The Contractor ft:ther agrees to pro-vide such reports to such local office regarding employment openings and hires as may be required.

State and local government agencies holding Federal contracts of $10,000 or more shall also list all their suitable openings with the appropriate office of the State employment service, but are not required to provide those reports set forth in para-graphs (d) and (e).

(c) Listing of cuployment openings with the employment service system pursuant to this clause shall be made at least concurrently with the use of any other recruitment source or effort and shall involve the normal obligations which attach to the placing of a bona fide job order, including the acceptance of referrals of veterans and non-veterans.

The listing of employment openings does not require the hiring of any particular job applicant or from any particular group of job applicants, and nothing herein is intendad to elieve the Contractor from any requirements in "tecutive orders or regulations regarding nondiscrimination in employment.

(d) The reports required by paragraph (b) of this clause shall Anelude, but not be limited to, periodic reports which shall'be filed at least quarterly with the appro-priate local office or, where the Contractor has more than one hiring location in a State, with the central of fice of that Star.e employment service.

(e) Whenever the Contractor becomes contractually bound to the listing provisions of this clause, it shall advise the employment service system in each State where it has establishments of the name and location of each hiring location in the State. As long as the Contractor is_ contractually bound to these provisions and has so advised the State system, there is no need to advise the State system of subsequent contracts.

The Contractor may advise the State system when it is no longer bound by this contract clause.

(f) This clause does not apply to the listing of employment openings which occur and are filled outside the 50 States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Virgin Islands.

Under the most compelling circumstances an employment opening may not be suitable for listing, including such situations where the needs of the Government cannot reasonably be otherwise supplied, where listing would be contrary to national security, or where the requirement of listing would otherwise not be for the best interest of the Governm nt.

FINDINGS AND DETERMINATIONS Under Section 302(c)(10) of the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949, as Amended I Upon the basis of the following findings and determination, the proposed contract described below may be negotiated without formal advertising pursuant to the authority of 41 U.S.C. 252(c)(10) as implemented by FPR 1-3.202.

Findings 1.- The Nuclear Regulatory Comission proposes to procure by negotiation from the state of Pennsylvania services for measuring concentrations of radioactivity and radiation levels in the environment of Consnission licensed act' ities within the et ate and selected by the Commiss',.

2. Such environmental monitoring shall be accomplished by state employees

. collection of environmental samples which are split with the reactor licensee or closely duplicate samples collected by the licensee.

The state shall then analyze such samples for radionuclide activity and provide the NRC with an annual report for three years which intercompares their results with those of the licensees.

3. Such effort will result in a cooperative program between the NRC and the state. Failure to formalize such program may well result in the states withdrawal from acceptance of a formal agreement.

Were this to happen, the Government would have to contract out the work that the state would have done or increase its own staff to accomplish such work. In either case, the cost to the Government would most likely increase significantly. It is, therefore,_ essential that work commence immediately.

Determination Based on the foregoing findings, I hereby determine that:

1. The use of a negotiated contract, without the formal advertising,

-is justified because the public exigency will not permit the delay incident to formal advertising.
