NRC INSPECTION REPORT NO. 50-146/2003-201
Dear Mr. Kuehn:
This letter refers to the on-site inspection conducted on March 26 - 28, 2003 by NRC and a NRC contractor at your Saxton Nuclear Experimental Facility and telephone conversations held on April 9, April 23, May 1, May 13, June 18, and July 9, 2003 to discuss your Final Status Survey (FSS) report for the Containment Vessel Interior, 774 Elevation and Below. This survey unit is the first in a series to be released in accordance with the Saxton License Termination Plan (LTP) approved by the NRC on March 28, 2003 The inspection included an in-process review of your radiological FSS survey. In addition, NRC conducted an independent survey in parallel with your survey and collected samples from the piles of processed backfill for laboratory analysis.
The NRC inspector conducted selective examinations of procedures and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observations of activities in progress. The inspector determined that the Final Status Survey was conducted in accordance with the recommendations of the Multi-Agency Radiation Survey and Site Investigation Manual (MARSSIM) and requirements in the LTP. The results demonstrated that the survey unit met the release criteria established by the LTP.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRCs "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRCs document system (ADAMS).
