BY THE US GENERAL ACCOUNTING Report To The Honorable Marilyn Lloyd /A0<-o Chairman, Subcommittee On Energy Research And Production Committee On Science And Technology House Of Representatives Nuclear Safety Research Responsiveness To Regulatory Needs And Coordination The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) spends about half of its budget, or about $210 million, on safety research to support nuclear facility licensing and regulation. The Department of Energy also conducts research and development of nuclear tech- nologies being licensed and regulated by NRC. GAO found that NRC has not documented that its research has been responsive to its regulatory needs. NRC also recognized this problem and developed and began operat- ing a system to periodically provide NRC management with oversight over its re- search projects. GAO also found that the coordinating techniques have helped keep DOE and NRC aware of each other's re- search efforts but that intentional duplica- tion occasionally occurs due to the two agencies' different roles. ,0 Sb1I '()A N 122879 GAO/RCED-84-15 NOVEMBER 15, 1983 RELEASED -- t OFFICE y
