Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 228 / Wednesday, November 25, 2020 / Notices 75383 

7The NRC staff will review this statement of 

interest for the limited purpose of determining 

whether to initiate the requested background check. 

The NRC staff will review the statement of interest 

only to confirm that there is some description of 

why the potential party’s interest could be affected. 

A positive determination by the NRC staff is not a 

conclusion that the potential party has met the 

requirements for standing under 10 CFR 2.309. 

8The requestor may wish to defer this inspection 

to a later time, but if the NRC staff decides that an 

inspection is necessary to confirm that the 

requestor’s information protection system is 

sufficient, this inspection must be conducted before 

SGI is provided to the requestor. However, the 

requestor may opt to view SGI at an approved SGI 

storage location rather than establish its own SGI 

protection program to meet SGI protection 

requirements. 

9 If a background check has been initiated using 

the pre-clearance process and the NRC staff has 

made a final adverse determination, the requestor 

should timely appeal that determination if it 

intends to pursue its request for access; the staff 

will rely on that determination and will not initiate 

a second background check if the requestor submits 

the complete access request described in the notice 

of intended operation. 

SF–85 is completed electronically 

through a secure website that is owned 

and operated by the DCSA. 

(2) A check or money order payable 

in the amount of $326.00 to the U.S. 

Nuclear Regulatory Commission for 

each individual for whom a background 

check is being requested. 

(3) Background Check Request Letter: 

The background check request letter 

must: 

(a) Request initiation of a background 

check for the purpose of determining 

trustworthiness and reliability for access 

to SGI that may be relevant to the 

upcoming ITAAC proceeding for VEGP 

Unit 4. 

(b) Provide the name and address of 

the potential party and a description of 

the potential party’s particularized 

interest that could be harmed by an NRC 

finding that the acceptance criteria in 

the combined license are met.7

(c) Identify each individual for whom 

access to SGI will be requested, 

including the identity of any expert, 

consultant, or assistant who will aid the 

petitioner in evaluating the SGI. 

(d) If the requestor or any individual 

for whom access to SGI will be 

requested believes they belong to one or 

more of the categories of individuals 

that are exempt from the criminal 

history records check and background 

check requirements in 10 CFR 73.59, the 

requestor should provide a statement 

identifying which exemption the person 

is invoking and explaining the person’s 

basis for believing that the exemption 

applies. While processing the request, 

the Office of Administration will make 

a final determination on whether the 

claimed exemption applies. 

Alternatively, the requestor may contact 

the Office of Administration for an 

evaluation of the person’s exemption 

status prior to submission of the 

background check request. Persons who 

are exempt from the background check 

are not required to submit the forms and 

fee described in Sections II.C.(1) and 

II.C.(2) of this notice; however, all other 

requirements for access to SGI, 

including need to know, still apply. 

(e) State that the completed forms and 

fee described in Sections II.C.(1) and 

II.C.(2) of this notice have been 

submitted for each individual for whom 

access to SGI will be requested (except 

for those exempted by 10 CFR 73.59). 

(4) To avoid delays in processing 

background check requests, the 

requestor should review all submitted 

materials for completeness and accuracy 

(including legibility) before submitting 

them to the NRC. The NRC will return 

incomplete packages to the sender 

without processing. 

D. Results of Background Check. 

(1) If the background check results in 

a favorable trustworthiness and 

reliability determination, the NRC staff 

will so notify the requestor. In its 

discretion, the responsible NRC staff 

may proceed at that time with an 

inspection of the requestor’s 

information protection system to 

confirm it is sufficient to protect SGI 

from inadvertent release or disclosure.8

Once the notice of intended operation is 

published, an associated request for 

access to specified SGI will still need to 

address the other requirements for 

access, in accordance with the 

requirements in the notice of intended 

operation. 

(2) If the background check results in 

an adverse trustworthiness and 

reliability determination, the NRC staff 

will so notify the requestor with a brief 

statement of the reasons for denial. 

(a) Before the Office of Administration 

makes a final adverse determination, the 

individual against whom the adverse 

determination has been made must be 

provided an opportunity to correct or 

explain information. Specifically, the 

Office of Administration will (i) provide 

to the individual any records, including 

those required to be provided under 10 

CFR 73.57(e)(1), that were considered in 

the trustworthiness and reliability 

determination; and (ii) resolve any 

challenge by the individual to the 

completeness or accuracy of these 

records. The individual may make this 

challenge by submitting information 

and/or an explanation to the Office of 

Administration within 10 days of the 

distribution of the records described 

previously. 

(b) The requestor may challenge a 

final adverse determination by 

submitting a request for review of the 

adverse determination to the Chief 

Administrative Judge of the Atomic 

Safety and Licensing Board Panel 

(ASLBP) in accordance with 10 CFR 

2.336(f)(1)(iv) and by the method 

described in the final adverse 

determination. Because a final adverse 

determination is sufficient grounds for 

denying a subsequent request for SGI 

access submitted after the notice of 

intended operation is published, the 

requestor should not wait until a 

subsequent denial to appeal the adverse 

trustworthiness and reliability 

determination. 

(3) If the notice of intended operation 

is published while the background 

check is in progress or while an appeal 

of an adverse determination is pending, 

the petitioner should still submit the 

other components of its request for 

access consistent with the requirements 

set forth in the notice of intended 

operation. Those elements of the access 

determination will be handled in 

accordance with the procedures and 

timelines in the notice of intended 

operation. The petitioner’s submission 

of its request need not repeat the 

information already submitted 

specifically for the background check— 

it may simply reference the preclearance background check request— 

but it must provide all other information 

requested in the notice of intended 

operation.9 To avoid confusion, 

however, the submission should 

identify the petitioner’s contact 

information, the agency action, and the 

notice of intended operation.
