COMMISSIONER DIAZ' COMMENTS ON SECY-98-101 Based on my review of SECY-98-101 and the May 11,1998, letter from the ACRS to Chairman Jackson, I approve the staff's recommendation to defer modification of the Safety Goal Policy Statement for one year and provide the final recommendations to the Commission by March 31, 1999.
The revised policy statement should remain a high-level document describing the principles consistent with the Commission's views on "how safe is safe enough." The staff should be mindful that the revised Safety Goal Policy Statement needs to be consistent with the PRA Policy Statement, and should not include too many quantitative guidelines which would make the safety goal policy statement overly prescriptive. For the near term, I suggest that the staff clearly define the specific areas to be modified from the existing pclicy statement and publish it for public comment.
