~ Preparation of Emergency Operating Procedures, and Temporary Instructions, l

verification and validation in the procedure generation process was also discussed.
NRR plans for the future were briefly discussed. These plans include:
1.
Inspection of all plants not previously inspected under Temporary Instruction 2515/92; 2.
NUMARC/INP0 workshops on E0P development, revision and maintenance to.be scheduled in the near future.
3.
Issuance of NUREG that describes the staff's E0P inspection findings j
