The revised panel charter establishes the purpose, objectives, and composition of the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS) Oversight Panel. The panel was established to ensure that the agencys actions to address the root cause and corrective actions, with respect to the unexpected steam generator tube degradation at SONGS, are clearly communicated and documented, and to provide a recommendation for either approval or denial of restart. The panel charter was revised to reflect changes in panel membership and minor editorial improvements.
