In accordance with the 1988 amendment to the Act, the NRC's Office of the Inspector General (OIG)§was established on April 15, 1989, as an independent and objective unit to conduct and supervise audits§and conduct investigations relating to NRC's programs and operations. The purpose of OIG's audits and§investigations is to prevent and detect fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement, and promote economy,§efficiency, and effectiveness in NRC programs and operations. In addition, OIG reviews existing and§proposed regulations, legislation, and directives, and provides comments, as appropriate, regarding any§significant concerns.§§The NRC Staff and NRC Contractors create reports or brochures on regulatory decisions. These§are results of research, results of incident investigations, and other technical and administrative§information. This is one of those documents.
