Applying Data and Risk-Informed Principles in Regulatory Decision-Making 8

Artificial Intelligence

Conducting Robust Risk-Informed, Safety Focused Reviews and Inspections Low safety High safety Clearly within the licensing basis Address issue with appropriate tools such as:

  • Enforcement
  • Order
  • Inspect licensee corrective actions Clearly within the licensing basis Address finding/violation with appropriate tools (i.e., either comes into compliance or change the licensing basis):
  • Inspect licensee corrective actions (e.g., 50.59, PI&R)
  • Change the licensing basis (LAR, relief, exemptions, etc.)
  • Assess adequacy of the requirement (i.e.,

rulemaking)

Not clearly within the licensing basis Evaluate issue to determine regulatory actions with tools suchas:

  • 50.54(f) or generic communications
  • Backfitting
  • Generic issue process
  • LIC-504 and TIA Not clearly within the licensing basis but clearly low safety significance Exit:
  • Document decision
  • Make public record 9
