Dear Mr.- Chairman:

' ~

. 5.h.

~

At the end of FY 1978, the Nuclear Regulatory Comission had a carryover I) of $4.0M of unobligated and uncomitted funds, or approximately 2% of the

-2 FY 1978 obligational availability.

These funds resulted from a combination

'l of d,eobligation of prior year funds due to underruns on completed 3

contracts, programatic chsnges, and from actual obliga'tions on active

~#

contracts that were lower than originally estimated.

The Comission has

, identified the need to apply these carryover funds to priority unfunded ~

W requirements as shown in the enclosure' The items involved also represent

~

areas of specific Congressional interest as expressed in the Authorization r

Act for FY 1979 or legislative history. There is contractual urgency

-A associated with some of the items and we would appreciate your early a

consideration of them.

The planned application of the unobligated balances provides for some of

~

the Congressionally-directed initiatives.

NRC is currently performing an 3

agency-wide assessmant of its planned programs and their relative priorities

[

in an effort to determine an appropriate course of action for continuing support to Congressionally-directed -initiatives and on program requirements

-i that have evolved since our budget was sent to the Congress a year ago, i

NRC plans to compl.ete its assessment in the next few weeks and submit its

{

proposed reallocations to the appropriate Conmittees.
