## Abstract

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is amending its regulations to reflect changes regarding officials who initially deny access to records or deny access to records whose initial denial has been appealed, and to reflect a change of an appellate official due to a reorganization. This amendment authorizes the Executive Assistant to the Secretary of the Commission, rather than the Assistant Secretary, to make the initial determination to deny NRC records, in whole or in part, under the NRC's regulations. An appeal of a denial of request for waiver or reduction of fees, or denial of a request for expedited processing is made to the Executive Director for Operations, rather than the Secretary of the Commission. The final rule establishes NRC procedures to give predisclosure notification to submitters of confidential business or commercial information, and makes a number of additional clarifying and conforming amendments.
