l MEMORANDUM TO:
L. Joseph Callen, EDO Jesse L. Funches, CFO Anthony Galante, CIO f,
i FROM:
Commissioner Nils J. Diaz J
SUBJECT:
OFFICE OF NATIONAL NUCL R MATERIALS Even after the Commission rejected the proposal, I have learned recently that the staff is continuing to consider the proposal to combine the Office of State Programs (OSP) into the Office of Nuclear Materials Safety and Safeguards (NMSS). The Commission rejected this proposal in SECY-97-264 and I continue to believe that it is a mistake. I understand that the i
latest consideration of the integration of OSP into NMSS is being driven to help the NRC achieve the agency-wide supervisor / manger-to-employee ratio target of one l
supervisor / manager for every eight NRC employees. I believe a way of achieving this would be to combine the relevant functions of the Division of Industrial and Medical Nuclear Safety and the Division of Waste Management into the Office of State Programs to create an Office of National Nuclear Materials Safety. I believe that this proposal should be considered by the Executive Committee as a means of meeting this supervisor / manager-to-employee ratio while
/
continuing to recognize the importance of NRC's special relationship with the Agreement States.
