Increased margins using improved analyses or designs Increased standardization Efficiency improvements reallocate NRC and industry resources to safety issues Address generic safety issues Examples:

GSI-191 BWR core stability

3 TR Value Proposition (continued)

Topical Reports increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the regulatory review process, which results in:

- Substantial manpower and budget reallocations

- Improving licensing predictability

- Improving licensing schedules Examples

- STAR (shutdown testing activity reduction)

- BWR containment overpressure protection

- Risk-informed topical reports in support of Tech Spec changes (surveillance intervals and completion times)

4 Validating the Value Proposition Topical reports are implemented by a high percentage of operating plants

- BWRVIP 100%

- Areva

~80%

- PWROG

~75%

For selected topical reports, develop estimates of the improvement in safety and/or efficiency
