Wouldn't the INPO rating system be similar to the NRC's Reactor Oversight Process and be similarly available to the public?

INPO is a private, utility run organization and not subject to the 'Government in the Sunshine' laws.
ToadSuck:
At my plant the INPO rating is posted in our conference room, but in big bold letters it says that this information is PRIVATE and not for transmittal. I don't remember the exact verbage, but it basically says don't even share within the company....
Higgs:
The public doesn't have access to INPO. Like was mentioned, it is a private organization formed from within the industry.
That said, the INPO and NRC ratings are often tied pretty close together. You won't ever find an INPO 1 plant in NRC column 4. If anything, the NRC lags INPO a bit because INPO is supposed to be identifying areas for improvement before the NRC comes in with their version of "help."
wlrun3@aol.com:
It looks like NRC ROP columns 1 through 5 are very similar to INPO ratings 1 through 5.
RDTroja:
Similar processes, yes. Different organizations and different rules. INPO is private and answers only to the sponsoring utilities.
