Security Enforcement Policy Change

["Joseph P. Ring" <joseph_ring@harvard.edu>]

I understand that the NRC issued a new enforcement policy this past Monday
(April 27).  The policy should be available on the NRC Web site on May 11.
The NRC makes policy changes internally for two weeks so the staff can
become familiar with it prior to general release.

The document reportedly contains a lot of the material recommeded by the
Howard Hughes Medical Institute and NRC/Harvard workshops from nearly two
years ago.

This is a good example of how we can work together with our regulators to
effect reasonable and appropriate policy.
