Dear Dr. Parks:
SUBJECT:
DRAFT PROPOSED 10 CFR PART 70 AND ASSOCIATED STANDARD REVIEW PLAN Thank you for providing comments on the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff's draft revisions to 10 CFR Part 70 and the associated standard review plan (SRP). Since issuance of the draft revisions, the Commission has directed the NRC staff to discuss all relevant documents with stakeholders and to submit a revised proposed rulemaking package in May 1999. (Once the Commission approves a rule for publication as a proposed rule, the stakeholders and public will again have an opportunity for formal comment.) Since September 1998, we hava held two public meetings and have established a Part 70 website.
The website contains a library of documents related to the rulemaking and allows comments to be submitted online (http://techconf.llnl.aov/cai-bin /messaaes7 dom lic). Your December 1, 1998 letter has been posted on the website.
NRC will be holding a public meeting on January 13 - 14,1999, that specifically deals with the nuclear criticality safety aspects of the draft rule and SRP, including the issues raised in your letter. We have already begun the process of revising the rule language and hsve posted some of the revised sections on the website. NRC plans to post updated revisions of the proposed rule and the SRP for nuclear criticality safety on the website. To facilitate completion of the proposed nJtemaking package by May 1999, we intend to resolve the specific issues, including those raised in your letter, as part of the overall, interactive effort. I I
hope you are able to attend the January public meeting and would greatly appreciate your views on the material posted on the website.
Should you have any questions, please contact Mr. Andrew Persinko on (301) 415-6522.
