MS. VIETTI-COOK : The Commission is being asked to act on a final rule amending 10 CFR Part 2, Subpart G on availability of official records in three areas. The amendments: (1) require those who submit documents claimed to contain proprietary or other confidential information to specifically mark those portions of the document containing such information to decrease the chances of inadvertent public release of the information by the NRC; (2) codify NRC's practices and delineate the circumstances under which the agency will not return confidential documents that have been submitted to the NRC; and (3) codify NRC's practices of making as many copies of copyrighted material submitted to the agency as it needs to perform its regulatory and licensing functions.

The Commission has voted to approve the publication and implementation of this final rule subject to the changes attached. Could you please affirm your votes.

CHAIRMAN MESERVE: Aye

COMMISSIONER DICUS: Aye

COMMISSIONER DIAZ: Aye

COMMISSIONER MCGAFFIGAN: Aye
