FIELD P0llCY HANUAL 110. 17 - PERIODIC PRESS BRIEFINGS EQlin To increase public understanding of the NRC mission and programs, periodic media briefings will be conducted on regional and agency-wide issues / topics.
The briefings will be in addition to those held on specific events or accidents in the Region.
Eulditn1g Regional Administrators are to initiate periodic (approximately 4 per year) media briefings on regional and agency-wide issues / topics which will be useful to the news media.
To assist Regional Administrators in the selection of suitable topics, a Media Briefing Guide will be initiated, distributed and maintained by the office of the DEDR.
This Briefing Guide will provide an index of important issues / topics, a set of briefing papers with a background discussion of each topic, and a highlights sheet to use as desired during the actual press briefing.
These papers will be reviewed by the Office of Public Affairs.
Each region may adapt this information to fit the circumstances at the briefings. The Media Briefing Guide will be updated or expanded as the p
need arises.
The Regions have considerable flexibility in implementin this policy.
Regional Public Affairs Officers will be actively involv d in this program, including notifying the affected media representatives, the public affairs offices of the affected utilities, if appropriate, and arranging for briefing locations.
Regional Administrators should plan to conduct these media briefings at various locations in the Region.
Although relating agency-wide issues to specific sites in the localities may be a desirabic feature to generate interest, these briefings also should be viewed as sessions which include discussions of NRC policies and activities generally.
