Recommendations

Develop a mechanism for conducting self-assessments and
capturing lessons learned for IMPEP on a regular basis.

Develop formal procedural guidance for identifying what
information is needed about Agreement State programs and
materials licensees in the event that an Agreement State is no
longer capable of adequately performing its function of
protecting public health and safety for an indeterminate period
of time.

Develop a set of procedures that standardizes communications
from NRC to the Agreement States.

Develop a standardized data collection process that can be
used as the basis of an information sharing tool on a national
level.

Revise the applicable IMPEP procedure(s) to include a review
of Agreement State events that are not recorded in NMED for
an analysis of whether they should have been included in
NMED.
