Annual Assessment Meeting Nuclear Regulatory Commission

NRC Performance Goals P Maintain safety and protect the environment P Enhance public confidence P Improve effectiveness, efficiency, and realism of processes and decision making P Reduce unnecessary regulatory burden

Reactor Oversight Process Strategic Performance Areas Safety Cornerstones Inspection Performance Indicator Results Results Significance Significance Threshold Threshold Action Matrix Regulatory Response

Key Aspects of the Assessment Program P Objective review of licensee performance P Action Matrix identifies agency response commensurate with safety significance P Increasing safety significance results in:

- Increased levels of inspection

- Involvement of higher levels of NRC and Licensee management

- Increased regulatory action P Plant specific assessment information on NRC public web site

Regional Organization Jim Dyer, Regional Administrator James Caldwell, Deputy Regional Administrator Jan Strasma, Regional Public Affairs Officer Division of Reactor Projects Division of Reactor Safety Geoffrey E. Grant, Director Cynthia Pederson, Director Steven Reynolds, Deputy Director Roy Caniano, Deputy Director Reactor Projects Branch 1 Regional Specialists Mark Ring, Chief Robert Lerch, Project Engineer Perry Resident Inspector Office Raymond Powell, Senior Resident Inspector John Ellegood, Resident Inspector

Annual Licensee Assessment Meeting P A public forum for discussion of the licensees performance P NRC will address the licensee performance issues identified in the Annual Assessment Letter P Licensee will respond to the information in the letter and inform the NRC of new or existing programs to maintain or improve their performance
