- 2. What is the impact on internal and external stakeholders of not updating the RG for the known issues, in terms of anticipated numbers of licensing and inspection activities over the next several years?
The staff anticipates a potentially large number of licensing actions in the next several years. Therefore, the impact may be significant in terms of efficiency and effectiveness of licensee applications and our reviews.
- 3. What is an estimate of the level of effort needed to address identified issues in terms of full-time equivalent (FTE) and contractor resources? An estimate of the effort needed to correct the identified issues is between 0.1 full-time equivalent (FTE) and 0.2 FTE.
