SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Introduction
On August 6, 2024, the NRC granted an exemption in response to a
request submitted by Pacific Gas and Electric Company.
This exemption temporarily allows the licensee to deviate from
certain requirements of part 73 of title 10 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (10 CFR), ``Physical Protection of Plants and Materials,''
subpart T, ``Security Notifications, Reports, and Recordkeeping.'' In
support of its exemption request, the licensee agreed to effect site-
specific administrative controls that maintain the approach to
complying with 10 CFR part 73 in effect prior to the NRC's issuance of
a final rule, ``Enhanced Weapons, Firearms Background Checks, and
Security Event Notifications,'' which was published in the Federal
Register on March 14, 2023, and became effective on April 13, 2023 (88
FR 15864).
