Sec. 9.60  Acknowledgement of requests.

    (a) Written requests by individuals to verify the existence of, 
obtain access to or correct or amend records about themselves maintained 
by NRC in a system of records subject to the provisions of the Privacy 
Act of 1974, shall be acknowledged in writing by the Freedom of 
Information Act and Privacy Act Officer within ten working days after 
date of actual receipt. The acknowledgement shall advise the requestor 
if any additional information is needed to process the request. Wherever 
practicable, the acknowledgement shall notify the individual whether his 
request to obtain access to the record or to correct or amend the record 
has been granted or denied.
    (b) When an individual requests access to records or permission to 
correct or amend records in person, every effort will be made to make an 
immediate determination as to whether access or correction or amendment 
should be granted. If an immediate determination cannot be made, the 
request will be processed in the same manner as a written request. 
Records will be made available for immediate inspection whenever 
possible.
