Key Aspects of the Assessment Program
- Objective review of licensee performance
- "Action Matrix" identifies agency response commensurate with safety significance
- Increasing safety significance results in:
- Increased levels of inspection
- Involvement of higher levels of NRC and Licensee management
- Increased regulatory action
- Plant specific assessment information on NRC public web site:
- http://www.nrc.gov/NRR/ OVERSIGHT/AS S ES S/
