Supervisors Reporter d. Rbe NRC has released a final rule that is effective February 1, 1988 concerning the completeness and accuracy of information presented to the NRC as written or oral comunication.

The accuracy statement will be added to 10 CFR Parts 2, 30, 40, 50, 55, 60, gs 61, 70, 71, 72, 100 and 150. It has a two-fold requirement. The first relates to the fact that disclosure obligations identified in the new rule will be l (V ') treated as violations of 10 CFR 50.9 (a) instead of being a material false '

statement. The re is no requirement under this paragraph that the licensee have knowledge of any inaccuracy or omission or have intent to defraud the j NRC for the violation to be cited. Mate rial false statement violations will be reserved for those acts that probably require Justice Depa rtinent action.

Inadvertant errors or omissions during communication with NRC would be subject to action under 50.9 (a).

The second portion relates to a new reporting requirement of "significant in-formation" to the NRC. The definition of "significant information" is any information having a significant implication for the public health and safety or common defense and security that would not otherwise be reported. This significant information needs to be reported within two days after GPC has determined:

1. The information would not otherwise be reported.

2. The information has a significant implication.

There is no requirement to develop a formal program similar to a Part 21 eval-uation program. What is expected is that if a person identifies some potential safety information, that the information will be provided to the appropriate licenset officials to determine its significance and reportability to the Comiss ion.
