MEMORANDUM FOR:

John M. Montgomery Deputy Regional Administrator FROM:

Michael Runyan Reactor Inspector, Engineering Branch Division of Reactor Projects

SUBJECT:

COMMENTS ON THE DRAFT REGION V REAllCNMENT STUDY (1)

Additional benefits of Option 2 not mentioned in the report:

(a)

This option would result in all four NRC regions and headquarters being within one time zone difference, resulting in better communications and coordination.

- (b)

Region-based inspector objectivity would be improved because inspectors would be travelling to 12 reactor sites as opposed to 4 or 8 under the current alignment.

(c)

This option best anticipates the impending shutdown of WNP-2.

(2)

Additional consideration for Option 4:

(a)

Loss of geographical 8% pay for Region V employees will be substantially offset by lack of a Texas state income tax.

Michael Runyan Reactor Inspector, Engineering Branch Division of Reactor Projects
