Based on the outcome of NRR\\DRA Office Directors Decision, staff will complete remaining actions except update to RG 1.200 (Target: January 31st, 2020) 4
Activities to be completed prior to making Recommendation to NRR Office Director NRC receives an update to NEI 17-07 which will be suitable for staff review and potential endorsement with clarifications as necessary. That revision, when incorporated by reference to the alternative Tech Spec that NEI proposes, will require review of newly-developed methods using review requirements and definitions acceptable to NRC staff and provides a mechanism to communicate to the NRC staff the results of industry review of these methods. (Status Update: Almost done)
NRC receives a document, either from NEI or from the Owners Groups, that provides the key definitions as well as requirements which are sufficient to form the basis to demonstrate the acceptability of newly developed methods.
