NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION


Risk-Informed Corrective Action Program

AGENCY:  Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

ACTION:  Notice of public meeting.

SUMMARY:  The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has instructed its staff to 
explore potential areas where regulations can be made more risk-

interest involves the ability of licensee's to risk-monitor and risk-
prioritize their corrective action programs. This noticed meeting is to 
discuss the computerized program developed by Bill Vesely and 
implemented by at least one utility, (PP&L--Susquehanna) to risk-inform 
their corrective action program. The meeting will focus on the 
program's use and application, associated results and findings, and 
potential for application in this and other areas of the regulatory 
process.

provide for an exchange of information related to the licensee's 
corrective action programs. Persons other than NRC staff and NRC
