NRC Reactor Oversight Process (ROP)

Performance Indicators (PIs)

  • PIs consist of a variety plant data submitted by the licensees each quarter that demonstrates the reliability and availability of plant equipment and processes
  • Verified by inspection

NRC Reactor Oversight Process (ROP)

Column I Column II Column III Column IV Column V Licensee Regulatory Degraded Multiple / Unacceptable Response Response Cornerstone Repetitive Performance Degraded Cornerstone

  • NRC Action Matrix
  • Licensee Response column is baseline inspection (issues of very low safety significance)
  • Increase in number of findings of significance moves licensee to the right in the matrix
  • Moving to the right leads to increased NRC Oversight (Supplemental Inspections, higher level engagement with plant management)
