DEC i S 1973 MEMORANCUM FOR:

M. Kehnemuyi, Assistant Director

i. for General Engineering Standards, SD

SUBJECT:

IEEE P466/D3 j

REF:

Your memo dated November 10, 1976 This note confirms a telecon with Al Hintze, SD.

t I believe that this paper proposes a radically new intermediate grade of instrument, between safety-grade and control-grade.

i I further believe that this is basically a good idea, long needed.

However, NRC review of such a step should be more than selected coments on an obscure definition in an IEEE draft.

SD and NRR at least nedd to develop NRC polic,v on the subject, reviewed at c

the appropriate management levels.

I strongly urged Al that for lack of such attention consistent i

with the P466 deadline, NRC should take the necessary time to do the job right, getting an extension of time from IEEE if possible.
