SUBJECT:
DRAFT PAPER ON NRC ORGANIZATIONAL OPTIONS FOR EMERGENCY !
PREPAREDNESS (HALLER MEMO 10/31/79)
As you' recuested, we have reviewed the subject draft and have the following comments.
In genere.1, the draft seems to be a well-reasoned paper. The faults we think we see with it are related more to some basic flaws in the Agency organi:ation than to any lack of sound logic on the part cf the writer.
There are four points, however, which we think should be thoroughly con-sidered before the paper is made final .
Fi rs t , it seems inconsistent to dismiss an SP-IE joint effort because this w vid introduce an additional licensing office in:: the mix, wher. )
the long-term recommendation (.!E responsibility) entails the same problem. ;
l Next, cption 2 appears to have some desirable cualities, its drawback of ;
adding another licensing office notwithstanding. Ament others', the fact tnet the Energency Preparedness function would be consolidated and thus easy to transfer if the recommendation of Kemeny, et al ., are acc.epted may have seme merit.
Next, cption 2, the NRR-!E combination, puts NRR in the materials saf ety and sa feguards, business and may thus be inconsister.t with the Energy ,
Recrgani:ation Act of 1974 -- although in the long run, this may be a desirr.bl e development.
Lest, under options 3 and 4, the reccmmendations of the draft, it is no: citar to us what, if anything, happens to SP.
