representatives to initiate a separate and expeditious review of the exemption

requests.

Typically, DOE nuclear safety requirements state that implementation plans are

considered approved 180 (or 90 days) days after submittal, unless they are

approved or rejected by DOE at an earlier date. This does not apply to

exemptions. Approval of implementation plans containing requests for

exemption are conditional pending approval of the exemption request. If the

exemption requests are subsequently disapproved, the implementing

organization shall amend the implementation plan and submit the revised plan

for approval within the time period specified in the letter transmitting the

disapproval determination. If no time period is specified, the implementing

organization shall revise and submit the implementation plan for approval within

90 days of receipt of the rejection of the exemption request.

Conditional approval of an implementation plan does not constitute or imply

approval of the exemptions contained therein.

5.2 Distribution of Copies of the Final Implementation Plan. The

Operations Office Manager is responsible for distributing approved plans to the

implementing organization (if changed from the originally submittal plan), the

Office of the Docketing Clerk (in the Office of Enforcement) in the Office of

Environment, Safety, and Health and to the affected CSOs. Copies of approved

plans transmitted to the Office of Docketing Clerk shall include both a hard cover

copy and a software copy. The software copy shall be in IBM compatible

Wordperfect version 5.1 or above or in an ASCII file. As required by 10 CFR

Part 820, the Office of the Docketing Clerk will maintain a file of enforceable

actions based upon rule violations and noncompliance with implementation

plans.

5.3 Review Responsibilities. The Review Team shall determine if the

implementation plan provides an acceptable method to meet the requirements in

accordance with the direction provided by the Working Group in the

Implementation Plan Guide. The Review Team shall also determine if the plan

adequately addresses the elements discussed in Section 3 of this technical
