SUMMARY

OF WORKSHOP WITH THE NUCLEAR ENERGY INSTITUTF (NEI) REGARDING PERFORMANCE INDICATORS FOR ASSESSING RADIATION PROTECTION PROGRAMS On November 10,1998, representatives of the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) met with representatives of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) at the NRC's offices in Rockville, Maryland. Attachment 1 provides a list of workshop attendees.

The purpose of the works %p was to continue discussion and development of performance indicators (PI) to be used by the NRC to help assess radiation protection programs at power reactors.

There was a general discussion about the options for the level of detail to be used in reporting the Pls. The Pls could be broken into separate defined items or summed under the category of public or occupational dose. It was agreed that no further discussion on this issue was warranted since it will likely be resolved by senior management.

NEl is still working to obtain data from their working group member plants in order to attempt to verify and validate draft Pls against historical events, plant operating experience, and regulatory violations. This effort will help support the validation and verification efforts for the Pls, prior to implementation.
