Dear Mr. Denton:
On November 28, 1983, M r.
Kuhus advised the Commission of plans to establish a Nuclear Safety & Compliance Committee of the GPU Nuclear Board of Directors.
This Committee was to be composed entirely of outside members of the Board.
Several announcements regarding selection of the members and staff support have been made since then.
However, I believe it may be helpful to provide a brief summary of the status of this matter.
The enclosure provides that status.
It shows the Committee is in place and beginning to function.
Copies of this letter and enclosure are being provided to the Commission, Boaros, and parties to the THI-l Restart Proceeding.
Very truly yours, f

i CHARTER NUCLEAR SAFETY AND COMPLIANCE COMMITTEE I.
PURPOSE The Nuclear Safety and Compliance Committee of the GPU Nuclear Corporation Board of Directors was established by the Board on February 23, 1984, to help ensure nuclear and radiation safety of GPU System nuclear activities by:
o Independent, perceptive monitoring, and o
Reporting its observations to the Board of Directors.
The primary focus of the Committee is safety of operations, including compliance with regulatory requirements, licens-ing requirements, and procedures.
II.
MEMBERSHIP The Committee will consist of three outside members of the I
GPU Nuclear Board of Directors, selected by the Board of Directors for their professional credentials, judgment, and independence.
III.
INDEPENDENCE i
To provide for a well informed and independent review, the Committee will select its own staff and plan and con-I duct its prog' ram of surveillance to accomplish the above Purpose.
The Committee and its staff will have unre-stricted access to GPU Nuclear personnel, plant operations, and records. _ _-
1 Neither Committee members nor members of their immediate families may own bonds or stock issued by GPU or subsidiary companies.
Committee members may not enter into personal services contracts with GPU or its subsidiaries, or take any other actions which would create a conflict of interest and prevent their performing their duties with complete independence.
I IV.
RESPONSIBILITIES The Committee is to conduct a continuing review and ap-praisal of GPU Nuclear's activities at and in support of their TMI-l and Oyster Creek Stations with specific at-tention to safety and compliance.
V.
REPORTS The Committee will report its activities and observations 1
to the Board, in writing, at least twice each year.
These reports are to provide independent and comprehen-sive assessments of the standards of safety being achieved I
at the TMI-l and Oyster Creek Stations.
The Committee
(
will present consensus reports when it is reasonable to do so.
However, significant dissenting views of a member will be presented in a minority report.
+
t It is the intention of the Board to make these reports available to the NRC and to the public.
i 1
r I
i
_2-i I
l The Committee is responsible to bring immediately to the attention of GPU Nuclear management and the Board any practice or condition which has a potential to reduce the safety of operations.
Such reports will be made by the Committee to the Chairman of the Board and to the Chief Executive Officer.
f The Committee will be available to meet at least twice a year with the GPU Board of Directors.
l VI.
COMMUNICATIONS 3
Free communication between the Committee, its staff, and GPU Nuclear management personnel is vital in order for the Committee to perform its functions successfully.
The Committee is expected to conduct its oversight activities in such a way as to' foster openness and candor.
i The Committee and staff will normally communicate their observations only to the Board and will avoid suggesting I
or recommending any action to the GPU Nuclear staff.
Mat-ters of timely concern may, however, be communicated l
directly by the Committee or staff to the Station Vice President, and thereafter to the Chief Executive Officer and the Board.
i -
P The existence of the Nuclear Safety and Compliance Com-I mittee and its staff will not diminish in any respect GPU Nuclear Corporation's responsibility for the safe opera-tion and maintenance of the GPU nuclear units.
