NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
10 CFR Part 13
RIN 3150-AD71
Program Fraud Civil Remedies; Technical Amendment
AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
ACTION: Final rule: technical amendment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This document corrects a paragraph numbering error contained
in the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) regulations implementing the
Program Fraud Civil Remedies Act of 1986.
EFFECTIVE DATE: July 29, 1997.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Susan Fonner, Office of the General
Counsel, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001,
telephone (301) 415-1634.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As published, the NRC's Program Fraud
Civil Remedies regulations contain a numbering error in the
definition of ``Claim'' contained in 10 CFR 13.2. Paragraph (b)(3)
of the definition should have been numbered as paragraph (c). That
this was an inadvertent error is evident both from the internal
wording of the definition and from the definition of ``claim'' in
the Act contained at 31 U.S.C. 3801. The definition of ``claim'' in
the regulation is virtually identical to the definition in the Act,
except for this numbering error.
List of Subjects in 10 CFR Part 13
Claims, Fraud, Organization and function (government agencies),
Penalties.
Accordingly, 10 CFR part 13 is amended by making the following
corrective amendment.
