Dear Mr. Lochbaum:
~
l l
I am responding to your e-mail of August 4,1998, regarding the recent report of the NRC Office l
of the inspector General on NRC Project Managers. You suggested that we consider aligning
[
project managers (PMs) in the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR) based on reactor type a
L or age rather than the current alignment to the regional organization. You offered that this may.
l
- allow for efficiencies in the organization sur ' as PMs being assigned to more than one site.
l r
l As you may be aware, a number of options are being considered for the proposed reorganization of NRR. Key goals are to improve the efficiency and effectivene'ss of the reactor licensing
. process and oversight of reactor licensees. We appreciate you providing your views as a
. stakeholder in this important matter. Your thoughts will be considered as we move forward.
Sincerely, 1
