The Commission has approved publication of the Notice of Denial of Rulemaking Petition in the Federal Register, subject to the attached changes, and issuance of the proposed letter to the petitioner.

The staff should look for ways to use the information it has already gathered through the IPE and IPEEE program, as well as other risk-informed activities, to streamline and expedite the plant-specific consideration of SAMAs.
