For:

The Commissioners From:

James M. Taylor Executive Director for Operations

Subject:

QUARTERLY STATUS REPORT ON LICENSING ACTIONS 1

Purpose:

To inform the Commission of the status of licensing actions and progress achieved in meeting inventory goals.

Discussion:

As discussed in the June 9,1989, memorandum to the Conunission.

Subject:

" Operating Reactor Licensing Actions and Technical Speci fication Improvements," NRR established goals to control the size and age of the licensing action inventory and is closely monitoring progress made. These goals are that (a) the average number of inventory actions will not exceed 25 per plant and (b) 80 percent of actions in the inventory will be less than 1 year old, 95 percent will be less than 2 years old, and all will be less than 3 years cid. The enclosed tables report the status of licensing action completions, inventory, and aging situation. Licensing action completions in relation to the Five Year Plan goals are reflected in Tables IA (FY 89) and IB (FY 90). The licensing action inventory in relation to objective is shown on Tables llA (FY 89) and IIB (FY 90). Table 111 shows the progress made on closing out the sediment of plant-specific amendments greater than 2 years old, and Table IV shows the aging situation of the current inventory, including plant-specific actions (e.g., license amendments) and multi-plant actions (e.g., close-out of Unresolved Safety Issues).

1 As used in this paper and in other status reports to the Commission, the term " licensing actions" refers to the total workload of review and approval items which stoff must address as a result of licensee responses to NRC generic initiatives (rules, some Bulletins, Generic Letters, etc.)

as well as the workload of plant-specific Technical Specification changes or other license amendment requests initiated by licensees. The term " license amendments" refers only to plant-specific requests for Technical

/

Specification changes or other license amendments.

-The Commissioners J NRR completed 3,006 licensing actions in FY 89, exceeding the u!

Five Year Plan goal by-326 actions. NRR plans to complete 3.030 actions in FY 90 and is relatively close-to its fiscal-year-to-date plan.

Substantial progress has also been.made in reducing the licensing action inventory from about 3,600 actions at the

.beginning of FY 89 to its present size of.about 2,500 actions, which translates into an average inventory of 22 actions per plant. -This current level is f avorably below the inventory goals-of 2,825 based on 25 actions per plant. A major effort was undertaken by NRR last Spring to reduce the-sediment of older-li. cense amendments, many of which had been in the inventory for years. Of the 286 license amendments more than 2 years old-in March 1989,271(95%) were completed by the end of 1989. There still remain, however, 572 licensing actions older than 3 years. Many of these actions represent some of the more difficult multi-plant actions that are currently receiving concentrated attention to achieve earlier resolution and closure.

In summary,' NRR is meeting its commitments in terms of completions and inventory levels and will continue to pursue further improve-ments in reducing the age of the inventory, i
