ACTION: Final rule.
SUMMARY
- The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)is amending its regulations concerning low-level waste shipment manifest information. The currently effective codified regulations (CFR) include a dualimplementation procedure that allows use of one of two manifesting procedures. The use of new manifesting requirements, which were promulgated on March 27,1995, became mandatory on March 1,1998. Therefore, this action is necessary to remove expired provisions from the ,egulations. An additional correction is being made to the scope section of this part to rectify an inadvertent change.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
+
Background
i.
The purpose of these amendments to 10 CFR Part 2'O are to: (1) issue technical-t . conforming changes to $$ 20.1009 and 20.2006 and appendix F; and (2) correct an inadvertent L
change made to $ 201002. The amendments are'necessary to restore the most current and L .. .
complete version of the section concerning the information collection requirements approved by '
u . the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and to remove informatioi. that refers to a time period that has now passed, and therefore is'no longer applicable. The final rule entitled " Low-Level Waste Shipment Manifest Information and Reporting" (60 FR 15649; March 27,1995) established a compliance period of almost 3 years before the use of the new manifesting requirements became mandatory. The mandatory effective date was March 1,1998. Until the rule became mandatory, the NRC permitted the continued use of manifest requirements that
? were in effect before March 27,1995. Therefore, Part 20 contains a dual implementation procedure that allows the use of either the old manifesting requirements or the new manifesting requirements. Because the use of the new requirements became mandatory on March 1,1998, reference to the previous manifesting requirements is inappropriate and might cause confusion to users. This amendment will simplify the appropriate sections of the CFR by removing the now
- - obsolete procedures.

The requirements in S 20.1009, "Information collection requirements: OMB approval,"
published as part of the final rule on March 27,1995, became effective on March 1,1998.
However, in between its promulgation on March 27,1995, and March 1,1998, other changes have been made to Part 20 that required corresponding changes to this section. Therefore, when the March 27,1995, rule became effective, it superseded approved changes to S 20.1009 made since March 27,1995. This final rule will update 6 20.1009 to restore the changes made to this section between March 27,1995 and March 1,1998.
Section 20.2006, " Transfer for disposal and manifests," is being revised to eliminate the option to use either appendix F or appendix G, eliminate reference to appendix F, and to require the use of appendix G, since appendix F is now obsolete.
Appendix F to Part 20, " Requirements for Low-Level Waste Transfer for Disposal at Land Disposal Facilities and Manifests,"is being entirely removed and appendix F will be noted as
" Reserved."
An additional amendment deals with an inadvertent change that was made to the scope section of Part 20 during the final rulemaking, " Criteria for the Release of Individuale Administered Radioactive Material"(62 FR 4132 dated 1/29/97). The inadvertent change to this section eliminated the proper reference to Part 36, " Licenses and Radiation Safety Requirements for Irradiators" and to S 76.60 dealing with certification of gaseous diffusion plants.

[- _ Because these amendments deal with agency organization, practice, and procedure, the i
notice'and comment provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act do not apply pursuant to 5 ,
U.S.C. 553(b)(A). The amendments will be effective 60 days after publication in the Federal 1
- Register.
l l Compatibility'of Agreement State Regulations j 1
I i
Under " Policy Statement on Adequacy and Compatibility of Agreement State Programs,"
approved by the Commission on June 30,1997, $ 20.2006 and appendix F are listed as compatibility category "B." Under compatibility category B, the program elements have significant direct transboundary implications that the State should adopt with essentially identical ,
j
. language. . Section 20.1009 is not applicable to the Agreement States. Section 20.1002 is listed l.
~ as compatibility category "D." Under compatibility category D, this section is not required for L l purposes of compatibility; however, if adopted by the State, should be compatible with NRC.
Environmental Impact: Categorical Exclusion L The Commission has determined that this final rule is the type of action described in categorical exclusion 10 CFR 51.22(c)(2). Therefore, neither an environmental impact statement nor an environmental assessment has been prepared for this final rule.

In accordance with the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Faimess Act of 1996, the NRC has determined that this action is not a major rule and has verified this determination with the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget.
