor" means any subcontractor of any tier which performs supplies and work under a contract subcontracts in amounts with the NRC of $10,000 orexcept less. subcontracts for l (i) " Prospective contractor" or " offeror" means any person, firm, unincorporated association, joint venture, partnership, corporation, or

~

affiliates thereof, including its chief executive, directors, key personnel (identified in the proposal), proposed consultants, or subcontractors, submitting a bid or proposal, solicited or unsolicited, to the NRC to

[ obtain a contract.

7590-01 (j) " Potential conflict of interest" means that a factual situation exists that suggests (indicates) that an actual conflict of interest may arise from award of a proposed contract. The term " potential conflict of interest" is used to signify those situations which merit investigation prior to contract award in order to ascertain whether award would give rise to an actual conflict or which must be . reported to the contracting officer for investigation if they arise during contract perfomance.

Criteria for recognizing contractor organizational r

l 520-1.5403 conflicts of interest (a) General. Two questions will be asked in detemining whether actual or potential organizational conflicts of interest exist: (1) Are there conflicting roles which might bias a contractor's j' dgment u in relation to its work for the NRC7 (2) May the contractor be given an unfair competitive advantage based on the performance of the contract?

The ultimate detemination by NRC as to whether organizational conflicts of interest exist will be made in light of common sense and good business judgment based upon the relevant facts disclosed and the work to be performed. While it is difficult to identify and to prescribe in advance a specific method for avoiding all of the various situations or relationships which might involve potential organizational conflicts of interest, NRC personnel will pay particular attention to proposed contractual requirements which call for the rendering of advice, consultation or evaluation l

l activities, or similar activities that lay direct groundwork for the

! NRC's decisions on regulatory activities, future procurements, and research programs.

(b) Situations or relationships which may give rise to organizational conflicts of interest. (1) The offeror or contractor shall disclose infomation concerning relationships which may give rise to organizational conflicts of interest under the following circumstances:

(1) Where the offeror or contractor provides advice and recommendations to the NRC in a technical area in which it is also providing consulting assistance in the same area to any organization regulated by the NRC.

(ii) Where the offeror or contractor provides advice to the NRC on the same or similar matter in which it is also providing assistance to any or5anization regulated by the NRC.

(iii) Where the offeror or contractor evaluates its own products or services, or the products or services of another entity where the offeror or contractor has been substantially involved in their development or marketing.

(iv) Where the award of a contract would othemise result in placing the offeror or contractor in a conflicting role in which its judgment may be biased in relation to its work for the NRC or may otherwise result in an unfair competitive advantage for the offeror or contractor. ,

7590-01 (2) The contracting officer may request specific information from an offeror or contractor or may require special contract provisions such as provided in 520-1.5405-2 in the following circumstances:

(1) Whets the offeror or contractor prepares specifications which are to be used in competitive procurements of products or services covered by such specifications.

(ii) Where the offeror or contractcr prepares plans for specific approaches or methodologies that are to be incorporated into competitive procurements using such approaches or methodologies.

(iii) Where the offeror or contractor is granted access to infomatica not available to the public concerning NRC plans, policies, or programs which could form the basis for a later procurement action.

(iv) Where the offeror or contractor is granted access to proprietary

infomation of its competitors.

(v) Where the award of a contract might otherwise result in placing the offeror or contractor in a conflicting role in which its judgment may be biased in relation to its work for the NRC or may otherwise result in an unfair competitive advantage for the offeror or contractor.

(c) Policy application guidance. The following examples are illustrative only and are not intended to identify and resolve all contractor organizational conflict of interest situations. (1) Example.

The XYZ Corp., in response to a request for proposal (RFP), proposes to undertake certain analyses of a reactor component as called for in the

RFP. The XYZ Corp. is one of several companies considered to be technically well qualified. In response to the inquiry in the RFP, the XYZ Corp.

advises that it is currently performing similar analyses for the reactor manufacturer.

Guidance. An NRC contract for that particular work nortnally would not be awarded to the XYZ Corp. because it would be placed in a position in which its judgment could be biased in relationship to its work for NRC. Since there are other well-qualified companies available, there would be no reason fer considering a waiver of the policy.

(2) Example. The A8C Corp., in response to a RFP, proposes to perform certain analyses of a reactor component hich are unique to one s type of advanced reactor. As is the case with other technically qualified companies responding to the RFP, the A8C Corp. is perfoming various projects for several different utility clients. None of the ABC Corp.

projects have any relationship to the work called for in the RFP. Based on the NRC evaluation, the ABC Corp. is considered to be the best qualified company to parform the work outlined in the RFP.

.-. , , _ , . _ . . _ ,r._ . - - __ y. ., , _ , , _ . , . . . , _ _ , , . _ . , _ _ . , ,-r_, _

7590-01 Guidani:e. An NRC contract normally could be awarded to the ABC Corp. because no conflict of interest exists which would motivate bias with respect to the work. An appropriate clause would be included in the contract to preclude the ABC Corp. from subsequently contracting for work during the performance of the NRC contract with the private sector '

, which could create a conflict. For example ABC Corp. would be precluded from the perfonnance of similar work for the company developing the advanced reactor mentioned in the example.

(3) Example. As a result of operating problems in a certain type of comercial nuclear facility, it is imperative that NRC secure specific data on various . operational aspects of that type of plant so as to assure adequate safety protection of the public. Only one manufacturer has extensive experience with that type of plant. Consequently, that i company is the only one with whom NRC can contract which can develop ano conduct the testing programs required to obtain the data in reasonable time. That company has a definite interest in any NRC decisions that might result from the data produced because those decihions affect the reactor's design and thus the company's costs.

Guidance. This situation would place the manufacturer in a role in which its judgment could be biased in relationship to its work for NRC.

Since the nature of the work required is vitally important in terms of NRC's responsibilities and no reasonable alternative exists, a waiver of the policy may be warranted. Any such waiver shall be fully documented and coordinated in accordance with the waiver provisions of this policy with particular attention to the establishment of protective mechanisms to g'uard against bias.

(4) Example. The ABC Co. submits a proposa'l for a new system for evaluating a specific reactor component's performance for the purpose of developing standards that are impiortant to the NRC program. The ABC Co.

has advised NRC that it intends to sell the new system to industry once its practicability has been demonstrated. Other companies in this 4

business are using older systems for evaluation of the specific reactor 1 component.

l Guidance. A contract could be awarded to the ABC Co. provided that the contract stipulates that no infonnation produced under the contract I

will be used in the contractor's private activities unless such information has been reported to NRC. Information which is reported to NRC by contractors will normally be disseminated by NRC to others so as to preclude an unfair competitive advantage that might otherwise accrue. When NRC furnishes infonnation to the contractor for the performance of contract work, it shall not be used in the contractor's private activities unless such information is generally available to others. Further the contract will stipulate that the contractor will inform the NRC contracting officer of all situations in which the information developed under the contract is proposed to be used.

7590-01

~

(5) Example. The ABC Corp., in response to a RFP proposes to assemble a map, showing certain seismological features of the Appalachian fold belt. In accordance with the representation in the RFP and 5 20-1.5403(b)(1)(1), A8C Corp. informs the NRC that it is presently doing seismolog'ical studies for several utilities in the Eastern United States but none of the sites are within the geographic area contemplated by the NRC study.

1 Guidance. The contracting officer would nomally conclude that award of a contract would not place ABC Corp. in a conflicting role where its judgment might be biased. The work for others clause of a20-1.5405-1(c) would preclude ABC Corp. fism accepting work during the tem of the NRC contract which could create a conflict of interest.

(d) Other considerations. (1) The fact that the NRC can identify and later avoid, eliminate, or neutralize any potential organizational conflicts arising from the perfomance of a contract is not relevant to a determination of the existence of such conflicts prior to the award of a contract.

(2) It is not relevant that the contractor has the professional reputation of being able to resist temptations which arise from organizational conflicts of interest, or that a follow-on procurement is not involved, or that a contract is awarded on a compet'itive or a sole source basis.

520-1.5404 Representation (a) The following procedures are designed to assist'the NRC contracting officer in determining whether situations or relationships exist which may constitute organizational conflicts of interest with respect to a particular offeror or contractor.

(b) Representation procedure. The following organizational

, conflicts of interest representation provision shall be included in all i solicitations and unsolicited proposals for: (1) Evaluation services or activities; (2) technical consulting and management support services; (3) research; and (4) other contractual situations where special organizational conflicts of interest provisions are noted in the solicitation and would be included in toe resulting contract. This representation requirement shall also apply to all modifications for additional effort under e,ae contract except those issued under the " changes" clause. Where, however, a statement of the type required by the organizational conflicts of interest representation. provision has previously been submitted with regard to the contract being modified, only an updating of such statement shall be required.

75b0-01 ORGANIZATIONAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST REPRESENTATION I represent to the best of my knowledge and belief that:

! The award to of a contract or the modification of an existing contract does ( ) or does not ( ) involve situations or relationships 1

of the type set forth in 41 CFR's20-1.5403(b)(1).

(c) Instructions to offerors. The following shall be included in l all NRC solicitations: (1) If the representation as completed indicates that situations or relationships of the type set forth in 41 CFR 5 20-1.5403(b)(1) are involved, or the contracting officer otherwise determines that potential organizational conflicts exist, the offeror shall provide a statement in writing which describes in a concise manner all relevant facts bearing on his representation to the contracting l

officer. If the contracting officer determines that organizational conflicts exist, the following actions may be taken: (1) Impose appropriate conditions which avoid such conflicts, (ii) disqualify the offeror, or (iii) detennine that it is otherwise in the best interest of the United States to seek award of the contract under the waiver provisions of ,

120-1.5411.  !

(2) The refusal to provide the representation required by 5 20- l 1.5404(b) or upon request of the contracting officer the facts required by '520-1.5404(c), shall result in disqualification of the offeror for ,

The nondisclosure or misrepresentation of any relevant interest award.

may also result in the disqualification of the offeror for award; or if such nondisclosure or misrepresentation is discovered after award, the resulting contract may be terminated. The offeror may also be disqualified from subsequent related NRC contracts and be subject to such other i remedial actions provided by law or the resulting contract.

(d) The offeror may, because of actual or potential organizational conflicts of interest, propose to exclude specific kinds of work from the statements of work contained in a RFP unless the RFP specifically prohibits such exclusion. Any such proposed exclusion by an offeror ,

will be considered by the NRC in the evaluation of proposals. If the 1 l

NRC considers the proposed excluded work to be an essential or integral part of the required work and its exclusion would work to the detriment of the competitive posture of the other offerors, the proposal must be

rejected as unacceptable.

(e) The offeror's failure to execute t'..: representation required by subsection (b) above with respect to invitation for bids will be considered to be a minor informality, and the offeror will be pennitted to correct the omission.

, s 20-1.5405 Contract clauses s 20-1.5405-1 General contract clause i

7590-01 All contracts of the types set forth in i20-1.5404(b) shall include the following clauses:

(a) Purpose. The primary purpose of this clause is to aid in ensuring that the contractor: (1) Is not placed in a conflicting role because of current or planned interest (financial, contractual, organizational, l

or othemise) which relate to the work under this contract, and (2) t does not obtain an unfair competitive advantage over other parties by virtue of its performance of this contract.

(b) Scope. The restrictions described herein shall apply to performance or participation by the contractor as defined in 41 CFR I 20-1.5402(f) in the actitities covered by this clause.

(c) .W ork for others. Notwithstanding any other provision of this contract, during the tem of this contract, the contractor agrees to forego entering into consulting or other contractual arrangements with any firm or organization, the result of which may give rise to a conflict of interest with respect to the work being perfomed under this contract.

The contractor shall ensure that all employees who are employed full time under this contract and employees designated as key personnel, if 1

any, under this contract abide by the provision of this clause. If the contractor believes with respect to itself or any such employee that any proposed consultant or other contractual arrangement with any fim or organization may involve a potential conflict of interest, the contractor shall obtain the written approval of the contracting officer prior to execution of such contractual arrangement.

(d) Disclosure after award. (1) The contractor warrants that to the best of its knowledge and belief and except as othemise set forth in this contract, it does not have any organizdional conflicts of interest, as defined in 41 CFR 520-1.5402(a).

(2) The contractor agrees that if after award it discovers organizational conflicts of interest with respect to this contract, it shall make an imediate and full disclosure in writing to the contracting officer.

This statement shall include a description of the action which the contractor has taken or proposes to take to avoid or mitigat,e such conflicts. The NRC may, however, teminate the contract for convenience if it deems such temination to be in the best interests of the government.

(e) Access to and use of information. (1) If the contractor in '

the perfomance of this. contract obtains access to infomation, such as NRC plans, policies, reports, studies, financial plans, internal data i protected by the Privacy Act of 1974 (Pub. L.93-579), or data which has

! not been released to the public, the contractor agrees not jo: (1) Use such released information for any(private to the public; ii) compete purpose until for work forthe theinformation Comission has basedbeen l

on such informati~on for a period of six (6) months after either the completion of this contract or the release of such information to the public, whichever is first (iii) submit an unsolicited proposal to the government based on such information until one year after the release of such information to the public, or (iv) release the information without J prior written approval by the contracting officer unless such information l has previously been released to the public by the NRC.*

(2) In addition, the contractor agrees that to the extent it receives or is given access to proprietary data, data protected by the Privacy Act of 1974 (Pub. L.93-579), or other confidential or privileged technical, business, or financial information under this contract, the contractor shall treat such information in accordance with restrictions placed on use of the information.

(3) The contractor shall have, subject to patent and security provisions of this contract, the right to use technical data it produces under this contract for private purposes provided that all requirements of this contract have been met.

(f) Subcontracts. Except as provided in 41 CFR 520-1.5402(h), the contractor shall include this clause, including this paragraph, in subcontracts of any tier. The terms " contract," " contractor," and

" contracting officer,"*shall be appropriately modified to preserve the government's rights.  !

(g) Remedies. For breach of any of the above proscriptions or for intentional nondisclosure or misrepresentation of any relevant interest required to be disclosed concerning this contract or for such erroneous representations as necessarily imply bad faith, the government may terminate the contract for default, disqualify the contractor from subsequent contractual efforts, and pursue other remedies as may be permitted by law or this contract.

(h) Waiver. A ' request for waiver under this clause shall be directed in writing through the contracting officer to the Executive Director for Operations (ED0) in accordance with the procedures outlined in120-1.5411.

520-1.5405-2 Special contract provisions.

(a) If it is determ.ned from the nature of the proposed contract that organizational conflicts of interest exist, the contracting officer may determine that such conflict can be avoided or after obtaining a waiver in accordance with 520-1.5411, neutralized through th.e use of an l appropriate special contract provision. If appropriate, the offeror may negotiate the terms and conditions of these clauses, including the extent and time period of any such restriction. These provisions include but are not limited to:

.g.

7590-01 (1) Hardware exclusion clauses which prohibit the acceptance of production contracts followinij a related nonproduction contract previously performed by the contractor; (2) Software exclusion clauses;

, (3) Clauses which require the contractor (and certain of his key j personnel) to avoid certain organizational conflicts of interest; and

(4) Clauses which provide for protection of confidential data and guard against its unauthorized use.

(b) The following additional contract clause may be included as section (i) in the clause set forth ins 20-1.5405-1 when it is determined that award of a follow-on contract would constitute an organizational conflict of interest.

(i) Follow-on effort. (1) The contractor shall be ineligible to participate in NRC contracts, subcontracts, or proposals therefor (solicited or unsolicited) which stem directly from the contractor's performance of work under this contract. Furthermore, unless so directed in writing by the contracting officer, the contractor shall not perfonn any technical consulting or management support services work or evaluation activities under this contract on any of its products or services or the products or services of another firm if the contractor has been substantially involved in the development or marketing of such products or services.

(2) If the contractor under this contract prepares a complete or essentially complete statement of work or specifications, the contfactor shall be ineligible to perform or participate in the initial contractual effort which is based on such statement of work or specifications. The contractor shall not incorporate its products or services in such statement of work or specifications unless so directed in writing by the contracting officer, in which case the restriction in this subparagraph shall not apply. .

(3) Nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the contractor from offering or selling its standard comercial items to the government.

! 5 20-1.5406 Evaluation, findings, and contract award The contracting officer will evaluate all relevant facts submitted by on offeror pursuant to the representation requirements of 520-1.5404(b) and other relevant informaticn. After evaluating this information agains*t the criteria of 320-1.5403, a finding will be made by the contracting i

officer whether organizational conflicts of interest exist with respect

to a particular offeror. If it has oeen determined that conflicts of '

interest exist, then tne contract 1ng officer shall eitner:

(a) Disqualify.tne offeror from award, t ,

l6

7590-01 (b) Avoid or eliminate such conflicts by appropriate measures; or (c) Award the contract under the waiver provision of 520-1.5411. ,

I 120-1.5407 Conflicts identified after award.  !

If potential organizational conflicts of interest are identified after award with respect to a particular contractor, the contracting officer determines that such conflicts do, in fact, exist and that it would not be in the best interests of the government to terminate the contract as provided in the clauses required by $20-1.5405, the contracting officer will take every reasonable action to avoid, eliminate, or, after obtaining a waiver in accordance with 520-1.5411, neutralize the effects of the identified conflict.

520-1.5408 (Reserved) 520-1.5409 (Reserved) 520-1.5410 Subcontracts The contracting officer shall require offerors and contractors to submit'a representation statement in accordance with !20-1.5404(b) from subcontractors and consultants. The contracting officer shall require the contractor to include contract clauses in accordance with 5 20-l.5405 in consultant agreements or subcontracts involving performance of work under a prime contract covered by this subsection.

i20-1.5411 Waiver in the first instance, determination with respect to the need to seek a waiver for specific contract awards shall be made by the contracting officer with the advice and concurrence of the program office director and the Office of Executive Legal Director. Upon the recommendation of the contracting officer, and after consultation with the Office of the General Counsel, the EDO may waive the policy in specific cases if he determines that it is in the best interest of the United States to do so.

Such action shall be strictly limited to those situations in which: l

, (1) Th. work to be performed under contract is vital to the NRC program; (2) the work cannot be satisfactorily performed except by a contractor whose interests give rise to a question of conflict of interest; and (3) contractual and/or technical review and supervision methods can be employed by NRC to neutralize the conflict. For any such waivers, the justification and approval occuments shall be placed in the Public Document Room.

7590-01 l?O-1. 5412 Remedies In addition to such other remedies as may be permitted by law or contract f6r a breach of the restrictions in this subpart or for any intentional misrepresentation or intentional nondisclosure of any 1 l

relevant interest required *to be provided for this section, the NRC may debar the contractor from subsequent NRC contracts. f i

as applicable . State when and to whom they should be submitted and what they should contain. These reports may be unclassified, sensitive unclassified or classified . Standards for each of these categories are presented in Parts 11 through V. The following definitions describe the types of reports that may be specified:

technical reports - information on the technical aspects of contract work. These may be interim or final technical letter reports, draft

or final formal technical reports for publication in the NUREG/CR or NUREG/CP series , or draft or final material for inclusion in SERs or ESs (see definitions below).

technical letter reports (also called technical evaluation reports ) -

, interim or final letters that provide information on the technical

i aspects of the contract work. Interim technical letter reports may be required at various stages of a project. These interim letters usually are followed by a final technical letter report or a formal technical report. Final technical letter reports are usually specified in situations where the technical work is review and evaluation of work of others or work to be used by the staff in the licensing and regulation process. Interim letter reports may include, but are not limited to, informal (interim) progress reports , quick-look reports, data reports, status summary reports, project descriptions, pre-test predictions , model verifications , experiment safety anal-yses, e xperimen t operating procedures , facility certification reports, and test result reports. These reports must be identified with the financial number (FIN) assigned to the project. They are not to be identified with DOE registered report codes. The num-ber of copies to be prepared and the distribution of those copies will be specified by the project manager.

formal technical reports - the final product of research, an original investigation, or a significant compilation of information. This pro-duct is ., formal technical report for publication in the NUREG/CR or NUREG/CP series. For extensive long-term projects, formal monthly, quarterly or semiannual and annual periodic technical reports may be a

required. A draf t of the final or periodic report may be requested for comment prior to preparation of the camera-ready copy.

! B. REQUIREMENTS FOR FORMAL REPORTS i If the contractor is to prepare a final formal technical report for'publi-cation, state that it will be printed and distributed by NRC from camera-i ready copy submitted by the contractor, unless the work is being done for the Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research by a DOE facility or I Laboratory with a JCP-authorized printing' plant, The camera-ready l copy is to be prepared in accordance with the provisions of this appen-j dix.

If the report is to be printed by NRC and it is unclassified, the camera-ready copy is to be submitted by the contractor to the Director, Division of TechnicalInformation and Document Control, NRC, Washington, D.C. 20555, by first class mail. For handling of sensitive unclassified and classified reports see Part V of this appendix and NRC Appendix 2101.

Unclassified reports printed for the Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research t

should be handled in accordance with Parts IV and V of this appendix

! and/or Chapter 1102.

l If a draft is desired prior to completion of a final technical letter report, j formal technical report, final material for inclusion in an SER or ES, or i for comment by participants in cooperative programs with foreign gov-j ernments and organizations and with U.S. industry, state that require-j ment and the time frame for delivering the final camera-ready copy after i

receiving NRC and/or participant comments on the draft. State that all i, draft material should be submitted to the cognizant project manager. .

1 i When the contractor is to submit draft material for comment prior to the l* preparation of the final report, state that if there are NRC program ,

and/or participant comments the contractor will be asked to make changes.

j If agreement on the changes is reached, the NRC manager will authorize _

the contractor to prepare the final copy and submit it to the project 'yI

This is to be done to assure proper publication, handling, and distribution and, among other things, to preclude further changes that might nullify the agreement. If caveats were agreed to and the project manager wishes to check the final document for their presence, he/she should inform TIDC of that desire.

o In that case, upon receipt of the camera-ready copy by TIDC, the project manager will be informed and requested to prepare and sign the NRC Form 426A.

Also state that if agreement on changes to a formal technical report to be issued in the NUREG/CR series is n_ot reached, the NRC project manager may request the contractor to prepare the camera-ready copy with , in addition to the standard disclaimer required on all contractor formal reports (see Exhibit G), any caveats deemed necessary to cover NRC objections. Such caveats may range from the "The views expressed in this report are not necessarily those of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission" to the addition of a preface setting forth the NRC opinion or footnotes at appropriate locations within the text.

State that if NRC objections cannot be covered in this manner NRC can refuse to publish the report. In the case of DOE / National Laboratory reports , the DOE Operations Office Manager responsible for that labora-tory should be informed by the NRC Office Director or Regional Adminis-trator of the decision and the reasons therefor, with a copy to the Laboratory Director. In the case of another Federal agency, a State, or 1 a private contractor, the person who executed the contract should simi-larly be informed by the NRC Contracting Officer. The contractor is then free to publish without NRC identification of the report. Project manager or higher level decisions may be appealed to the NRC Executive Director for Operations.

D. PUBLISHING UNCLASSIFIED INFORMATION IN OPEN LITERATURE AND PRESENTING PAPERS If the contractor's principal investigator is to be allowed to publish in the open literature instead of submitting a final report and/or present papers at public or association meetings during the course of the work, add the following statement to the Statement of Work:

The principal investigator (s) may publish the results of this work in the open literature instead of submitting a final report and/or present papers at public or association meetings at interim stages of the work.

If the project manager wants to review the paper or journal article prior to presentation or submission for publication, state this in the Statement of Work, as follows:

The principal investigator (s) may publish the results of this work in I the open literature instead of submitting a final report and/or pre-p sent papers at public or association meetings at interim stages of the work, if the article or paper has been reviewed by the NRC project i

NRC-1102 must be followed.

If agreement is not reached, NRC may also ask that the paper include in addition to the standard statement " Work supported by the U.S.

Nuclear Regulatory Commission," any caveats deemed necessary to cover NRC objections. If NRC objections cannot be covered in this manner, NRC can refuse to authorize publication in the open litera-ture and/or presentation of papers.

In the latter case, NRC will inform the contractor of the decision, as stated above for formal reports (see Section C, paragraphs 3 and 4).

The contractor is then free to publish without NRC identification of the information. This will not affect payment of the contract work costs.

Project manager or higher level decisions may be appealed to the NRC Executive Director for Operations, if the contractor proposes to publish in the open literature or present the information at meetings in addition to submitting the required tech-i nical reports, approval of the proposed article or presentation should be obtained from the NRC project manager. The NRC project manager shall either approve the material as submitted , approve it subject to NRC-suggested revisions, or disapprove it. In any event, a project manager may disapprove or delay presentation or publication of papers on infor-mation that is subject to Commissioner approval that has not been ruled 5' j upon or which has been disapproved.

2 (See Chapter 3206 for provisions relating to payment of page charges and travel costs for presentation of papers. )

E. TYPOGRAPHY The text of reports must be single spaced on 8\ x 11-in. paper, unless otherwise specifically authorized. Occasionally , reports with many sym-bots and mathematical expressions may require one and one-half spacing to provide for superscripts and subscripts . This spacing should be allowed where needed, but should be considered an exception, not the standard.

F. REPORTS CONTAINING SENSITIVE UNCLASSIFIED AND CLASSIFIED 4

. for this. More detailed guidance is available from TIDC upon request.

H. WRITING AND PUBLISHING UNCLASSIFIED BOOKS NRC may, under certain circumstances , publish books prepared by grantees or contractors. For general information and guidance on book publishing, see Chapter NRC-3210, " Book Writing and Publishing."

1. DISTRIBUTION OF REPORTS TO CONTRACTORS
Up to 50 copies of unclassified formal technical reports may be retained by or will be bulk shipped to the contractor by NRC for internal use.

If fewer than 50 copies are needed, indicate the desired quantity on NRC Form 426A. Single copies for specific individuals in organizations other than the contractor's organization who are not included in the distribution requested by the NRC project manager may be requested on a project basis or on a report-by-report basis. The request, with written justifi-cation, should be addressed to the NRC project manager, with a copy to NRC/TIDC. If the additional distribution is approved by the NRC project manager, the contractor shall send these copies (if printing is done by the contractor) and address labels, even if printing is done by NRC, to NRC/TIDC, where the distribution will be made along with the standard distribution. Distribution of sensitive unclassified and classi-l h fied reports will be made by the project manager on a case-by-case basis.

J. COORDINATION OF PRESS OR OTHER MEDIA RELEASES OF UNCLASSI-FIED INFORMATION A contractor may request permission to issue a press or other media release on the work being done. Such request shall be made to the project manager, who will consult with his/her management and with the Office of Public Affairs. The contractor may not issue a press release on nonroutine information without this prior coordination. This coordination may be accomplished by telephone, with the NRC project manager respon-sible for expeditious handling. Decisions not to release information or delays in handling by the project manager may be appealed to the NRC Executive Director for Operations.

B. PATENT AND SECURITY REVIEWS

1. Patent Review Patent implications shall be considered prior to approval of reports for public release so that disclosure will not adversely affect the patent rights of NRC or the contractor. If the work being reported is contractually managed through another government agency (e.g. , i DOE laboratories), that government agency should be requested by the contractor to perform the patent review . The result of such review shall be reported on NRC Form 426A in item 11 (Exhibit 5).

If NRC directly administers the contract or the contractor is unable to obtain a patent clearance from the government agency administer-ing the contract, the responsible NRC contracting officer shall be consulted, and the responsible NRC project manager shall consider the patent implications . If there is no need for patent review because of the certainty that the report contains no description of novel technical developments which may be of an inventive nature.

NRC Form 426A may be completed with the statement "Not Appli-cable" or "N/A" in the space for the Patent Counsel's signature. If there is a possibility that there is disclosure of developments of an inventive nature, the contracting officer shall request assistance l from the NRC Patent Counsel.

2. Security Review 1 In most cases, contractor reports will be unclassified. Should a report of sensitive unclassified or classified work be required ,

however, the NRC project manager must work with the NRC l Division of Security to establish the appropriate procedures and inform the contractor of such procedures through the contracting ~

officer. The standards for marking and handling such reports are S l

given in Part V of this appendix and NRC Appendix 2101. / ~;

7. References and BibUographies Reports or other documents eferenced in text, reference sections, bibliographies , and appen6 tes of unclassified regulatory and technical reports in the NUREG series must be available to the public either in the public domain (as in a public library, at the Government Printing Office, at the National Technical Information Service , or at other reference or sales outlets) or in the NRC Public Document Room. This means that references should not be made to personal communications and interviews , unpublished information and information with restricted distribution (e.g.,

proprietary, national security , official use only, etc.). If the unretrievable information is important and unrestricted, it can be quoted in the text, in footnotes, or in appendixes. If credit is due to individuals, they can be mentioned in the text or in an acknow-ledgement section . Availability may be stated collectively for all entries (see Exhibit 6).

Guidelines for developing and presenting reference material are provided in NUREG-0650, " Technical Writing Style G uide , " pub-lished in November 1979 (see Appendix A, pp.19-23, for specific guidance) and Supplement I dated February 1982.

8. Bibliograpic Data Sheet NRC Form 335 (Exhibit 7) shall be prepared and included in the camera-ready copy as the final right-hand page.

B. PATENT AND SECURITY REVIEWS

1. Patent Review Patent implications shall be considered prior to approval of reports for public release so that disclosure will not adversely affect the patent rights of NRC or the contractor. The DOE Operations Office responsible for the contractor should perform the patent review .

The results of such review shall be reported by the contractor on NRC Form 426A in item 11 (Exhibit 5).

i

2. Security Review In most cases, reports will be unclassified. Should a report of sen-sitive unclassified or classified work be required , however, the

, NRC project manager must work with the Division of Security to

  • establish the appropriate classification procedures and inform the contractor. The standards for marking and handling such reports are given in Part V of this appendix and NRC Appendix 2101.

i C. PROCEDURES FOR PRINTING AND DISTRIBUTING

1. Printing Contractor reports may be printed only by a JCP-authorized print-ing plant and then only if prepared for the NRC Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research. Reports printed by the contractor and one reproducible master shall be submitted to the Division of Technical Information and Document Control, with completed NRC Form 426A.

The number of copies specified by the Statement of Work for stand-ard and incidental distribution shall be provided. The appropriate identifying number (NUREG/CR _) may be obtained as discussed in Section A . 2. b . (1) .

2. Reprinting Requests for reprinting of any report at NRC expense subsequent to the initial printing requires approval of the Division of Technical Information and Document Control. The request shall include a written justification and the project managers approval for the re-printing, along with address labels for the recipients.
3. Distribution of Reports M All copies of unclassified formal contractor reports will be distrib-
  • uted by the Division of Technical Information and Document Control in accordance with instructions on NRC Form 426A (Exhibit 5).

NRC Form 426A must be signed by a contractor official authorized by the project manager. Such authorization shall be reported in writing to the Division of Technical Information and Document Control .

If any distribution is to be made other than, or in addition to, the standard distribution established for the report, written justification and the project manager's approval for printing additional copies shall accompany the reproducible masters when submitted to the Division of Technical Information and Document Control. Address labels for the additional distribution must be supplied.

The Division of Technical Information and Document Control will arrange automatic distribution of these reports to the NRC Docu-ment Control System, the NRC Public Document Room, the National Technical Information Service (NTIS), the Government Printing Office and the Depository Library Service.

Distribution of sensitive (unclassified) and classified reports will be made by the NRC project manager on a case-by-case basis.

PART V REPORTS CONTAINING SENSITIVE UNCLASSIFIED

. AND CLASSIFIED INFORMATION A. APPLICABILITY These procedures and exhibits of this part apply to sensitive unclassi-fied and classified reports prepared by NRC contractors . These reports include those designated:

Official Use Only Limited Official Use Proprietary Information Safeguards Information Confidential Secret Top Secret Only sufficient information is presented here to aid in the preparation of the properly marked covers, title pages, back covers, and text pages.

Details of the NRC Security Program and specific provisions for deter-

. mining when to use the markings exhibited are contained in NRC Appendix 2101.

The reports covered are defined as sensitive unclassified or classified.

Sensitive unclassified information refers to information designated Official Use Only , Limited Official Use, and Proprietary Information .

Sensitive unclassified information also includes Safeguards Information that must be protected from unauthorized disclosure pursuant to 10 CFR 73.21 and Section 147 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, information withheld from public dissemination under the Freedom of Information Act or Privacy Act, and information not to be exported to or disclosed to foreign countries.

Classified information as used in 'this part includes Restricted Data, Formerly Restricted Data or National Security Information that requires protection in one of the three classification categories described in Executive Order 12356: Top Secret, Secret or Confidential.

The uses of each of the sensitive unclassified and classified categories and the markings required on reports are discussed and e.thibited in the  ;

following sections. All sensitive unclassified and classified reports are l

to be sent directly to the project manager. 1 B. OFFICIAL USE ONLY AND LIMITED OFFICIAL USE INFORMATION.

essential to ensure proper handling. Reports designated Official Use Only will contain only unclassified information originated by or furnished

, to an NRC contractor which is to be withheld from public disclosure. The report on which the marking appears must be reviewed at the time a request for release is received to determine its releasability. The Official Use Only marking is notice of the originator's determination of the applica-bility of an exemption under the Freedom of Information Act or Privacy Act or both at the time of origination.

Official Use Only NRC contractor reports shall be marked as shown in Exhibits 8 through 10.

Limited Official Use information is information originated by the U.S.

Department of State. A report originated by an NRC contractor that contains Limited Official Use information shall be marked as shown in Exhibits 11 through 13.

Procedures for reproducing, transmitting, protecting, and handling reports containing Official Use Only and Limited Official Use information and removing such reports from those categories are detailed in NRC Appendix 2101.

C. PROPRIETARY INFORMATION Proprietary information is a specific type of Official Use Only informa- s tion . Proprietary information includes:  :)

1. trade secrets.
2. privileged or confidential research, development , commercial or financial information exempt from mandatory disclosure under 10 CFR Part 2, " Rules of Practice for Domestic Licensing Proceed-ings," Sections 2.740 and 2.790 and under 10 CFR Part 9, "Public Records," Section 9.5, " Exemptions."
3. information submitted in confidence to NRC by a foreign sou rce ,

which has been determined by NRC to be unclassified.

Unclassified NRC contractor reports containing proprietary information shall be marked as shown in Exhibits 14 through 18. In each instance, the optional wording that describes the material being presented should be selected.

If a report contains both Official Use Only information and proprietary information , the front cover shall be marked as proprietary information and may also be marked as Official Use Only- information, if necessary.

, Pages in the report that contain proprietary information may be marked accordingly , including, marginal or other indicators of the specific wording that is proprietary. Similarily, the pages that contain Official Use Only information without proprietary information may be marked Official Use Only Approved: August 29, 1984 30

A cover sheet i (Exhibit 19) is to be placed on each hard copy of a report containing ,

proprietary information. '

(

D. SAFEGUARDS INFORMATION Safeguards information may be of three types: (1) classified informa-i tion , which is marked and handled as indicated in Section E, (2) un-j classified information restricted under Section 147 of the Atomic Energy 4 Act, which is marked and handled as described in this Section, and (3) unclassified information , which is publicly available and handled as j indicated in Parts I through IV.

! The safeguards information that is to be protected as described here is unclassn ied information used in a report which specifically identifies j certain licensee's or applicant's detailed:

1. security measures for the physical protection of special nuclear l

material

2. security measures for the physical protection and location of certain plant equipment vital to the safety of production or utilization f acilities .

)

4 Unclassified NRC contractor reports containing safeguards information -

that is to be protected shall be marked as shown in Exhibits 20 through

22.

Procedures for reproducing, transmitting, protecting, and handling safe-i guards information reports and removing them from the safeguards information category are detailed in NRC Appendix 2101. A cover sheet (Exhibit 23) is to be placed on each hard copy of a report containing safeguards information.

E. CLASSIFIED INFORMATION Classified information is limited to Restricted Data, Formerly Restricted Data and National Security Information . The procedures for making classification determinations and for marking, reproducing, transmitting, protecting, and handling reports containing classified information and removing such reports from classified categories are detailed in NRC

. Appendix 2101. These procedures are too complex for summarizing here.

l Classification determinations regarding NRC information may be made solely by authorized classifiers designated by NRC or DOE. Authorized ,

classifiers are responsible for insuring that reports they determine to '

i be classified are marked and protected in accordance with the provisions

! ,, of NRC Appendix 2101.

, PROGRAMS WITH FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS AND ORGANIZATIONS AND WITH U.S. INDUSTRY The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has requested that its Program Offices establish, to the extent feasible, cooperative nuclear safety research programs that involve either or both U.S. industry and foreign governments and orga-nizations . Such involvement includes monetary contributions , information exchange, and comments on program plans and results. This is authorized in 42 U.S.C. 5801. To this end, international and U.S. industry agreements have been signed that provide for transmitting unclassified information from NRC to participants. These procedures apply only to NRC-managed work not programatically funded by DOE. The interests of all NRC cooperative nuclear safety research program partici-pants are served best by early, rapid dissemination for comment of informa-tion on these programs developed for NRC by NRC contractors. This can be accomplished by distribution of " Draft Preliminary Reports (or Codes)" for

     ,        comment for a specified period of time, followed by issue as formal NUREG/CR

(( reports, with the concurrence of the participants. Specific procedures for accomplishing these goals and for transmitting information prepared by the NRC and DOE facilities and contractors and their subcontractors working on ' these programs are presented in the following sections.
