John C.

SUBJECT:

STAFF RE0DIREMENTS - SECY-97-149 - NUCLEAR SAFETY RESEARCH REVIEW COMMITTEE (NSRRC)

The Commission has approved Option 2 - transfer of the research advisory function to the ACRS.

The Commiscion believes that the 3 FTE cut in the ACRS FY 98 budget can be partially offset by the 1 FTE transferred with the NSRRC function.

The ACRS should take an active role in reviewing ongoing Research program initiatives, such as those discussed in SECY-97-075 and SECY-97-167.

In this role, the ACRS should examine the need, scope, and balance of the reactor safety research program.

The ACRS should also consider how well the Office of Research i

anticipates research needs and how it is positioned for the changing environment, and recommend whether the NSRRC function is still needed.

(ACRS)

(SECY Suspen"e 6/1/98)

The staff should forward letters to the members of the NSRRC informing the Committee of the Commission's decision.

O 4 SM SECY NOTE:

THIS SRM, SECY-97-149, AND THE COMMISSION VOTING RECORD CONTAINING THE VOTE SHEETS OF ALL COMMISSIONERS WILL BE MADE PUBLICLY-AVAILABLE 5 WORKING DAYS FROM THE.DATE OF THIS SRM.
