[NUREG-1600]


Proposed Revision of the NRC Enforcement Policy

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

ACTION: Policy Statement: notification of proposed revision.

SUMMARY: The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is considering a
revision to its General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC

revision is available for review on the Office of Enforcement's
``Public Participation'' page of its website (http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/leaving.cgi?from=leavingFR.html&log=linklog&to=http://www.nrc.gov/OE/).

DATES: The proposed policy revision will be available for review until
April 22, 2001.
