NRC Form 898 Topical Report Completeness Determination signed.pdf
- Ross,
Attached please find the completed form for the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff completeness determination for Topical Report, Product-Based Operator Licensing Framework.
The staff has determined that the submittal includes sufficient information for the staff to begin to perform its technical safety review and any supplemental information needed can be collected through a request for additional information and/or audit. The staff has identified a proposed date to issue a draft safety evaluation of March 11, 2026.
In its initial review, the staff identified that some of the approaches proposed by Oklo (e.g., application of the term controls, licensing operators to a product rather than a specific facility) introduce policy issues that may present a challenge to an efficient review. However, modifications to the licensing approach described in the topical report could support implementation within the regulatory framework. During the review, the staff will discuss the feasibility, efficiency, and timeline of various regulatory approaches pursuant to achieving the overall goals of the topical report.
