THE AGENCY HAS
NOT YET ADDRESSED TWO OF THE CONCERNS RAISED IN OUR EARLIER
CONDITIONS OF CLEARANCE DATED 9/19/84, AND REITERATED IN OUR
CONDITIONS OF CLEARANCE DATED 11/21/84. FIRST, THE NEED AND PURPOSE
OF THE RECORD FOR SAFETY DEFECT RECORDS ARE NOT CLEAR IN THIS
SUBMISSION. OTHER APPROACHES, SUCH AS A CERTIFICATION, WOULD SEEM
TO MEET THE AGENCY'S NEEDS AND WOULD IMPOSE A LESSER BURDEN ON THE
PUBLIC SECOND, THE NEED AND PRACTICAL UTILITY OF INSPECTIONS OF
EQUIPMENT ON EACH SHIFT IS NOT CLEAR. WE HAVE THEREFORE RETAINED
THESE CONDITIONS OF CLEARANCE IN THIS APPROVAL THROUGH 3/87, BY
WHICH TIME THE AGENCY WILL HAVE COMPLETED FINAL RULEMAKING. WITH
THE SUBMISSION OF THE FINA RULE, WE WILL REVIEW THE AGENCY'S
RESPONSE TO THESE CONCERNS AS PROVIDED IN 5 CFR 1320.13(E) AND
(G).
