Nuclear Byproduct Material Risk Review Group

The Nuclear Byproduct Material Risk Review Group, consisting of representatives from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and an Agreement State, has been formed in response to Commission direction in a Staff Requirements Memorandum (SRM) dated April 15, 1997. The SRM instructed the staff to reexamine the applicability of risk-informed, performance-based or risk-informed, less prescriptive approaches to regulation of nuclear material. The working group will meet at NRC Headquarters in Rockville, Maryland from July 21 through July 24, 1997, in order to refine plans for a multi-dimensional characterization of the risk associated with nuclear byproduct material and to develop a statement of work for contractor evaluation of that risk. DATES AND TIMES: The working group will meet in closed session on July 21 and 22, 1997, from 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., to develop the statement of work. The working group will meet in open session on July 23, 1997, from 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and on July 24, 1997, from 7:30 a.m. to 12:00 noon, to refine plans for a multi-dimensional characterization of the risk associated with nuclear byproduct material.
