IN RESPONSE, PLEASE
REFER TO: M010117B

January 25, 2001

The Commission was briefed by the NRC staff on the status of nuclear reactor safety. The Commission commended the staff for their accomplishments in this area and encouraged them to continue the hard work on the many challenges that are ahead. The staff should keep the Commission informed of any problems that develop in the license renewal area that could result in delays in meeting the schedules.

The Commission would like the staff's recommendations as to how the meetings concerning the various arenas might be better structured so as to facilitate the efficient survey of the challenges and issues confronting the staff. The staff should propose to the Commission changes to the content and format to improve the value of future meetings for the Commission and the public.

Future briefings should include a discussion of the significant issues and a discussion of the policy matters on which the staff expects to request Commission direction over the subsequent year. In future meetings, the staff should also describe how emergent issues (and trends) are monitored, forecasted, and managed.
