NUREG 0933: Revision History
Section 2. Task Action Plan Items
This section contains all Task Action Plan items documented in NUREG-0371 [1] and NUREG-0471 [2] as well as all USIs documented in other NRC publications. Items A-1 through A-41 are listed in NUREG-0371[3]
and all items with prefixes "B," "C," and "D" are listed in NUREG-0471. [4] USIs identified after publication of
NUREG-0371 [5] and NUREG-0471 [6] are listed in the following documents: NUREG-0510 [7] (A-42 through
A-44); NUREG-0705 [8] ( A-45 through A-48); and NUREG-1090 [9] (A-49). A total of 142 items are listed in this section.
The Generic Issues Tracking System (GITS) Report [10] issued on December 17, 1981, provided a status report on the majority of the 142 items as well as their classification into four categories: Environmental, Licensing
Improvement, Safety, and USI. The safety issues identified in the GITS Report [11] provided the basis for all prioritization work contained in this section. The lead responsibility and a summary of the findings for each item listed in this section can be found in Table II of the Introduction.
