r I have enclosed marked up copies of last years Green Book write ups.
You will notice that the only changeisfrom last years green book are new numbers (where they were available) and the elimination of the budget year
+ 1 (FY 1986). Please review to see if the write up conforms to present and future program objectives and provide coments back to me by December 23, 1983. After I receive your comments I will send out a revised version with your comments incorporated,before the final printing.

The Progran Technical Support offices are integral to the agency's process of licensing and regulating nuclear facilities and materials for the protection of public health, safety ano environment. These programs are the Advisory Ccamittee on Reactor Safeguards (ACRS), the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Panel (ASLBP), the Atomic Safety and Licensing Appeal Panel (ASLAP),
Investigations (01), Executive Legal Director (ELD), International Programs (0IP), State Programs (SP), and Analysis and Evaluation of Operational Data (AE00). These programs will continue the conduct of and the legal representation at hearings to license the operation of nuclear power plants.
Post-OL activities and assessment of poten'.ially significant nuclear related operational events are emphasized. Staffing decreases from FY 4983 reflect the decreasing number of Operating Licenses to be granted each year. The "

Procram Technical Succort Procrans - continued of the Atonic Energy Act of 1954 also requires that the ACRS advise the Commission with respect to the safety of operating reactors, and Public Law 95-209 requires an annual report to the Congress on the NRC Safety Research Program. The ACRS reviews requests for preapplication site and standard plant approvals; applications for construction permits and operating licenses for production and utilization facilities; amendments to operating licenses for power reactors, test reactors, spent fuel reprocessing plants and waste disposal facilities; and assists in matters related to DOE nuclear facilities as outlined in the Menorandum of Understanding dated February 24, 1978.
- b. The Atomic Safety Licensing Biard Panel (ASLBP) is by statute one of the principal adjudicatory offices of the NRC. Three-member Boards drawn from the Panel conduct adjudicatory hearings pursuant to the Administrative Procedure Act, the Atonic Energy Act and the National Environmental Policy Act. Boards hear and decide issues granting, suspending, revoking or amending licenses to construct and operate nuclear power plants and other nuclear facilities.
Hearings address matters such as health, safety, environment, economic considerations, including civil penalties, and antitrust. Currently, the Boards' workload includes a large number of cases involving applications by j utilities for nuclear power plant operating licenses. In addition, the ASLBP
- conducts any other proceedings which the Commission may direct or the regulations of the agency may require.
- c. The Atomic Safety and Licensing Appeal Panel (ASLAP) is administratively established and requires Congressional notification of any revision to the organizational structure of the panel. In three-member Appeal Boards, the ASLAP reviews all initial decisions and certain interlocutory orders of Administrative Law Judges and Atomic Safety and Licensing Boards in proceedings on license applications for production and utilization facilities (under 10 CFR Part 50) and such other proceedinos as the Commission may specify. The ASLAP holds appellate reviews according to the applicable provisions of the Commission's rules of practice.
- d. Investigations was reorganized and an independent office established in FY 1982 to conduct, supervise and provide quality control for investigations of licensees, applicants, contractors and vendors including investigations of all allegations of wrong doing by other than NRC employees. Ouality control procedures are being developed, administered and maintained to oversee the initiation, conduct and supervision of all inquiries and investigations. The IE and Regional inspection program is monitored to determine possible areas for investigations. Systems and procedures are being established to ensure that appropriate organization components of NRC are promptly notified and fully informed of those matters under investigation which may affect public health and safety and other aspects of the NRC mission. ,
)
- e. The Executive Legal Director (ELD) is responsible for providing legal advice and services to the Executive Director for Operations and to offices which report to that official. The diverse responsibilities of ELD are ;
performed by four divisions: Hearing Division, Regulations Division, Regional Operations and Enforcement Division and the Operations and Administration Aas i

Proaram Technical Support Proarans - continued Division. ELD provides legal representation of the NRC sta#f at administra-tive proceedings involving the licensing of nuclear facilities and materials, enforcement actions and rulemaking. Legal advice and services are provided at Headquarters and in the Regions for health and safety, environnental impact and antitrust aspects of licensing and regulation; research programs; general I
agency administration, includinc contracts, patents, personnel, security and labor relations; safeguards and waste management programs; and the export /
-import licensing program. This office has a major role in nuclear power plant amendment proceedings, which have increased with the addition of on-line nuclear power plants,
- f. International Proarams (0!P) was established in 1976 to develop and direct a program of cooperation with foreign regulatory agencies and to administer the Conmission's responsibilities in the areas of non-proliferation, inter-
- national safeguards, nuclear exports and imports. OIP keeps the Commission and staff infomed about international matters, maintains liaison with other i U.S. agencies, and is key to facilitating the exchange of nuclear health and safety related information between the U.S. and foreign countries. It i reviews, processes and issues licenses for export of nuclear reactors, fuel :
and components; consults with the Departments of Energy and Comerce on nuclear related exports which they approve; coordinates the policy aspects of -
NRC's international safeguards and physical security activities; participates ;
in implementation of the U.S./IAEA safeguards agreement; and is the liaison to -
the U. S. Intelligence Community for nuclear relatec intelligence matters.
- g. State Proarans (OSP) was established in 1976 to develop and direct a program of cooperation and liaison with states, local governments and interstate organizations. The office administers the State Agreements program established under the provisions o' Section 274 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended. Twenty-six Agreement States now administer about 12,000 licenses involving the use of radioactive materials in medicine, industry, training and research. OSP and the Regions provide liaison to states and state-related organizations; provides training and assistance to state and , -
local governments in radiation control; and coordinates these efforts with other NRC offices and U.S. Government agencies having state and interstate responsibilities. As required by the Atomic Energy Act the Office and the
- Regions perform periodic reviews of Agreement State radiation control 1
' programs, including regulation of uranium milling and low level waste, to '
determine their adequacy to protect health and safety and compatability with the NRC program. OSP administers the Price-Anderson indemnity and nuclear property insurance programs for nuclear facilities; performs financial '
qualifications reviews in limited circumstances and studies of financing decomissioning of nuclear facilities; and administers the program for transferring to states the responsibilities for need for pour reviews.
- h. Analysis and Evaluation of Operational Data (AE00) collects, stores, analyzes, evaluates, and feeds back information on operational experience to identify significant events and situations that warrant detailed examination.
These should events and situations be corrected. arehas The office further evaluated the lead to determine responsibility what hoblems for coordinating AE8 i L
