8/6/99 COMMENT RESOLUTION

. The Commission (with Chairman Dieus and Commissioners McGaffigan and Merrifield approving) has voted to approve the publication and implementation of the final revisions to 10 CFR Part 72 which serve to clarify the regulatory requirements imposed on. holders of, o'r

applicants for, a certificate of compliance under this Part. The Commission (with Commissioners Diaz and Merrifield disapproving) has not approved the extension of NRC

. requirements under Part 72,~ Subpart G, to contractors and subcontractors. Commissioner Diaz disapproved this rule because he believes licensees are responsible for assuring that their contractors and subcontractors are implementing adequate quality assurance programs and that the.NRC should not extend its regulatory reach into new areas beyond matters of adequate

. protection without al compelling safety benefit that justifies the costs to all. Commissioner Merrifield disapproved of the extension of regulatory requirements to contractors and subcontractors of certificate holders and licensees for reasons similar to those articulated by

Commissioner Diaz. However, Commissioner Merrifield approved of those changes related to

)

' certificate of cornpliance holders since he believes those changes represent clarifications to existing requirements and not an extension into new areas. Subsequently, the Commission approved portions of the final rule as noted in the Affirmation Session SRM issued on August 25, 1999.
