M.D. 5.6, IMPEP ESTIMATED DATE OF ISSUANCE:
October 1997 STATUTORY /JUDICAL DEADLINE:
None DESCRIPTION OF ACTION:
Under Section 274 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, the NRC is authorized to enter into agreements with the Governor of any State, whereby the State is authorized as an' Agreement State (A/S) to regulate the use of reactor-produced isotopes (byproduct materials), source materials, special nuclear materials in quantities not sufficient to form a critical mass, uranium mill tailings, and the disposal of low-level radioactive waste. The NRC periodically reviews each A/S program and actions taken by the State under its i
Agreement to ensure compliance with Section 274 of the Act. Under M.D. 5.6, the radiation control program reviews are performed in an integrated manner, using common performance indicators, to ensure that the public heulth and safety is being adequately protected. The objectives of IMPEP are to 1) establish the process by which NRC conducts its periodic assessment to determine the adequacy of NRC regional and A/S licensing and inspection programs; 2) provide NRC and A/S management with a more systematic and integrated approach to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of their nuclear materiallicensing and inspection programs; and 3) provide significant input in the regulatory decision-making process and indicate areas in which NRC and A/S should dedicate more resources or management attention.

Handbook on Nuclear Material Event Reporting ESTIMATED DATE OF lSSUANCE:
October 1997 STATUTORY / JUDICIAL DEADLINE:
None DESCRIPTION OF ACTION:
Under Section 274 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, the NRC is authorized to enter into agreements with the Governor of any State, whereby the State is authorized as an Agreement State (A/S) to regulate the use of reactor produced isotopes (byproduct materials), source materials, special nuclear materials in quantities not sufficient to form a critical mass, uranium mill tailings, and the disposal of low-level radioactive waste. The NRC periodically reviews each A/S program and actions taken by the State under its Agreement to ensure compliance with Section 274 of the Act. As part of the collective effort by NRC and the A/S to regulate nuclear facilities and nuclear materials, NRC and l
compatible A/S regulations require the reporting by the segulated community of incidents and events involving nuclear materials, incidents and events that have occurred in the A/S are included in the formal radiation control program reviews. The handbook provides guldance to Agreement States on reporting of event information to NRC. Summaries and reviews of operational events and experience for NRC licensees and A/S licensees will be published annually in NUREG-1272, and those that have been identified as abnormal occurrences will be made publicly available through NUREG-0090, Report to Congress on Abnormal Occurrences, published annually.
