In Staff Requirements Memorandum – SECY 16-0009, “Recommendations Resulting from the Integrated Prioritization and Re-Baselining of Agency Activities,” (ML16104A158) the Commission approved the NRC staff recommendation to discontinue the formal mid-cycle assessment process beginning in calendar year 2017. This will be the final mid-cycle assessment letter. The staff will continue to conduct assessment reviews and communicate changes in the assessment of licensee performance quarterly, and will also issue end-of-cycle assessment letters.
