NRC Performance Goals l Maintain safety and protect the environment l Enhance public confidence l Improve effectiveness, efficiency, and realism of processes and decision making

  • Reduce unnecessary regulatory burden

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

Examples of Baseline Inspections l Equipment Alignment ~92 hrs/yr l Triennial Fire Protection ~200 hrs every 3 yrs l Operator Response ~125 hrs/yr l Emergency Preparedness ~80 hrs/yr l Rad Release Controls ~100 hrs every 2 yrs l Worker Radiation Protection ~100 hrs/yr l Corrective Action Program ~200 hrs every 2 yrs l Corrective Action Case Reviews ~60 hrs/yr

Significance Threshold Performance Indicators Green: Only Baseline Inspection White: May increase NRC oversight Yellow: Requires more NRC oversight Red: Requires more NRC oversight Inspection Findings Green: Very Low safety issue White: Low to moderate safety issue Yellow: Substantial safety issue Red: High safety issue

Action Matrix Concept Licensee Regulatory Degraded Multiple/Rep. Unacceptable Response Response Cornerstone Degraded Performance Cornerstone Increasing Safety Significance Increasing NRC Inspection Efforts Increasing NRC/Licensee Management Involvement Increasing Regulatory Actions

Purpose of Todays Meeting n A public forum for discussion of the licensees performance n NRC will address the licensee performance issues identified in the annual assessment letter n Licensee will respond to the information in the letter and inform the NRC of new or existing programs to maintain or improve their performance
