Overview and Assumptions The Office of the Controller monitors the budget execution process throughout the year. Upon enactment of budget legislation, CON requests and receives an apportionment from OHB, then issues financial plans and allotments indicating Congressional thresholde, de adhered to, and subsequently reviews and acts upon proposed financial plan and allotment changes through the year.
In effect, therefore, mini-financial reviews take place throughout the year.
In addition, to date, two major FY 1880 financial review efforts have taken place. Upon completion of the first financial review in January, the Chairman requested that the Congress on March 7,1980 approve reprogramming of $3 million in FY 1979 unobligated funds carried over for use in FY 1980. The second pejor reprogramming effort is represented by the recently coupleted THI Action Plan (See SECY-80-230, dated May 2,1980).
As it relates to FY 1980, the staff proposal would result in a reorientation of about 107 manyears and 352 million.
Since funding sources are within major office funding levels, congressional reprogt. ming results in only a few instances.
Our Hid-Year Financial Review, summarized herein, utilizes obligations, commitments and costs experienced through March 31, 1980.
In conducting our revievi, we have utilized the Decision Unit Tracking System (DUTS) reports to associate planned accomplishments with resources expended as well as conferred with the Division of Contracts on the status a contracts.

Our review was significantly complicated by an unusa',1y large number of uncertainties. A discussion of the areas of uncertainty and our assumptions regarding them follows:
(1) Connission Approval of TMI Action Plan As noted above, significant shif ts in resources are proposed in the TMI Action Plan. Our Mid-Year Review has assumed Commission approval of all these resource shifts.
In this regard, the Commission has recently taken the approach of reviewing the plan over a series of several meetings'which are not anticipated to be concluded until mid-to-late June. To date, partial approval of the TMI Action Plan I
has been provided by the Connission.
(2) Congressional Ap9roval of FY 1980 Supplreental We have rece.:* 1y received the House Appropriations Committee mark up of the FY 1980 Supplemental request.
In sunnary, of c;r request of $49.2 million and 60 additional positions, the House allowed $32 million and 32 rasiiions. Although we are hopeful the Senate Appropriations Committee, which is anticipated to mark up..
"Y 8180 Supplemental in the very near future, will provide NRC with a larger portion of the requested resources, we have assumed for the Mid-Year Review that the House mark will prevail.
(3) Freeze on Hiring l
By letter date'd April 15, 1980, the Chairman appealed to DMB that NRC be exempt from the recently Imppsed government-wide hiring freeze. We have assumed in the exercise, that relief will be granted to allow NRC to hire up to or close to its Congressionally approved ceiling in FY 1980 including the House ;
l allowance on the FY 1980 Supplemental. This matter is discussed in the " Salaries, Benefits and Hiring" section.
"o O
(4) Travel and Transpte:tation Reduction by 0FB 1he EDO, by letter dated May 1, 1980, appealed to OMB for an increase in our travel and transportation The OMB staff has recently indicated that partial relief resulting in a travel ceeilng increase of ceiling.
We is being granted by OMB and that additional relief for NRC is still under consideration.
5625,000 have assumed in our Mid-Year Financial Review exercise ti at should additional relief by granted by OMB, This matter is discussed in greater detail under the " Travel it will be a relatively small addition.
and Transportation" section.
(5) Recent Congressional Reprograming Request As stated above, on March 7, 1980, Chaire n Ahearne transmitted to Congress our proposed use of $3 millio of unobligatc3 balances carried forward from FY 1979 to FY 1980. The reprograming consists of $2.2 mill bn for TMI-related activities and $0.8 million for Waste Management activities. Approval has been In the Mid-Year Financial Review, we reciend by three of our five Congressional Oversight Comittees.
have assumed full congressional approval of the reprograming request in the early part of June.
(6) NRC Interim Relocation A recently identified financial burden not previously anticipated in either the FY 1980 or FY 1981 budgets, is related to funding associated with the proposed interim relocation of some 1,300 employees from' existing NRC locations to 17th and H Street and the associated relocation of other headquarters A current estimate of the cost associated with the move is personnel in the Bethesda area.
In this review, we have assumed that up to $1 million could be required in
- ppr 'imately $3 million.
FY 1980 v'th the balance of the relocation funding required in FY 1981.
3
(7) 1981 Congressional Mark As of this date, Congress has not coupleted action of NRC's FY 1981 budget.
It will be difficult to assess the effect on FY 1980 program plans of the FY 1981 Congressional allowance. With regard to authorization, a reduction to our request of f' rom 2% to 5% couple'd with the Congressional mandate to absorb significant requirements associated with Advanced Reactors and llTGR effort is anticipated.
Based on past experience, a more severe reduction by the appropriation comittees could be realized.
For purposes of this exercise, we have assumed that the 1981 Congressional funding reduction will be on the high side of the aforementioned range of reduction, with major inpact to RES. The primary effect to the 1980 program will be in the form of program " stretch outs" subsequent to FY 1980.
(8) 1980 Authorization Legislation With two, thirds of the year over, Congress has yet to provide NRC with 1980 authorization legislation.
f Recent bills, passed by both Houses of Congress, indicate that the authorization process, when conplete, will result in the imposition on NRC of new initiatives, which if fully pursued, would result in additional shifting of FY 1980 funds and an associated request to the Appropriations Consnittees for reprogramming approval.
In this exercise, we have assumed that as a result of forthcoming Congressional' Authorization legislation funding of these new initiatives will not be mandatory.
4
(9) Regionalization In the recently approved Commission Policy, Planning and Program Guidance (PPPG), the staff was advised to consider NRC regionalization. While indications are that the effect of this decision could be felt as early as FY 1980, in this exercise, we have asr.;med limited resource requirements resulting in FY 1980 associated with the regionalization decision.

Agency Sumary Overview As portrayed in the following chart, the financial plan has and will be adjusted through FY 1980 from a beginning level of $363,340,000 to an ending position of $405,727,000. The first incremental increase of $2,605,000 shown in Deceriber was the allotting of funo from unobligated balances carried forward to cover prior year comitments.
The next incremental increase of $3,022,000 shown in June assumes Congressional approval of NRC's March 7, 1980 request for reprograming the remaining unob11 gated balance carried forward from FY 1979. The final incremental increase of $36,760,000 assumes the passage of the House Appropriation Comittee's version of our FY 1980 programatic and pay supplemental.

Mid-Year Status Analysis As indicated on the previous chart, actual obligations at Harch 31 exceed projections (projections were based on a historical rate based on the past three years experience) by $20.1 millioa. There are two major reasons
~
for this; (1) the Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research has been obligating program support funds at a much faster rate than ever before.
In the past, only approximately 77% of their available funds were obligated through March 31, whereas, this year they have obligated 87% of their available funds. This accounts for approximately $17 million of the accelerated obligation amount, and (2) this is the first year that administrative support funds have been allotted on an annual basis. As a result, ADM fully obligated many of their contracts This early in the year, such as, GSA rent and GPO print orders, rather than phase fund them during the year.
accounted for about $8 million in accelerated obligations. The aforerentioned accelerated obligations are offset in part by an underrun in projected obligations totalling $5 million representing the net effect of several over and underruns.
The mid-year status does not conclude that there is a deficiency of funding evallability for this agency; but merely that at mid-year we have obligated at a faster rate than in the past. The next section !.ncludes estimates as to the financial posture of NRC at year-end, i

-0.7 Travel transportation ceiling.
TOTAL

t In addition to the requirements shown on the previous table, other options for reprograming would be to fund unapproved portions of the FY 1980 supplemental request (e.g., Waste Management, Research) or additional l
TMI Action Plan work.
It is recomended that the Comission rote the possibility of the aforementioned variances and the potential of funds being available for reallocation to high priority agency efforts which become clear requirements during We recomend that no reprograming action be taken at this time for the following the balance of the year.
reasons:
(1) Until final Congressional action is taken on NRC's.FY 1980 Supplemental, a priority use for these funds cunnot be established.
The Comission must decide the course of the Nuclear Data Link before FY 1980 funding requirements (2) can be accurately estimated.
(3), The Comission must decide on the extent and timing of regionalization before FY 1980 funofng requirements can be accurately estimated.
(4) The potential. exists for an increase to NRC's. travel and transportation ceiling inposed by OHO.
Aay increase to this ceiling would decrease the estimated underrun.
The new initiatives and legal flexibility in funding these initiatives, contained in the pending (5)
NRC FY 1980 Authorization Act will not be finalized until passage.
When final Congressional action is received on NRC's FY 1980 Supplemental and/or actions are conipleted on the other significant items listed above, reprograming actions will be proposed.

FY 1980 Mid-Year Resource Review Salaries, Benefits and Iliring (Dollars in Thousands)
Personnel Compensation and Benefits As of March 31, 1980 NRC Personnel Compensation and Benefits (PC&B) funds were obligated at a Icvel of $51,768 (52.5%) with a Financial Plan availability of $98,560.
It should be noted that the availability of $98,560 reflects a reduction of $4,900 transferred to NRR Program Support pending receipt of apr?cval from Congress on the NRC FY 1980 Supplemental Budget Request.
If this funding had not been transferred from PC&B, the obligation rate would be 50% of availability compared to the actual 52.5%.
Regarding FY 1980 Supplemental funding, the following additional funds are expected to be added to PC&B availability prior to year-end:
- 1) $ 4,810 :
FY 1980 Pay Raise Supplemental 2) 300 : PC88 in FY 1980 Program Supplement 3) 4,900
- Restoration from NRR Program Supplement Total $10,010 i
The above amounts are based on the llouse Appropriations Committee Mark on the FY 1980 Supplemental.
Adding the $10,010 to the current availability of $98,560 would provide a total of $108,570 funding available this year for PC&B.
Funding data for PC&B is presented on the attached chart.

Iliring With reference to full-time permanent positions (FTP), the NRC authorized ceiling at the end of March was 3,034 FTP.
On liarch 14, 1980 President Carter imposed a limitation on Federal hiring.
For the duration of the hiring limitation, each agency must l'imit the nunber of appointments to FTP to not nore than 50% of the number of vacancies occurring after February 29, 1980. At the time the limitation was inposed, the NRC actual FTP was 2,800. On April 15, 1980 the Chairman appealed to the Director of OMB for relief from the limitation on the basis of an exemption permitted to naintain operations that
" directly protect human safety.
OMB staff has recently indicated that in response to our appeal to the hiring limitation there is a good change that NRC's FTP ceiling would be adjusted upwards.
The formal reply from OMB to NRC's request of April 15, 1980 for exemption from the hiring limitation is still pending-llowever, based on current staffing, outstanding commitments, expected declinations and attrition, it is projected that NRC will have on board 3,000 to 3,050 FTP by year-end assum'ng an essentially complete lifting of the freeze in the very near future. At the 3,050 FTP level, the total FY 1980 funding requirement is projected at $106,800 including SES bonuses.
Iliring data is presented on the attached graph.
I In summary, the $106,800 funding requirenent, compared to the $108,570 availability, indicates a
~
potential underrun in PC&B of $1,770.

3 Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Mid-Year Review Analysis Section Overview 4
The Office of Nuclear Reactir Regulation's (NRR) current Program Support funding availability ($24,550K) is 61% obligated and 80% commit ed as of March 31, 1980.
~
NRR's end-of-year funding proj (ctions for program support include increases to the current availability of
$820K from FY 1979 unobligated funds (SECY 80-37) and $10,760K fran the FY 1980 supplemental both of which are pending Congressional approval (Note: As of mid-year, $4,900K had been temporarily transferred fron Salaries and Benefits to Program Support pending receipt of L5e FY 1980 supplenental in order to fund the Casework Personnel Loan Assistance Program and high priority NRR effort.
This tenporary transfer was cleared in advance with the Congressional Appropriation Subcommittee staffs.).
Approximately $2,300K is being redirected for the TMI Action Plan effort during the second half of FY 1980, of which $800K will require Congressional reprogramming approval. Assuming the above funding availability by the end of the year, approximately $16,000K renains to be obligated ($11,500K to be conmitte:1).
Mid-Year Actual Status Analysis The majority of the obligational rates in the NRR decision units are consistent with the obligational schedules identified in DUTS. liowever, t.he Operating Reactors and Casework decision units slightly exceed the DUTS projections.
This is a result of the obligation of the tenporary transfer of funds fran Salaries and Benefits to Program Support for these two decision units to allow NRR to maximize their programmat.ic effort by providing timely availability of funding pending receipt of the FY 1980 supplenental funding.
16
. The Financial Plan issued to NRR on March 28, 1980, included a $1,800K increase in the tenporary transfer of funds from Salaries and Benefits to Program Support.
Through March 1980, $4,900K had been temporarily trans-ferred to NRR pending receipt of the FY 1980 supplemental budget request.
Therefore, although obligations at mid-year are 13% behind historical trends of having 70% obligated, the NRR obligational rate is approximately i
equal to prior years when considering NRR's late March financial plan increase. The temporary transfer of funds permits NRR to continue the Casework Pirsonnel Loan Assistance Program and to work toward the resolu-tion and impleuantation of TMI-related operating reactor licensing actions without severely impacting other high priority NRR effort.
End-of-Year Funding Projection Analysis The projected end-of-year funds renaining for obligation include the effort associated with the resolution and implementation of the TMI Action Plan, continuation of efforts to reduce the excess backlog of operating reactor ifcensing actions, and the continuation of the Casework Personnel loan Assistance Program for OL and CP reviews.
Operating Reactors has $5,378K renalning for obligation as of mid-year of which $2,486K has been conmitted
\\
throughApri) 30, 1980.
The end-of-year projected available funding includes $4,000K for the FY 1980 supple-mental (of which $3,000K has already been tenporarily transferred from Salaries and Benefits to Program Support) for resolving TMI-related operating reactor licensing actions, and $320K from the reprogramning of FY 1979 unobligated. funds with an additional $800K being reprogramned within existing availability to provide for the implementation of TMI Action Plan tasks.
l7
. ~
. Casework has $6,003K renaining for obligation as of mid-year of which $2,023K has been committed through April 30, 1980. The end-of-year projected available funding includes an increase of $6,020K from the FY 1980 supplemental (of which $4,000K has already been temporarily transferred fran Salaries and Benefits to Program Support) to provide for additional technical assistance mainly by DOE labs for OL and CP licensing reviews while NRR recruits and trains the 100 additional positions provided by Congress in FY 1979 and FY 1980. The
$4,000K tenporary transfer of funds will continue the Personnel Loan Assistance Program through the third quarter of FY 1980.
Technical Projects has $4,619K renaining for obligation as of mid-year of which $1,432K has been conunitted through April 30, 1980.
The end-of-year projected available funding includes increases of $740K from the FY 1980 supplemental and $500K from the reprogramming of FY 197{unobligated funds for the implenentation of high priority TMI Action Plan tasks.
Also included in the projected available funding is $1,170K redirected within existing available funding to work toward the resolution of several TMI Action Plan tasks.
The renaining $2,200K will be used to minimize the. impact of NRR's manpower reprogramming (as a result of the THI /wtlon Plan requirements) on basic support programs, such as generic studies which are required for pre-sent and futurd licensing positions, but which are not specifically case-related and audit calculations.
Manpower Review:
~
NRR has filled 80% of their available pennanent postions as of March 31, 1980, 113 postions below their 720 l
ceiling. Congress increased NRR's FY 1979 and 1980 budget requests by 100 positions for the purpose of 18
. continuing to license nuclear plant construction and operation. Ilowever, the industry-wide demand for high qualified technical personnel has contributed substantially to the difficulty experienced by NRR in filling these available positions. The recent anployment freeze continues to hamper NRR's effort to hire and
, train personnel.
Conclusions Based on the end-of-year funding projections,.NRR is expected to be able to fully obitgate the remaining Program Support. liowever, should the FY 1980 supplemental be delayed beyond the FY 1980 third quarter, it may be necessary to provide an additional temporary transfer of funds from Salaries and Benefits to Program s
Support in order to maintain the current licensing review schedule and to continue on the present schedule implementation of TMI Action Pla-requirements for operating reactors.

Office of Standards Development Mid-Year Review Analysis Section Overview The Office of Standards Development's (SD) program support current availability ($5,492K) was 4 % obligated a d 75% committed as of March 31, 1980.
Incorporation of the llouse Appropriation Committee nark-up of SU's FY 1980 supplemental request will increase SD's total availability in program support by $1,240K to $6,732K.
With these adjustments, the remaining overall funding availability to be obligated by the end of FY 1980 is
$4,239K.
Mid-Year Actual Status Analysis SD's actual obligations at mid-year ($2,492K) are 27% behind the historically based obligations forecast of having 62% of its program support funds obligated by mid-year. Ilowever, this lag is significantly less than the conparison of SD actual to obligation projections through March 1980 contained in the DUTS reports. DUTS reporting indicates that SD planned to have obligated 75% ($4,100K) of its program support funds by mid-year.
It should be noted that the actual program support obligations reported in DUTS are understated by $275K
($255K was omitted from Operations and Utilization Standards and $20K was unitted fran Safeguards Standards) as compared to the March 31, 1980 accounting reports. Delay in the obligation of funds is primarily in Safeguards Standards and Fuel Facility and Materials Standards, although the programnatic effort in these two decision units are not impacted by TMI reprogramming nor require FY 1980 supplenental funds.
Safeguards Standards had not obilgated $780K to the National Bureau of Standards for work on the Measurenent Quality Assurance Program by mid-year.- In Fuel Facility 'and Materials Standards, $565K had not been obligated at e
21 s
mid-year for standards on s ting, storage, and monitoring, low-level waste. The delay is a result of problems in negotiating the state'ient of work for these contracts.
End-of-Year Funding Projection Analysis The total available funding at the end of FY 1980 projected for 50 is $6,732K which includes the adjustment i
for the FY 1980 supplanental discussed above in the Overview section. Of the projected end-of-year available fundi ng', 63% ($4,239K) remained to be obilgated as of March 31, 1980.
Power Facility Standards has $788K renaining for obligation ($500K of this amount is in SD's supplemental request). Primarily, the funding remaining for obilgation involves work on energency planning workshops
($313K), containment design standards ($100K), and degraded core cooling ($100K).
This work is to be done by DOE labs and is dependent upon receipt of the FY 1980 supplemental. Of the $788K renaining for obliga-tion, $227K involves DOE lab work on core damage accident flow path study, site suitability study, emergency planning workshops, and nuclear reactor safety systems interaction methodology study.
As of April 30, 1980,
$170K of the $227K had been committed.
Fuel Facilityvand Material Standards has $908K renaining for obligation as of mid-year of which $565K is for standards on siting, storage, and monitoring of 1.ow-level waste.
$436K had been conunitted as of May 6,1980, for these waste management projects.
The remainder of unobilgated funds ($343K) involves work on geotech-nical surveillance and radioagraph camera design with DOE labs.
By April 30, 1980, $160K had been committed.
F 22 s
. Operations and Utilization Standards has $1,094K renaining for obligation, of which $740K is in SD's r
supplemental request.
Of the $1,094K remaining for obligation at mid-year, $354K is for GEIS on transpor-tation of radioactive material, State emergency response evaluations, and establishing contamination limits on surfaces of packages. This work is to be done by DOE labs.
As of March 31,1980, $251K was comnitted for these projects. The remainder of funds ($740K) is dependent upen receipt of the FY 1980 supplemental and would be used for respiratory protection studies, health physics survey of instrument perfonnance testing, and survey of operater license requirements.
Safeguards Standards has $1,449K remaining for obligation as of mid-year. Italf of the remaining unobligated funds ($780K) involves work with the National Bureau of Standards on the the Measurement Quality Assurance I
program. $680K had been committed by March 31.
$415K of unobligated funds is for security force effective-ness study, non-destructive assay paraneter study, and nen/nachine interface consideraton for security systems to be done by non-DOE contractors.
By April 30, 1980, $365K had been committed. $254K of unobli-gated funds is to be done by DOE labs for analysis of estimation nethodology, evaluation of loss estimates, and development of statistical methods for nuclear naterial accountability.
By April 30, 1980, $165K had been committed.
~
Conclusion l
Although there was a lag in obligations at mid-year, it is expected that SD will obligate all available funding by the end of the year. Ilowever, as discussed in the End-of-Year Funding Projection Analysis above, 1
23
~
_4_
SD has $1,240K for projected end-of-year renalning for obligation dependent upon Congressional approval of the FY 1980 supplemental. To facilitate expeditious obligation of the supplanental funding, SD has essentially completed the process of developing contract specifications and work order requests for their r.upplemental funding projects which are mainly for expansion of currently on-going efforts. Of the remain-ing $2,999K, $1,994K had been committed as of April 30, 1980, and of the $1,005K yet to be conunitted, approximately half involves work with DOE labs.

Office of Inspection and Enforcement Mid-Year Review Analysis Section Overview IE obligated $2,889K or 57% of its Program Support funding availability as of March 31, 1980. Commitments for Program Support were $2,684K or 73% of funding availability for the same time period.
IE committed and obligated $1,819K or 54% of its Regional Administrative Support funding availability as of March 31, 1980.
IE committed and obligated $654K or 63% of its Technical Equipment funding availability as of March.31,1980.
Based upon llouse Appropriation Committee action on the FY 1980 supplemental, IE's current availability would be increased by $1,020K. Also, IE's current availability would be increased by $865K once NRC's reprogramming request of FY 1979 unobligated balances is approved by Congress. Overall, the TM1 Task Action Plan require-ments of 21 staffyears and $100K for FY 1980 can be accomplished internally within IE and does not require additional resources.
These funding adjustments result in the following balances as of March 31, 1980, renaining to be obligated against the total IE projected end-of-year availability:
Program Support - $3,636K; Regional Administrative Support - $1,80lK; and Technical Equipnent - $550K.
Mid-Year Actuail Status Analysis There are no significant variances from historical obligation rates for IE Program Support and Regional Administrative Support.
Specifically, as of March 31, 1980, IE obligated $2,889K or 57% of its Program Support availability, a positive 6% variance over IE's historical average. Program Support obligations for I
i all decision units are consistent with IE's projections contained in DUTS reports for mid-year.
For the 26
2'-
same time period, IE obligated $1.819K or 54% of its Regional Administrative Support, a positive 8% variance over IE's historical average. Technical Equipment obligations were $654K or 63% of mid-year availability, a positive variance of 197% over the historical average. This variance is a result of an early large purchase of $443K for Multichannel Analyzers for the five NRC Regions.
End-of-Year Funding Projection Analysis Program Support:
IE would receive an additional 11 people and $1,465K from the FY 1980 supplemental request and reprogramming of the FY 1979 unobligated balances (SECT 80-37).
Specifically, the FY 1980 IE supplemental would provide:
in Fuel Facilities and Materials Safety,11 people and $100K for inspection and monitoring of low-level Waste Generators and Shippers, $100K for establishment and naintenance of Thermoluminescent Dosimeter (TLD) networks at reactor sites; and in Management Direction and Support, $400K for continuance of the on-going study of the NRC Operations Center and its data needs (Nuclear Data Link) in Management Direction and Support.
The repro-gramming of NRC FY 1979 unobligated balances would provide $865K for continuation of the Radiological Protection Inspection progran at operating power reactors (SECY 79-680) to go along with $175K fran internal reprogramming for the same purpose. Overall, the THI Task Action Plan for FY 1980 can be accomplished internally within IE and does not require additional Program Support resources.
Ilowever, depending on the forthcomirg Conmission decision on NDL (see subsequent discussion) a potential shortfall of $1,800K could naterialize.
Overall, IE Program Support obligations are on schedule, although several decision units bear monitoring.
All Program Support should be obligated by the end of FY 1980.
For Specialized Technical Training, the 27
i,
remaining $752K available for obligations includes two contracts presently pending in the Division of Contracts totalling $506K ($382K for Reactor Simulator Training at TVA and $124K for an Electrical and Instrumentation Technology and Codes Course with an as yet undesignated contractor).
For React.or Construction, the remaining funds ($330K) are planned to be obligated for two contracts (Independent Assessment; Destructive Test and Analysis and Environmental Qualification of Safety-Related Equipment) in the near future. For the Vendor and Contractor program, all of the $150K renaining funding to be obligated is conunitted for the Vendor Selection and Data Collection System.
For Fuel Facilities and Materials Safety, the $1,581K renaining to be obligated includes $1,040K to be provided from the FY 1979 unobligated balances reprogransning and internal reprogramming, mainly for the Radiological Protection Inspection Program at operating reactors, and $200K to be provided from the FY 1980 supplemental for establishing TLD networks and opening low-Level Waste Packages.
The remaining $341K available for obilgation is for Aerial Radiological Monitoring (ARMS) and calibration of environmental van equipment.
In all, the Radiological Protection Inspection program will require $1,300K during FY 1980 (nearly $150K is being costed per month). Although unlikely, if the FY 1979 unobligated balances reprogramming request is not approved and $1,040K is not added to Fuel Facilities and Materials Safety, the Radiological Protection Inspection program will run out of funds in late dune. For Manageme n Direction and Support, the renaining $500K to be obligated includes $400K in the FY 1980 supplemental and I
$100K in the FY 1980 TMI Task Action Plan Reprogranuning Paper for further study of the NRC Operations Center and the Nuclear Data Link (NDL) by Sandia.
The potential exists for a large unfunded requirenent in FY 1980 for the NDL, should it be approved by the Comission.
The Sandia Study, which gives a conceptual framework
to the proposed NDL calls for $2,850K in FY 1980 funds. Presently, RLS and IE total FY 1980 funding is
$1,050K including IE FY 1980 supplanental funding and $100K fran TMI Task Action Plan reprogramming, leav-ing a potential shortfall of up to $1,800K depending on which proposed data link alternative is selected for implementation.
For Reactor Operations, the $323t remaining for obligations through the end of the year is for Technical Support in Response to Incidents, Independent Measurements Technical Support, and Physical Inspection Priorities for Operating PWR Plants.
Of this amount, $248K was either canuitted as of March 31, 1980, or designated for DOE labs.
Safeguards, all available funds are obligated.
Regional Administrative Support:
The remaining $1,801K to be obligated includes $250K for lease of office space and building nodifications for the IE Training Center at Chattanooga, Tennessee, to be provided fran the FY 1980 supplemental.
The balance should be nearly canpletely obijgated by the end of the year if the present trend holds.
It should be noted that IE anticipates additional Regional Administrative Support funding requironents of $350K in i
excess of projected end-of-year availability nearly $350K due to acceleration of the Resident Inspector program.
In response to the President's direction to accelerate the assignment of resident inspectors, conmencing in early June 1980, IE will provide 40 hours4.62963e-4 days <br />0.0111 hours <br />6.613757e-5 weeks <br />1.522e-5 months <br /> per week inspection coverage at 23 operating reactor sites using regional inspectors where senite resident inspectors have been assigned, but have not yet reported. This action will have significant impact on IE Administrative Support funding requirements for the renainder of the fiscal year.
Specifically required are short-tenn rental housing accumnodations for 29
. inspectors being rotated to the site to serve as equivalent resident inspectors, goveranent-leased cars for the sites, hard-copy Safety Analysis Reports (SNIS) and Engineering Codes for most sites, office equipnent rental and purchases, supplies and telephone services.
These requirements exceed IE's total funding availa-bility for Administrative Support througli the end of FY 1980 by over $350K.
Further, long-tenn rental of housing accommodations and leased autos are required for inspectors being rotated as equivalent resident inspectors to three pre-op and three construction sites.
Technical Equipment:
The remaining $550K to be obligated includes $170K due to the FY 1980 supplemental for purchase of environmental and safety related equipment. 0f the remaining $380K of Technical Equipnent funds, IE has committed all but $10K subsequent to mid-year.
Conclusion IE should obligate all of its Program Support and Regional Administrative Support by the end of FY 1980, although availability of $2,160K of the funds remaining to be obligated depends on Congressional approval of the FY 1979 carryover funds reprogramming ($1,040K), the FY 1980 supplemental ($1,020K), and the proposed TMI reprograniming ($100K).
Even late approval of this funding would still allow IE to obligate, since most of the funding would be placed with DOE labs or with other contractors that IE has already prepared scope of work for processing by the Division of Contracts.
In addition, IE may require a net of up to $1,900K in 30
. excess of funding availability through the end of FY 1980.
This pot.ential requirement has as its basis the uncertainty of the Nuclear Data Link approval' by the Commission ($1,800K of Program Support) and the acceleration of the Resident Inspector Program ($350K of Regional Administrative Support).

Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards Mid-Year Review Analysis Section Overview As of March 31, 1980, of a Program Support current availability of $12,465K NMSS had obligated $3,447K (28%)
and committed $7,034K (56%). The current availability will be increased by $737K as a result of the repro-gramming of the FY 1979 unobligated balance carryover now pending Congressional approval. This funding adjustment results in NMSS having $9,755K ranaining to be obligated by the end of FY 1980.
Mid-Year Actual Status Analysis The 28% of Program Support obligated by mid-year lags the historical three year average of 37%.
It should be noted, however, that at mid-FY 1979, NMSS had obligated 29%.
A review of the HMSS program shows most decision units to have obligated funds generally consistent with the DUTS projections.
Of special interest, however, are the Material control and Accounting and Uraniun Recovery Licensing decision units, which diverge from the projections substantially.
The Material Control and Accounting decision unit has not met its projected obligations, $233K versus $622K, in part due to delay of work pending Congressional ratification fo the US-IAEA Agreement ($117K) and the slippage of work on value impact studies relating to the Material Control and Accounting Upgrade Rule
($130K). The,latter has been as a result of a reduced manpower effort by Pacific Northwest Laboratories which slowed down the use of FY 1979 funds for the same effort.
The Uranium Recovery Licensing decision unit has a $385K obligated versus a $501K projection. This is due to a change in the scope of work on environmental impact statements for fuel fabrication facilities, which required incronental funding and a
~
new proposal to the revised statement of work to be received from Oak Ridge National Laboratories.
33
O.
End-of-Year Funding Projection Analysis As previously mentioned, NMSS has not obilgated in FY 1980 up to the historical rate. Ilowever, historically NHSS has obligated 63% of its funds during the second half of the fiscal year and has generally obligated its entire funding availability by the end of the fiscal year.
Fuel Cycle Licensing has $1,243K remaining for obligation, the bulk of which is to fund the perfonnance of radiological evaluations of contaminated sites ($400K), a uranium fuel cycle survey and S-3 table (environ-mental impact data for providing fuel for a nuclear power plant for one year) update ($265K), and radiological evaluations of docket files ($164K).
Of the remaining $1,243K, $219K is to be obligated to DOE labs, $1,024K is for other contractors.
As of May 2, all of these funds were committed.
The $65K remaining for obligation in the Transportation Certification decision unit was projected to be obligated in April with Lawrence Livermore Labs.
With no obligations through March 31, the Radioisotopes Licensing decision unit has a total end-of-year availability of $614K.
That amount is partly composed of $263K fran the FY 1979 unobligated balances carry-over (expected in mid-June) to fund an effort to perform independent environmental neasurements relating to materials licensees.
The renaining $351K is primarily for independent environnental surveys of materials licensees ($111K) and a consumer products study ($90K) to be performed by non-DOE contractors.
As of May 2, 56% of the $614K renaining to be obligated was committed.
34
. The $587K remaining for obligation in the Material Control and Accounting decision unit is primarily for the Material Control and Accounting Upgrade Rule -- guidance for Material Control and Accounting system design ($200K) and value impact studies ($130K). Also remaining for obligation at $117K is the preparation of facility attachments (which define the safeguards to be applied at specific U.S. civil nuclear facilities) to the US-IAEA Agreement, which is still pending Congressional ratification.
The work on all three itens will be perfonned by DOE labs and all the remaining unabligated funds have been canmitted as of May 2.
Physical Security has $325K renaining for obligation, of which all but $5K is for work by DOE labs.
The single largest project to be obligated $125K) is one to study the "self-protection radiation level" of Special Nuclear Material (SNM) at 100 rem / hour at three feet. All available unobligated funds have been committed as of May 2.
The bulk of the $3,651K remaining for obligation in,the liigh-Level Waste Management decision unit is for work in support of repository site selection and perfonnance criteria ($2,360K) and for geotechnical sciences
($750K). This is made up of $2,271K for work at DOE labs which is conmitted except for $500K and $1,380K for other contractors which remains basically uncommitted. As of May 2, $1,791K has been conmiitted of the renaining $3,651K.
~
NMSS has not obligated any funds through March 31 in the Low-Level Waste Management decision unit.
The
$1,525K renaining for obligations is for work to be perfonned by non-DOE contractors and includes projects 35 i
t
. for environmental assessments for low-level waste disposal sites and an environmental impact statenent for 10 CFR 61 ($575K), work on waste from characterization ($300K), and geological conditions affecting low-level waste trenches ($475V,). As of May 2, $706V, was committed of the remaining $1,525K.
The $1,595K renaining for obligation in the Uranium Recovery Licensing decision unit includes $474K of FY 1979 unobligated balance carryover, primarily to fund increased efforts for evaluation of tailings impoundment sites and downstream area analysis of the Church Rock dam failure ($224K) and for the comple-tion of a uranium milling GEIS ($250K).
Most of the funds will be for work to be performed by DOE labs.
As of May 2, $1,006K has been committed.
Conclusion While the actual rates of obligation lag NMSS' own projections in some decision units, overall NMSS obligations seen to generally be taking place at a pace in keeping with the Program Office's forecasts.
NMSS has been constantly assessing its program and effected adjustments, internally transferring funds to areas where such funds could better be utilized, and these adjustments are already reflected in the amounts remaining for obligation. As discussed in the E0Y Analysis above, $737K of the $9,755K renaining to be obligated represent an increase as a result of reprogramming FY 1979 unobligated funds. Although these funds are still pending Congressional approval, they will be utilized to continue on-going projects at DOE i
labs and can still be obligated even if approval of the reprogramming continr:s to be delayed. Of the 1
remaining $9,018K, NMSS has already comnitted $5,284K as of May 2, and 60% o; the balance would be applied to tasks by DOE labs.
Therefore, it is expected that HMSS should be able to obligate all the funds projected as remaining for obligation through the end of FY 1980.

k Of fice of Nuclear Regulatory Research Fild-Year Review Analysis Section Overview The Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research's (RES) Program Support current availability ($163,221K) was 87%
obligated and 92% conmitted as of March 31, 1980.
This obligat. ion rate is approximately 14% ahead of his-torical trends.
For the same period, RES has obligated 85% of it.s FY 1980 current Equipnent availability
($7,727K) which is equal to past trends.
In addition to the current. availability of $163,221K for Program
)
Support, RES will be receiving $300K of FY 1979 unobligated funds requested for reprogranuning present.ly under Congressional review. Also, based on th? Ilouse Appropriations Committee (ilAC) allowance for the FY 1980 supplemental request, RES would receive an additional $9,960K.
These funding adjustments to current availability would result in RES having $37,169K renaining to be obligated by the end of FY 1980.
In regard to the TMI-2 Action Plan, RES had planned redirection of approximately $35,000K of its FY 1980 base program in addition to $14,000K from the FY 1980 supplemental request to fund the high priority action plan requirements.
Ilowever, based on the llAC allowance RES may only receive $9,960K of t.he $24,000K requested in the FY 1980 supplanental, wh. h may require some additional internal adjustments to assure the high priority TMI-2 research programs are funded.
Mid-Year Actual Status Analysis Most. of the obligations in RES decision units at mid-year are consistent with the obligation projections ident.ified the DUTS.
Ilowever, the actual obligations, are lagging behind the planned obligations reported in DUTS for the Waste Management and Reactor Environmental Effect.s decision units.
The actual obligations for the Waste Management decision unit in the March data of the DUTS report are 45% below the RLS projection and 38
the actual obligation rates of the Reactor Environmental Effects decision unit is 21% behind the planned obligation rate.
End-of-Year Funding Projection Analysis The majority of RES $30,956K for Program Support renaining to be obligated is for work planned to be accomplished by DOE labs.
As of May 20, 1980, RES has committed approximately 96% of its currently avall-able Program Support funds which represents 90% of the total projected LOY availability. Ilowever, of the funds renaining to be obligated at mid-year for the. Seismic, Engineering, and Site Safety; Reactor Environ-mental Effects; and Waste Management decision units (approximately $8.0 million) are largely for non-DUE contractors, which require a longer lead time to obligate than work placed with DUE.
A potential problem within the RES program will be the Congressional reductions RES is expected to receive to its FY 1980 supplenental budget.
Based on the llouse Appropriations Conmittee (llAC) reductions, RES will be reduced $14,000K from its $24,000K request.
This reduction could have major impacts to many of the cur-rent RES programs since most of the TMI-2 related research was planned last summer and was initiated by reorientation of the FY 1979 and FY 1980 programs by assuming the FY 1980 suppionental budget request wuuld be approved. i The following are the salient features of each RES decision unit:
Systems Engineering had $6,296K renaining for obligation which includes $3,460K based on the llAC mark on the FY 1980 supplemental for heat transfer and coolant flow studies for both BWRs and 1%s.
The renaining 39
_, $2,836K is mainly for the following: 3-D Instrunent Development ($250K); flecht-Set ($750K); Liquid Level Detector Guide ($255K); three undesignated contractors ($540K); and the renaining balance of $1,041K is associated with approximately 20 non-DOE contractors.
LOFT and Code Development had $934K arxi $753K respectively renaining to be obligated by thr end of FY 1980.
As of May 20,1980,100% arxi 95% r' c ctively of the E0Y availability for each of these decision units was, conmi tted.
RES plans to allocate $500K of the FY 1980 supplemental resources to the Code Develoguent deci-sion unit for advanced computer codes for thermal hydraulic behavior of the core and primary coolant systens.
Most of these funds are for programs are with DOE labs.
Fuel Behavior had $3,587K renaining for obligation which includes $2,600K of FY 1980 supplemental funds.
The supplanental funds will be used for studies associated with the examination fo THI fuel to assess the type and extent of damage to the core and also study the safety-related equiptent that could be impacted by the core damage. The reaaining $987K to be obligated for work to be donc mainly by non-Dut contractors f or the following:
Irradiation Test ($477K); two undesignated contracts ($409K); and Fuel Transportation Analysis ($100K).
i Primary Systems Integrity had $2,310K renaining for obligation by the end of FY 1980.
The major portion of the unob11 gated balance is for work to be done mainly by non-DOE contractors a structural integrity study
($1,210K), ultrasonic testing ($481K), degraded piping test ($235K), and seven other tasks that total $384K.
Approximately 97% or $8,311K of the LOY availability has been conuitted by May 20, 1980.
40
. Fast Breeder Reactors and Advanced Converters had $70lK and $150K respectively renaining to be obligated by the end of FY 1980. $475K of the unobligated funds is planned for efforts to be perfonned by undesignated contractors and the balance of the unobligated funds ($376K) is spread among nine different contractors. As of May 20, 96% and 91% respectively of the E0Y availability had been conunitted.
Seismic, Engineering, and Site Safety had $4,311K renaining for obligation by the end of FY 1980. As of May 20, 79% ($6,557K) of the E0Y available resources had been conunitted. /ilthough $2,000K was requested in the FY 1980 supplanental, RES would not allocate any of the IIAC FY 1980 suppionental allowance for this decision unit.
Should the liAC reductions be approved by Congress, RES may be required to modify the planned scope of the effort under this decision unit.
Reactor Environmental Effects and Fuel Cycle decision units have $1,626K arxl $584K respectively renaining "to be obligated by the end of FY 1980. 67% ($2,675K) and 95% ($2,955K) of the E0Y projected availability
($3,900K and $3,100K respectively) have been conunitted by Nay 20, 1980.
Based on the llAC IY 1980 supple-mental mark, RES would allocate an additional $700K to the Reactor Envirorsnental Ef fccts decision unit to enhanced operator capabilities by improving the instrumentation needed by the operators to better understand arxl react proidrly to the full spectrum of potential reactor accidents.
The bal mce of the rouaining funds to be obligated ($926K) for Reactor Environmental Effects are for 11 non-DOE contractors. Of the $584K
~
renaining to be obligated in the Fuel Cycle decision unit, $345K is for five tasks by UUE labs and $190K for a transporation envirorsnental study by a non-DOE contractor.
~
41
_._..-___=_A.-
. Waste Management had $3,299K renaining to be obligated by the end of FY 1980.
$800K is for efforts by DOL labs and ($2,499K) is for efforts by 25 non-DOE contractors of which five are undesignated with a program value of $520K. As of May 20,1980, 701 ($3,765K) of the E0Y available funds has been cousnitted. Note that if the liAC reductions are approved by Congress, RES does not plan to allocate any of the requested FY 1980 supplemental resources to this decision unit.
l Risk Assessment had $4,978K renaining to be obligated by the end of FY 1980. As of May 20, 1980, approximately 53% of the E0Y availability had been connitted. $1,100K of the ruuaining funds for obligation is for the Integrated Reliablity Evaluation Program (IREP) which should be obligated by June 1980, and the balance-of the unobligated funds are mostly assigned to DOE contractors.
Based on the liAC mark on the i
FY 1980 supplenental, RES would allocate $2,700K to this decision unit to accelerate research into the consequences of core nelt accidents and into accident sequences that entail core dauage, short of meltdown.
Most of the efforts under this decision unit are to be perfonned by DOE labs.
t r
Safeguards and improved Reactor Safety decisloc units have $627K and $800K respectively remaining to be obligated by the end of FY 1980. The unobligated funds for the Safeguards decision unit are associated with undesignated non-DOE contractors for the following prograns: Fission Transport Release - $305K; Material Holdup Studies'- $80K; and Explosive Attack on Spent Fuel Pools - $238K.
The unobligated funds for the improved Reactor Safety decision unit are associated with DOE contractors for the following: Decay lleat -
$200K; lluman Accident initiation - $100K; Plant Status Monitoring - $200K; and lluman Interaction Review -
$150K.
It is anticipated these prograns will be obligated during late May or early June.
4 42
. Equilanent had $1,213K renaining to be obligated by the end of TV 1980 of which $1,044K was consnitted as of May 20.
All of the RES equipment funding is for DOE contracts.
Conclusions Based on the End-of-Year Analysis discussed above, RI.S should be able to obligate nearly all of the 132,169K renaining, althougli ayailability of $10,260K of the funds ranaining depends on Congressior6al approval of the FY 1979 carryover reprogramniing ($300K) and the FY 1980 supplanental ($9,960K).
Even late approval of this funding would still allow RES to obligate, since most of the funds would be placed with DOE labs. Of the renaining $21,909K, 687. had been aircady conunitted as of May 20.
Ilowever, the potential exists for some funding to be unobligated at the end of the year for those efforts associated with the Seismic, tngineering, and Site Safety; Reactor Envirorsnental Effects; and Waste Management programs that are to be accanplished by non-DOE contractors which have not yet been conunitted (about $4,000K).
RES should carefully monitor the processing of non-DOE contracting during the last quarter of FY 1980.

S e
historical average for SECY is relatively small, it nonetheless a'ccounts for the largest dollar variance of all the Consnission offices.
This is largely due to the isr.ance of a court reporter contract to a new contractor whose projected cost was substantially below previous icvels of expenditure for this service.
For a variety of reasons this contrac' has been terminated and is currently being renegotiated (see below for more details).
None of the Consnission of fices are currently covered by DUTS.
End-of-Year Funding Projection Analysis projected E0Y availability indicates that $700K - $900K will be potentially unobligated at year end.
These funds would cane from the following of fices:
SECY - $400K - $500K unobligated court reporter contract funds.
These funds are not candidates for reprogramming at this time, however, due to the fact that since the court reporter contract is being renegotiated a higher rate is anticipated.
The previous contractor was deemed unacceptable due to such factors as delivery delays and was tenninated.
At the tine the original contract was proposed, NRC questioned awarding it to the lowest bidder noting that the contractor would be unlikely to del}ver the required services at the very low rate proposed. NRC was overruled in this decision by
~
SBA, however, and the contract was.ssued.
~
46
7 m - $160K underrun in contractual needs, $100K of which can likely be made available elsewhere.
The balance should be retained as a reserve for ad hoc connission contractual eff orts.
ASLBP - $20K underrun in contractual needs which can be made available for use elsewhere.
The year end manpower projections for these offices include 3 positions for the Office of Public Affairs as approved by the llouse Appropriations Connittee in the FY 1980 Supplanental. 2 positions requested by OGC, however, were not approved and are, therefore, not included.

o FY 1980 Mid-Year Resource Review Office of the Executive Director for Operations (Details by Object Class)
Overview Staff offices within the EDO allotment have thus far caiunitted approximately 64% of FY 1980 Program Support availability. Obligations thus far are approximately 42% of current availability compared with 32% of program support obligated as of this time last year. Projected E0Y availability includes $1,105K in supplanental funding contained in the mark by the llouse Appropriations Coninittee.
This supplemental funding consists of $1'10K for AE00 and $995K for OSP (a reduction of $40K from the original request).
Mid-Year Actual Status Analysis The 29% variance between obligations through March 31, 1980 and the historical mid-year average is primarily a function of FY 1979 carryover funds which, although conunitLed in FY 1979, were not actually obligated until FY 1980.
In the two offices covered by DUTS (USP & OlP) the variances between projected and actual program support obligations is minimal.
It should be noted that in the UIP DUTS presentation, funds obligated relate to official entertainment expenditures.
In addition, however, O!P has committed
$120K additional contractual support funding which accounting has not yet picked up as an obligation l
since the contract is still being finalized.
1 I
e 49
~.
End-of-Year Funding Projection Analysis Year end obligations in the EDO offices are projected to be approximately $900K - $1,000K less than E0Y availability.
This is likely to occur for the following reasons:
EE0 - $280K was carried over from FY 1979 and subsequently committed in FY 1980 to fund an agency-wide EE0 study.
The actual cost to date of the contract has been significantly less than anticipated.
EE0 is, therefore, likely to end the year with $65K unabligated.
OSP - $500K approved by the llAC for Emergency Preparedness grants in the FY 80 supplemental wi?1 probably not be obligated due to the Line necessary in soliciting, approving and awarding grant..
This is the case even if the most optimistic estimate of full congressional approval of the supplanental is used.
The $500K grant money in OSP should not be used elsewfiere, however, but rather carried over into FY 1981 as an unobligated balance and nede available to FEHA when resources are of f icially transferred by a " determination order."
MPA - $200K is likely to remain unobligated in HPA at EUY based on historical obligation trends.
N'A, how-ever, indicates that it has definite uses for all but $100K of its current program support avr', lability.
AEDO - $110K requested in the supplemental is not likely to be utilized in FY 1980 since ALUD has not
/
as yet fully determined its contractual support needs for l Y 1980.
NOIL:
It is ALUD's current intent to hire to its FY 1981 ceiling of 22 positions as approved by the COMM.
This is a potential problen if the overall vacancy rate agency-wide cannot accommodate this overhiring.

iY 1980 Mid-Year Resource Eleview lleadquarters Administrative Support (Details by Object Class)
Overview As of March 31, headquarters administrative support funds as reflected in the Narch 31 financial plan were 85% conmiitted and 70% obligated.
The major reasons for tiie overall variance between conunitments and obilgations concern conunitments of $2.0M for the Document Control Systen and $1.5h in ADP Services which have not yet been contractually obligated.
Mid-Year Status Analysis On a historical basis, headquarters administrative support conunitments and obligations are significantly higher as of March 31 than has been the case in the past.
This situation derives frun two primary factors:
(1) Several major contracts, such as Standard Level User Charges (SLUC) for rental of space, the additional cost of the Reactor Emergency Conmiunication System, and Goverssnent Printing Office (GPO) print orders, were fully obligated in the early part of the fiscal year for efficiency rather than phase-funded throughout the year as had generally been the case in the past, and (2) Cuisnitments have been made based on additional fvnding anticipated from the FY 1980 Supplanental, particularly for the Document Control Systen backfit
($2.3M), ADP timeshare services - primarily to run flRR codes ($2.6M) and maintenance of the Reactor Emergency Communications Systen ($1.4M). Funds for these ef forts were included in the recent ilouse Appropriations Conunittee mark.
O e
O 52
End-of-Year Funding Projection Analysis A potential problem exists in funding associated with the itRC relocation.
Approximately $1M could be required for this purpose in FY 1980, depending on the timing involved.
Should this requirement arise, ADM indicates that contractual priorities can be so arranged that this funding can be accommodated at least in part, however, some deficit could remain.
An additional unfunded requirement involves the move toward liRC regionalization. However, due to the uncertainty of this requirement, no specific spending imoact has been assumed in this analysis.
Details of E0Y projections based on mid-year status are presented below by Administrative Support category:
Transportation of Persons Obligations are higher than the historically based forecast primarily due to extension of the shuttle bus contract early in the fiscal year.
OMB is still considering liRC's travel and transportation needs.
Subject to overall Travel and Transportation ceiling constraints, sufficient additional funding availability is contained in the FY 1980 Supplemental.
Transportation of Things Obligations in this category increase as new hires involving movement of household goods are made.for 1
the agency, and as reassignments are made, primarily in the resident inspector program.
Subject to.-
Overall Travel and Transportation ceiling constraints, additional funding availability can be provided from the FY 1980 Supplemental.
53
~-
Rent, Communications and Utilities The major unfunded requirenent ($1.4H) in this category concerns maintenance of the established Reactor Emergency Communications Systen between reactor sites and the NRC Operational Center in Bethesda.
Funding for this is contained in the llouse Appropriations Consnittee mark on the i Y 1980 Supplanental.
Printing and Reproduction Obligations in this category exceeded tiie original administrative budget estimate as of March 31.
This resulted from a sizeable increase in services requested by the office for copying, printing and graphics.
E0Y availability is anticipated to be sufficient.
Contractual Services The following additional funding availability pertaining to IMI-related requirenents is contained in the FY 1980 c pplemental:
u
$2,300 -
Imnediate start of backfit of docunr nts into the Document Control System originally planned for FY 1981 through a second shift addition to the contract with TERA.
$2,800 - Additional ADP timeshare services for LOCA analyses as. mil as audit and sensitivity I
calculations at POE facilities.
This funding will be made available to ADM following passage of the FY 1980 Suppionental and UNU apportioranent and should be sufficient to cover FY 1980 requirenents.
54
_e.
Supplies and Materials Obligations t;irough March 31 are essentially following the originally established FY 1980 financial plan.
Training As of March 31, Training funds were 567, consnitted. Projected E0Y funding ($U24) is anticipated to be adequate. One potential problem area involves a source of funding ($60K) for proposed ASLllP training fron the National Center for Administrative dustice. Sufficient funding should be available from within total Administrative Support availability to acconanodate this need.
Equipment 1
Equipment is 64% coimitted and 49% obligated.
Based on consnitment percentages, obligations are expected to increase during the third quarter. Projected E0Y availability is anticipated to be suf ficient to cover requirements.
lleadquarters Administrative Support through March is 85% conmitted and 71% obligated as compared to the harch 31 Financial Plan. This is significantly higher than in previous years (e.g., obligations were 467. in FY 1979 at this time).
$6,985 is identified to lleadquarters Administrative Support in the FY 1980 Supplemental Request as marked up by the llouse Appropriations Consnittee. Assuming this additional funding becomes I
available, CON feels that funding should be adequate to accomplish planned objectives, including IY 1980
~
funding associated with the NRC relocation depending on its eventual magnitude as well as the proposed ASLBP training plans.
Regionalization plans require further study.
In sunsuary, we have assumed that 55
+
- Headquarters-Administrative Support has a shortfall in funding of approximately $200K primarily related to unabsorbed relocation expenses._

Review of Travel and Transportation In conpliance with P.L. 96-86, " Congressional Reduction of FY 1980 Travel and Transportation", on April 7.1980, the OMB formally imposed a ceiling of $7,722,000 on NRC's Travel and Transportation obligations. On May 1, 1980, the EDO appealed to the OMB to increase the ceiling to $9,000,000 assuming passage of the supplenental with the travel and transportation request intact. On May 13, 1980, the Chairman informed the Director of OMB of his full support of the ED0's earlier appeal and silicited the Director's assistance in obtaining relief.
In these appeals, of particular concern was OMB's non-recosaltion of the Congressional increase to IE's travel. Final action has not been taken by OMB, but as an interim measure, the ceiling has been increased to $8,347,000. This new ceiling represents a reduction of $1,344,000 or 74% from the budget approved by Congress (assuming approval of the House version of the supplemental).
On April 25, 1980, the EDO requested that NRC offices review their travel and transportation requirenents and submit to the Controller, estimates of hard-core essential travel and transportation fund needs through the end of the fiscal year. The CON reviewed the office submissions and on May 20, 1980, issued revised financial plans and allotments to incorporate the current OMB ceiling. The table below shows each allottee's travel and transportation budget.

1/ Initial allocation was made particularly low in anticipation of a ceiling increase based on supplemental.
--2/
The large increase to ADM was based on agency-wide connitments for interviewee and change-of-duty station travel which is funded by ADM.
O 6
58
It should be noted that the travel ceiling for IE remains essentially untouched in recognition of the fact that as a result of Congressional action to increase IF travel, a permanent reduction would require Congressional reprogranrning approval.
Should There remains a possibility that OMB will make some additional increase to !!!tC's ceiling.
this be the case, the financial plans and allotments will be adjusted imediately.
Since OMB is only reducing the ceiling and not the funding, even with our most optimistic assunption concerning an an additional increase to our ceiling by OMB, there would be a potential to reprogram funds from travel (assuming passage of the llouse Appropriations Committee version) to other needs.

Review of Costs
' Overview The best' financial measure of work performance is costs. The following three charts depict costs incurred through-March 31, 1980, and projected costs (based on past history adjusted for the lateness of the receipt of the supplemental) through the end of the year compared to the financial plan, for program support, administrative support and equipment. Salaries, Benefits and Travel have been excluded because with minor exceptions, costs equal obligations.
The costs incurred through March are generally in line with previous experience, however, progra support costs have been incurred at a faster rate than previously. Prin.arily, this is because RES obligated their DOE task orders earlier in the year.

End-of-Year Projections As shown on the three previous charts, it is estimated that there will be an uncested balance at year-end totalling approximately 190.0 million.
As shown on the next chart, at the end of FY 1979, uncosted FY 1979 obligations totalled $70.3 million. The major reason'for this extimated increase in the uncosted balance is that the supplemental will not be passed and available for obligation and costing until July.
It should be noted, as shown on the following chart, that over the past four years, the uncosted balance has steadily increased from $45.3 million at the start of FY 1977 to $70.3 million at the start of FY 1980.
Ilowever, based on costs incurred in the following fiscal year, this balance represents a reduction in the nunber of months of delayed activity. The FY 1976 balance represented an average of 16.7 mcaths of work, whereas, the FY 1979 balance represented an average of only 9.4. months of work. Due to the 1M.eness of the receipt of the FY 1980 supplemental, it is expected that the FY 1980 balance will represent, albeit explainable, an increase in the number of months of work.
