MEMORANDUM TO:	William D. Travers Executive Director for Operations
	/RA/
FROM:	John T. Larkins, Executive Director Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards

SUBJECT:

SECY-00-0071, DRAFT REGULATORY GUIDE (DG-1095), "GUIDANCE FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF 10 CFR 50.59 (CHANGES, TESTS, AND EXPERIMENTS)"

During the 469^th meeting of the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards, February 3-5, 2000, the Committee met with representatives of the NRC staff and the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) to discuss NEI document 96-07, "Guidelines for 10 CFR 50.59 Evaluations." During its 471^st meeting, April 5-7, 2000, the Committee considered the subject draft Regulatory Guide (DG-1095), that endorses, with clarifications, NEI 96-07.

Since the remaining items regarding this matter are process issues, the Committee decided not to review the proposed draft Regulatory Guide. The Committee will consider reviewing the proposed final version of this Regulatory Guide after reconciliation of the public comments.
