MEMORANDUM TO: Chairman Jackson Commissioner Rogers Commissioner Diaz Commissioner McGaffigan  ;

FROM: Greta Joy Dicus

SUBJECT:

COMSECY-96-061; RISK-INFORMED, PERFORMANCE-BASED REGULATION (DSI-12) 5 Section 3.9 of the Phase ll," Stakeholder Interaction Report" discusses the public comments and Commission Preliminary Views on the subject of Risk-informed, Performance-based Regulation. I have reviewed the information provided and have concluded that the Commission's preliminary view should be reflected as its final view.

Continued implementation of Option 1 along with elements of Option 3 will enable the

~

staff to proceed with exploration of risk-informed approaches at a reasonable pace, without placing an undue burden on the staff; nor will the NRC be put into a position of ,

being far ahead of industry. ]

i i would also recommend that the staff take a closer look at the applicability of its risk-informed, performance-based initiatives (i.e., PRA Implementation Plan) with regard to nuclear materials licensees, to ensure that the needs of those licensees receive adequate consideration.
