SUBJECT:

9:00 A.M.,

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1989, COMMIS-SIONERS' CONFERENCE ROOM, ONE WHITE FLINT NORTH, ROCKVILLE, MARYLAND (OPEN TO PUBLIC ATTENDANCE)

The Commission was briefed by the staff on the status of maintenance initiatives for nuclear power plants and the schedule for completion of activities.

The Commission requested that the staff not forward its recommendation on the revised policy statement on maintenance at nuclear power plants until it has addressed the comments by ACRS on the same subject.

ACRS comments are scheduled to be submitted to the Commission by October 11, 1989.

The paper should also incorporate enforcement criteria on maintenance activities, as requested in SRM on SECY-89-143.

(SECY Suspense:

The Commission also requested the staff to recommend to the Commission proposed criteria to be used in determining when industry progress in the area of maintenance would be sufficient to obviate a need for rulemaking.
