Commissioner Carr referenced page 11-9 of draf t NUREG-ll50 which stated that the staff would develop and propose guidelines for Commission approval which will be used as a basis for determin-ing whether a level of safety ascribed to a plant is consistent with the safety goal policy.

He requested the staff to provide its schedule for submitting that paper.

(EDO)

(SECY Suspense:

The staff recommended to reserve time in mid-January 1987, to brief the Commission on the final version of draft NUREG-ll50, just prior to its publication.

(Subsequently, SECY tentatively scheduled the briefing for January 15, 1987.)
