 Hi, I'm Allison McFarland, Chairman of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission. The industry has been very busy in the last year. We've issued the first ever combined operating licenses for new reactors. We've also stood up a Waste Confidence Directorate in response to waste confidence decision by the courts. We have continued the work that we've been doing on the Fukushima Lessons Learned, following through on orders that we issued and considering new rules and regulations for reactor facilities. And this has been very important work. And then finally, on the international piece, we've had a number of international meetings, important international meetings, but maybe most significantly we had the first ever international conference on nuclear security that we hosted here this past November. When I came to the job, I was told by a variety of people that the staff were excellent, hardworking, dedicated, and frankly that's exactly what I found. I found an incredibly hardworking, intelligent, dedicated group of people who are really strongly interested in upholding the mission of the agency, which is ensuring public health and safety. I would like to thank them very much for all their hard work and dedication to the job here. They're serving their country, they're serving their fellow citizens, they're helping ensure that we are safe and secure in terms of our nuclear power plants, on our nuclear facilities, and nuclear materials, and I think they're doing a fantastic job. People have asked me often what surprised me most, and frankly the honest answer is going out to the reactors, meeting the resident inspectors, and seeing how really they're dedicated to the mission of the agency. That they are really separate from the licensee, they don't have lunch with them, they don't interact socially with them, they really are looking out for the best interests of the public in ensuring that the licensee is doing what they're supposed to. Well, I'm looking forward to continuing to work closely with my colleagues on the commission. I think we've established a good working relationship. Continued work on the waste confidence decision is very important, in 2013 it's very important that we keep up the momentum that we began, same with Fukushima lessons learned. We have to make sure that we keep up that momentum, that we continue to work through our tier two and tier three activities, and then finally I think it's important to really start to reach out to the public, to make sure that our internal communications are going well as well, so to pay attention to communication. I think it's important to first of all make sure that we seek public input in a variety of forms through public meetings and written communication, but that we also make a concerted effort to integrate those views into our own work. I think it's important that this be a, to the degree it can be a collaborative process with the public. And I think it's important that we continue our values, our internal values of open collaborative work environment and extend that to the outside, that we make sure that all our documents are transparent, easily accessible, easily readable, that we make sure that we ourselves are as accessible as we can be. I would like to see us move up the ladder if we can in terms of the best places to work. We're now in third place in the federal family and I'd like to see us move back up towards one and I think we need to do some homework on that and acknowledge some of the issues that were raised in the different surveys and work towards making this the best place to work in the federal government. I'm Allison McFarland and thank you for watching.
