          3              CHAIRMAN MESERVE:  Good morning.  Why don't we get

          4    underway.  We have three items that we need to deal with

          5    first in an affirmation session.

          6              Madam Secretary, could you proceed?

          7              SECRETARY COOK:  The Commission is being asked to

          8    act on a final rule amending 10 CFR Parts 2 and 50 to

          9    clarify its regulations to no longer require antitrust

         10    information as part of a post-operating license transfer

         11    application, since the Commission is not authorized to

         12    conduct antitrust reviews of post-operating license transfer

         13    applications.

         14              The Commission has voted to approve the

         15    publication and implementation of this final rule, subject

         16    to the attached changes.

         17              Would you please affirm your votes?

         18              [Chorus of ayes.]

         19              SECRETARY COOK:  The Commission is being asked to

         20    act on an order dismissing proceedings related to the

         21    license transfer application at Nine Mile Point.  The

         22    Commission has voted to approve an order which dismisses

         23    these proceedings as moot, based on the Applicant's

         24    withdrawal of their license transfer application.

         25              Would you please affirm your vote?

                                                                       4

          1              [Chorus of ayes.]

          2              SECRETARY COOK:  The Commission is being asked to

          3    act on a memorandum and order which refers Graystar's

          4    request for a hearing on the NRC staff denial of Graystar's

          5    application to register the Model GS42 sealed source and

          6    Model 1 irradiator to the Chief Judge of the Atomic Safety

          7    and Licensing Board panel.

          8              The Commission has voted to approve a memorandum

          9    and order which refers Graystar's request for a hearing to

         10    the Chief Judge of the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board

         11    panel and directs the Chief Judge to initiate a Subpart L

         12    hearing process.

         13              Would you please affirm your votes?

         14              [Chorus of ayes.]

         15              SECRETARY COOK:  That's all I have.

         16              CHAIRMAN MESERVE:  Thank you very much, Madam

         17    Secretary.  

         18              [Whereupon, at 9:32 a.m., the affirmation session

         19    was concluded.]
