        <RULE_TITLE>Expand Applicability To Include Additional Parties</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rulemaking is intended to correct a weakness in section 72.11 by expanding its scope to include holders of and applicants for certificates of compliance; fabricators, designers, and vendors of casks; their employees; and the employees of their contractors, subcontractors, and consultants. The correction would clarify that they may be subject to enforcement action for submitting to the NRC information that is not complete and accurate in all material respects. Because of these limited specific requirements in part 72 for parties other than licensees, the Commission has been unable to issue notices of violation to other parties involved in ISFSI safety-related functions. The staff believes there may be safety consequences resulting from this weakness. The ability to issue notices of violation to these parties would improve the effectiveness of the NRC's inspection and enforcement programs in assuring compliance with the Commission's regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>
