NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
10 CFR Parts 1, 20, 30, 40, 70, and 73
RIN 3150-AF71
NRC Region II Telephone Number and Address Change
AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is amending its
regulations to change the address and telephone number of the NRC
Region II office. These amendments are necessary to inform the public
of these administrative changes to the NRC's regulations.
EFFECTIVE DATE: April 28, 1997.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jeffrey Lankford, Nuclear Regulatory
Commission, Region II, Atlanta, Georgia, (404) 331-4503.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 28, 1997, the NRC will move its
Region II office from 101 Marietta Street, NW., Suite 2900, Atlanta,
Georgia 30323 to Atlanta Federal Center, 61 Forsyth Street, SW., Suite
23T85, Atlanta, Georgia 30303. The telephone number will be changed
from (404) 331-4503 to (404) 562-4400.
Because this amendment deals with agency procedures, the notice and
comment provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act do not apply
pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(A). Good cause exists to dispense with the
usual 30-day delay in the effective date because the amendments are of
a minor and administrative nature dealing with a change in address and
telephone number.
Environmental Impact: Categorical Exclusion
The NRC has determined that this final rule is the type of action
described in categorical exclusion 10 CFR 51.22(c)(2). Therefore
neither an environmental impact statement nor an environmental
assessment has been prepared for this final rule.
Paperwork Reduction Act Statement
This final rule does not contain a new or amended information
collection requirement subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). Existing requirements were approved by the
Office of Management and Budget, approval numbers 3150-0014, 3150-0017,
3150-0020, 3150-0009, 3150-0002.
Public Protection Notification
The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, an information collection unless it displays a currently
valid OMB control number.
Regulatory Analysis
A regulatory analysis has not been prepared for this final rule
because it is an administrative action that changes the address and
telephone number of an NRC region.
Backfit Analysis
The NRC has determined that the backfit rule, 10 CFR 50.109, does
not apply to this final rule because this rule does not involve any
provisions that would impose a backfit as defined in Sec. 50.109(a)(1).
Therefore, a backfit analysis is not required for this rule.
