SUBJECT:

PROPOSED RULEMAKING ACTIVITY PLAN Morris Bahadur 0 Fi PURPOSE:

The purpose of this Commission paper is to provide for Commission review the staff's proposed Rulemaking Activity Plan (RAP), (Attachment 2).

The RAP j

l includes descriptions of rules under the direction of the E00 that are currently actively being conducted and those that are being considered for i

future action. This process is intended to assure that the staff incorporates Commission policy input to contemplated rulemakings at an early stage of rule plan development, before significant resources are expended.

It further will provide a mechanism to determine whether previously initiated rules should continue, be redirected or be terminated.

Finally, the "Rulemaking Activity l

Plan" includes priorities for all ongoing and planned rules to allow effective allocation of resources in a manner consistent with Commission policy.

BACKGROUND:

r In a Commission Staff Requirement Memorandum (SRM) of April 7,1995' on the I

I status of ongoing regulatory reform initiatives, the Commission directed the j

staff to (1) establish a process to review and prioritize rulemaking efforts-on a contirling basis and (2) pay particular attention to how rulemaking efforts receive staff approval for initiation. The Commission asked that the staff identify all rulemakings currently under development or being contemplated and, based on safety benefit and cost, make a recommendation on j

the need for continuing the rulemaking process, and to submit this information CONTACT:
