100 terminal emulation, the NRC

rulemaking subsystem can then be

accessed by selecting the ‘‘rules menu’’

option from the ‘‘NRC main menu.’’

Users will find the ‘‘FedWorld On-line

User’s Guides’’ particularly helpful.

Many NRC subsystems and data bases

also have a ‘‘Help/Information Center’’

option that is tailored to the particular

subsystem.

The NRC subsystem on FedWorld also

FedWorld BBS, (703) 321–3339, or by

using Telnet via Internet: fedworld.gov.

If using (703) 321–3339 to contact

FedWorld, the NRC subsystem will be

accessed from the main FedWorld menu

by selecting the ‘‘Regulatory,

Government Administration and State

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

Currently, subject to certain

restrictions, any person who holds a

specific license from an Agreement

State may conduct activities permitted

by that license in non-Agreement States

and offshore waters using an NRC

general license. The general license is

granted under the authority contained

in 10 CFR 150.20, ‘‘Recognition of

Agreement State Licenses.’’ To meet the

requirements of § 150.20, licensees must

submit an NRC Form 241 at least 3 days

before engaging in the activities (subject

to some exceptions as noted in

§ 150.20). If an Agreement State licensee

does not qualify for a general license

under § 150.20, the licensee must apply

for and obtain a specific license to work

in areas of NRC jurisdiction.

Need for Proposed Regulatory Action

The NRC believes that there are

several problems with the current

regulations in § 150.20 that necessitate a

rulemaking. First, the current regulation

does not include provisions to allow

Agreement State licensees to qualify for

an NRC general license when operating

in areas of exclusive Federal jurisdiction

within Agreement States. Second, there

has been some confusion regarding the

NRC regulations applicable to

Agreement State licensees operating in

areas of NRC jurisdiction pursuant to

§ 150.20. Third, § 150.20 does not

reference the appropriate fee

requirements applicable to Agreement

State licensees who file an NRC Form

241. Finally, there has been some

confusion regarding the filing

procedures for an NRC Form 241.
30840 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 118 / Tuesday, June 18, 1996 / Proposed Rules

Proposed Regulatory Action

Exclusive Federal Jurisdiction

The current wording of § 150.20 has

created confusion for Agreement State

licensees operating in areas of exclusive

Federal jurisdiction within Agreement

States. An area of exclusive Federal

jurisdiction is an area over which the

Federal Government exercises legal

control without interference from the

jurisdiction and administration of State

law. Areas of exclusive Federal

jurisdiction exist in both Agreement and

non-Agreement States. Because the

Federal Government has sole authority

over areas of exclusive Federal

jurisdiction in Agreement States, the

NRC has jurisdiction over Atomic

Energy Act activities conducted in those

areas. The notification procedures (use

of an NRC Form 241) regarding general

licenses for Agreement State licensees

seeking to operate in areas of NRC

jurisdiction (i.e., non-Agreement States

and offshore waters) are in § 150.20.

There is, however, no specific

provision in § 150.20 to indicate that the

NRC may grant reciprocity to Agreement

State licensees to conduct activities in

areas of exclusive Federal jurisdiction

within an Agreement State. The current

regulation only authorizes a general

license for activities conducted in nonAgreement States, whether or not in an

area of exclusive Federal jurisdiction

within that non-Agreement State, and

offshore waters. Despite the omission in

the regulation, the NRC staff, under

current practice, permits an Agreement

State licensee to operate in an area of

exclusive Federal jurisdiction within

the Agreement State if the licensee

submits an acceptable NRC Form 241.

The lack of a specific reference to

areas of exclusive Federal jurisdiction

has caused confusion for licensees,

Agreement States, and, occasionally, the

NRC staff in interpreting the coverage of

the reciprocity provisions in § 150.20.

To alleviate these concerns, this

rulemaking would amend § 150.20 to

provide a specific reference to areas of

exclusive Federal jurisdiction.

Regulatory Requirements Applicable to

§ 150.20 Licensees

The specific references to other NRC

regulatory requirements in § 150.20 also

constitute a source of confusion.

According to § 150.20(b), persons

operating under the general license

must comply with a variety of specific

NRC regulatory requirements. However,

§ 150.20 does not specifically reference

all NRC regulations that are applicable

to materials licensees. To alleviate any

potential confusion, the new § 150.20

would indicate clearly that licensees

operating pursuant to the rule’s

provisions must comply with all NRC

regulations applicable to materials

licensees.

This amendment would be consistent

with the original intent of the rule.

When originally issued in 1962 (27 FR

1351, February 14, 1962), § 150.20

required Agreement State licensees to

comply with ‘‘the appropriate

provisions of 10 CFR parts 20, 30, 31,

40, and 70’’ of the Commission’s

regulations. The rule required

compliance with all NRC regulations

applicable to NRC materials licensees at

that time. In 1965, many of the

requirements in 10 CFR part 30 were

relocated to newly created regulatory

provisions in 10 CFR parts 32, 33, 34,

35, and 36 (30 FR 8185, June 26, 1965).

A conforming amendment to § 150.20

was not made in response to this

change. Since 1965, specific

requirements have been added to

§ 150.20 that may have created the

impression that certain NRC

requirements otherwise applicable to

materials licensees are not applicable to

general licensees under § 150.20. This is

not the case. It is NRC’s position that

Agreement State licensees operating in

areas of NRC jurisdiction pursuant to

§ 150.20 must comply with those

regulations applicable to NRC licensees.

This proposed amendment would

clarify the applicable requirements.

Fees Imposed on Agreement State

Licensees Operating Under Reciprocity

The proposed amendment would add

appropriate references to § 150.20

regarding the relevant fee requirements

in 10 CFR part 170. The fee schedule in

10 CFR part 170 was updated to indicate

that there will be a charge for licensee

revisions to an NRC Form 241 in

addition to the initial filing fee. A

clarification to an NRC Form 241 does

not require a fee. Specific definitions for

a revision versus a clarification will be

provided in the instructions to the NRC

Form 241.

In addition, this proposed amendment

would involve a minor conforming

change to the schedule for materials fees

in § 170.31, ‘‘Schedule of Fees for

Materials Licenses and Other Regulatory

Services, Including Inspections, and

Import and Export Licenses,’’ to clarify

that the fee requirement applies to

activities conducted under reciprocity

pursuant to § 150.20 regardless of the

location of the activities.

Filing Procedures

The proposed amendment would also

clarify the procedures for filing an NRC

Form 241 for reciprocity described in

§ 150.20(b). The clarifications include

identifying what needs to be submitted,

specifying the procedure to use when an

emergency filing is necessary, making

revisions to the initial filing, and for

radiography licensees, emphasizing the

need for a transportation quality

assurance program. These clarifications

will not impose any additional

requirements on the Agreement State

licensee.

Compatibility of Agreement State

Regulations

The provisions in § 150.20 would

continue to be a Division 1 matter of

compatibility. The Commission is

currently developing implementing

procedures for a new Adequacy and

Compatibility Policy that was approved

by the Commission on June 29, 1995.

The Commission expects that the

approach to these matters in the new

procedures will be consistent with the

approach discussed here.

Electronic Access

Comments may be submitted

electronically, in either ASCII text or

WordPerfect format (version 5.1 or

later), by calling the NRC Electronic

Bulletin Board (BBS) on FedWorld. The

bulletin board may be accessed using a

personal computer, a modem, and one

of the commonly available

communications software packages, or

directly via Internet. Background

documents on the rulemaking are also

available, as practical, for downloading

and viewing on the bulletin board.

If using a personal computer and

modem, the NRC rulemaking subsystem

on FedWorld can be accessed directly

by dialing the toll free number (800)

303–9672. Communication software

parameters should be set as follows:

parity to none, data bits to 8, and stop

bits to 1 (N,8,1). Using ANSI or VT–100

terminal emulation, the NRC

rulemaking subsystem can then be

accessed by selecting the ‘‘Rules Menu’’

option from the ‘‘NRC Main Menu.’’

Users will find the ‘‘FedWorld Online

User’s Guides’’ particularly helpful.

Many NRC subsystems and data bases

also have a ‘‘Help/Information Center’’

option that is tailored to the particular

subsystem.

The NRC subsystem on FedWorld can

also be accessed by a direct dial phone

number for the main FedWorld BBS,

(703) 321–3339, or by using Telnet via

Internet: fedworld.gov. If using (703)

321–3339 to contact FedWorld, the NRC

subsystem will be accessed from the

main FedWorld menu by selecting the

‘‘Regulatory, Government

Administration and State Systems,’’

then selecting ‘‘Regulatory Information

Mall.’’ At that point, a menu will be
Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 118 / Tuesday, June 18, 1996 / Proposed Rules 30841

displayed that has an option ‘‘U.S.

Nuclear Regulatory Commission’’ that

will take you to the NRC Online main

menu. The NRC Online area also can be

accessed directly by typing ‘‘/go nrc’’ at

a FedWorld command line. If you access

NRC from FedWorld’s main menu, you

may return to FedWorld by selecting the

‘‘Return to FedWorld’’ option from the

NRC Online Main Menu. However, if

you access NRC at FedWorld by using

NRC’s toll-free number, you will have

full access to all NRC systems, but you

will not have access to the main

FedWorld system.

If you contact FedWorld using Telnet,

you will see the NRC area and menus,

including the Rules Menu. Although

you will be able to download

documents and leave messages, you will

not be able to write comments or upload

files (comments). If you contact

FedWorld using FTP, all files can be

accessed and downloaded but uploads

are not allowed; all you will see is a list

of files without descriptions (normal

Gopher look). An index file listing all

files within a subdirectory, with

descriptions, is available. There is a 15-

minute time limit for FTP access.

Although FedWorld also can be

accessed through the World Wide Web,

like FTP, that mode only provides

access for downloading files and does

not display the NRC Rules Menu.

Environmental Impact: Categorical

Exclusion

The Commission has determined that

this proposed regulation is the type of

action described as a categorical

exclusion in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(1).

Therefore, neither an environmental

impact statement nor an environmental

assessment has been prepared for this

proposed regulation.

Paperwork Reduction Act Statement

This proposed rule does not contain

a new or amended information

collection requirement subject to the

Paper Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.

3501 et seq.). Existing requirements

were approved by the Office of

Management and Budget, approval

number 3150–0032.

Public Protection Notification

The NRC may not conduct or sponsor,

and a person is not required to respond

to, a collection of information unless it

displays a currently valid OMB control

number.

Regulatory Analysis

This rulemaking would not impose

any new requirements or additional

costs to licensees because the

rulemaking would codify current

practice that allows Agreement State

licensees to work under an NRC general

license. Because the rulemaking would

improve the clarity and consistency of

the NRC’s regulations, it could benefit

Agreement State licensees operating in

areas of exclusive Federal jurisdiction.

Implementation of this rule should

result in a minor reduction in NRC

resources (estimated to be one-sixth of

a staff year per year) continually being

expended to explain our fee schedule

and to clarify for licensees and

Agreement States the conditions under

which an Agreement State licensee can

operate within an area of exclusive

Federal jurisdiction. Because NRC

resources to amend § 150.20 are

estimated to be about one-half of a staff

year, this is a cost effective one-time use

of resources. This constitutes the

regulatory analysis for this proposed

rule.

Regulatory Flexibility Certification

As required by the Regulatory

Flexibility Act of 1980, 5 U.S.C. 605(b),

the Commission certifies that this rule,

if adopted, will not have a significant

economic impact upon a substantial

number of small entities.

The rulemaking would not impose

any new requirements or additional

costs to licensees because the

rulemaking would codify current

practice that allows Agreement State

licensees to work under an NRC general

license. Because this proposed

rulemaking would improve the clarity

and consistency of NRC’s regulations, it

could benefit Agreement State licensees

operating in areas of exclusive Federal

jurisdiction.

Any small entity subject to this

regulation which determines that,

because of its size, it is likely to bear a

disproportionate adverse economic

impact should notify the Commission of

this in a comment that indicates the

following:

(a) The licensee’s size and how the

proposed regulation would result in a

significant economic burden upon the

licensee as compared to the economic

burden on a larger licensee.

(b) How the proposed regulations

could be modified to take into account

the licensee’s differing needs or

capabilities.

(c) The benefits that would accrue, or

the detriments that would be avoided, if

the proposed regulations were modified

as suggested by the licensee.

(d) How the proposed regulation, as

modified, would more closely equalize

the impact of regulations or create more

equal access to the benefits of Federal

programs as opposed to providing

special advantages to any individual or

group.

(e) How the proposed regulation, as

modified, would still adequately protect

public health and safety.

Backfit Analysis

The NRC has determined that the

backfit rule, 10 CFR 50.109, does not

apply to this proposed rule, and

therefore, a backfit analysis is not

required, because these amendments do

not involve any provisions that would

impose backfits as defined in 10 CFR

50.109(a)(1).

copies of its Agreement State specific

license, and the appropriate fee as

prescribed in § 170.31 of this chapter

with the Regional Administrator of the

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission

Regional Office listed on the NRC Form

241 and in appendix D of part 20 of this

chapter for the Region in which the

Agreement State that issued the license

is located. If an acceptable method for

filing 3 days before engaging in

activities under reciprocity is not

available to the licensee, because of an

emergency or other reasons, the

Regional Administrator may waive the

3-day time requirement provided the

Agreement State licensee informs the

Region by telephone, facsimile, an NRC

Form 241, or letter of initial activities or

revisions to the information submitted

on the initial NRC Form 241, receives

oral or written authorization for the

activity from the Region, and files an

NRC Form 241, 4 copies of the

Agreement State license, and the fee

payment within 3 days after the

notification.

(2) Licensees that seek changes in
