Dear Mr. Chairman:
On December 8,1981 you expressed concern that recent NRC reallocation of FY 1982 resources to accelerate licensing of light water reactors and to review the construction perr.it application for the Clinch River Breeder Reactor Program may impact resolution of important generic safety issues.
Responses to your specific questions, the separate views of Comissioner Ahearne, and my response to Comissioner Ahearne's d
views are enclosed.
Since submission of the FY 1982 budget to Congress in January 1981, events have occurred which require the Comission to adjust the al-location of the resources requested in our original budget submission as discussed in the enclosure.
In making these adjustments, the Com-mission objectives continue to be resolution of issues important to safety, maintaining the safety of operating reactors and not unneces-sarily delaying the licensing of reactors. Within the total resources appropriated, the Comission believes that these major objectives can be met.
Sincerely,
, }. t.. -
