, Sumary/ Minutes 2 Long Range Plan Mtg.
March 1, 1985 C
There was agreement among subcommittee members a Long Range Plan for the NRC should be developed. Currently the goal is to produce a report addressed to the Commissioners by October of 1985.
As the Subcommittee began to consider elements of the plan, it was agreed that the over riding goal would be to attempt to define what is best for the nation.
Highlights of Discussion:
The meeting consisted entirely of a round table discussion among the subcomittee. There were no presentations or discussions with parties aside frcm subcommittec members and ACRS staff.
The subcommittee believed a preamble to the report would be appropriate.
This section would be broad in nature. It would define the objective of nuclear regulation to protect the public health and safety. It should address the issue of whether or not the nation needs a viable nuclear power option. It should provide a justification for its conclusion. To be considered are the hazards of producing electric power from other alternative sources. The preamble should address future problems that may arise.
It was agreed the focus of the plan would be on the production of power from nuclear energy and issues relating to this. Research and test reactors, medical and industrial uses of nuclear materials will not be considered in any depth.
The subject of what new forms of regulations, if any, are needed to serve the public will be considered. By the same token, less regu-lations will be considered for a sense of the effect this will have on the public welfare.
Listed below is a first attempt to define primary goals the plan should address. This first cut at goals is subject to change as discussions continue.

' Primary Goals
- 1. Prevention of Accidents that create a major impact on the public, f
i 2. Assure routine operation of NPPs so there is no undue impact on l
public health and safety.
- 3. Consistent with above objectives, provide adequate public health and safety at a total regulatory cost, if possible, which will permit development of nuclear power to the level where it is a viable option for the nation.
4 Determine what level of nuclear safety is appropriate in the public l
interest.
- 5. The NRC should clearly enunciate its nuclear safety objective and its confidence that its objectives are being met.
The subcomittee discussed the public acceptance of the nuclear fuel cycle. The thought was forward 6d that the NRC should not be dealing with public acceptance of nuclear power. That should be left for policy makers that have decided to pursue the nuclear power option. The role of public participation in the licensing process and its contribution to safety was discussed. The subcomittee was interested in the cost vs.
benefit of public participation. It was felt by subcomittee members that the NRC should explain the level of safety sought to the public and whether or not that level is being achieved. The idea of an annual report by the Comission on nuclear safety was suggested.
It was suggested that NRC should have a strong research program. This program should be directed at supporting the goals of the agency. Some method of assessing how cost beneficial research is should be devised.
The subcomittee also discussed the need for more quality control within j
the Commission Staff. There must be controls on the staff especially during plan reviews. There appears to be some lack of coordination during plant reviews.
As in setting primary goals, the subcomittee also discussed the issue of why have a long range plan. These impressions, listed below, are a i__-_-____-_____--__ _ _ _ _ _ - .

- first attempt to define the rationale for the plan. Other equally valid needs may be added.
Why a Long Range Plan?
- 1. What NRC is now doing is not optimum and a plan is needed to correct it.
- 2. In addition, we anticipate new problems in the future and need a plan to deal with those future problems.
- 3. What NRC does has a huge influence on the public interest. There is a great need on the part of industry / establishment to understand where the NRC is headed -- course of action -- so industry knows what to expect.
The subcommittee discussed the possible benefits from having performance oriented regulations as opposed to the present prescriptive regulations.
Performance oriented regulations would allow operators to accomplish regulatory goals in a manner most efficient for their organizati'on.
It was also noted there should be a change in the way the staff applies the regulations. Members felt more engineering judgment should be applied by the staff. Favorable experiences with SEP reviews were discussed as a example of how safety reviews could be improved.
The subcommittee believed it would be worthwhile to focus on the enmpo-sitien of the NRC Staff. Issues such as qualifications, training, and stability are expected to be explored. The size of the NRC may also deserve study. As the industry matures, should the size of NRC be reduced?
The question of the economics of nuclear power was discussed. It was stated that nuclear power would never have begun if it were not both safe and economical. Economics should be an issue in the plan. The 10 CFR 50 Appendix ! ALARA criterion of $1000/ man-REM was discussed. The subcommittee felt this ratio was high, but believed this criterion has served as a useful and important bench mark. This number could not be

6 easily altered without upsetting the conservative balance it strikes between costs and potential health effects from radiation.
l The subject of standardization was discussed. It was felt there would i also be a trade-off between standardization and inovation in the stan-dard plant approach. The question of whether or not standardization is really in the best interest of safety will be explored.
It was felt there is merit to a " sign as your go" approach to licensing.
As discreet stages of a plant's constructies are completed NRC would approve the job to that point.
The idea of self-regulations by the industry was discussed. Such
" positive regulation" could tap the expertise available in the industry.
t Could a group similar to INP0 (which focuses on plant operation) be established for plant design and construction to promote excellence?
Appendix D to these minutes lists a number of tentative topics to be considered in formulating a Long Range Flan for the NRC. The categori'es as well as topics (presently around 40) are subject to change.
List of Follow-up Actions:
- 1. The subcornmittee believed an employment profile on the agency would be of use and requested such information as turnover rates, age distribution, length of service for NRC managers, etc.
- 2. The subcommittee wanted some figures on how much time and money are spent on the licensing hearing process. What contribution to safety does the hearirg process make?
r
- 3. As in item 2 above, the role of the ACRS should also be considered on a cost / benefit basis.

. 4. It was agreed that tentative positions reached by the subcommittee should be presented to the full ACR3 for approximately three hours at a time.
- 5. The subcommittee did not appoint any consultants to serve over the entire course of this review.
- 6. The subcommittee decided to seek input from a variety of sources to gather testimony and to explore needs that were not identified by the subcommittee. Both present and past Commissioners and Staff members were mentioned. Vendors, Congressional Aids and Selected Congressmen and selected public interest groups were mentioned as sources of input. Other sources of input include: State Public Service Commissions (or their national organization), other govern-ment bodies such as OMB, and GAO, (reports by these groups on the 3 NRC were requested), foreign groups will be contacted as a part of previously scheduled ACRS business, hearing board members, Depart-4 ment of Energy Representatives and other selected people.

- Future Meetings
The Subcomittee set the date of April 5,1985 tentatively as the next meeting date. The Subcomittee also requested three hours of prime time to discuss preliminary planning and direction of this project with the full Comittee during the April 11-13, 1985 Comittee meeting.
