Please be aware that it appears the NRC has taken an unusual step of requesting public comment on SECY 2019-67, which is focused on proposed enhancements to the Regulatory Oversight Program (ROP). Comments are due by October 7, 2019. Please see 84FR38675. We previously reported on this SECY, which was provided by NRC Staff to the Commission, notwithstanding no requirement to do so for several of the proposed revisions. This action may have been prompted by a July 15 letter to NRC Chairman Kristine Svinicki jointly signed by the Chairman of the Committee on Energy and Commerce; Chairman of the Committee on Energy and Commerce subcommittee on Energy; Chairwoman, Committee on Appropriations; and the Chairwoman of the Committee on Appropriations Subcommittee on Energy and Water Development, and Related Agencies. We will continue to monitor developments regarding ROP modification initiatives.
