March 24, 2014 MEMORANDUM TO: Stephen D. Dingbaum Assistant Inspector General for Audits FROM:
J. E. Dyer /RA/
Chief Financial Officer
SUBJECT:
STATUS OF RECOMMENDATIONS: AUDIT OF NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSIONS PROCESS FOR CALCULATING LICENSE FEES (OIG-13-A-02)
This is a status update in response to the Office of the Inspector Generals Audit Report, Audit of NRCs Process for Calculating License Fees (OIG-13-A-02) dated October 24, 2012.
Recommendation 1 The Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) should prepare and document an annual Fee Rule validation on the hourly rate (budget vs. cost analysis) and make adjustments as needed to the fee calculation process.
Status Agree. Pending adequate resources in FY 2014, and with FAIMIS assistance, we plan to execute this validation of the hourly rate by September 2014.
The OCFO staff plans to collaborate with the FAIMIS systems staff to evaluate procedures from the previous cost accounting system. Once the FAIMIS team has generated the reports needed, OCFO can develop new procedures for long term implementation of this recommendation.
Recommendation 4 The OCFO will prepare and complete detailed quality control license fee calculation checklists and document supervisory review and approval on the quality control checklists.
