Dear Mr. President:

1 Pursuant to Subtitle E of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Faimess Act of 1996, j

S U.S.C 801 (Act), the Nuclear Regulatory Commission is submitting a revision of the NRC's i

Enforcement Policy. This revision makes adjustments to the Policy approved by the Commission based on a review of our experience in the two years since the previous major revision. This revision also incorporates the changes to the Policy that were previously

{

published in the Federal Register since July 1995.

1 We have determined that this action (interpreted as a " rule" under the Act) is not a " major rule" as defined in 5 U.S.C. 804(2). This determination was made under a generic approval by the Office of Management and Budget for this type of action.

Enclosed is a copy of the final action, which has been transmitted for publication in the Federal l
