CHAIRMAN. HENDRIE: Th~ room will please quiet --
the assembled multitude. I would like to ask my coll~agues to join me in holding a short not.ice _rn.eeting on an affirmation item.
CA chorus of ayes.)
CHAIRMAN HENDRIE: So ordered
- MR. CHILK: This is SECY-79-59-A, a proposed amendment to 10-CFR, Part 73.55, to extend the implem~ntation date for certain complementary and alternative measures for the **
protection against the insider threat *
-The purpose of the_paper would ext.end the time for implementation.of pat down searches unt 11 February 1, 1.980..
Four of you have voted to a pp rove that paper.
I have not heard from Commissioner Gilinsky.
I believe he proposed to abstain-.
COMMISSIONER GILINSKY: I would extend it for a
.brief interval~*
MR.. CHILK: Commiss.ioner Ahearne, in his approval, has suggested that the period be restricted to November 1st.
CO MMI SS !ONER AHEARNE: That was the only. grounds r voted to approved it.
MR.... CH ILK: I have three votes, then..
CHAIRMAN HENDRIE: What was the base date?*
.COMMISSIONER AHEARNE: Six months.
COMMISSIONER BRADFORD: Why don-'t you consider me to

be joining John at November 1st, and that way, th-ere would be three of us who don-'t think it ought to be any longer than that.
COMMISSIONER KENNEDY: We are just making substantive re-arrangements to the paper.
I would like to have further time to consider it since this is just an affirmation item~
MR. CHILK: If we don-'t act on_ this paper, then the pat down search becomes effective because it expires --
COMMISSIONER KENNEDY.: We.11, we-'re just violating our own ruleso We1 re supposed to come to the table and vote on the issue that is before us and not discuss it@ And here we I
are having discussion and making a fundamental change in what has been decidedo That is not an affirmationo COMMISSIONER GILINSKY: Well., we have done that*
before..
COMMISSIONER KENNEDY: No, by God, we haven'to MR *. CHILK: We really.haven-'t, except that this one came upon*us just at a particular moment in time.
All of you have been.in meetin~s all day tqday.
We did go into this meeting with three of you voting tb approvs the paper with the date that the paper calls for, February 8th, Commissioner' Ahearne saying November..
COMMI.SSI0NER GILINSKY: We_ll, we coul_d vote on a quick discussion.meeting.

CHAIRMAN HENDRIE: LetJ's go back and unaffirm it.
I.think we have to.act on it.
Those in favor of a short notice
.meeting to discuss the problem before us with the pat down search rule, will please say aye *.
- CA choru_s of ayes.)
CHAIRMAN HENDRIE: So ordered.
I _take it that the ~taff has asked for six ~onths.
MR. CHILK: The staff asked for six months.on the basis that you~ve got to ass~ss the hearing board recomm*endations.
You.J"ve just gotten a new paper on that and theY believe that it will take you several months to do that, following which they.J've got to put* in the implementat iono And that was their reason for seiecting February.
CHAIRMAN HENDRIE: Gentlemen, we can* m~ke it November if a majority want to go there.
But I think that that is a guaranteed extension because I don.J"t think that the
.commission, since.*the commission has to take an action on the
. clearahce rule, and since that is a somewhat difficult matter, it seems to me where I must say it is not clear to me where one goes from here on it.
I d6n.J"t think that theii is any possibility of clearing the pat *down search rule area by 1 November.
I would recommend the six months.. But* if those of you would l ik to keep-it on a short leash would continue to.prefer to do that, either whether you agree or disagree with me about an

apparent need to come back on November 1st.and extend in order to get action.
If a majority lies that way, I have no objection.
COMMISSIONER AHEARNE: My first preference, frankly, was for not extending it. But upon rereading it and sort of sem.i-reluctantly, or reluctantly going along w-ith an extension*,
I.believe that the three months was about as far *as I could realistically say that I co~ld goo But I would have no problem with not extending.it..
CHAIRMAN HENDRIE: Well, I don-'t know.
Do you remember the discussions about that?
COMMISSIONER AHEARNE: Yes.
CHAIRMAN HENDRIE: I don-'t know if that happened before you came..
COMMISSIONER AHEARNE:. WeJ.1 9 I have been to a lot of stuff on it..
CHAIRMAN. HENDRIE: All right.
I have a vote for November l st, wi 11-ingness to extend until No*vember_ f'sto Who else?
COMMISSIONER KENNEDY: I-'ve already voted.
CHAIRMAN HENDRIE: I will vote February 1st..
Vic?
. COMMiSSIONER GI LINSKY: November 1st.
COMMISSIONER BRADFORD: I wil 1 join John in November
-1st, with a request that, in fact, if it has not been dealt
~ith by then, give.us a little more warning.

MR. CHILK: Yes, I think the staff was late gatting it up.. I think we goofed in not inviting your attention to the fact that we d idn-'t pick this up i mmediafe ly o CHAIRMAN HENDRIE:* It came upon us all of a sudden here.
MR. CHILK: Nobody picked it up until last night~.
CHAIRMAN HENDRIE: Ail.right.
I will rul.e that a majority of the commission is willing to extend until November 1st.
Please-note that, if I may, Dick, that Commissioner*
Kennedy and I agree with the extension, but think that the originally requested staff mark of February 1st would have been mor.e appropriate.
COMMISSIONER BRADFORD: I would guess the November J st deadline would drive us toward at least an early *cut in September at th~ clearance rule procsdureQ CHAIRMAN HENDRIE: Yes. That.is one nf the things
-that weJv~ got to turn to after we get off the budgeto And
- also, as part of that, *why somebody, the counsel or semebody has to figure out some ways of getting from where we are now to wherever weJre going to goo.
I feit kind of defeated-by the complex.ity with which it ended..
Okay..
We have an.order to dE3al with the thing..
- Secretary will please issue it.
(Whereupon, at 5: 30 p.m., thE3 hearing adjourned.)
