COMMISSION VOTING RECORD c
DECISION ITEM:
SECY-97-287 TITLE:
FINAL REGULATORY GUIDANCE ON RISK-INFORMED REGULATION: POLICY ISSUES The Commission (with Chairman Jackson and Commissioner Dicus agreeing and Commissioners Diaz and McGaffigan agreeing in part and disagreeing in part) approved the staff's recommendations 1) to allow very small increases in risk independent of the baseline calculated CDF and LERF; 2) for the treatment of uncertainties related to PRA results; and 3) to conduct further assessment of acceptance guidelines for temporary changes to plant configurations. The Commission has not approved the staff's recommendation that consideration of possible additional shutdown risk acceptance guidelines be undertaken as part of the research effort, but rather accepted use of CDF and LERF guidelines for both power and shutdown operations.
This Record contains a summary of voting on this matter together with the individual vote sheets, views and comments of the Commissioners, and the SRM of March 19, 1998.
