Vern,

While you are correct about this, the "guidelines" were never 
intended to be law (hence the term, guidelines).  The proposed 
amendment to 10 CFR 835 eliminates these guidelines from the rule and 
places them where they should be, in guidance documents.  I believe 
the amendment is expected to be made final this year.

Just FYI...

Greg
