A new approach to backfitting nuclear power plants in accordance with Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) rules could lower costs and make backfitting procedures less unpredictable. The NRC described the approach in a series of regional workshops with utilities. The author explains how and when a backfit analysis is to be made, how priorities are set, exceptions, and the role assigned to the industry and the NRC. Disagreement between NRC and utilities over backfitting will not lead to retribution against the utility. Instead, the objective is to bring industry more into a partnership role. 2 tables.
