SUBJECT:

SECY-96-222 - USE OF OPEN PREDECISIONAu ENFORCEMENT CONFERENCES AND ELIMINATION OF

)

CERTAIN PROVISIONS FOR COMMISSION CONSULTATION; PROPOSED REVISIONS TO THE ENFORCEMENT POLICY TO ADDRESS RISK SIGNIFICANT VIOLATIONS AND CERTAIN NON-CITED VIOLATIONS I

l Approved X w/cmts Disapproved Abstain Not Participating Request Discussion i

l COMMENTS:

I approve with the following comments:

1.

Press releases for open predecisional enforcement conferences should continue r

to be worded carefully so as not to prejudge the outcome.

They should

/

continue to include an explicit description of the nature of the conference as a predecisional opportunity for the licensee to present any additional material or information before the NRC arrives at a decision.

j If public attendance creates gaps in communication and needed information, 2.

staff should take the necessary additional steps to acquire the needed l

information.

3.

The Commission should receive a more detailed and earlier explanation of an enforcement action than an EN provides (i.e., a short memorandum to the

)./

Commission if not full consultation) if the action is likely to have implications for broader sanctions or invglves issues that have become matters of substantial public interest.
