==Dear Mr. Pietrangelo:==

I am responding to your letter of September 25, 2009 to Gregory B. Jaczko, Chairman of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), requesting the NRC to conduct an expedited rulemaking to change the compliance date for specific requirements in Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 73, Physical Protection of Plants and Materials. By letter dated October 1, 2009, the NRC informed you that it treated your submission as a petition for rulemaking (PRM) under 10 CFR 2.802, Petition for Rulemaking and assigned it docket number PRM-73-14. Due to the exigent circumstances associated with your request, the agency did not publish a notice of receipt and request for public comment on PRM-73-14 in the Federal Register; instead the NRC gave immediate attention to your request and convened a petition review board on November 9, 2009.
As discussed further in the enclosed notice, which will be published in the Federal Register, the NRC is denying your request for expedited rulemaking. The NRC has concluded its evaluation of PRM-73-14; therefore, this PRM is considered closed.
Please direct any questions you may have regarding this matter to NRC staff member Timothy Reed, by phone at 301-415-1462 or by e-mail at Timothy.Reed@nrc.gov.
Sincerely,
                                                    /RA/
Annette L. Vietti-Cook
