ATTACHMENT 1—GENERAL TARGET SCHEDULE FOR PROCESSING AND RESOLVING REQUESTS FOR ACCESS TO SENSITIVE
UNCLASSIFIED NON-SAFEGUARDS INFORMATION (SUNSI) AND SAFEGUARDS INFORMATION (SGI) IN THIS PROCEEDING
Day
Event/activity
0 ..................
Publication of Federal Register notice of hearing and opportunity to petition for leave to intervene, including order with instructions for access requests.
Deadline for submitting requests for access to Sensitive Unclassified Non-Safeguards Information (SUNSI) and/or Safeguards Information (SGI) with information: supporting the standing of a potential party identified by name and address; describing the
need for the information in order for the potential party to participate meaningfully in an adjudicatory proceeding; demonstrating
that access should be granted (e.g., showing technical competence for access to SGI); and, for SGI, including application fee
for fingerprint/background check.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff informs the requester of the staff’s determination whether the request for access
provides a reasonable basis to believe standing can be established and shows (1) need for SUNSI or (2) need to know for
SGI. (For SUNSI, NRC staff also informs any party to the proceeding whose interest independent of the proceeding would be
harmed by the release of the information.) If NRC staff makes the finding of need for SUNSI and likelihood of standing, NRC
staff begins document processing (preparation of redactions or review of redacted documents). If NRC staff makes the finding
of need to know for SGI and likelihood of standing, NRC staff begins background check (including fingerprinting for a criminal
history records check), information processing (preparation of redactions or review of redacted documents), and readiness inspections.
If NRC staff finds no ‘‘need,’’ no ‘‘need to know,’’ or no likelihood of standing, the deadline for petitioner/requester to file a motion
seeking a ruling to reverse the NRC staff’s denial of access; NRC staff files copy of access determination with the presiding officer (or Chief Administrative Judge or other designated officer, as appropriate). If NRC staff finds ‘‘need’’ for SUNSI, the deadline for any party to the proceeding whose interest independent of the proceeding would be harmed by the release of the information to file a motion seeking a ruling to reverse the NRC staff’s grant of access.
Deadline for NRC staff reply to motions to reverse NRC staff determination(s).
(Receipt +30) If NRC staff finds standing and need for SUNSI, deadline for NRC staff to complete information processing and file
motion for Protective Order and draft Non-Disclosure Affidavit. Deadline for applicant/licensee to file Non-Disclosure Agreement
for SUNSI.
Deadline for submitting petition for intervention containing: (i) Demonstration of standing; (ii) all contentions whose formulation
does not require access to SUNSI and/or SGI (+25 Answers to petition for intervention; +7 petitioner/requestor reply).
(Receipt +180) If NRC staff finds standing, need to know for SGI, and trustworthiness and reliability, deadline for NRC staff to file
motion for Protective Order and draft Non-disclosure Affidavit (or to make a determination that the proposed recipient of SGI is
not trustworthy or reliable). Note: Before the Office of Administration makes an adverse determination regarding access to SGI,
the proposed recipient must be provided an opportunity to correct or explain information.
Deadline for petitioner to seek reversal of a final adverse NRC staff determination either before the presiding officer or another
designated officer.
If access granted: Issuance of presiding officer or other designated officer decision on motion for protective order for access to
sensitive information (including schedule for providing access and submission of contentions) or decision reversing a final adverse determination by the NRC staff.
Deadline for filing executed Non-Disclosure Affidavits. Access provided to SUNSI and/or SGI consistent with decision issuing the
protective order.
Deadline for submission of contentions whose development depends upon access to SUNSI and/or SGI. However, if more than
25 days remain between the petitioner’s receipt of (or access to) the information and the deadline for filing all other contentions
(as established in the notice of hearing or opportunity for hearing), the petitioner may file its SUNSI or SGI contentions by that
later deadline.
(Contention receipt +25) Answers to contentions whose development depends upon access to SUNSI and/or SGI.
(Answer receipt +7) Petitioner/Intervenor reply to answers.
Decision on contention admission.

On July 6,
2009, SBA published a notice in the
Federal Register announcing the
creation of the Dealer Floor Plan Pilot
Initiative. (74 FR 32006) The
announcement of this pilot initiative
generated a significant level of interest
among those small businesses and
lenders that traditionally utilize floor
plan financing. Given the scope of the
proposal and the nature of the issues
raised by the comments received to
date, SBA believes that affected parties
need more time to review the proposal
and prepare their comments. As a result,
SBA is re-opening the comment period
for an additional 45 days.
Questions on the Dealer Floor Plan
Pilot Initiative may be directed to the
Lender Relations Specialist in the local
SBA district office.
