SUBJECT:

LETTER NOMINATING NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION STAFF TO AMERICAN NUCLEAR SOCIETY WORKING GROUP 19.5

Dear Mr. Smetana:

I would like to nominate Mr. Albert Hsieh as the authorized U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) representative to the American Nuclear Society (ANS) Working Group ANS-19.5, Requirements for Reference Reactor Physics Measurement. Mr. Hsieh is a Reactor Systems Engineer in the NRC Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research and brings the necessary education and experience to support the activities of ANS-19.5.

In accordance with the Office of Management and Budget Circular No. A-119, "Federal Participation in the Development and Use of Voluntary Consensus Standards and in Conformity Assessment Activities," dated January 27, 2016, the participation on a committee of an NRC-authorized representative does not connote agency agreement with, or endorsement of, decisions reached by the committee, or of standards approved and published as a result of the committees efforts. Agency representatives participating on consensus standards developing groups will, to the extent possible, ascertain the views of the agency on matters of interest and will express views that are consistent with established agency views.

However, the NRCs endorsement of these standards, if desired by the NRC, would be part of a separate activity such as incorporation by reference into rulemaking or endorsement in an NRC regulatory guide.

Correspondence should be addressed to:

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ATTN: Mr. Albert Hsieh Washington, D.C. 20555 Telephone: (301) 415-2184 E-mail: albert.hsieh@nrc.gov

A. Smetana 2

Thank you very much for providing the NRC with the opportunity to participate in the work of your committee.

Sincerely, Signed by Sampson, Michele on 12/18/23 Michele Sampson, NRC Standards Executive Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research
