NRC reports mixed progress in achieving the three outcomes GAO reviewed. To measure performance for the three outcomes, NRC established the same four goals: one relates to safety and three relate to such nonsafety issues as public confidence, regulatory burden, and organizational enhancements. Although NRC's strategies for the safety-related performance goal outcomes seem clear and reasonable, GAO could not assess NRC's performance for the three nonsafety performance goals because NRC only recently developed and reported strategies for them in its fiscal year 2002 performance plan. Since NRC has had limited experience in applying the strategies and measures for the three nonsafety goals, it may need to revise them after it completes various planned evaluations over the next three years. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-01-760/html/GAOREPORTS-GAO-01-760.htm GAO-01-760 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-GAO-01-760 Other Written Product GAO-01-760; Nuclear Regulatory Commission: Status of Achieving Key Outcomes and Addressing Major Management Challenges; Nuclear reactors Nuclear waste management Performance measures Reporting requirements Personnel management Strategic planning GPRA Government Performance and Results Act
