Comments

The staff welcomes discussion on the following questions during the meeting:•What elements of the Part 50 licensing process should be aligned with the Part 52 licensing process to achieve equivalent outcomes under both new reactor application review processes? What elements of the Part 50 licensing process should not be aligned with the Part 52 licensing process? •What elements of the Part 52 licensing process should be changed to address difficulties encountered during previous licensing reviews and provide more effective and efficient reviews for future applications? •What transformational changes can be implemented in the Part 52 licensing process, which would improve effectiveness and efficiency within the framework of reasonable assurance of adequate protection of safety and security?
