r OCT 4 lu MEMORANDUM FOR:

C. J. Heltemes, Jr., Director Office for Analysis and Evaluation of Operational Data FROM:

Harold R. Denton, Director Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation

SUBJECT:

NRC ACCESS TO THE NUCLEAR PLANT RELIABILITY DATA (NPRD) SYSTEM NRR has reviewed your proposed response to Mr. Snierek regarding access to the NPRD System. As discussed with F. Hebdon of your staff, we believe that the allocation of two direct access passwords to NRR is insufficient for our needs and suggest that NRR be allocated six passwords.

The NRR reorganization will have five divisions, each of which has a need for access to the NPRD System. Examples of their needs and requesting branch include:

failure analysis statistics (Reliability and Risk Assessment Branch), maintenance related equipment failures (Maintenance and Training Branch), and operational related failures (Facilities Operation Branch - one in each of three licensing divisions). The Operating Reactors Assessment Staff (which is independent of the five divisions), will be charged with operating reactor events analysis in a manner similar to the current Operating Reactors Assessment Branch and will also require NPRD System Access.

NRR believes the restrictions imposed by the need for security can still be met and that degradation of system performance is unlikely with the additional individuals using the system. More importantly, the staff access to the NPRD System and the easy availability of information remains consistent with our understanding of the NRC goals when we agreed to the establishment of the NPRD System under the LER rule change in 1984.

We agree with the provisions for training, fees, and usage report proposed in your draft.

Please contact R. Wessman (28432) if you have any questions.
