MEMORANDUM TO:      William D. Travers
Executive Director for Operations
FROM: Annette L. Vietti-Cook, Secretary /RA/
SUBJECT: STAFF REQUIREMENTS - SECY-00-0083 - PROPOSED RULE:REVISION OF 10 CFR PART 55, "OPERATORS' LICENSES," REGARDING THE USE OF SIMULATION FACILITIES IN OPERATOR LICENSING

The Commission has approved publication in the Federal Register of the notice of proposed rulemaking regarding the use of simulation facilities in operator licensing. The staff should revise the Congressional letters so that they clearly lay out: 1) how the proposed rule would affect licensees, 2) the impetus for the change, and 3) why, from a safety perspective, the NRC is comfortable with the proposed changes.
