{"abstract":"The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is requesting comment on a regulatory basis to support developing a rulemaking that would amend its regulations by adding a new class exemption from licensing and associated distribution requirements. This new class exemption would create a path for licensing current and future products that contain byproduct material incidental to their production. The rulemaking would resolve a petition for rulemaking (PRM), PRM-30-65, submitted by GE Osmonics, Inc. on April 18, 2011, requesting changes to the regulations to allow commercial distribution and redistribution of polycarbonate track etched membranes.","action":"Regulatory basis; request for comment.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION","name":"Nuclear Regulatory Commission","id":383,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/nuclear-regulatory-commission","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/383","parent_id":null,"slug":"nuclear-regulatory-commission"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2021/02/02/2021-02158.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":"30","title":10},{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":"32","title":10}],"citation":"86 FR 7819","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"2021-04-05","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Submit comments by April 5, 2021.
