OCT 0 61988 MEMORANDUM FOR: Thomas E. Murley, Director Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation FROM:
Jack W. Roe, Director Division of Licensee Performance and Quality Evaluation, NRR
SUBJECT:
SUPf%RY OF MEETING WITH NUMARC AND INP0 REPRESENTATIVES REGARDING NRC REQUALIFICATION ALTERNATIVES A meeting was held with representatives of NUMARC and INPO on September 27, 1988, to continue discussions on alternative approaches for conducting the requalification programs. After a brief introduction, Ken Perkins, OLB Branch
]
Chief, gave brief description of the three alternatives presently being considered by the NRC.
These alternatives were:
(1) NRC continues present program of evaluating facility programs and conducting examinations (2) NRC determines acceptability of facility programs with the facility conducting examinations with NRC monitoring, and (3) NRC determines acceptability of facility programs and INP0/NUMARC managing the conduct of the examinations with NRC monitoring. Joe Colvin of NUMARC then discussed their position on i
alternative three. Handouts distributed at the meeting are enclosed, as is a list of attendees. There were no major concer,tual differences between the NRC, INPO and NUMARC concerning how alternative three might be implemented.
1 However, NUMARC/INP0 did have concerns as to their appropriate role in this process and to the net benefit to the industry or NUMARC/INPO.
It was agreed i
that it would be useful to continue these discussions at some date after the Connission briefing on October 7,1988.
