INTRODUCTION This addendum is being provided to recast the Nuclear Regulatory Com-mission (NRC) budget for FY 1988-FY 1989, submitted to Congress in January 1987, to reflect the agency's new organizational structure approved by the Commission effective April 12, 1987. The addendum .

delineates the organizational changes in the agency and describes the

-3 shifts in responsibility and resources that have taken place. There I are no changes to the level of resources requested by the Commission ,

in NRC's FY 1988-FY 1989 budget request nor any changes in the activi- -

ties that will be carried out by the NRC.

The purpose of the reorganization is to better accommodate the changed nature of the agency's mission and workload through a more effective and efficient organizational structure. The responsibilities of the NRC have shifted from evaluation of construction permits and operat-ing license applications to the regulation of a maturing operating industry. As plants now being built are completed, the NRC will have progressively less regulatory involvement with large complex con-struction activities and considerably more involvement with such opera-tional safety issues as maintenance, aging, life extension, waste man- l agement, and other similar issues. The reorganization will more properly reflect our responsibilities as we see them today and into the 1990's.

The Commission expects the reorganization to: (1) enhance the safety of NRC licensed facilities primarily, by improving our ability to analyze plant performance and ensuring that management attention is devoted to significant issues; (2) simplify and streamline the NRC management structure; (3) improve consistency of and accountability for agency i actions; and (4) improve the quality and timeliness of communications ]

with the Congress, with other Federal, State, and local government {

entities; and with the public. j d

in the new organization, the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation is re- I sponsible and accountable for reactor licensing, inspection, and safe- J guards programs for reactors. The Office of Nuclear Materials Safety j and Safeguards has parallel responsibility and accountability for non- 1 reactor safety programs, including nuclear waste management. The re- i sponsibilities of the Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research are also i increased. The Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research is now responsible ]

for resolution of generic safety issues, including unresolved safet) j issues, and for the review of full-scope probabilistic risk assessments.

These assignments are intended to bring about a closer t{e between re-search programs and other agency safety programs. The role of. the Office for Analysis and Evaluation of Operational Data has been

{

strengthened and expanded to make the Office the focal point for the  !

continuing assessment of safety of operational facilities; it manages the review, analysis, and evaluation of reactor plant performance, and is responsible for the incident response program. The Offices of Inter-national Programs, State Programs, Public Affairs, and Congressional i

INTRODUCTION - Continued Affairs have been merged into the new Office of Governmental and Public Affairs, which reports directly to the Commission; this action reflects the importance that the Commission assign' to enhanced communications with the States, local communities, Indian Tribes, and  !

internationally. An Office of Special Projects, reporting directly to the Executive Director for Operations, was established and is l responsible for managing all aspects of the N R C's licensing and inspection efforts for nuclear power plants owned by the Tennessee Valley Authority and for the Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Plants. The f'

Office will be maintained until these projects can once again be handled within the normal organizational framework of our Nuclear

  • Reactor Regulation and Regional Offices. New Offices of Enforcement, Administration and Resources Management, Personnel, and Consoli-dation have also been established.

l NRC GOALS A. The United States Congress has determined that the safe use of nuclear power for peaceful purposes, particularly in the production of electricity, is a legitimate and important national goal. The Congress established the U.S. Nuclear Regu!atory Commission (NRC) to regulate those who commercially use or produce nuclear material A so' that the public health and safety, the common defense and T security, and the environment are protected.

3 B. To meet this Congressional mandate, the Commission has adopted the i

following broad goals as a basis for budgeting and future planning:

1 To ensure the safe operation of licensed facilities and quality construction of those to be licensed To improve regulation of the nuclear industry To protect the public from risks associated with the wide-scale use of nuclear materials To ensure the safe transportation, storage and disposal of nuclear wastes To provide appropriate safeguards for facilities and materials j To manage agency resources more effectively and efficiently C. In furtherance of these goals, this budget for the NRC:

Emphasizes safety first and foremost Continues the implementation of the Severe Accident Policy Statement initiated in FY 1986 Continues the Integrated Safety Assessment Program ' based upon the results of the pilot program Places more emphasis on establishing a regulatory environment that will encourage nuclear power plant standardization Contains a long-term program to prepare the NRC to review licensee requests to extend nuclear power plant lifetimes beyond their current license conditions Develops improved guidelines and procedures for future decom-missioning of power reactors i

r 7

s

NRC GOALS - CONTINUED Provides for review of applications for reactor operating licenses and standard plant designs Proposes the construction of additional thermal hydraulic test facilities at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory Expands the review, screening and analysis of operational data Provides for continuing analyses 'of and proper regulatory b

responses to the Chernobyl accident 4

- Provides for a stable research program essential for effective nuclear safety regulation, including continued NnC participa-tion in major international safety research efforts Provides for maintaining resident inspectors at all reactor sites Maintains an effective emergency response capability for reactor, materials, and fuel cycle incidents Provides for regulatory review of the Department of Energy's (

waste management and advanced reactor programs j Provides for the continued development of a framework for high. j level waste regulation and fulfillment of NRC's responsibili- i ties under the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982 l Provides full regulatory support for the implementation of the Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Amendments Act of 1985 Expands the regulatory oversight currently provided for nonreactor licensees Reflects significant savings in staff resources as a result of the consolidation of personnel into the new White Flint Building and other initiatives that increase productivity 1

SALARIES AND EXPENSES

SUMMARY

Estimates of Appropriation The budget estimates for salaries and expenses for FY 1988 provide for obligations of $427,800,000* to be funded in total by a new appropriation.

' U[ Estimates of Obligations and Outlays This section provides a summary of obligations by program, a summary of how these obligations will be financed, an estimate of outlays for salaries and expenses, a summary of obligations by function, the proposed appropriation language, and an analysis of the appropriation language. T'wo charts (pages 18 and 19) show the distribution of funds and personnel for FY 1988.

The summaries of obligations include the Reimbursable Program. The obligations related to this program are not financed by NRC's appro-priated funds, but are financed solely through reimbursable agreements with other Federal agencies.

The agency will deposit revenues derived from license, inspection, and user fees and enforcement actions in the Miscellaneous Receipts account

~

of the Department of Treasury.

The Summary of Obligations by Program, table (page 10), shows the agency's total obligations for Direct and Reimbursable Programs for FY 1987, FY 1988, and FY 1989.

ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED FY 1988 U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION APPROPRIATION LANGUAGE

1. FOR NECESSARY EXPENSES OF THE COMMISSION IN CARRYING OUT THE PURPOSES OF THE ENERGY REORGANIZATION ACT OF 1974, AS AMENDED, AND THE ATOMIC ENERGY ACT, AS AMENDED:

4 i 42 U.S.C. 5841 et. seq. '

42 U.S.C. 5841 et. seq., the Energy Reorganization Act of 1974,  !

  • established the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to perform all the licensing and related regulatory functions of the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Panel, the Atomic Safety and Licensing Appeal Panel, and the Advisory Commit 2e on Reactor Safeguards, and to j carry out the performance of other functions including research, for the purpose of confirmatory assessment related to licensing and other regulation, other activities, including research related to nuclear material safety and regulation under the provisions of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (42 U .S.C. 5801 et.

seq.).

2. EMPLOYMENT OF A LIENS: l l

42 U.S.C. 2201 (d) 42 U.S.C. 2201 (d) of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, authorizes the Commission to employ persons and fix their compen-sation without regard to civil service laws.

3. SERVICES AUTHORIZED BY 5 U.S.C. 3109:

5 U.S.C. 3109 provides in part that the head of an agency may procure by contract the temporary or intermittent services of experts or consultants when authorized by an appropriation.

4. PUBLICATION AND DISSEMINATION OF ATOMIC INFORMATION:

P 42 U .S . C . 2161 b 42 U.S.C. 2161 b directs the Commission that they shall be guided by the principle that the dissemination of scientific and technical information related to atomic energy should be permitted and en-couraged so as to provide that interchange of ideas and criticism which is essential to scientific and industrial progress and public understanding and to enlarge the fund of technical information.

5. PURCHASE, REPAIR, AND CLEANING OF UNIFORMS:

5 U . S . C . 5901 5 U.S.C. 5901 authorizes the annual appropriation of funds to each agency of the government as a uniform allowance.

15

6. OFFICI AL REPRESENTATION EXPENSES:

47 Comp. Gen. 657 43 Comp. Gen. 305 This language is required because of the established rule restric-ting an agency from charging appropriations with the cost of official representation unless the appropriations involved are g specifically available therefor. Congress has appropriated funds for official representation expenses to the NRC and N R C's predecessor AEC each year since FY 1950.

=

7. REIMBURSEMENTS TO THE GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION FOR SECURITY GUARD SERVICES:

34 Comp Gen. 42 This language is required because, under the provisions of the Federal Property and Administrative services Act of 1949, specific appropriation is made to GSA for carrying out the function of protecting public buildings and property, and therefore, NRC appropriations not specifically made available therefor may not be used to reimburse GSA for security guard services.

8. HIRE OF PASSENGER MOTOR VEHICLES AND AIRCRAFT:

31 U.S.C.1343 and 1344 31 U.S.C. 1343 and 1344 provide in effect that unless specific-ally authorized by the appropriation concerned or other law, nc, appropriation shall be expended to purchase or hire passenger motor vehicles for any branch of the Government.

9. TO REMAIN AVAILABLE UNTIL EXPENDED: I 31 U . S . C . 1301 l i

31 U.S.C. 1301 provides in part that no specific or indefinite j appropriation shall be construed to be available continuously without reference to a fiscal year unicss it is made in terms expressly providing that it shall continue to be available beyond the fiscal year for which the appropriation Act in which it is contained makes provision.

10. THAT FROM THIS APPROPRI ATION, TRANSFERS OF SUMS MAY BE MADE TO OTHER AGENCIES OF THE GOVERNMENT FOR THE PERFORMANCE OF THE WORK FOR WHICH THIS APPROPRIATION IS MADE, AND IN SUCH CASES, THE SUMS SO TRANSFERRED '

MAY BE MERGED WITH THE APPROPRI ATION TO WHICH TRANSFERRED:

64 Stat. 765, Sec.1210 16

64 Stat. 765, Sec. 1210 prohibits the transfer. of appropriated funds from one account to another or working fund except as authorized by law.

11. THAT MONEY RECEIVED BY THE COMMISSION FOR THE COOPERA-TlVE NUCLEAR SAFETY RESEARCH PROGRAM, SERVICES RENDERED TO FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS AND INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS, AND THE MATERI AL AND INFORMATION ACCESS AUTHORIZATION PROGRAMS INCLUDING CRIMINAL

,i HISTORY CHECKS UNDER SECTION 149 OF THE ATOMIC ENERGY ACT, AS AMENDED, MAY BE RETAINED AND USED FOR SALARIES AND EXPENSES ASSOCI ATED WITH THOSE

  • ACTIVITIES, NOTWITHSTANDING THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 3302 OF TITLE 31, UNITED STATES CODE, AND SHALL REMAIN AVAILABLE UNTIL EXPENDED:

26 Comp. Gen. 43 2 Comp. Gen. 775 Appropriated funds may not be augmented with funds from other sources unless specifically authorizcd by law.. Under the cooperative nuclear safety research prog ram, funds are received from foreign governments for their participation in NRC's reactor safety research experiments. The NRC would also be authorized to receive directly compensation from foreign governments and inter-national organizations for providing safety assistance and other services related to promoting the public health and safety. Funds are also received in the form of fees from licensees for the cost of security investigations and related processing associated with access to formula quantities of special nuclear material. These funds will be used to pay the related NRC processing costs and the agency performing the security investigations. Pu rsuant -. to P.L.99-399, Section 606, funds will be received in the form of fees from licensees for the cost of fingerprint examinations and criminal history checks of each individual granted access to safe-guards information or unescorted access to a nuclear power plant.

These funds will be used to pay for processing and performing the fingerprint examinations and criminal history checks. NRC will also p use the money currently collected under 10 CFR Part 25, to pay the NRC processing costs and the Office of Personnel Management for conducting background investigations used as a basis for NRC security clearances for designated licensee representatives and other personnel requiring access to classified information.

Specific responsibilities include reviewing applications and issuing licenses for reactor facilities and designs, as required by the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended; evaluating the health, safety, environmental, safeguards, and antitrust aspects of reactor P facilities; and ensuring that civilian reactor facilities are designed, constructed, and operated safely and are in compliance with agency regulations. i The nuclear reactor regulation programs are carried out by personnel at NRC Headquarters and at the agency's five Regional Offices in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania (Region 1); Atlanta, Georgia (Region ll); Glen Ellyn, Illinois (Region 111); Arlington, Texas (Region IV); and Walnut Creek, California (Region V).

The Nuclear Reactor Regulation Headquarters staff !s responsible for performing detailed safety, environmental, and antitrust reviews of applications for nuclear power plant construction permits, operating licenses, and standard plant designs.

ensuring that operating reactors adequately protect public health and safety. To do so, the staff ensures that all neces-sary actions are taken to correct inadequacies in plant design and operation that are identified from the review of operating experience, from the review bf unanticipated events, from safe-guards regulatory effectiveness reviews, from inspection findings, 4 and from NRC-sponsored research.  !

Nuclear Reactor Regulation Programs ,

The reactor inspection program is implemented in two ways:

1 (1) prescribed, scheduled routine inspections designed to evaluate j a licensee's activities, recognizing that the licensee has the primary responsibility for protection of the public health and safety.

(2) unscheduled, reactive inspections in response to problems or to assess a licensee's compliance with special requirements I imposed as a result of evaluation of events at other reactors.

/

As reorganized, the Of fice of Nuclear Reactor Regulation includes pro- \

gram oversight responsibility for inspection of all licensed activities under its Jurisdiction and the vendor inspection program; emergency pre-paredness licensing and assessment; licensing of quality assurance pro-grams; performance of independent assessments of safeguards at power reactors; and administering the Price-Anderson Act. The Office of ,

Special Projects, reporting directly to the Executive Director for )

Operations, is now responsible for managing all aspects of licensing and inspection for nuclear power-plants owned by the Tennessee Valley Authority and for the Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Plants. The respon-sibility for unresolved safety issues, generic safety issues, review of full-scope probabilistic risk assessments, advanced reactor concepts, i and development of criteria for implementing the severe accident policy l have been transferred to the Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research.

Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards Programs DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAMS The Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards (NMSS) is respons-ible for the public health, safety and safeguards licensing, inspection and environmental reviews for 'all activities regulated by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), except reactors. These responsibilities include the development and implementation of NRC policy for the 11- g censing and inspection of activities involving the use and handling of nuclear and other radioactive materials, such as uranium recovery acti-vities; fuel fabrication and fuel development; medical, industrial, f~

academic and commercial uses of radioactive isotopes; safeguards acti-vities; the transportation of nuclear materials, including certifica-tion of transport containers; out-of-reactor spent fuel storage; the safe management and disposal of low-level and high-level radioactive wastes; and the management of related decommissioning activities.

Safeguards responsibilities include developing of overall agency policy; monitoring and assessing the threat environment, including liaison with intelligence agencies as appropriate; and those licensing and inspection activities appropriate for the protection of special nuclear material at fuel facilities and during transport. NMSS identifies and takes action to control safety and safeguards issues for activities under its juris-diction, including consulting and coordinating with international, Federal, State, and local agencies.

The safety and environmental licensing and inspection programs are designed to ensure that workers, the public health and safety, and the environment are protected during both normal and off-normal operations.

These programs regulate the processing, handling, storage, and disposai  ;

of nuclear materials. They involve . health physics and radiation and j nuclear safety review and analysis of the front-end of the fuel cycle, i including uranium recovery activities; the use of licensed material in medicine, research, industry and other purposes; and the back-end of j the fuel cycle, including the management, treatment, and commercial dis- j posal of low-level and high-level wastes. Implementation of these pro-grams ensures that there will be adequate and safe facilities; trained and competent personnel; appropriate practices to control personnel exposures and environmental releases; contingency planning; and appro- y priate storage and handling of radioactive waste and related '

decommissioning.

The safeguards licensing and inspection program is designed to detect,

  • deter, and protect against threat, diversion, radiological sabotage, and theft of nuclear materials at licensed fuel cycle facilities and during transport. This program regulates activities associated with the physical security of nuclear materials in fuel facilities and during transport; the control and accountability of nuclear materials during processing and storage; the certification of containers for the tran-sport of large quantitles of radioactive material; the assessment of the domestic threat environment; and the review of the design-basis. threat 26 I

Nuclear Material Safetv and Safeguards Programs for licensed nuclear facilities. Safeguards responsibilities also in-clude activities associated with the international and foreign physical protection aspects of export / import licensing and support of the inter-9 national Atomic Energy Agency.

The NMSS programs have been strongly affected by the Uranium Mill 6 Tailings Radiation Control Act (UMTRCA) of 1978, the Low-Level Radio-9 active Waste Policy Act of 1980, as amended in 1985, and the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982. Congress has also directed that NRC regula-g tions be amended to conform to the Environmental Protection Agency

  • standards for both radiation and groundwater protection.

The UMTRCA directed the NRC to develop regulations to approve licensee mill tallings disposal plans and to license the tailings disposal. In addition, UMTRCA requires that NRC review and approve the site-by-site implementation of the Department of Energy (DOE) program for mill tail-ings remedial actions, and to eventually license possession of these sites by DOE.

The Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Act gave the States the responsi-bility to provide for disposal capacity for low-level waste generated  ;

within a State. The NRC must ensure that appropriate regulations exist j for both NRC and State licensing of disposal sites, and NRC must be pre-  !

pared to provide technical assistance to States in reaching decisions on '

disposal facilities. The Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Amendments Act of 1985 set up an aggressive timetable for States and compacts to establish new disposal facilities and for NRC to implement its substan-tial regulatory role.

The Nuclear Waste Policy Act gives a detailed approach for the long-range disposal of high-level waste. DOE has operational responsibi-lity and NRC has regulatory responsibility. This undertaking involves a complex, integrated system of waste handling, transportation, interim and retrievable storage, and ultimate deep geologic disposal of high-level radioactive waste, requiring a high certainty of acceptable en-vironmental and health impacts over thousands of years.

7 As reorganized, the Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards has oversight responsibility for the inspection of all licensed activi-ties under its jurisdiction. The responsibility for performing inde-

, pendent assessments of safeguards at power reactors has been trans-ferred to the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, and the responsi-bility for rulemaking activities has been transferred to the Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research.

i Nuclear Regulatory Research Programs DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAMS The programs of the Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research (RES) are an essential and integral part of the regulatory process. Safety research  !

supports nuclear regulation by providing defensible technical bases for regulatory action to ensure public health and safety. The program emphasizes early identification of potential problems with operating reactors and the development of criteria for the safe disposal of nuclear waste. The regulatory issues and corresponding topics of d research are programmatically grouped into seven major areas:

/

1. Aging and Degradation in Power Plants
  • A large number of reactor plants have been operating for a signifi-cant portion of their licensed life. Corrosion, radiation and thermal aging embrittlement, and fatigue have raised specific ques-tions about the continued safety and viability of many of these plants. In particular, there are concerns about the integrity of j the primary coolant pressure boundary and safety systems compon- ]

ents. Widespread and potentially serious problems have occurred. I These have included cracked piping at boiling water reaqtors, steam generator tube degradation, defective valves, relays and circuit breakers, and inadequate means for detecting and characterizing flaws in reactor vessels and piping. Although many of these ques-tions are being resolved by research and regulatory action, similar questions are likely to continue to arise. Further, as the operat-ing plants advance in age, there may be other presently un-recognized degradation mechanisms occurring. Therefore, research is needed to identify potential safety problems.

2. Complex Operational and Thermal-Hydraulic Transients Previous research on complex operational and thermal-hydraulic transients has been largely oriented toward large-break loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) issues and has reflected .an underlying assumption that thermal-hydraulic transients generally could be adequately characterized by a limiting case, the large-break LOCA.

Complex transients arising from equipment malfunctions and small-break LOCAs which have occurred have had serious safety implica- Y tions for a broad class of reactors. Because reactors are not standardized, and because the events that have occurred so far may be precursors to much more serious events that could result ,

in core damage, direct extrapolation of the safety significance of a given accident is not readily achievable. Therefore, development and maintenance of complex thermal analysis codes, as well as ex-perimental analysis of potential accident sequences and verifica- -

tion of computer codes, are required.

1 l Nuclear Regulatory Research Programs

3. Consequences and Risk from Severe Accidents The Three Mile Island 2 (TMI-2) accident emphasized the need for severe accident research to provide information for the evaluation and possible modification of NRC rules on emergency planning, reactor siting, and equipment qualification / survivability. Research is also needed to determine how containments respond to loads from hydrogen burning or detonation, and to loads from the generation of h combustible gases and/or steam explosions from molten core mate-rials falling onto the concrete basemat. Initial requirements for a . revised radioactive source term estimate have now been completeo 3 and an accompanying severe accident risk and consequences docu-ment is being prepared. The research supporting these documents has rbvealed several areas of significant uncertainty such as the chemical form of radioactive iodine, and the potential for radio-nuclide revaporization. Additional research is needed to resolve these and other uncertainties.
4. Risk And Reliability Research  !

Assessment of the probability and consequences of severe accidents  ;

remains an important objective of NRC. Significant advances have i been made in recent years in the development and, to some degree, in the application of probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) techni-  ;

ques, and in research on severe accidents. Much of the FY 1987 f effort is being devoted to research for the assessment of the risk of severe accidents and their consequences in six reference plants (N U R EG-1150), the development of computer-based, user-friendly systems for use in licensing and inspection activities, the evalua-tion of a lifecycle-oriented reliability program for use by utilities to enhance the reliability of equipment and operations -

important to safety, and the initiation of a methodology develop-ment activity to provide quantitative risk-based plant performance indicators and alert levels. The FY 1988-1989 Research effort will be directed to (a) adding one Combustion Engineering and one Babcock & Wilcox plant to the list of reference plants and com-pleting external events analyses on three of these reference plants; (b) augmenting the NUREG-1150 information by incorpor-f ating results of current severe accident research into : areas of uncertainty discussed above and incorporating the risk from ex-ternal events such as earthquakes, floods, and fires, and the o insights gained from the Chernobyl accident; (c) adapting and field testing existing risk / reliability methodologies in plant inspection, status, and operations management; and (d) augmenting and testing risk / reliability methodologies for use in resolving unresolved and generic safety issues,. and to assess advanced /

standardized reactor designs based on . state-of-the-art proven technologies.

5. S,eismic Analysis 1 With the continuing improvement in understanding geology and seis-mology, a number of older plants have been identified as being designed for seismic hazard levels that are below current criteria.

Although there are considerable seismic safety margins in present reactor designs, there is an urgent need for improved bases and methods for properly characterizing seismic hazards for plants, es-pecially those in the Eastern U.S. , and for well-validated methods h and data bases for seismic analysis that can be used to reassess the older operating plants to determine whether adequate safety margins do exist and to quantify these margins. A'

6. Nuclear Waste Disposal The research programs in this area are required to develop the methods and data bases needed to evaluate the adequacy of appli-cants' submissions to meet regulatory requirements required by law for the disposal of both high-level waste (HLW) and low-level waste (LLW). The issues faced here are at the forefront of. science in that society has never before required that hazardous rpaterials be safely isolated for the very long time periods involved. The basic I information and analytic methods must be improved to allow the {

Commission to make the required independent assessments of safety '

that the law mandates.

The two principal goals for HLW research are (1) to provide regu-latory guidance to the Department of Energy (DOE) so that its licensing application to construct a geologic repository will be complete, comprehensive, and of high quality when submitted to the NRC; and (2) to provide the technical basis needed to perform site characterization / license reviews of the HLW repository once DOE submits its application.

The goals of LLW research are to provide the technical bases and analytic tools NRC needs to carry out its responsibilities to regulate, as well as provide guidance to individual States and State compacts under the Low Level Radioactive Waste Policy Amend-ments Act (LLRWPAA) of 1985, and to develop and support the 1 i requisite regu?atory base, including facility design, waste form and package design, performance assessments, and long-term moni-toring techniques. ,

7. Safety Technology The ' safety technology program . addresses significant technical' issues related to the safety of reactor design, construction, operation, and maintenance, as well as regulatory issues related to the reactor licensing process. The major program components of safety technology are safety issues, human factors issues, advanced reactor concepts, development of risk assessment guidance, severe accident policy, and implementation of source-term related changes.

32  ;

i

k Nuclear Regulatory Research Programs The safety issues program exists to develop technical positions j that relate to the safety of nuclear power plant design, construc- l tion and operation. These issues involve conditions not likely to be acceptable over the lifetime of the plants they affect. Poten-  ;

tial safety issues are prioritized for resolution based on their 1 safety significance and cost.

4 Human factors areas are- investigated so that regulatory positions 7 and guidance can be developed. The human factors issues relate to design, operation and maintenance of nuclear power reactors. These N issues include emergency operating procedures and maintenance procedures.

Safety and policy issues are identified and resolved in the ,

advanced reactor area. Work will focus on the implementation of i the Advanced Reactor Policy Statement and interaction, coordination and review of DOE's program to develop potential advanced reactor i concepts. j Risk assessment provides overall risk and safety perspectives on .

plant design and operation. The program includes generic analyses i and reviews of full-scope probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) 'sub-mittals, and evaluates, modifies and verifies computer codes used to perform analytical calculations.

The severe accident and source term programs are intertwined. The severe accident program exists to review and resolve issues asso-ciated with nuclear power plant accidents more severe than design-basis accidents. The programs also review, evaluate and develop source term and consequence analysis techniques to assess the potential regulatory impact of severe accidents.

NRC must maintain technical expertise for future resolution of regula-tory issues and to meet the demands of new emerging technical issues.

This requires research. The Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research works to establish specialized scientific and engineering areas of ex-pertise at selected national laboratories. Having these areas of ex-

' pertise at the laboratories streamlines the execution and interpreta-tion of research results. It helps NRC maintain the ability to respond to technical operating problems having impacts on safety.

As reorganized, the Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research now has the new functions of unresolved safety issues, generic safety issues, ad-vanced reactor concepts, review of full-scope P R A's , implementation of severe accident policy, essentially all rulemaking, and regulatory cost-benefit analysis.

Program Support Funds and Staff The Program Technical Support Program provides direct technicM support to agency programs. At headquarters this Program is supported by the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards (ACRS), the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Panel (ASLBP), the Atomic Safety and Licensing Appeal Panel (ASLAP), and the Office of Investigations (01) . These offices were not affected by the recent NRC reorganization.

Technical support is provided at both headquarters and the regions by the Offices of General Counsel (GC), Governmental and Public Affairs (GPA), Enforcement, and the Office for Analysis and Evaluation of Op-erational Data (AEOD). The Office of the General Counsel was not af-fected by the recent NRC reorganization. The Office of Governmental and Public Affairs combines the former Offices of Congressional' Af-fairs, Public Affairs, State Programs, and International Prog rams.

This new Office is responsible for NRC relations with. Congress, the States and other governmental organizations, as well as the interna-g tional nuclear community, the general public, and the news media.

The enforcement responsibilities previously assigned to the Office.

of Inspection and Enforcement are now assigned . to the Office of En-forcement (OE). The role of the Office for Analysis and Evaluation of Operational Data has been expanded and strengthened to' include the review, analysis, and evaluation of reactor plant performance, and. management of the incident response program, the specialized technical. training program, and the Committee to . Review Generic Re-quirements. The allocation of program support funds ' and staff to each office follows.
