Section C - Description / Specifications / Work Statement C.1 _ Statement of Work C.1.1 Background it is important that a viable nuclear power option be reestablished to support future electrical power generation. Low electrical growth rates, active conservation e fforts , and peak load leveling notwithstanding, many utilities predict an electrical generation shcrtfall to occu- in the mid 1990's unless new power plants can be built quickly and economically. Coal and nuclear power plants are the two major options available to satisfy the base plant power needs cf the 1990's.

To address the need for a viable nuclear power generation option, the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), as directed by its ALWR Utility Steering Consnittee, has embarked on the EPRI/ Industry Advanced LightWaterReactor(ALWR) Program. The ALWR Program has been develcped recognizing that for new nuclear plants to be operational in the mid 1990's, they must be based on proven light water reactor technology, considering the important tecinicalt lessons learned from the extensive industry experience in constructine, licensing, operating, and maintaining the present generation of neclear plants. It is EPRI's objective for the ALWR Program to develop improved light water reactor

c f... ..

designs with stabilized regulatory requirements. The designs are to be safer, easier to construct, simpler configuration, easier to operate and mainta in, and mare reliable then current nuclear power plants. In addition, investor the ALWR Program is placing.special emphasis on reducing plant risks.

The output Comission Regulatory of the ALWR Program includes a utility reviewed and Nuclear nuclear power plants. (NRC) approved Requirements Document for future licensable plant facility Thethat Requirements Document will define a complete is: (1) less subject to accidents; (2) more tolerant of operating transients; (3) simplified compared to current operability plants with respect to constructability, maintainabil_ity, and (4) b65ed on fully proven technology; and (5) lower in lifetine costs than current plants.

It is intended that the ALWR Requirements Document will be prepared by EPRI, reviewed by both the

' utilities and nuclear industry, and approved by the NRC.

C.I.2 Work Required C.1.2.1 Objective Contractor shall provide an independent assessment of the effectivene,ss of the "ALWR Requirements Document." -

C.I.2.2 _ Scope of Work

, - Contractor shall review Requirements Document to determine and

~

report whether it is possible for a competent designer following and adhering to the requirements to generate design specifications end a design for an entire nuclear power plant. Such a power plant would include NSSS, BOP, the layout of buildings, systems and equipment and connections and the design would:

1.

Address NAC Regulations, Ccmmission policies, the Standard Review Plan, Regulatory G.uides resolutions to generit safety issues applicable to future designs and

2. Be expected to incorporate improvements based on lessons learned and operating experience of the current generation of LWRs such that the plant design could be: ,

a.

greatly simplified compared to current piants with respect o constructability, maintainability and operability. '.

b. less subject to accidents,
c. stable during operating transients,
d. low in core melt frequency

AUTHORITY: Sec. 8, Pub. L.95-601, adding Sec.170A to Pub. L.83-703, 68 Stat. 919, as amended (42 U.S.C. ch.14) 520-1.5401 Scope and Policy (a) It is the policy of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to avoid, eliminate or neutralize contractor organizational conflicts of interest. The NRC achieves this objective by requiring all prospective contractors to submit information describing relationships, if any, with organizations or persons' (including those regulated by NRC) which may give rise to actual or potential conflicts of interest in the event of contract award.

(b) Contractor conflict of interest determinations cannot be made automatically or routinely; the application of sound judgment on virtually a case-by-case basis is necessary if the policy is to be applied so as to satisfy the overall public interest. It is not possible to prescribe l

in advance a specific method or set of criteria which would serve to identify and resolve all of the contractor conflict of interest situations l which might arise; however, examples are provided in these regulations l

to guide application of the policy. NRC contracting and program officials i

must be alert to other situations which may warrant application of this policy guidance. The ultimate test is: Might the contractor, if awarded the contract, be placed in a position where its judgment may be biased, '

or where it may have an unfair competitive advantage?

(c) The conflict of interest rule contained in this subpart applies to contractors and offerors only. Individuals or firms who have other relationships with NRC (e.g., parties to a licensing proceeding) are not covered by this regulation. This rule does not apply to the acquisition of consulting services through the personnel appointment process, NRC l

l _ __

7590-01 agreements with other government agencies, international organizations, or state, local or . foreign governments; separate procedures for avoiding conflicts of interest will be employed in such agreements, as appropriate.

120-1.5402 Definitions

-(a) " Organizational conflicts of interest" means that a relationship exists whereby a contractor or prospective contractor has present or planned interests related to the work to be performed under an NRC contract which: (1) May diminish its capacity to give impartial, technically sound, objective assistance and advice or may otherwise result in a -

' biased work product, or (2) may result in its being given an unfair -

competitive advantage.

(b) "Research" means any scientific or technical work involving theoretical analysis, exploration, or experimentation.

(c) " Evaluation activities" means any effort involving the appraisal of a technology, process, product, or policy.

(d) " Technical consulting and management support services" means internal assistance to a component of the NRC in the formulation or administration of its programs, projects, or policies which normally require the contractor to be given access to information which has not been made available to the public or proprietary information. Such services typically include assistance in the preparation of program plans; and preparation of preliminary designs, specifications, or statements of work. -

(e') " Contract" means any contract, agreement, or other arrangement with the NRC except as provided in Section 20-1.5401(c).

(f) " Contractor" means any person, firm, unincorporated association, joint venture, co-spons.or, partnership, corpo.stion, affiliates thereof, ,

or their successors in interest, including their chief executives, directors, key personnel (identified in the contract), proposed consultants or subcontractors, which is a party to a contract with the NRC.

(g) " Affiliates" means business concerns which are affiliates of ~

each other when either directly or indirectly one concern or individual controls or has the power to control another, or when a third party controls or has the power to control both (41 CFR 51-1.606-1(e)).

.(h)' " Subcontractor" means any subcontractor of any tier which performs work under a contract with the NRC except subcontracts for supplies and subcontracts in amounts of $10,000 or less.

(i) " Prospective contractor" or " offeror" means any person, firm, unincorporated association, joint venture, partnership, corporation, or affiliates thereof, including its chief executive, directors, key personnel (ioentified in the proposal), proposed consultants, or subcontractors, submitting a bid or proposal, solicited or unsolicited, to the NRC to cttain a contract. -

2

7590-01 (j) " Potential conflict of interest" means that a factual situation exists that suggests (indicates) that an actual conflict of interest may arise frcm award of a proposed contract. The term " potential conflict of interest" is used to signify those situations which merit investigation 1 prior to contract award in order to ascertain whether award would give rise to an actual conflict or which must be reported to the contracting officer for investigation if they arise during contract performance.

I20-1.5403 Criteria for recognizing contractor organizational conflicts of interest (a) General. Two questions will be asked in determining whether actual or potential organizational conflicts of interest exist: (1) Are there conflicting roles which might bias a contractor's judgment in relation to its work for the NRC7 (2) May the contractor be given an unfair competitive advantage based on the performance of the contract?

The ultimate determination by NRC as to whether organizational conflicts of interest exist will be made in light of comon sense and good business judgment based upon the relevant facts disclosed and the work to be perfonned. While it is difficult to identify and to prescribe in advance a specific method for avoiding all of the various situations or relationships which might involve potential organizational conflicts of interest, NRC personnel will pay particular attention to proposed contractual requirements which call for the rendering of advice, consultation or evaluation activities, or similar activities that lay direct groundwork for the NRC's decisions on regulatory activities, future procurements, and research programs.

(b) Situations or relationships which may give rise to organizational conflicts of interest. (1) The offeror or contractor shall disclose information concerning relationships which may give rise to organizational conflicts of interest under the following circumstances:

(i) Where the offeror or contractor provides advice and recomendations to the NRC in a technical area in which it is also providing consulting assistance in the same arec to any organization regulated by the NRC.

(ii) Where the offeror or contractor provides advice to the NRC on the same or similar matter in which it is also providing assistance to any organization regulated by the NRC.

(iii) Where the offeror or contractor evaluates its own products or services, or the products or services of another entity where the offeror or contractor has been substantially involved in their development or marketing.

(iv) Where the award of a contract would otherwise result in placing the offeror or contractor in a conflicting role in which its judgment may be biased in relation to its work for the NRC or may otherwise result in an unfair competitive advantage for the offeror or contractor.

~ . . - - _ . _ - _ _ _

7590-01 b

(2) The contracting officer may request specific information from an offeror or contractor or may require special contract provisions such as provided in 520-1.5405-2 in the following circumstances:

(i) Where the offeror or contractor prepares specifications which are to be used in competitive procurements of products or services covered by such specifications.

(ik) Where the offeror or contractor prepares plans for specific approaches or methodologies that are to be incorporated into competitive procurements using such approaches or methodologies.

(iii) Where the offeror or contractor is granted access to information not available to the public concerning NRC plans, policies, or programs which could form the basis for a later procurement action.

(iv) Where the offeror or contractor is granted access to proprietary information of its competitors.

(v) Where the award of a contract might otherwise result in placing the offeror or contractor in a conflicting role in which its judgment may be biased in relation to its work for the NRC or may otherwise result in an unfair competitive advantage for the offeror or contractor.

(c) Policy application guidance. The following examples are illustrative only and are not intended to identify and resolve all contractor organizational conflict of interest situations. (1) Example.

The XYZ Corp., in response to a request for proposal (RFP), proposes to undertake certain analyses of a reactor component as called for in the RFP. .The XYZ Corp. is one of several companies considered to be technically well qualified. In response to the inquiry in the RFP, the XYZ Corp.

advises that it is currently performing similar-analyses for the reactor manufacturer.

Guidance. An NRC contract for that particular work normally would not be awarded to the XYZ Corp. because it would be placed in a position in which its judgment could be biased in relationship to its work for NRC. Since there are other well-qualified companies available, there would be no reason for considering a waiver of the policy.

(2) Example. The ABC Corp., in response to a RFP, proposes to perform certain analyses of a reactor component which are unique to one type of advanced reactor. As is the case with other technically qualified companies responding to the RFP, the ABC Corp. is performing various projects for several different utility clients. None of the ABC Corp.

projects have any relationship to .the work called for in the RFP Based on the NRC evaluation, the ABC Corp. is considered to be the best qualified company to perform the work outlined in the RFP.

0

  • 7590-01 Guidance. An NRC contract normally could be awarded to the ABC Corp. because no conflict of interest exists which would motivate bias with respect to the work. An appropriate clause would be included in the contract to preclude the ABC Corp. from subsequently contracting for work during the performance of the NRC contract with the private sector which could create a conflict. For example, ABC Corp. would be precluded from the performance of similar work for the company developing the advanced reactor mentioned in the example.

(3) Example. As a result of operating problems in a certain type of commercial nuclear facility, it is imperative that NRC secure specific data on various operational aspects of that type of plant so as to assure adequate safety protection of the public. Only one manufacturer has extensive experience with that type of plant. Consequently, that company is the only one with whom NRC can contract which can develop and conduct the testing programs required to obtain the data in reasonable .

time. That company has a definite interest in any NRC decisions that might result from the data produced because those decisions affect the reactor's design and thus the catpany's costs.

Guidance. This situation would place the manufacturer in a role in '

twhich its judgment could be biased in relationship to its work for NRC.

Since the nature of the work required is vitally important in terms of ,

NRC's responsibilities and no reasonable alternative exists, a waiver of the policy may be warranted. Any such waiver shall be fully documented and coordinated in accordance with the waiver provisions of this policy with particular attention to the establishment of protective mechanisms to guard against bias.

, (4) Example. The ABC Co. submits a proposal for a new system for evaluating a specific reactor component's performance for the purpose of developing standards that are important to the NRC program. The ABC Co.

has advised NRC that it intends to sell the new system to industry once its practicability has been demonstrated. Other companies in this business are using older systems for evaluation of the specific reactor component.

Guidance. A contract could be awarded to the ABC Co. provided that the contract stipulates that no information produced under the contract will be used in the contractor's private activities Lnless such information has been reported to NRC. Information which is reported to NRC by contractors will normally be disseminated by NRC to others so as to preclude an unfair competitive advantage that might otherwise accrue. When NRC furnishes information to the contractor for the performance of contract '

work, it shall not be used in the contractor's private activities unless such information is generally available to others. Further, the contract will stipulate that the contractor will inform the NRC contracting officer of all situations in which the information developed under the  !

i contract is proposed to be used.

l 7590-01 (5) Example. The ABC Corp., in response to a RFP proposes to assemble a map showing certain seismological features of the Appalachian fold belt. In accordance with the representation in the RFP and

$ 20-1.5403(b)(1)(1), ABC Corp. informs the NRC that it is presently doing seismological studies for several utilities in the Eastern United States but none of the sites are within the geographic area contemplated by the NRC study.

Guidance. The contracting officer would nomally conclude that award of a contract would not place ABC Corp. in a conflicting role where its judgment might be biased. The work for others clause of 120-1.5405-1(c) would preclude ABC Corp. from accepting work during the term of the NRC contract which could create a conflict of interest.

(d) Other considerations. (1) The fact that the NRC can identify and later avoid, eliminate, or neutralize any potential organizational conflicts arising from the performance of a contract is not relevant to a determination of the existence of such conflicts prior to the award of a contract.

(2) It is not relevant that the contractor has the professional reputation of being able to resist temptations which arise from organizational conflicts of interest, or.that a follow-on procurement is not involved, or that a contract is awarded on a competitive or a sole source basis.

520-1.5404 Representation (a) The following procedures are designed to assist the NRC contracting officer in determining whether situations or relationships exist which may constitute organizational conflicts of interest with respect to a particular offeror or contractor.

(b) Representation procedure. The following organizational conflicts of interest representation provision shall be included in all solicitations and unsolicited proposals for: (1) Evaluation services or activities; (2) technical consulting and management support services; (3) research; and (4) other contractual situations where special organizational conflicts of interest provisions are noted in the solicitation and would be included in toe resulting contract. This representation requirement shall also apply to all modifications for additional effort under the contract except those issued under the " changes" clause. Where, however, a statement of the type required by the organizational conflicts of interest representation provision has previously been submitted with regard to the contract being modified, only an updating of such statement shall be required.

7590-01 ORGANIZATIONAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST REPRESENTATION I represent to the best of my knowledge and belief that:

The award to of a contract or the modification of an existing contract does ( ) or does not ( ) involve situations or relationships of the type set forth in 41 CFR S20-1.5403(b)(1).

(c) Instructions to offerors. The following shall be included in all NRC solicitations: (1) If the representation as completed indicates that situations or relationships of the type set forth in 41 CFR 5 20-1.5403(b)(1) are involved, or the contracting officer otherwise determines that potential organizational conflicts exist, the offeror shall provide a statement in writing which describes in a concise manner all relevant facts bearing on his representation to the contracting officer. If the contracting officer determines that organizational conflicts exist, the following actions may be taken: (1)Imposeappropriate conditions which avoid such conflicts, (ii) disqualify the offeror, or (iii) determine that it is otherwise in the best interest of the United States to seek award of the contract under the waiver provisions of 5 20-1.5411.

(2) The refusal to provide the representation required by 520-1.5404(b) or upon request of the contracting officer the facts required by 520-1.5404(c), shall result in disqualification of the offeror for award. The nondisclosure or misrepresentation of any relevant interest may also result in the disqualification of the offeror for award; or if such nondisclosure or misrepresentation is discovered after award, the resulting contract may be terminated. The offeror may also be disqualified from subsequent related NRC contracts and be subject to such other remedial actions provided by law or the resulting contract.

(d) The offeror may, because of actual or potential organizational conflicts of interest, propose to exclude specific kinds of work from the statements of work contained in a RFP unless the RFP specifically prohibits such exclusion. Any such proposed exclusion by an offeror will be considered by the NRC in the evaluation of proposals. If the NRC considers the proposed excluded work to be an essential or integral part of the required work and its exclusion would work to the detriment of the competitive posture of the other offerors, the proposal must be rejected as unacceptable.

(e) The offeror's failure to execute the representation required by subsection (b) above with respect to invitation fcr bids will be considered to be a minor informality, and the offeror will be permitted to correct the omission.

f 20-1.5405 Contract clauses i 20-1.5405-1 General contract clause 7590-01 All contracts of the types set forth in520-1.5404(b) shall include the following clauses:

-(a) Purpose. The primary purpose of this clause is to aid in ensuring that the contractor: (1) Is not placed in a conflicting role because of current or planned interest (financial, contractual, organizational, or otherwise) which relate to the work under this contract, and (2) does not obtain an unfair competitive advantage over other parties by virtue of .its performance of this contract.

(b) Scope. The restrictions described herein shall apply to performance or participation by the contractor as defined in 41 CFR 5 20-1.5402(f) in the actitities covered by this clause.

(c) Work for others. Notwithstanding any other provision of this contract, during the term of this contract, the contractor agrees to s forego entering into consulting or other contractual arrangements with any firm or organization, the result of which may give rise to a conflict of interest with respect to the work being perfomed under this contract.

The contractor shall ensure that all employees who are employed full time under this contract and employees designated as key personnel, if any, under this contract abide by the provision of this clause. If the contractor believes with respect to itself or any such employee that any proposed consultant or other contractual arrangement with any firm or organization may involve a potential conflict of interest, the contractor shall obtain the written approval of the contracting officer prior to execution of such contractual arrangement.

(d) Disclosure after award. (1) The contractor warrants that to the best of its knowledge and belief and except as otherwise set forth' in this contract, it does not have any organizational conflicts of interest, as defined in 41 CFR 520-1.5402(a).

(2) The contractor agrees that if after . award it discovers organizational conflicts of interest with respect to this contract, it shall make an imediate and full disclosure in writing to the contracting officer.

This statement shall include a description of the action which the contractor has taken or proposes to take to avoid or mitigate such conflicts. The NRC may, however, teminate the contract for convenience if it deems such termination to be in the best interests of the government.

(e) Access to and use of information. (1) If the contractor in the performance of this contract obtains access to information, such as NRC plans, policies, reports, studies, financial plans, internal data protected by the Privacy Act of 1974 (Pub.

I 20-1.5406 Evaluation, findings, and contract award i

The contracting officer will evaluate all relevant facts submitted by an offerer pursuant to tne representation reouirements of 120-1.5404(b) i anc ether relevant information. After evaluating this information i

against the criteria of I 20-1.5403, a finding will be made by the contracting l officer whether crganizational conflicts of interest exist with respect

) to a particular offeror.

j If it has been determined that conflicts of interest exist, then tne contracting officer shall eitner:

, (b) Avoid or eliminate such conflicts by appropriate measures; or (c) Award the contract under the waiver provision of f20-1.5411.

120-1.5407 Conflicts identified after award.

If potential organizational conflicts of interest are identified after award with respect to a particular contractor, the contracting .

officer determines that such conflict: do, in fact, exist and that it would not be in the best interests of tne government to terminate the contract as provided in the clauses required by 520-1.5405, the contracting officer will take. every reasonable action to avoid, eliminate, or, af ter obtaining a waiver in accordance with 620-1.5411, neutralize the effects of the identified conflict.

120-1.5408 (Reserved) 520-1.5409 (Reserved) 520-1.5410 Subcontracts i The contracting officer shall require offerors and contractors to submit a representation statement in accordance with 120-1.5404(b) from subcontractors and consultants. The contracting officer shall require the contractor to include contract clauses in accordance with ,s 20-1.5405 in consultant agreements or subcontracts involving performance of work under a prime contract covered by this subsection.

I20-1.5411 Waiver In the first instance, determination with respect to the need to seek a waiver for specific contract awards shall be made by the contracting i officer with the advice and concurrence of the program office director and the Office of Executive Legal Director. Upon the recommendation of the contracting officer, and after consultation with the Office of the '

Geheral Counsel, the EDO may waive the policy in specific cases if he determines that it is in the best interest of the United States to do So.

Such action shall be strictly limited to those situations in which:

(1) The work to be performed under contract is vital to the NRC program; (2) the work Cannot be satisfactorily performed except by a contractor whose interests give rise to a question of conflict of interest; and (3) contractual and/or technical review and supervision methods can be employed by NRC to neutralize the conflict. For any such waivers, the justification and approval cocuments shall be placed in the Public Document Room.

State that if NRC objections cannot be covered in this manner, NRC can refuse to publish the report. In the case of' DOE / National Laboratory reports , the DOE Operations Office Manager responsible for that !abora-tory should be informed by the NRC Office Director or Regional Adminis-trator of the decision and the reasons therefor, with a copy to the Laboratory Director. In the case of another Federal agency, a State, or a private contractor, the person who executed the contract should simi-larly be informed by the NRC Contracting Officer. The contractor is then free to publish without NRC identification of the report. Project manager or higher level decisions may be appealed to the NRC Executive Director for Operations.

D. PUBLISHING UNCLASSIFIED INFORMATION IN OPEN LITERATURE AND PRESENTING PAPERS If the contractor's principal investigator is to be allowed to publish in the open literature instead of submitting a final report and/or present papers at public or association meetings during the course of the work, add the following statement to the Statement of Work:

1 The principal investigator (s) may publish the results of this work in the open literature instead of submitting a final report and/or present papers at public or association meetings at interim stages of the work.

If the project manager wants to review the paper or journal article prior to presentation or submission for publication, state this in the Statement of Work, as follows:

The principal investigator (s) may publish the results of this work in the open literature instead of submitting a final report and/or pre-sent papers at public or association meetings at interim stages of the wo'rk, if the article or paper has been reviewed by the NRC project 3 Approved: August 29, 1984

The applicable procedures set forth in Chapters NRC-3206 or NRC-1102 must be followed.

If agreement is not reached, NRC may also ask that the paper include in addition to the standard statement " Work supported by the U.S.

Nuclear Regulatory Commission," any caveats deemed necessary to cover NRC objections. If NRC object. ions cannot be covered in this manner, NRC can refuse' to authorize publication in the open litera-ture and/or presentation of papers.

In the latter case, NRC will inform the contractor of the decision, as stated above for formal reports (see Section C, paragraphs 3 and 4).

The contractor is then ' free to publish without NRC identification of the in forma tion . This will not affect payment of the contract work costs.

Project manager or higher level decisions may be appealed to the NRC Executive Director for Operations.

If the contractor proposes to publish in the open literature or present the information at. meetings in addition to submitting the required tech-nical reports, approval of the proposed article or presentation should be obtained from the NRC project manager. The NRC project manager shall

. either approve the material as submitted, approve it subject to NRC-suggested ' revisions , or disapprove it. In any event, a project manager may disapprove or delay presentation .or publication of papers on infor-mation that is subject to Commissioner approval that has not been ruled upon or which has been disapproved.

(See Chapter 3206 for provisions relating to payment of page charges and travel costs for presentation of papers.)

E TYPOGRAPHY The text of reports must be single spaced on 8 x 11-in. paper, unless otherwise specifically authorized. Occasionally , reports with many sym-bols and mathematical expressions may require one and one-half spacing to . provide for superscripts and subscripts . This spacing should be allowed where needed, but should be considered an exception, not the standa rd .

J. COORDINATION OF PRESS OR OTHER MEDI A RELEASES OF UNCLASSI-FIED INFORMATION A contractor may request permission to issue a press or other media release on the work being done. Such request shall be made tothe project manager, who will consult with his/her management and with the Office of Public Affairs. The contractor may not issue a press release on nonroutine information ~ without this prior coordination. This coordination may be accomplished by telephone, with the NRC project manager respon-sible for expeditious handling. Decisions not to release information or delays in handling by the project manager may be appealed to the NRC Executive Director for Operations.

PUBLICATION OF TECHNICAL REPORTS PREPARED 'BY NRC CONTRACTORS, INCLUDING REPORTS PREPARED UNDER OR PURSUANT TO INTERAGENCY AGREEMENTS NRC Appendix 3202 PART VI HANDLING OF UNCLASSIFIED INFORMATION ON NRC COOPERATIVE PROGRAMS WITH FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS AND ORGANIZATIONS AND WITH U.S. INDUSTRY The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has requested that its Program Offices establish, to the extent feasible, cooperative nuclear safety research programs that involve either or both U.S. industry and foreign governments and orga-nizations . Such involvement includes monetary contributions , information exchange, and comments on program plans and results. This is authorized in 42 U.S.C. 5801. To this end, international and U.S. industry agreements have been signed that provide for transmitting unclassified information from NRC to participants. These procedures apply only to NRC-managed work not programatically funded by DOE.

The interests of all NRC cooperative nuclear safety research program partici-pants are served best by early, rapid dissemination for comment of informa-tion on these programs developed for NRC by NRC contractors. This can be accomplished by distribution of " Draft Preliminary Reports (or Codes)" for comment for a specified period of time, followed by issue as formal NUREG/CR reports , with t!.e concurrence of the participants. Specific procedures for accomplishing these goals and for transmitting information prepared by the NRC and DOE facilities and contractors and their subcontractors working on these programs are presented in the following sections. The procedures de-tailed here have been agreed to by DOE and have been provided to the responsible DOE Operations Officers and NRC Program and Project Managers as guidance.

A. PREPARATION OF DR AFT PRELIMINARY REPORTS FOR COMMENT The first issuance of information by a contractor shall be designated "D raf t Preliminary Report (or Code)," and shall include the cover sheet t.hown in Exhibit 24.

The following notice is to be printed on the bottom of the cover sheet (Exhibit 24):

Any problem in this regard shall be brought to the attention of the NRC project manager, who will consult with the NRC legal staff.

The " Draft Preliminary Report (or Code)" shall be submitted by first class or express mail by the contractor to the NRC project manager, with the letter shown in Exhibit 25, in the number of copies specified by the project manager (in most instances this will be fewer than 20 copies).

The contractor (DOE facility, contractor or subcontractor or other con-tractor) may retain copies only for internal use. DOE facilities and contractors and their subcontractors shall not distribute copies of this draf t report to DOE /TIDC. Draft reports may be distributed to interested DOE program offices. Subsequent issues of the information shall also be designated " Draft Preliminary Report (or Code)" until the NRC project manager authorizes preparation of a NUREG/CR report.

"Draf t Preliminary Reports (or Codes)" shall not be identified as NUREG/CR reports or carry any contractor report number or NRC dis-tribution codes.

B. DISTRIBUTION BY NRC PROJECT MANAGERS The NRC project manager will distribute the copies received only to (1) the participants in the program, (2) the NRC staff with a need-to-know, and (3) others authorized by the program or project manager. Trans-mittal to participants shall be by. first class or express mail, including air mail to foreign participants . If premium cost mail services are to be used, a Division Director or comparable or higher authority must certify to the need on NRC Form 420, " Request for Premium Cost Mail Se rvice .

They shall not be given standard report nomenclature until the NRC project manager authorizes publication as a NUREG/CR report.

At that time , the contractor may add its own designation below the NUREG/CR number, as shown in Exhibits 3 and 4.

E. MAILING TO PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS The physical transmission of reports from NRC to program participants shall be handled by the Document Management Branch (DMB), Division of Technical Information and Document Control (TIDC), based on address labels of participants supplied by the project manager. The transmittal sheet shown in Exhibit 26 shall be used to transmit the documents and the labels to DMB.
